I know a few people who used to be STH but now have children and got on to property ladder so they have cut back on certain things and their children have activities so can't come to games as often as they would like. Plus their working pattern has changed meaning they can't make games. Rovers need to make more affordable for people with cheaper season ticket prices. match day prices plus food and drink cheaper and better quality if you want to get people back plus we need to be getting more into schools, youth clubs and local football teams to give away free tickets, merchandise and etc.

Correct Its was based I guess on the 2 nicko stories and rumours around at that time

Not at all, Lambert was odds on like 4/6 as soon as the market went up if my memory serves me right which gives no value on your bet. JFH was 4 or 5/1 if my memory serves me right. Not odds ons straight away like Lambert was He said attacking football not attractive. Why is not worth a risk as every appointment is a risk? But you are very happy to take a risk on Liam Manning from MK Dons who has no promotions on his CV.

2 pros and 2 cons as Blackburn Rovers consider Daniel Farke as Tony Mowbray successor 2 pros and 2 cons as Blackburn Rovers consider 45-year-old as Tony Mowbray successor (msn.com)

Somewhat true but I remember when Bowyer was sacked and Lambert was odds on favourite straight away based on a couple of news stories in the media. The LT could be asking potential managers whether they are interested in the Rovers job and whether they have applied for the job. They have asked for interview with Waggott which I believe will be sometime this week if its happens I remember when Ince was sacked and the national media were running stories that Souness was going to be appoint the day after and Souness gave an exclusive interview to the LT to say he wasn't becoming Rovers manager. 2 promotions on a shoestring of budget.

Thanks for the reply RDM hasn't been manager for nearly 6 years and I think that's too far out of management for me. Not keen on Cocu or Stam. Think Ainsworth or Farke would be the right and ideal appointment for me

Great work by the club and the people involved in this. Great move by the club.

Wasn't Shearer recommended by Sir Kenny Dalglish to Shebby?

Who would be your dream appointment? Roberto Di Matteo? from your sources at Rovers?

Ex-Derby boss Phillip Cocu is leading contender to be Blackburn Rovers manager Blackburn Rovers: Ex-Derby boss Cocu is leading candidate for vacancy (footballinsider247.com)

I would be looking at Callum Brittain from Barnsley as Nyambe's replacement. Another player I would be looking at is Oxford's midfielder Cameron Brannagan.

Ainsworth will and its called doing it professional Farke was on around 1 to 1.5 million at Norwich when they were in the PL i have read on line so not unrealistic we could offer him around 700k a year here and if he gets us promotion we offer a 50% increase plus a million pounds promotion bonus. Nicko is saying they want to interview around 6 people and chose from that with the next 2 to 3 weeks Mention Wilcox a couple of weeks ago to coming here. yes he could be the next Steve Cooper and Neil Critchley or not. Its a risk to appoint him but every managerial appointment is a risk.

Lets hope it happens. I am trying to keep my excitement calm and I will be only happy when its announce by Rovers and he is holding the Rovers shirt up at Ewood Park. Lets hope Venkys have learnt from this and they have a better understanding of football. Thanks for all the info Glen you post on here, very much apprenticed by us all Farke is the clear choice for these reasons, 1. He knows the league and has 2 promotions from this league 2. Will keep developing our young players and bringing more academy players through, 3. He plays good football 4. He is hard task master and demands the best. exactly what we need Do you not think that maybe Jason Wilcox come be coming here as Director of Football operations or something similar? QPR first choice target appearing to be MK Dons Liam Manning from what I read this morning.

Mowbray has done the statement for them tbh, the main focus now is finding and interview candidates to replace Mowbray with Mason is being moving to Newcastle which will be challenging for top 6 next season. its a massive promotion with Howe and Ashworth they will have done their research before appointing him. The players look better fitness wise than last season. Sharpe said he is finalising an interview for end of the week with him. interesting comment there Glen, Hopefully it remain unanswered.

I don't think Lowe needs replacing as Damien Johnson will just do that role. New manager will need his own number, fitness coach and goalkeeper plus replacing those who are leaving us for new clubs

Here is Ainsworth's backroom team at Wycombe Assistant: Richard Dobson ,Goalkeeping Coach: Lee Harrison, First-Team Coach: Matt Bloomfield, .Head of Sports Science: David Wates, Recruitment Analyst: Stephen Clarke

If Ainsworth is first choice then we need to wait until their playoffs run is over

They are going to bigger clubs so what can you do. Would you turn down a move to Newcastle or Red Bull Leipzig where you are working with better players and improve salary?

Yes the manager should be part of group who decide and bring in new staff to work with him. The manager needs to have a working relationship with this person. We need a manager who has lots of contacts out there where we bring them in without advertising for the position like we do now. These are positions that need filling already 1. Manager 2. Head of Player Recruitment 3. Lead Athletic Performance Coach 4. First Team Athletic Performance Coach 5. Head of Medical Services and that's before we even get to the new manager bringing in his own staff. Blimey this new manager will have a rebuilding job with the backroom staff aswell as needing 8 to 10 new signings

2 goals in 17 games there. Looks short on fitness and nothing like Maja I seen at Sunderland

Who is this top class striker out there? I would have gone for Rhys Healey from Toulouse but we didn't if we want a striker to score goals

If you have problem with my post then don't see read it. No problem then is there

Yes Cos Mowbray's comments in the LT were suggesting another key backroom staff member will go. He is going to Newcastle so Rovers and the next manager is going to have massive to do list including bringing in his own staff and replacing 4 key staff members aswell as signing players. The next manager appointment need to be done quickly and within the next 2 weeks

Liam Mason, Blackburn Rovers' head of athletic performance, is set to join Newcastle United as the exodus of staff from Ewood Park continues. The next manager will need to rebuild the fitness and medical/Physio side of the club
