thanking you

lets hope he had the entire midfield set up watching the way Arsenal played today and hpoing that between themselves and the coaching staff they have worked out some sort of plan of how to diffuse the Arsenal way of fast attacking football before they swamp our non existant defence

can anyone translate for the non norwegian literate ?

blooming heck Jim have you not got flu or somat ? I thought you were bed ridden as it has taken you over 30 hours to post !

dont really know wot you mean colin but they are both extremely typical of a manure fan who NEVER goes to a game unless its at Ewood and only then if they have the actual time to go !

'old on a mo

aint breaking news on another thread ?

Having access to a wide and varied sports netwrok I cannot believe that not ONE of the media sources around the sporting world has NO knowledge of this alleged deal !

I wait with baited breath and if your right Krislu there is a cold one waiting at the Bear !

and terry henry is joining on loan as we speak !

I have studied very closely the formation that Arsenal employ, its hard to see anywhere and what tactics could be employed to either frustrate them or even beat them. I have however some suggestions that may "rattle" the Arse!

1. Make them kick towards the North Bank first half.

2. Employ a 5 man midfield, leaving one attacker alone.

3. Rovers must deploy 2 wide midfielders which will restric tthe movement of Reyes and Bergkamp/Pires.

Team

Freidel

Neill

Matteo

Johanssen

Short

Gray

Fergie (if allowed to play) or Flitcroft

Emerton

Stead

Gresko

Tugay

its either that or just go there with an intention of getting a draw and that means a team devoid of attacking players !

Does anyone remember the Alamo ??

you dont really need to tell me that ALL manure fans are the same both young and old !

no offence taken they are work colleagues

lets just clear up that challenge between short and beattie.

It was never a 50-50 challenge, in fact IMO it was a 80-20 challenge in the favour of the defender. Beattie was moving backwards Short was in control, keeping eyes on the ball at all time and rose well above Beattie, headed the ball away whilst JB limped around like a dying swan, puppy eyes looking sweetly at the idiotic referee who took sympathy on him.

as for waking up this morning and realising that someone is now not a sounes supporter following a good nights rest ?

Well its Sunday, its lovely and sunny here in Leyland, the kids are out, the dog is in the back garden and all I was thinking about was well....let your mind roam.... it certainly was nothing about Souness,BRFC or football !

Dickead durso has allegedly admitted his error, I just wonder where this leaves Rovers on Wednesday Evening, will he be suspended ?

that comment appeared to be directed towards Southampton fans and in particular their chairman Rupert Lowe.

In the context it was said I think you would have to be a bit extreme if one thought it was directed at his own fans !

chrsit 2 games in and instead of player and manager fall outs we are seeing the members of this forum ripping each other apart

its only early doors boys and girls

Well in only a week we welcome the second biggest club in the world, a club with massive profits but with no money to spend on new transfers ! I decided to quiz two of my arm chair manure supporters who allegedly know about football but in particular manure fc.

I asked Ste and BY about how they felt about BRFC's achievements in 1995 when we famously PURCHASED the Premiership Trophy, this was after I pointed out the reality that both Arsenal and Manure had actually outspent BRFC massively with their own trophy bearing achievements.

Ste.. I was very surprised that BRFC actually managed to win the trophy but as a manure fan I felt that Liverpool would actually roll over and let you win that last match easily. As a die hard fan of manure I was gutted obviously as we clearly had outplayed you over the full season.

BY... I agree with Ste. We deserved the cup and you only bought it with JW's stash. Your club didnt deserve it and it really should have been sitting at Old Trafford. I suspect that someone had paid off the ref at West Ham.

I then pointed out that over the full season we had actually amassed more points than them and could they explain their reasoning behind their previous thoughts about having outplayed us.

Ste.. yes well we know you scored more points but really we deserved it as we played the better football. All Blackburn did was manage to scrape more points in the bag than we did and obviously had homer referees for most matches !

BY..well we all know that dalglish was up every referees arse so they played to their strengths and knowing that they would get an earful of the whingeing scot they awarded more decisions to Blackburn !

But dont you think that the original whingeing scot is non other than your own RFW ?

ste...what do you mean RFW ?

BY....que ?

Red faced whinger !

Ste....Well Fergie is god, he knows everything and has won more than anyone else. Whatever he says is right.

BY...Fergie has been there and done it, he knows best. There is not another manager that can touch him.

I hastily pointed out that RFW blatantly refuses to accept defeat gracefully and asked for their opinions.

Ste....yes he is right, if we lose its a fluke.

BY..we dont lose very often, its a once in a lifetime event so he does not have to accept anything else from anyone.

Lads, do you not think that you have adopted the typical arrogant attitude of the recent moanchester united syndrome ?

Ste...no

BY...no. we are the biggest and best.

What are your thoughts on the spending spree by Chelsea?

Ste.. it doesn't matter how much they have, how much they spend or who they buy, we have the experience and will win the league this season.

BY.. its an incredible amount of money that they have spent but like Ste says we have the experience and will do far better than the rich kings of chelsea.

Are you not worried about the Mourinho factor and the fact that the current Champions Arsenal have shown they can destroy any team in their way.

Ste..no. Chelsea have never won the Champs League so why should we worry about them ? Arsenal, well last season was a fluke they will never ever be known as the perfect dream team like united.

BY..I am concerned about Arsenal, Chelsea have no bottle or experience. they may be the richest but we are simpy the best. Arsenal will probably just get all the good decisions and we will suffer horrendous injuries or something like that !

Can you explain last weeks defeat then or the Charity Shield result ?

Ste..both flukey results and should not reflect on the current expertise of man utd.

BY..Chelsea were lucky, Arsenal were fortunate that our team was decimated by injuries.

Manu are supposed to be the biggest club of them all, how come you have no money for transfers ?

Ste...we are a PLC not a football club, we have to make big bucks to spend big bucks, remember we spent 30 million on Ferdinand and in todays money he would probably be worth no more than say 13 million so thats a hit of around 17 mill ! At the end of the day any player worth his salt would walk to old trafford to pull on our shirt.

BY...who said we cant. We are worth 850 million. We can buy whoever and whatever we want !

What about Alan Shearer and his refusals to join your club ?

Ste...Jack Walker spooked that deal, that is the only reason why he didnt join us oh by the wya he is a greedy @#/? !

BY...Alan who ?

So then lads, whats your real views on BRFC and what do you see in the future for them ?

Ste...a good little team, a decent set of fans however I was surprised a few years ago when a lot of them cheered as Arsenal scored 4 at your place. Cant see BRFC ever challenging for any honours in the near future. Your youth team looks as good as ours was when we had giggs,scholes and co.

BY...dont really have any views. Have a decent squad,a nice ground and a good set of fans. Your stewards are tossers as they try and make us sit down! Can see them struggling to survive unless of course you get homer referees like you did when you bought the league.

How about a prediction for Saturday ?

Ste....3-0 Man U

BY....4-1 Man U

How about a treble for a 1-0 win for Rovers, its been the score for the past 2 seasons ?

Ste...who is the ref ?

BY...no chance

What type of team can we expect to see ?

Ste...a team of superstars

By...the first eleven that Fergie selects.

finally....

will you be there ?

Ste....no got to go shopping and have other committments at dinner time.

BY...can you get me a ticket for the Blackburn End ? Otherwise no I will watch it at my friends house !

jan

all 5 are not the type of manager we need at Ewood.

IF there was or is to be a replacement in the managers role then there are really only 3 options for Rovers.

Gordon Strachan

George Graham

Mark Hughes

All 3 above have lots of qualities whereas your 5 have really got nothing to offer more than our current manager. You may as well have suggested stanly turnip !

I would suggest that if Souness could ever bury the hatchet with Old Big Nose Thompson then we may get a better response on the coaching side. Pinnocio has shown he has decent tactical nouse and could do a job with our defenders.

The rest of the team know their abilities and responsibilites (I think!).

eit

the only thing you forgot was the dickead referee !!

apparently

paul luggy sturrock is going to be available from Monday !!

maybe le sulks elbow may have knocked some common dog into yorkies head !

we shall see latd

all flitcroft did was take the place of a player who could have done so much better. He was a waste of the shirt and completely out of the game.

paul gallagher or anyone else (even Douglas) could have done a much better job.

Maybe he had his forthcoming move on his mind !

whats all this andy cole business ?

who cares what he did today, does tomorrow and in the future ?

he systematically began to drain our club dry and gave nothing or little in return following the well publicised spat. Let him go he is a mercenary and a foolham player now.

whats next

andy cole again ?

ffs we are still 14th !

we are in a lot better position than other teams who do have money.

lets wait and see, no need to push the panic button just yet.

I really think the time to judge is after 10 games, lets wait till then and if it needs changing then I am sure the club will change it.

we could even be the west indies management

now they really are in the poo !!

7-0

ditto

could be worse we could be newcastle united !
