[Archived] Nicko's Thread

Give him the job and see how he handles it. Call his bluff.

Exactly what needs to be done, it's the only way to exorcise this demon. If and when he fails then the next manager coming in has a decent chance of being left to get on with the job.

The fall-out cloud from Sams sacking continues to settle.

[Mozzer]

Well many apologies. Has Google made it to Blackburn? I need to know because I'm going to move from London to Blackburn in a fortnight, and if Google doesn't work there I may have to reconsider.

The Romford Recorder is full of Blackburn transfer gems this week, but the top football story involves ... erm ... Romford. Where the refs are as unpopular as they are at Ewood, judging by what their manager has to say ...

(here)

Who knows what might be in the Cobham Chronicle ... personally I don't even think it exists. I'd stick to the Bank Top Bugle if I were you Mozzer - you can't go wrong with that.

all i did was say what was on another forum(and its not like its a bad forum), the rovers website forum, and then im told all my 300 posts are a joke..thats quite rude..

i dont even know them papers..all i did was put it across to nicko..sorry if that hurt you so bad for me to check if theres anything in it..

Sky know very little about anything.

Ian Singleton from the LET has just been on The Bee radiostation talking about the Bulgarian we have on trial at Ewood who is as fast as Carl Lewis and can run 100m in 10 seconds.

[brian_gallagher85]

Please tell me he commented on Deschamps ferrit fetish too!

Ha Ha! If we do sign him - I'd be interested to see how many people still claim he's the fastest white man alive

Hughes's odds are dropping again, d'oh

Oh well. Lets look at it this way: he's still not a proven regular in the Prem. Not quaranteed that he will be a success for them. What happens if he's not starting every game? Throws another hissy fit?

[RevidgeBlue]

There may be positive Amdy Faye news later...

He isn't coming?

[nicko]

I'm a bit puzzled at this talk that Faye can't come because you can't play for three clubs in one season.

A quick check on Jon Stead's record last season shows that he turned out for Sunderland, Derby and Sheffield United - all in the same campaign.

Maybe FIFA should have a look at that one.

didnt they have trouble with masherano though, or was that because he was going on loan?

if we buy him, i dont see any problem

There was a snag at first but he played for Liverpool in the end. Should not really be a problem.

We're just hoping for a problem

I hope Rover's purse string holders are kind to Sparky in a similar way should he choose to stay. Would be a nice thank you present.

I think they let Mascherano off because of the contract/ownership dispute.

Sorry, but I think Arry is spoiled!

Kevin Blackwell has just been sacked by Luton Town...nice people.

Heh Heh, I quite liked that!

[T4E]

I thought he was leaving there next month anyway?

[nicko]

Blackwell put in his notice because of the way the administrators were doing business.

Now there is a potential takeover - and a future - and he could have stayed. But he got the bullet about 15 minutes ago.

It's some game.

Absolute joke! The poor guy hasn`t been paid in months and this is how they treat him.

[Plastic Head]

Who the f...is Fatih Terim...?

From no-where to second favourite for Newcastle on Betfair...?
