Striker scores a goal and that would be amazing? Really?

Keep your sunny side up Chaddy!! -
The Blackburn End was open for the Walsall game---1st Round and lower-grade opposition. It doesn't make sense.

We got a scare at 4-3 but when the final whistle was near the Blackburn End was literally bouncing with sheer joy!

There to find new ways of saving money? Seems the most likely knowing this lot. -

He's pretty restrained there really, I'd have hit the roof in his circumstances. Deliberate destruction of a successful team. -
Amen. Cherish the memories.

He's paid whether he plays or not isn't it he? We've got rid of Buckley to get the wages bill down a tad but are paying this chap who, history suggests, won't play much of the season. So he is loss-making isn't he?

Remember that Coventry game so well. Student at the time and travelled up from London to see it. Total stupidity from Fergy that ended our very real promotion hopes. However, a genius on his day and an integral component in a forward line that had scored for fun in Div 1.

I should know, I have one!

But since membership of the Trust is only £10 amd even that's a once only.....?

No---this club will never fold. -

Yeah--I suppose that's true. Puts the club at risk when they get caught though. -

So you approve of this club being owned by tax-dodging spivs? -

No change there then! You're right---worst of both worlds. They stick around but don't fund us. -

Its the same as finding a new manager. "Who would want to be a manager at this club?" was the mantra when Mowbray was here and failing. And we've got a better one. We wouldn't know of any buyers until the club was up for sale. Who'd have forecast that 2 Americans who have made their money in Hollywood would roll up at Wrexham? Who'd have thought that an American sports star would allign himself with Wolves? (Correction---Birmingham, thanks Jim) Whether any of us know of a would-be new owner isn't all that relevant. -

Well they'd save themselves £20M a year! -
I'm pretty incisive when I feel like it Roger!

We are going down (the pessimism thread)
47er replied to simongarnerisgod's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Given the lack of depth, experience and numbers plus our inability to convert chances I can't see us making a strong run-in to the end of the season! Very pessimistic and hopefully wrong! -

So much for Twitter then. Hardly the venue for accurate discernment. -
Hard to tell if your are being sarcastic or not!! Either way the man actually doing a good job is Tomasson. He may well serve out his 3 year (?) contract but he has clearly been sold a pup---as in "the project has changed" and hasn't been given the support he needed and deserved. I can't see us making 2 good appointments in a row so I think we'll soon be in real strife and promotion looks as far away as ever. Avoiding relegation will more likely be the aim at that point. If JDT gets this squad up it would be an absolute miracle. Definitely weaker than last season, no project at all. A real slap in the face of supporters with optimism raised last season.

It may be that Waggot and Co simply have a set of financial instructions to work to so the owners don't have to meddle at all. Blissfully absent. -

The problem is these days happen to us all too often. Last season I lost count of the number of chances we created and failed to convert. The recent transfer Window was surpposed to put that right -

Summer Window - Rating /10
47er replied to roversfan99's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Can't rate the transfer window until we've seen the outcomes. in truth the success of this Window depends on the vital position we've neglected too long--central striker. Ennis out injured and injury prone, new striker an unknown quantity.
