We had lost 7 home games already by Xmas eve, sick of hearing about this December slump.

Again we weren't anywhere near the relegation spots at that point.

After the outgoings and incomings in the playing squad, did you expect us to be higher than 7th place and only 1 point outside the playoffs going into December?

Apologies if already posted .When Dolan is on it he is very important to us 

There were probably in India having their egos massaged for the Wharton sale and fooling us fans with the McGuire deal

Hmm I wonder why they didn’t 

Probably because he was invited over for a banquet to celebrate the Wharton sale

Nixon saying Venkys "thought" about potting Waggott but decided against it and Sylvester "might" get the axe.

Johnson Said in his interview with Elliot that Eustace spent 3 or 4 hours with them yesterday and had a big say and influence over how we set up today 

Good win.McFadzean excellent.

Jeez Stoke are awful

Any clues as to if it has been GB or someone else that has recruited Eustace?

No quotes from Gregg on the official website welcoming him suggests to me it was somebody else.

I'm sure we had plenty of Greg quote's when JDT was announced

Sky confirming it before Rovers do.

Absolutely fucking sick of the people running the show at Ewood.

Cmon mate you have to give the photography team chance to take some pictures of smiling first team players shaking the hand of the new man 

It's an absolute joke.The JDT lost the dressing room line will be spun with a bunch of unhappy players 

Did he just lose the dressing room since the closure of the January window or was that when Maggott was made aware as at most normal clubs the manager/coach  would be out before an important transfer window

Maybe Venky's refusing/unable to pay what he is due under his contract ?

Maybe ,I suppose anything could be happening with this lot.

But you would expect if it is a sacking it would be more cut and dry and be done now as surely there would be a legal requirement to pay JDT up.

My belief is it's the other way round that we are wanting compensation, even though the relationship looks beyond repair and it's inconceivable that JDT would be in the dugout again, a sacking would have been coming anyway especially after being critical of the ownership in his last press conference 

18 minutes ago, Crimpshrine said:

How can you possibly know that?

Has JDT resigned or been sacked ? Has he been offered the Sweden job? Any illegal approaches involved ?

All those questions would need to be answered before we can know if your statement is true.

That's what is being reported,sry I should have said reportedly .

There have been no reports that JDT is seeking compensation and that is the post I was responding too .

What else do you think the hold up could be then?

I like jdt but if he has agreed to be Sweden manager whilst under contract and still demanded compensation that's a joke.

It's us demanding compensation from JDT/Sweden

You think? I reckon that would be crediting our board with a degree of competence.

Hope you're right. Otherwise we can run a "Win the chance to be the manager for the day" competition at 14.45 tomorrow.

At least you don't need the up to date kit to do that so everyone attending should be eligible.

What time is the pre match presser meant to happen?

If we hear nothing by then, then we will go into tomorrow in the disgraceful position, a head coach desperate to leave and the club holding on for dear life in fear of missing out on a few pound in compensation.

I'm so happy we have billionaire owners

Yet nothing official from the club. Can they even be arsed to make a statement? Probably not?

"Oh JDT? Yeah he left by mutual consent. Next"

Be announced later most likely after they have shot the video of Eustace meeting the players then can be released straight away after the JDT announcement.

Stop people talking about JDTs departure and the disgraceful events and woeful ownerships and talking about the new dawn under our new manager John Eustace

Disagree, his tactics haven’t been working all season not just since December. We had lost 8 home games prior to Xmas day. We lost 5 of 6 league games starting from September. We have conceded the most goals in the league. 
 

Most the league were likely a few points off the playoffs in December it’s the championship. The warning signs have been there all season if you take the blinkers off.

We didn't look anything like a relegation side pre December, even if you argue we didn't look like a promotion side which id agree with but I didnt expect we would be with the budget we had and the players that had left and even tho I rate some of our players higher than others a massive killer for the team has been a lack of experience which neither JDT or Broughton were allowed to add in the summer 

I don't think JDT is god and I disagree with plenty of things he has done but "his tactics" did work last season and up until the December,even falling away from the playoffs last season Kaminski should have been back in but in plenty of those games we created enough chances and had enough periods of domination in those matches to believe we were a bit unlucky and it was on our players more than JDT with some of the chances missed in critical moments in matches and with Var we would have made the playoffs 

I do think he should have looked to change things tactically until he had the players he wants but he was sold on a project that was a lie.

Been treated disgracefully and he should have been let go in the summer when he asked to leave

Hodgson gave him a bit of praise too and seemed impressed by his overall performance 

Be absolutely disgraceful if we go into this game with the JDT situation unresolved 

If there isn't an official announcement tomorrow over what is happening it will be an absolute joke
