Same here. He looks fed up and wants out. And at the moment, with the team in freefall and him unable to do anything about it, he's doing more harm than good. They won't sack him because it costs money; I wish he would walk away today

Well done with all this. In view of events and while it is live and feelings are high a strong statement today would be welcome

They're the sort who, despite being underpaid and exploited for years, are eternally thankful to their employers just for giving them a job. They would never rock the boat for fear of losing it and go through life in awe of their supposed superiors. They're the sort who never question any sort of officialdom, never think that people at the top might be corrupt, or acting only for themselves, that they only got their through luck, or exaggerating their own abilitites, but are in fact totally useless. They're the sort who vote for the same team every time at elections despite that team never having acting in their interests. They are dangerous because they like the status quo, and are against change, even when it is blindingly obvious that change is desperately needed. This is what Rovers fans fighting the Ewood regime are up against. The enemy within.

Thanks for clearing that up. My post was conjecture so it’s going to know there are folk on here who have the full facts at their fingertips

If that’s all Broughton does as you claim then he’s under employed, overpaid, and isn’t actually very good at it. Another case for getting rid of the DoF role and letting a manger do the job

That’s the old Bryan I remember Lovely

Anyone got a contact at Manchester airport? If he's on that 10.30am flight tomorrow you have to assume the deal is dead

Tomasson has shown himself to be a one-dimensional manager capable of getting the team to play attractive football at times in the modern style but incapable of organising a defence and making the team hard to beat when it isn't playing well. He's likeable but there's also clearly a touch of arrogance. In our current predicament he should put his ego to one side now. If he cared about the club - and the fans - he should resign this week.

Read the Rovers Facebook page - it's full of the same sort of statements and although there's a few dissidents it seems to be the accepted narrative there where this place is very much anti-Venkys. Have they got it right and we've got it wrong?. There are parallels. Never question what they're doing, or that they might be corrupt, or that they might be working against your interests and in fact couldn't give two diddly-squats about you

Cost of living crisis hitting hard? While you’re there find us some players on the Copacabana. You’ll have to the paperwork though as the club clearly can’t

Disagree and it won't happen: there will always be a hardcore few. Get on the pitch and bring a match to a halt. Guaranteed headlines. Reading fans showed the way

Sorry, this is letting Tomasson off the hook. All the above is true but that doesn't excuse the way the team was set up and played today. And it's not as if today was unusual, it's been the same for weeks and weeks, the team is in freefall and heading for the bottom 3 at a rapid rate. This is all down to Tomasson, and if he's feeling hard done by and sulking then it's a poor show and unprofessional on his part. He needs to show some respect to the fans, work with what's he's got and get the team picking up points again. Even some draws would be encouraging.

Not a single post on this thread despite another loss to a relegation rival. You have to assume fans still aren’t worried - or do they think now it’s inevitable?

Losing at home to a relegation rival is the mark of a club on the way down. Even a draw would have been acceptable but we couldn’t even manage that. Tomasson’s position would appear to be untenable. If he wasn’t going already he should resign

Yes agreed. Results are appalling. His time is up

Another defeat. Still laughing? Goldfish 1 Barn Owl 0

I don’t find today’s performance and the last few games I’ve seen live including the debacle at Wrst Brom that funny. I don’t know why you do

I hope you’re including Tomasson in that. This is his team out there today

Moran has been poor for many weeks, should be on the bench. Team needs changing half time

You got it right this sentence. They were afraid of what he might come out with. I still doesn't make much sense though because presumably he'll have his say when he leaves, which could be today according to some

We all know Venkys take very little interest in what happens at Ewood, unless money is involved And we all know who is responsible for the day-to-day management of the club. The latest farce is yet another example of their incompetence and poor decision-making. The club could function properly, even with our arrogant, absentee owners. But these aren't good people in the Ewood boardroom. That must be obvious

253 all out and another mountain to climb. England got away with it in the first Test but batting fourth is unlikely to happen again. The Times made England favourites to win the second Test which never made much sense

The mess at Rovers isn’t all down to Venkys. This is down to the amateurs and incompetent management in charge at Ewood. It’s not unusual sadly. Tomasson has had an eye opener over the past 2 seasons on how this declining little island operates.

If Tomasson does go I hope Broughton goes with him. I don’t like the dual role model and would prefer a traditional manager in charge of player recruitment and the team. Broughton as far as I can see has added little extra value in the players he’s recruited, one or two good ones but plenty of duds too.

The rumours don’t sound right. Managers who know they are going don’t normally hang on for one more game. They walk away and don’t look back. Let’s see but I’d be surprised if he left after the QPR game
