The weather won tonight. Rovers got our first clean sheet since 25th November. That's the positive and another point on the board

Dolan with a great chance there

Dolan and Buckley coming on for Garrett and Gallagher

Moran coming on for Ayari

no

Correct. My post was aiming at the decision making in appointing him and then sacking him so early. They clearly didn't get who they wanted to replace Mowbray

Understanding of the role. Understanding of the working structure and circumstances. Far too many people act like experts and so easy to do so. I have listened to a number of interviews on training ground guru youtube channel with director of football and learn and develop the understanding of the role. I know a plenty of Them thanks. Given the number of podcasts and interviews I have watched over the last few months. Stockport DoF is Simon Wilson. Salford City DoF is Chris Casper. I named those 2 clubs in an earlier post.

Thanks for reply. Much appreciated Ian.. So around £40m to 80m then. That's £40m to buy the club and training ground. £20m for running cost plus extra for Stadium improvement and training ground improvements. Need a good CEO who has commercial background plus a good head of Commercial and Marketing would be a must

No answer to simple questions posed? Give Eustace the benefit of the doubt? On what? What experience have you got in a Football DoF role? He has been a DoF for nearly 2 years.. So who would replace him then? Any names?.

We were 7th at that time. Things look good at the time. Ennis has gone and somehow we got 500k for him. Did you miss that transfer? 🤔🫡

Good luck Roy. Good manager overall.

Completely different type of transfer and someone at Rovers ballsed up the paperwork

How much do you think it would cost to Buy Rovers(including the training ground) and run it for the first year? 60 to 70 million pounds? Commercial operations at Rovers isn't good enough and we should be able to get a better and more lucrative shirt sponsors surely?

Rate Broughton? He has done very well in shit circumstances. Give Eustace the benefit of the doubt? On what? What experience have you got in a Football DoF role? He has been a DoF for nearly 2 years.. So who would replace him then? Any names?

That's how the free agent market works. Nothing unfair about it

Buckley on bench tomorrow Going for Rovers 2 nil away win. Szmodics and Gallagher with the goals

Crazy decision again by Sunderland

No I don't get to many away games for various personal reasons but not down any financial, Cos who is head coach , CEO or owners. I have no personal problem but his comments on Eustace not being this or that, or that we need "aggressive, hard bastard who takes no prisoners" head coach. I asked how did he not know Eustace is like that behind the scenes(which got no answer btw) and I commented on what Eustace is like on the touchline and shouting out instructions and demand more from the players in the 3 games he has been on the touchline for Rovers

Correct That's all down to age Mercer, can't help it I'm not 40 yet. Rovers are massive part of my life and I continue to be so. I will attend every home game and so away games. If it isn’t for you fine but no reason to lecture me Never infers anything of the sort, but I was there and Seen what Eustace is likr on the touchline.

So you weren't there yesterday. That's all I was asking Mercer. No need for any lectures from towards given I will continue to support my team through the good and bad times No questions asked Mercer. Rovers till I die

Firstly thought we were talking players not managers. And how do you know Eustace isnt hard and aggressive behind the scenes? He is very demand and constant shouts instructions from the touchline. Guess you didn't see that yesterday.

We were much better defensively from open play. A mad 5 mins cost us 2 points but plenty of positives to take Brittain was very good yesterday actually in the point we got there which you thought we wouldn't get Living in the past again Mercer. Football has moved on

What you seems to forget here is when JDT came in last season he made solid defensive and we develop our attacking style as the season went on. Eustace is doing the same but we are a scrap at the minute and results has to come first. Funny enough, You asked me for my shortlist to replace JDT and Eustace was on that list. On Big Sam, I didn't pilloried for the first 18 months but after that he wanted to leave us for a job in Dubai and his football didn't develop at all where someone like Mark Hughes or JDT style did. That's what I think Eustace will so.

You never learn Mercer. Predicted Rovers to lose Preston and guess what we didn't. Another loss for the Mercer's betting account.

there is quite a number of fans in the Blackburn end didn't like JDT's style of football
