This is true, it wasn't a reward or an inducement but what was it?

We have noticed it! Most people on here at the time have read it! In fact everyone's seen it but you and Arsene Wenger! Its in the Dossier! Read it and get back to me!! Hard to believe isn't it? You'll recall me saying a week or two back that there was plenty of evidence that things weren't right but the football authorities looked the other way? And if you're not sure on that ethic, I am!

Premier League season 21/22
47er replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
That's Utd for you---always looking for the spectacular way out. They expect success will happen so long as they spend big enough. "We've spent more than everyone else---why are we not top?" is what they are now thinking. Next manager comes in under even more pressure and has even less time to sort it out. -
Tony, you are so right about Brereton's goal! Not many strikers can score so often from such a narrow angle but Brereton does it for fun! Most strikers in that position would hold it up and wait to pass it to someone more central. Not Brereton! Just smashes it as if the keeper wasn't there. Takes skill, power and confidence, all qualities he didn't seem to have for so long.

I notice you have completely ignored 2 posts on Kean's contract! What's your explanation? Why would a manager be offered a bonus to take his club to the Championship and a further one to Div 1?

Hasn't the only sizeable asset just been sold?

What's Your Favourite Rovers Shirt?
47er replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Ist shirt in the Premiership, very dark blue with MacEwans Lager on the front. -
They even gave the manager (Kean) a contract containing a bonus if we were relegated to the Championship and another one if we were relegated to Div1!! Explain that one away all these who think things were above board. At the time we were a solid and established Premier League club. That suggests to me they knew what was coming.

My abiding memory of Flowers is him running into Dougan about a second after the start of the 1960 Cup Final and driving his knee into Dougan's injured thigh. Just to make sure! We didn't even get a free-kick for that!

Whether Rafiq is a saint or a sinner, nothing excuses the treatment he got from his fellow team-mates at Yorkshire which has shown that racism is wide-spread in English cricket. No wonder we don't benefit from having young Asian or West indian cricketers coming through in numbers. That's to our detriment in case people haven't noticed.
-
Nobody hated him. We just thought he was a poor player. If anything, we blamed the manager for signing him.
-
They probably think is our fault in that we refuse to believe its no longer 1995. It certainly won't be their fault.
-
Oh yeah---Andrews!! How could I have forgotten him? Did Delfuenso get booed? I know I came close!
-
Dobing,Taylor,Eckersley,Clayton(of all people), Connelly, Coddington,Wilcox are a few Rovers players I've seen booed at some time or another. We're a miserable set of bastards sometimes I admit( not uniquely) ! But Brereton has had it easy!!

January Transfer window 2022
47er replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
They accept he's dazzled but think £5M will do it!! -
How is that weird? I'd have said "consistent." I say it as I see it too and call out bullshit whenever I read it.
-
He did say, more than once, that he'd guaranteed Rovers for the future after he'd gone. I expect he thought the Walker Trust would act differently than it did.
-
Of course-- we can both say what we think! Is Arbitro not entitled to one then!
-
Yeah, it would be.
-
Here we go again! What % of your posts criticise Rovers fans? Quite a high one I'd have thought. Brereton has been very well supported by the fans despite flopping for a long period of time.
-
I personally am going to have to struggle very hard to hang in there that long!
-
They say its the hope that kills you. Sorry Revidge but we've has false dawns before, usually about some group or other looking to buy the club. Nothing ever happens. Except that things continue to get worse of course. I'll believe it only when I see it

I wrote this back in early July. Looks like I've got my answer. 😬 -
Have the cleaners been replaced?
