Nothing to see as long as the Wages, taxman and bills are paid on time.

I was wondering who the two stood with Suhail were as well.

Do you have a similar level of disdain for people who say stop going to a supermarket because the food is crap?

Rovers ground is specified as "M" on the plan and the large "MNO" plot which is unspecified stretches up past St Silas's School. The K plot behind Cheltenham St. is specified as Fox Delph. (Old Fox and Grapes Pub?) It would seem from the Key the Church was already there (N) so In conjunction with the drawing that was also shown on here it looks to me like we have a fairly precise location for the ground. To me it seems as though the ground started somewhere around Leamington Rd Baptist Church at one end stretching up in the direction of Sacred Heart Primary School at the other end with the side boundaries between New Bank Rd and Leamington Rd on one side and between what is now Lynwood Rd and Wellfield Rd on the other side further over in the direction of East Lancs Cricket Club. (Think someone else mentioned Wellfield Rd was formerly named Rover St earlier in the thread.)

The only ray of hope is, if they've come to a decision not to remove him at the moment - at least it might have been discussed in the first place.

Apparently the Coach that season was someone called Grant Brebner a Scottish man from Edinburgh who doesn't seem to have had any managerial experience before or after. Him and Kean seemingly worked at Reading at the same time years ago. Kean took over as interim manager in April until the end of the season when Brebner was sacked.

(Tin hat on) There's so much you can legitimately go at them on that I think this is a red herring and a bit of a coincidence which deflects attention from the real issues. A bit like the conspiracy rumours in the old days about Venky's not being the actual owners etc. Even if it's not sheer coincidence and say for the sake of argument Kean/Gestede/Waggott and Pasha have connections to or dealings with some of the same people or agents within the footballing world, what does it prove other than a bit of an old boys network?

It's obviously never going to happen but Im not so sure, the powers that be seemed remarkably think skinned when there was a modest amount of publicity around asking the (then) 3 stooges to stay away from matches.

We'll never know as Travis wasn't the one who stayed. If he had however and Tronstad had left I dont think we'd have been quite as easy to beat or prone to collapsing if we went a goal down or after 60 mins.

What's happened to Tyjon after all the hype about him before the season started?

Two ideas I've seen mentioned that I like are everyone dressing in black to symbolise the death of Blackburn Rovers and the red cards. The black clothing would be very effective as a one off if enough people did it and the media could be tipped off to attend in advance. I've stopped going until there's any sign of improvement but Id happily don my funeral suit and go down for that. The red cards, well once they've been handed out, no-one can stop you bringing them into a ground and they can be used again and again, no limit to that. Also the 135/15 idea is a very powerful message, needs to be plenty done themed around that I feel.

Absolutely. No-one expects us to be romping the League by ten points but eight losses out of eleven in all Comps this season? Come on.

Ok, thanks for explaining. Not sure how compiling a Survey and telling the Club they're not very happy with them once the results eventually come back is going to help much but marginally better than nothing I guess.

Results without Travis suggest otherwise.

I mean, the suggestion that the FF go down to Brockhall is absolutely nonsense anyway but Id hope the team spirit WASN'T that good at the moment after seven defeats out of ten and sitting second bottom. They should be absolutely gutted at that and determined to put things right. Instead the TV panned on Henrikssen last night after the final whistle and he looked as if he was about to burst into tears. Then the manager displays all the emotion and self awareness of a T1000, always just bad luck or someone else's fault, just one of those things. Where's the fight going to come from to get out of this?

He's just not that good. As I always said, we'll see how good he is when Travis has gone. We also nearly got relegated when Travis was on loan at Ipswich.

By "Trust" do we mean "Coalition" or have the Trust broken back off and decided to go their own separate way again?

"Turnover" for winning the ball or giving it away does my head in. Like it's some mystical art form.

I was told at the time that the powers that be had rightly or wrongly decided they wanted to go down the younger Head Coach/DOF model some considerable time before Mowbray left. Presumably they had independent advice to this effect.

Have to agree with your comment earlier in the week that the Forum is now a negative influence. Merely being prepared to sit down with the barstewards partially legitimises their presence and if what is reported in the minutes isn't a true reflection of what was actually said anyway it's all completely pointless. The last straw for any rational fan should have been the Club's refusal to try and meet Eustace half way when Derby came in for him. The FF should have walked out of the next meeting and refused to reconvene until there were signs of improvement.

Unbelievable if true. The "data" shows we have lost seven games out of ten, have scored only eight goals in those ten games and are headed for a record low number of around 31 -33 points for the season. End of.

"Nothing is aligned at the moment" Im trying to resist the temptation not to swear but failing miserably. Get the **** out of our Club and take your chums Rudy and Suhail with you!

He played a good ball over towards De Neve leading up to our goal but apart from that he didnt do a great deal and never looked remotely like scoring. I agree with RF99 on this.

Can't imagine you'd be able to give most of them away the way they're performing apart from Alebiosu.
