Yes it was me. If I remember correctly what I said was, I would spend on 3 players. Target man Matt Smith to help to play the same way when Graham was injury or out of form. Ben Osborn and Konsa were the other 2 targets. That's not to say that I never Rated BBD cos I did but wanted other players to heob

I've read plenty of football articles on different footballing sites and listen to football podcasts and watch football podcasts. I'm not going to want JDT or GB to leave their current job here -

Jon Dahl Tomasson - Sweden coach

I don't think the squad is super thin at all. So we have agree to disagree. Morton and Garrett are defensive midfielders. Right back, Brittain is first choice with Carter as back then Buckley or Travis are back ups We have some really good young players coming through and I would used them rather than block their pathway into our first team squad. We have to disagree on agree on this. -

Wrong. I pick Hirst cos I think there is player there just like I said about BBD a few years ago -
I thought Jake Garrett had a really good game and its someone I would be looking to get involved in the first team squad soon. Can tackle, pass and scored a good goal on Wednesday. Markanday is someone who has talent as he shown with that volley but reading JDT's comments today he wants more from him off the ball which I can understand

very bad idea from the EFL and will only damage stadium attendances and the EFL should be looking at ways to make games cheaper like a price cap of 25 pounds for away games or making prices for kids under 16's are a pound a game and 20 pounds for season tickets for them. Ian Pearce is already the head of recruitment at WBA and has been for 4 years now, From the article on the athletic website it reports that Bruce and Gourlay signed players they know which I think was the wrong move by them. They should have used Ian Pearce more in transfers and I would give him the DoF role there. I think his style worked with the players for only so long, but I think the Bruce appointment was a massive problem and If I was WBA fan, I would want Carlos Corberan or Scott Parker. -
Sam Szmodics-Your thoughts?

Do you think I'm bothered about me being outnumbered? On Dack, I not against him as person or player but I want to see Rovers press high and from the front plus win the ball back high. We done it in certain games like Watford at home for an example. I don't think Dack can do this regular anymore since his injuries which is a shame for him, but he can still have a role here. He will always be loved by the fans and rightly so after his major part he played in the first 2 seasons here. really? He has made 11 appearances so far this season and played 547 minutes of first team football so he will know plenty about the 10 role and what he wants that role when we played with it It's a squad game and We have to play different formations during the season. Most teams do this now. Players need to be adaptable and capable of this if that was the case, do you think it would have been leak by now to the media? JDT has been asked several times about the Dack situation and he answered the question everytime. There is more correlation than most of us have considering what we all do for jobs, but we all have opinions on football and tactics, etc from being passionate and dedicate Rovers fans and football fans -

I don't think we should have accepted any low offers for BBD. On Rothwell, I think he was always going to leave here this past summer. I don't think our squad is thin at all and on Hirst Its a loan to buy so its try before we buy situation. I'm sure Rovers DoF and head of recruitment are scouting and looking at players to replace in terms of striker and left winger to replace BBD with for the summer if he does leave. I do think we need to know what BBD wants to do and is he looking to sign pre contract with Spanish club to move there next summer. If that is the case, then fair enough but Rovers need to know the situation in the coming weeks. We were never offered 10 million straight cash, Fulham was 6 mil with potential add ons of 4 mil, plus 2 offers of 8.4 million pounds from Sevilla and Nice. You would accept a low offer for our best attacking player and goalscorer on the cheap. Plus finding 2 replacements for him and bringing them in. Also, how late the offers were coming in and the fact that BBD wasn't pushing to leave Rovers. I still think we able to get to agree a new contract with him. Yes we did have a healthy budget in the summer and we probably have money -

chaddyrovers replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I would imagine so. The same Allardyce that want to leave Rovers for middle East club. No we don't need to get rid of JDT or Broughton at all. It's time people like you actually give them time and patience. The director of football and head coach structure is exactly what we need at our club. You were against Broughton from moment one. Simple as He kept Lowe, Benson and Johnson on but JDT did bring Remy and Rosen in. Plus other backroom staff have come in. So clearly JDT is doing something right and things aren't as bad as some on here would led us to believe. -

Enjoying the wins not the defeats, but the fact this is new start for the club and Rovers have been very open about what the project and the fact we need to give JDT time and patience. Sadly some fans won't give this. Rome wasn't built in a day. what a laughable comment that is now! You have been anti Broughton ever since he was appointed. You never gave him a chance from minute 1! I've said it time after time Dack will leave in January and I said on Saturday to a Rovers fans on Saturday at Ewood. More OTT reaction again from certain fans who don't understand that JDT needs time and patience from fans. Look at Farke at Norwich as prime example or what Corberan did last season at Huddersfield taking them to Playoffs after a mid-table finish the season before. sacking JDT when he only had 14 games and we are 7th. Thankfully Rovers will back him and as Sky commentator kept saying Rovers haven't demanding JDT gets us top 6 this season which I think is right cos I see this season has transition season for the playing squad, JDT and the entire football club -

poor performance with unable to put a series of passes or even create anything of note. The players should be doing a hell of alot better than this. No stand out players and plenty of poor performances. Attacking wise we couldn't put the final pass or cross in. 2 shots all game isn't good enough for me. Would make a series of player changes for Saturday game at Boro. -

Rovers need to increase the tempo and as we seen from a couple of decent moments we had that we cut through Wigan defence. I keep mentioning the tempo thing every game cos we haven't been good enough. Surprised to see Hedges off. -

I don't know about them being skint, but I was reading an article on the athletic website which it was saying their recruitment process and policy was based on who Bruce and their CEO knew in the main which I think is a one of the problems there. They need a proper structure and recruitment structure in place. Their CEO need to bring in DoF, Head coach and given their head of recruitment Ian Pearce more of a role in recruitment, maybe even appoint him as DoF. -

I would like to know why you think this? For me, we have improved centre back and right back with the signings of Hyam and Brittain. I don't we weren't weaker in centre midfield than last season. For me, JDT is upgrade on Mowbray. Gav, you might not mention Mowbray directly but of course it's about Mowbray time here -

The meetings wasn't changing anything specific without but answers to the question I've posed. I did find out some very interesting things. I did put my opinions to him. No I didn't put my ideas on ST or tickets prices to him as that wasn't part of why I emailed the club in the first place. I stay focus on the subjects that I wrote in my email. Maybe if I have another meeting with him I will raise with him -

They didn't give Mowbray last January when I think he thought he deserved one after getting into top 2 but has we know he couldn't sustain it. Lenihan, Nyambe and Rothwell yes all left on free after 18 months contract talks. They wouldn't sell Rothwell to direct rival for promotion whilst Mowbray didn't use all of his budget in January like he should have. They kept BBD this season and won't accept cheap offers for him They gave backed JDT and GB with a good transfer budget this summer. -

well out my price range Mercer You can't resist keeping the dig coming can you Matty. At least I did make the effort and got a meeting and put my opinions to him. Instead, you just make unnecessary digs at people who actually do something instead of just posting them on a messageboard. So no effort to even engage with the club with your opinions but complains about the club and other things on here -

all depends on your perspective and what that person has said in previous comments which JDT has been very consistence with his comments
