That's our boxing day fixture sorted!

Fantastic stuff, bring on the financial impact

Wow nothing gets past you eh 😄

Yeah that's what worries me, I would have thought ainsworth is still in contract so would be compensation, but happy to be corrected. Don't get me wrong I'd back him if he came in, we've been linked with a lot worse but I just think we need a more experienced and reputable name to sell some season / gate tickets and attract the talent needed to complement who's in place already and play an improved game.

Well I'd have thought the word 'think' gives that away...

Think we deserve better, we've been there before and we won't get out this division with that style of football.

Let's hope not

In the same way the likes of greats like Rooney, Keane, and yes Dunn, Tugay and other players from that era can obviously coach, do not want to see them near a coaching or management capacity at Rovers.

Farke this sh!t, let's get Marco Rose in, after all, his name fits the badge an all that.

Sadly you're probably very right. Which is a shame because I'm hanging on by a very thin thread at this point. well we should all be holding off season ticket renewals until its done

I wonder who Benni McCarthy would have on his staff here if he got the job. Mokeona getting a caution from the dugout every other game

Speaking of him...

It's the done thing to interview remotely, even moreso since covid came and went and measures vary across the world...

or it's a waste of time and effort for everyone involved....

Unfortunately the bastards are probably a lot more enticing

Ugh

Gone off Ainsworth 😄

sorry hun xx and no i dont (see what @Butty says) another something for us to mull over, lets narrow our contenders down to who has worked or will work within this model - hope it scares off some of the jokers we've been linked with, ie. Ferguson. Keane, Grayson, Woodhate, Carrick, Appleton etc...

Also reading Carlos Carvalhal has job offers from Brazil so can't begrudge him too much if he chooses the sunshine and beaches of Rio instead of the sun shy sandbanks of the Ribble...

i'd rather we got Ted Lasso than him ffs

couldnt agree more

remember when we had a Portuguese contingent come in under Kean - why did that happen again? Blackburn's Portuguese players fuming after being made scapegoats for slump - Mirror Online

He'll be hanging around until the end of June? gardening leave

Forest Green Rovers said to be fuming over Watford's approach which took place behind their backs he'll be out the door by Xmas, should get a decent pay off though at least
