Because the buying club would know our need for money had increased.

Isn’t the whole idea of our current model that if the manager leaves the next one will play exactly the same way? If this is the case surely it doesn’t matter whose in charge when the player is signed** **I think it matters and I expect you do too. (I also doubt we will spend a single penny on fees this month)

What about their wages?

Not that I believe this is a realistic possibility but.., Wouldn’t we be dealing with Brentford rather than Arsenal? ie. ‘You’ll owe us £5 million in the summer but we will take £3 million if we can have it right now’

I don’t want to worry you even more but take a look at how our GD compares to everyone else’s…

https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/23545658.blackburn-rovers-searching-vital-backroom-team-appointment/ Rovers will continue their search for a new set piece coach after the struggles in that department during the 2022/23 season. Director of football Gregg Broughton pinpointed as it an area to improve, with Rovers second bottom for goals scored from set pieces. They also shipped five goals from set plays in the run-in, and they will look to address that with the addition of a specialist in that area. Goalkeeping coach Ben Benson has largely been entrusted with set piece organisation, a regular fixture on the touchline issuing instructions (Eight months later…)

Form table since beginning of December:

What situation do you think would achieve that without it involving administration?

I imagine any approach would be met with…

Every club below us has already replaced their manager this season.

Sorry, I forgot that inane platitudes are more important 😁

We’ve conceded more set piece goals (12) than any other team Only QPR (2) have scored fewer set piece goals than us (3).

Thanks. How long will it be before he realise his plans aren’t working?

I had to watch it a few times but I thought I spotted Pickering ‘grappling’ with Helik and then Helik breaking away from him. That could be utter bollocks though as I have the eyesight of a modern day referee 😄 I agree entirely that he shouldn’t have been marking him (if indeed he was!!)

Their desperation to sell was certainly where everything began to go tits up.

He’s far from the only one.

Final replay does seem to show he was Pickering’s man. https://www.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/football/13052545/blackburn-rovers-1-1-huddersfield-town-championship-highlights

Welcome! Theres nothing like jumping in at the deep end…😁

Should we be using our centre back to create overloads? https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2024/january/20/tomasson-s-frustration-continues-following-terriers-draw/

Must have missed that signing 🤔

I wouldn’t be 😄
