  1. Pete O'Rourke has been wrong quite a few times recently. He had Mike Ashley down as the new Birmingham City owner a day after the season ended
  2. He will only go to 4/11 by you putting more bets on. Multiple people are saying he isn't in the running.I will be well and truly shocked if Duncan Ferguson us our next manager
  3. Farke probably would be my choice but his success at Norwich wasn't just down to him.Webber had a huge role with the recruitment. Same at Huddersfield, Wagner took the plaudits but Webber was instrumental in their promotion. Norwich aside Farkes C.V isn't that impressive,and without the support of a Webber behind the scenes then not much to choose between himself and Carvahal at all
  4. Pulis is "retired" like Neil Warnock was multiple times. If he was offered a big a job as Rovers it can nearly be guaranteed he would be coming out of his retirement
  5. He hasnt been offered the job yet according to Unleaded who is probably the most reliable itks on here
  6. Unleaded says the same. Anyway it was just a reply to Chaddy who was talking like Carvahal already has the job
  7. Nixon says Carvahal hasn't been offered the job, he has just been spoken to
  8. Most of that debt has been created by the people who own us because of their poor decision making. And the majority of our debt isn't external it is owed to the owners who will only ever get it back through promotion to the Premier league. They are minted and should after 12 years be appointing a high profile manager ,not another has been who happens to have a promotion on their CV 10 year ago
  9. Good player and one we tried to bring here on loan in the past.His injury record Is poor though and we already have a centre half who misses the majority of the season with injury
  10. Dyche been out of a job far longer than Mowbray? Few on here reckon by June 6th we will have a new manager appointed.
  11. I saw Mick Mcarthy tucking into a big Mac and fries at Ewood McDonald's this evening
  12. If Pearce comes in at least we won't have to buy a replacement for Brererton he will have Kaminski marked down for that role
  13. Iv seen a few people on FB and Twitter saying he applied for it, wouldnt take many throwing a few quid on him on the back of those posts to see him move up in the betting
  14. Seems Venus is definitely going. The gist of the telegraph article earlier suggests a new manager won't be forced to keep the staff on. If Lowe and Benson are still under contract it makes little sense to terminate their contracts until a new man is in place. Whoever the new man is may want someone familiar with the club in recent times to be part of his team
  15. A couple of people putting small bets on him will improve his odds. The odds at the bookies mean nothing until you see someone going strong odds on favourite
  16. Carter looks to have a knack of scoring a few goals aswell.Hopefully that will continue at championship level
  17. Portsmouth CEO reckons Rovers have big plans for Carter and a permanent deal to Pompey won't be happening
  18. Lee Johnson taking the Hibs job so we can breath easy it won't be him who replaces Mowbray
  19. I do not think they genuinely care or have become competent. But if you look throughout their reign they have put money in for the squad and then stop put money in and then stop I know we disagree about it and I do agree with a lot of the points you make about them as iv said previously including the pitch and state of the stadium but up until the pandemic they were putting money in and backing the manager even last season 12 players, yes loans but you add it all together wages and fee it all adds up.All clubs well most tightened their belts when the pandemic hit.The ones who spend have sold a player , parachute payment and are run properly and don't have the dwindling fan base that we have And when we came down our parachute payment and whatever else spent was wasted.Players signed on ridiculous contracts and we had to pay most of them off, or they stayed around and put the bibs out. It wouldn't surprise me if money was made available and they did have a change of tact and go with a more expensive foreign manager like Carvahal. At least the club this season have managed to get new contracts sorted for a few without going into their last year so hopefully that is a sign they have took an interest again because as much as we can wish for it they don't look like they are going anywhere
  20. Fair play to him.Sad to say in this day and age but he has shown a lot of courage and will no doubt suffer abuse because of it
  21. We were also told by Mowbray that Rothwell , Nyambe and Lenihen would be leaving the club. Also been said we not offering enough money. Yet Nyambe and Lenihen remain in talks with the club if it was just a money thing and we weren't close or for budging I'm sure we would have had the same social media posts as we got from Rothwell
  22. It's my opinion Mowbrays future hinged on promotion or at least making the top 6. Iv no idea what was said between Mowbray and the owners regarding his future but up until the eve of the Bournemouth game when asked Mowbray always said he wasn't worried about it....talk at the end of the season etc. I'm sure in similar circumstances other owners would have wanted to see how the season played out, not announce the manager would be leaving when however unlikely still a chance of making the play offs and getting promotion.
  23. I'm not just going off the fact there been a break down in communication but also what Glen Mullan said, that his source reckons be no HSH involvement in the manager appointment. Obviously things can change and like you say they have previous so could happen.
  24. I'm not saying you are wrong but how can you be so sure there has been no forward planning? Other posters claim they have heard from people we have been talking with managers? Are QPR or any other club looking at managers giving daily updates on how the process is going? What was the club statement meant to say "We have held informal talks with a number of managers"..."We have a shortlist" etc. If the owners are taking a more Pro active role in the selection of a manager like Glen Mullan suggested then local media will know nothing about it. Like Chaddy has said it's been 5 years since Mowbray appointed and toward the end seemingly the owners cut communication with him so Id say it's more than likely we will be moving away from the HSH stable.
