Good point, maybe he needs someone more tried and tested for a serious run at promotion. -

This worries me. We are very light if one or two of our midfielders get crocked. Maybe should have rotated him in for a few games. -

I remember us signing “the other Shearer” to take rhe wind out of Swindon’s sails back in the day. Different money, different time. -

What for ten quid!! No wonder i am going around in circles with a Mowbray interview on Rovers TV. Thanks AI. Is the sound on Rovers Tv. Sounds a weird question now i type it. 🤔 -

Wearing my new Rovers shirt from Christmas and about to sign in to Rovers TV. What could possibly go wrong? -

And to you Riversider. 🎄🕺. Those bottles under the tree can’t be more than a couple of grand. To Paraphrase Rowan Atkinson in Love Actually. “ Those Rovers shirts are so much more than money.” -

Perhaps you might have to consider the unthinkable. Maybe you were not good this year?😉 -

Ooo Luvly. Need to keep Ben. Tell him he could end up like his neighbour at Southampton, firing blanks. -

Interesting decision to be made. Do we let him go and ask for compensation, or will we have to extend his contract to keep him sweet? Not an issue last season but right now we are on a roll and the youngsters seem to be benefiting from him. -

I guess this is a transfer of sorts. I think I manifested this talking to my brother who is a Town supporter a week ago. Apologies if there is another thread, I only see the headline topics on my browser these days. https://the72.co.uk/257365/ipswich-town-keen-on-blackburn-rovers-boss-tony-mowbray/ -

Horrible manager. Trashed all of the existing team replaced the lot and then drew with Barrow. Ipswich have consistently created very talented youngsters. Roy Keane started the rot and then the three “appauling “managers. Paul Jewell,Lambert and Cook who was appointed before the takeover. “Cooks biggest winning run was 2 matches. He managed that once in 44 games.” The US millionaire owners will probably get it right this time. -

You can have Paul Cook if you like. Another apparently desirable option for us who has done worse for Ipswich than Lambert, if that was humanly possible. It was. -

I feel confident. I know we are a scalp but we have the players on form. Dolan would love a few goals. Diaz needs a goal or two to justify his tattoo on that guys stomach. I know we have had false dawns but this feels different. I will take fourth in December when so many big clubs are faltering. Including my mate’s beloved Wednesday. -

bigbrandjohn replied to PotterLog's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
There was an interesting article in the paper about Sheffield United. Jokanovic the fifth championship manager to be fired in the last 70 days including some of those touted as replacements for Mowbray. United have banked two years of Premier League parachute payments and up to 38 million quid for Ramsdale Yet the manager was only allowed to recruit loan signings and free transfers in the last two windows Mowbray has been given a pretty free hand in the market and Venkys have hung on in there for ten years in spite of their mistakes. We are fourth, and I for one thank Mowbray and Venkys for that, as well as our young, hungry and motivated team. There have been false dawns before, but I will take that emotional risk. I have carried my heart on my sleeve for almost sixty years for Rovers. That’s Football. -

Especially the last six of the season. 18 points would come in handy. -

bigbrandjohn replied to Mike E's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Nothing like sending Brereton Diaz off to Chile brimming with confidence. “He didn't first-half, did he? Let's be honest, he wasn't very good in the first-half," exclaimed the Rovers boss.” True, but not great timing. He will get tapped when he is away i am sure.
