Eustace…he gone…*official*
islander200 replied to jim mk2's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Yeah no debate we have worse owners, and that was the Cashin money that got spent, looking at their squad there isn't many more big assets that I can see Plus I presume whoever is head coach there has minimal say in recruitment like here?Otherwise total madness to not make the change of manager before they spent that money . My argument isn't that we have better owners or we spend more money ,just My opinion he would have more attractive job opportunities if he waited till summer even when our season comes to nothing. Big risk going to Derby with the position they find themselves, and he doesn't have a scorer like Sammie there -

Exactly And they don't have a Szmodic to keep them up. Can understand why Eustace wants out but despite it being a Midlands club and an ex club of his, I don't see the attraction. Their owner hasn't been splashing the cash and not even sure if he has the means to go big in the transfer market -

It will be back to the academy model, fill our quota of loans and bring 1 or 2 in on free transfer 1 year contracts like Batth and Weimann -
January Transfer window
islander200 replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I find that extremely hard to believe. What about Riberio, Dennis and Woodraw the other night ?Dennis and Woodrow wouldn't be allowed to play by their parent clubs What was the waiver?If you get injured we don't pay the players wages?No senior player would play if that was the case There is enough problems at the club to be taking them to task for but I'm calling absolute nonsense on this one -
v Wolves (h) - 9/2/2025 - FAC4
islander200 replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
We have been here before 8 points from 11 games .Shite Transfer window again.Manager being linked with every club going. Small squad being stretched and missing key men. Can you really blame people for thinking we won't finish in the top 6? If we don't start picking up wins soon we will be down in 9th or 10th and top 6 will be a distant memory Look how much ground the likes of Coventry, Norwich, Sheff Wednesday, Bristol City ,Qpr etc have made on us in the last couple of months Boro ,West Brom and Watford have had spells of poor form and inconsistency during our bad run West Brom have arguably made the signing of the window in Armstrong imo, the guy is guaranteed goals for them.And yes Boro lost Latth but they have brought in good signings on paper Its very hard to be confident of top 6 right now -

You are speaking with Blue n White glasses on Chaddy If Boro or another top 6 contender had the window we had I don't believe you would think it was "a decent window overall" Eustace wanted a goalscorer, Dennis and Woodraw ain't goalscorers. All our signings have had a lack of playing time and came in here late in the window Its obvious Eustace wants out, he is linked with every championship job going.The window was shite and if he stays he will be left with 13/14 senior players in the summer -

islander200 replied to jim mk2's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
They discussed it on sky today Sherwood and Michael Dawson were baffled as to why Eustace would want to leave a job in the top 6 for a club in the relegation zone No mention of our shite owners, no mention of the transfer income compared to expenditure, no mention of our shit January window -

islander200 replied to jim mk2's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
He was lied to about what budget we had going into the window and throughout aswell imo When asked about incoming players, he spoke of goalscorers, experience and "names" Guaranteed he wasn't expecting a bunch of signings who have played minimal last 12 months.Gets 3 of them on the final day and will probably take them a month up to speed He goes Derby and if they have investment the summer headlines will be "Travis and Brittain follow Eustace to Derby" -
Eustace…he gone…*official*
islander200 replied to jim mk2's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Yeah can't blame Eustace for wanting out Although unless Derby have investment coming in, if I was Eustace I would hold off till summer. -

islander200 replied to jim mk2's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
He asked for a goalscorer. He didn't get one We didn't have a good transfer window chaddy. Dennis and Woodrow have hardly played in a year.When did they last score a goal? Signed Forshaw....not as good as Baker Signed Sanderson wasn't playing in League One Signed Kargbo whose stats suggest he struggles above Seria C And signed Ribeiro whose team released mid season It was a shite transfer window and despite what Eustace has said publicly he will be dissapointed with the window -

islander200 replied to jim mk2's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I agree it would be a strange move for him but...... If it is true that they are making an official approach then they will have had some encouragement from Eustace or his advisors. -

We will appoint Paul Warne in readiness for the promotion push from league one in 26/27 -
January Transfer window
islander200 replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
But they haven't come off the books? Even if gets a move now before summer he won't be getting a deal like he got here, so we will most likely have to pay him off to facilitate a move, otherwise he will just continue to pick his wage up here and wait until the summer -

islander200 replied to Forever Blue's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Be interesting to see who they bring in. Warne must have had little say in recruitment like Eustace otherwise daft to wait until the transfer window closes. -

The New Look BRFCS...
islander200 replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Thanks for the hardwork Herbie and the rest of the brfcs team -
Has it been confirmed we don't have a year's option I know the club didn't mention an option when they announced the signing but they didn't with Hyam either
-
Next season it will be back to playing the kids from the academy model and the excuses for not spending any money will be "we don't want to block the pathway to young Dunn, young Tyjon and young Litherland "

Are you there mate or is it available to watch online?

January Transfer window

Nixon saying Schlupp agreed to halve hie wages going to Celtic.He was on 60k a week at Palace So has signed for Celtic on 30 grand a week.No chance we where ever paying that and as for Wallace, why didn't we get him?He wanted to leave earlier in the window when he was out of favour. The budget is poor but guarantee it was chaos behind the scenes to with differing opinions Arguing amongst themselves over who to bid for. -
We need ohashi back in the team I'd be fuming if they left him out, he is back in a few weeks It should be Sigurdsson left out, or Pickering if he isn't going be back training till mid march

Toth should start v Wolves and if he has a good game should keep his place -

islander200 replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Because our form is poor ,8 points from 11 games is relegation form not top 6 Dennis hasn't kicked a ball competively in 9 month .Woodrow has hardly played and Kargbo is an unknown They are hardly signings where you think to yourself "top 6 here we come" -
