Joe Rothwell possible Rovers target. http://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/16268950.Joe_Rothwell_among_the_deals_Rovers_could_revisit_this_summer/?ref=mac

Blackburn Rovers interested in Shamrock Rovers striker Graham Burke https://m.independent.ie/sport/soccer/league-of-ireland/championship-clubs-to-step-up-interest-in-shamrock-rovers-hotshot-graham-burke-36973977.html

We dont know what offers have been made to any players do we? Mowbray keeps it out of media and doesnt link owt.

The LT also said they no plans to appoint a CEO. then week or 2 later Steve Waggott was appointed.

Hopefully with us Mulgrew at Rovers will help him decide to come here. With both players being away with Scotland together, hopefully Mulgrew has sold the club and Mowbray

Thanks Stuart.

Yes it did Stuart. We are now engaged. Very happy and great weekend there. Nothing is going kill my mood today

Sorry Stuart but you are wrong. I gave Coyle a chance to prove me wrong but he didnt. I was never a fan of him. One of the worst appointment in Rovers history. Yes I gave him some praise in some games when it was deserved but plenty cricticism when it was deserved. About 20 people.

thanks for the report as I haven't seen the game as I was away in Edinburgh for weekend. very much appreciative from me.

Hindsight is such a wonderful thing isn't it? Coyle was a bad appointment as most Rovers fans knew he would be. Very poor manager. I have no idea what Jack or Blueboy say as I don't read their posts and are on the ignore list. on De Boer sacking, look at what was on behind the scenes there at Palace and the disagreements between him, Parish and the Players. I would suggest you look at what was reported at the time and why he was sacked and the reasons behind it. do you want some links to these reports? who keep appointing these managers at Leeds then a few months sacking them, surely it time they are sack??? Leeds have gone nowhere over the years but stayed mid table club apart from 1 season under Monk who decide to leave after finishing 7th. Sadly, you are wrong that If I was a Chairman I would look overseas as I would be looking British for sure. a lot of good young head coach/managers out there. Some deserve a chance at a higher level.

But have you not seen His response to Bennett tweet instead? I would say Morsy is talking nonsense personally. No response from Armstrong to Morsy tweet but to Bennett

1st choice - Damien Johnson 2nd choice - Gareth Ainsworth 3rd choice - Simon Grayson 4th Choice - Paul Heckingbottom

But Heckingbottom wasn't a poor choice tho. He done excellent at Barnsley. Watford and Chelsea might will have successful but look at other clubs who havent like Swansea, Leeds, Birmingham, etc. I believe in given a manager a proper chance and time. You appoint a manager for a reason so why backtrack so quickly. Unless it was a mess and you are in bottom 3 and manager who record is awful or things are well behind the scenes like De Boer at Palace or Coyle here or Coleman/Grayson at Sunderland. Leeds hire and fire policies over the last few years have achieve nothing but disappointment and failure to make the playoffs. I have nothing against foriegn managers at all but I prefer an British manager. I know if Mowbray was to leave tomorrow I know who my 3 choices shortlist would be. No foriegn manager would be on that list. Just for record I hope Mowbray doesnt anywhere for a number of years to come

Last 2 jobs Bielsa has had, only 2 days at Lazio and massive disappointment at Lille. Winning 5 drawing 5 and losing 9. Not that good. Did I say Lampard was a good appointment? Or did I said its good to see Lampard willing to take a job in Championship and not think hes too good for this league. Lampard has been coaching sessions at Chelsea with the youth sides plus appointed Morris as his number 2 who experience coach tho not 1st team level. On Christiansen, was he doing that much of a bad job or the same with Heckingbottom. Surely what Leeds united is a manager who is there longer than 1 year or more.. In my opinion they will never get anywhere cos they dont get a manager time and let them build a squad. Far too much short term thinking with zero consideration of the long term

But he on a special list dont hire at all cos he's clueless

So Jokanovic did have championship experience then before they went up.. Wolves spent alot of money to go up. Plus have a super agent helping them. I rather have an manager with knowledge of this league. I feel Heckingbottom was dealt a very poor hand by the owner. I think the risk is far too much for me. Failed at Lille and lasted 2 days at Lazio..yes 2 days

I quote Stuart who mention Bobby Robson. Never quote anybody else so whats the problem?

No need for that Den. Thought you were better than that. Anderson and Broad arent very happy with Vaughan's comments.

Very unfair on Heckingbottom IMO. no chance to bring his own players he wanted, working with unbalance squad, far too many foriegn players. Christiansen started well but things went bad after a couple of months They had Rosler, Christiansen and Milanic in the past 4 seasons aswell. Leeds in last few years have gone nowhere. Biesla has no experience of football in England. Will be culture shock for him. Yes they have some managers who has been successful but alot more failures. Lee Johnson and Dean Smith have both done good jobs at their clubs. I would prefer one of those than someone like Biesla. McClaren is McClaren.

Michael Vaughan. Supposedly not down with either has his comments

3 months with Heckingbottom in charge with a squad that wasnt good enough and lots of different nationalities there is enough time? No transfer window to bring players he wanted. Heckingbottom shouldnt have gone to Leeds in hindsigt. Reckon he might get the Bradford job Leeds will go nowhere under Bielsa IMO.
