  1. Agreed, but he is clearly content to let JDT do the talking, ie the easy option. Broughton and Waggott happy to lurk in the shadows, both probably thinking the other should be doing more.
  2. I wouldn’t trust the bloke as far as I could throw him, but he will justify his silence by saying he is waiting for the Window to end. The whole set up is just absolute garbage, and the taps being turned off just makes our vanity project even more ludicrous. What the current situation cries out for is a pragmatist, who is completely focussed on getting results. Broughton or that kind of manager? Not a difficult choice. Won’t happen and we just have to hope the current leeway from the bottom three saves us.
  3. A couple of months ago we were told that JDT was leading us to the Play Offs. I swear that a positive would be found if Ewood Park was about to be bulldozed.
  4. It’s Broughton’s budget, not Tomasson’s. If JDT falls on his sword, (unlikely), Broughton will be pulling the strings of his replacement, who, like Tomasson, will be a Head Coach, not a manager. We need a manager who knows what he’s doing, not a mid ranking civil servant who took a wrong turn and ended up at Brockhall.
  5. Speculation like this isn’t surprising when we loan our captain out.
  6. No chance of that whilst Broughton is DOF, but I agree, we need to get rid of this pretentious structure and appoint a manager who has more control.
  7. He probably regrets not going in the Summer when they told him about the cuts. Now, as others have said, he will stick it out unless / until he gets a pay off. He’s not blameless, for sure, but the club is rudderless, bereft of ambition and owned and run by impostors.
  8. Because it’s the fourth round of the FA Cup and, yes, a big away following always makes for a better atmosphere. All I’m reading is a lot of bitterness, which is understandable.
  9. All of it, (including some of the statements from our own supporters), is just football fans being football fans. It's just a shame that our club isn't in better shape, so we could have the same sense of anticipation, and more fans in the ground on the night.
  10. Herein lies the problem of being a Head Coach at a basket case club like Rovers. Definitely worse than being manager.
  11. If things were going better for us, we’d flog a few more tickets. The pricing is also daft. The ratio of home v away supporters will be a reflection of the respective ownership and fortunes of the two clubs. The look of Ewood a week on Monday will rub a little more salt in the wounds. The game itself has upset written all over it, but hopefully we will prevail and ensure the night isn’t a complete embarrassment.
  12. I wonder what his relationship with Broughton is like? My money would be on not great.
  13. He is definitely seriously pissed off. We badly need a win tomorrow, because something will give quite soon.
  14. I'm expecting an announcement video on 31st January, featuring celebrities chucking a piece of paper to each other, for the signing of a striker from the Faroe Island's lowest tier.
  15. I don’t have a problem with his age, I have a problem that his scoring record is poor.
  16. For the sake of everyone's mental health, I'm not labouring another argument with you. The bottom line is the club is in trouble and being poorly run.
  17. Again, too simplistic but, yes, the owners are the chief culprits and, yes, I know about the tax situation etc, but they will always find a way of cocking it up.
  18. Take the point x 2, but it’s not as simplistic as “it’s all we can do” in my opinion. In any case, he is the one signing them, so what I stated is factually correct.
  19. Yes, someone who would happily work under Broughton and accept his teenage signings. That narrows it down significantly.
  20. Listen, I agree that in reality it’s unlikely anything will happen. However, a simultaneous protest inside the ground during the game can be effective, as we’ve seen with other clubs recently. It just seems that our fan base simply doesn’t have the will or unity to take action, so we carry on sleepwalking into further decline.
