Zulu Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 Maradonna? I think I may have just popped a rib. That would be a brilliant appointment. Pure comedy gold.

Mr. E Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 Also, just to qualify for the World Cup under Maradona, Argentina had to score an injury time goal vs Peru or something of the sort.
Exiled_Rover Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 Maradona? (Please don't use that word again) off. I'll boo the #### each week.
grizfoot Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 Diouf's "dive" for Notlob against us was just as bad as "The Hand of God" in my opinion.
67splitscreen Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 And where is all this spending going to end up. We could be talking 100s of millions aka City here. Very worried.
Exiled_Rover Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 hand ball! We should just chant that when he's introduced - for 10 minutes, then all walk out.
Kennys Magic Hat Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 This is great! Big Sam is gone and within hours there's already more excitement than we've had in the last three seasons! I'd rather us go down and be entertained rather than endure the dull frustrating percentage based set piece loving lump it in the box to a big man and play from there football Allardyce forced on us.
LeChuck Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 Le Chuck, you are a fool??? He would be awful as manager!!! Maradona is nothing most than a CHEAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He comes as manager or in any role with the club, then I will be returning my season ticket!!!!! Again...the prerequisite to tolerating a Maradona appointment is that a proven, experienced number two is also appointed. Clarke, Hughton, Wilkins (good shout TCO). To be honest I can't rationalise more than that, because it doesn't make much rational sense. The phrase "that's so crazy it just might work!" comes to mind. You might wanna tone down the use of exclamation marks when calling people 'fool', as it makes your post look rather..errr..foolish. Mind you, you also bafflingly posed it as a question.
Zulu Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 It would HAVE to be with an experienced, British number two though, hence me mentioning Steve Clarke. Would Chris Hughton accept being a number two again I wonder? Not sure about Hughton or Clarke. You might get Megson though. Maradonna and Megson - it's got a certain ring to it, don't you think? A marriage made in heaven.
chaddyrovers Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 Nothing more than a cheat? Not one of the greatest players ever then? So thats Maradonna or Jewell that would make you return your ticket, any others you wish to inform the club of? Did he not cheat in a game against England by hand balling the ball into the net (world cup 86)!!! Also did you not take drugs to enhance his playing performance in the world cup 94!!! He is a cheat!!!

I cant believe people with such stupid views exist. The goal is to remain financially afloat and in the premier league. This club means so much to so many people; If it were to go down to the championship or go down the same route pompey did with shady owners and flash buying with no long term planning many people would lose jobs, the community will lose a valuable source of income, and least importantly we will lose the pleasure of seeing the famous blue and white halves gracing the premier league. You should be ashamed of yourself
beerwins Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 TCO took drugs to help Maradonna play better! how did that work?

You really should read posts properly before replying like that. TCO took drugs to help Maradonna play better! how did that work? I missed that.
youaremyturkíshdelight Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 I reckon we just make Chimbonda player/Coach. That would be ace.
Nate Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 No ###### way He was at Fulham the other week, wasn't he?
True Blue & White Posted December 13, 2010 Author Posted December 13, 2010 Venky's are into pharmaceuticals right, maybe they invented a pill that makes him 25 again and we're gonna play him just in front of Andrews?
tony gale's mic Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 This is great! Big Sam is gone and within hours there's already more excitement than we've had in the last three seasons!

Yeah. Until we're playing the likes of Doncaster and Scunthorpe every week. That'll be exciting, won't it!
Earlydoors Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 It would HAVE to be with an experienced, British number two though, hence me mentioning Steve Clarke. Would Chris Hughton accept being a number two again I wonder? Poyet ? He might be crazy enough to understand him
ERIKS666 Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 Mr Nixon what have you done the whole of blackburn won't sleep tonight now incase this nightmare may come true or are we all dreaming and wake up in the morning as nothing has happened
Kelbo Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 Greatest player in the world?? Maradonna? The Germans found him out after he'd done England, they knew he was a one footed wonder and made him go to his right foot, nullified the bloody cheat, hate him as a player and a person!!
47er Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 I share your excitement - lets not forget that though King Kenny attracted the players - and was no doubt a great motivator - it was Ray Harford that was the tactical genius behind us winning the title. Maradonna would need the right coach alongside him - and Venky's would need to provide serious funds to not only attract him - but the quality of player he would no doubt demand. Maradonna wouldn't come to Rovers to stay mid-table - he would have CL expectations - and those don't come cheap. To be honest it is the type of bold move that Rovers fans have been after for years - though personally I would prefer to go after Beckham as player coach if they are determined to go for profile. No excitement from me. Maradonna would be an absolute disaster. To all who wanted Sam gone--------happy now?
nicko Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 It's been a long day and I need my bed. I heard the Maradona thing last week - via a very well-informed chap - and thought it was some kind of kid-on. However the concept of bringing in someone who would put the owners on a worldwide map makes sense. The only question is what role they see the wee man playing. Manager, technical director, who knows. So DON'T be betting him being manager. You could end up losing on a technicality. You may recall that Diego flew in from Spain to London about three weeks ago...the same weekend Rovers were taken over. The fact that Sam was so swiftly dismissed tells me the Venky's people have had some sort of success chasing who they want. Kentaro, incidentally, also have very good South American contacts. The whole thing makes you think. Strange days indeed. No questions please. All puffed out.
True Blue & White Posted December 13, 2010 Author Posted December 13, 2010 Also did you not take drugs to enhance his playing performance in the world cup 94!!! He is a cheat!!! No I didn't, but in case you are referring to Maradona then I don't think cocaine is particularly performance enhancing (unless you're entering a lip chewing competition)
Backroom Tom Posted December 13, 2010 Backroom Posted December 13, 2010 TCO took drugs to help Maradonna play better! how did that work? They're on to me This is scary as hell at the mo, should I feel guilty for finding it exciting though?
beerwins Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 They're on to me Do you have a timeshare on your nostrils ?
