[Archived] Steve Kean

[thenodrog]

The guy has no shame by not resigning.

Do you really think Anderson will allow that to happen? I think hell would freeze over first.

[Mattyblue]

It is his taking credit for our long standing home record that exposes hm for the charlatan that he is.

YOU have won 2 from 9, Steve.

[Kelbo]

I don't remember harbouring such hate for a manager until now.

Agree 100% cant even stand the sight of his face!

[thenodrog]

And here's a great example:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2011/apr/18/everton-blackburn-rovers-premier-league?

Open derision.

The bloody nerve of the man is incredible. This statement is deserving of tar and feathering the bugger and running him out of town.

"Now we've got two games back to back at home and we've been great at home. We can go and take big steps instead of little ones. We've only lost seven games out of 41 or 42 at Ewood, we're in very good form there."

[thenodrog]

We are in deep, deep trouble. Only way we can get out of this is that players like Samba, Salgado, Nelsen and Dunny take control of the situation and rally the troops into a couple of MASSIVE performances.

There is only one person who is available and who commands the respect of the squad and possesses the leadership skills and ability to save us at this late stage. Unfortunately false pride and crass stupidity will rule that out.

Unfortunately even if they had the balls to approach him I'd imagine Sam's terms would include meeting the slum dog millionaires in the centre circle just before the next match and kicking the arses all the way off the pitch..... before sticking one on the bald backstabber's nose end.

That's what got my back up. Hiding behind the achievements of his predecessor. The man is all nerve and no shame. I'm absolutely disgusted and could not stomach him as manager whether we we miraculously survived or not. "Nice man" my arse.

I'd pay good money to see that Theno.

This got through the Google decency filter, shocking.

[Sysagent]

I think the comment from Mr Kean is pretty indicative of the type of person we are dealing with here... It's quite obvious the guy has little or no scruples at all and would crap all over anyone for his own selfless promotion...

I just despair at how rapidly we have descended into this farce.

[Ivorsemion]

Hi all, i don't post on here very often - but just sent this to Andy Cryer in an attempt to provoke a response from our glorious leader:

Hi Andy,

as a rovers supporter who's gone through over 30 years of ups & downs - one thing has remained fairly constant, we've always been unfashionable, and as such, the national media have taken comparitively little interest in us.

We have, therefore, relied on our local newspaper to keep us up-to-date with the pressing issues & behind-the-scenes stories that every supporter wants to know.

It has become apparent over recent weeks that our 'manager' is becoming Nero-esque and fiddling whilst Rome burns.

Now, don't get me wrong, nobody wants to see a manager panicking, but to say that we've been 'fantastic at home' and we were 'excellent' in the first half at Everton???

Andy, i think i speak for the vast majority (if not all) rovers supporters when i say that we are no longer interested in reading the endless snippets of Kean-bilge that seems to make up the rovers section of the LT.

Please, Please, Please Andy - can you point out to Mr Kean - that over 90% of the clubs supporters (BRFCS.COM) have had enough of him, to the point where there IS talk of a demonstration BEFORE the Man City match?

Why are you ignoring the elephant in the room?

[Mattyblue]

Plus Ivor, 200 comments on the LT's own website on the Keano's post match comments story.

Can't say I've ever seen that many replies on there (the vast, vast majority scathing).

Surely they can't be ignored?

[onlyonejackwalker]

Is Kean still employed at the club? Amazing! Absolutely amazing. He is genuinely unsackable.

Nothing will change, unless we change it. The time for talk has long gone, we need to take decisive action immediately and remove Kean to unite the club. It is our only hope.

[Kamy100]

There is a real momentum building up against Kean with some people now looking to organise a Protest before the City game.

I have also managed to get Star News (Sky equivlent in India) interested in this story, hopefully they are going to cover this in the next few days and send a team up to Blackburn to get viewpoints of Rovers fans.

Meanwhile in Pune, it seems business as usual.

[Mattyblue]

Great stuff Kamy, time for action.

[imy9]

Well done Kamy, who knows may make them take notice.

[Kamy100]

We're not there yet, need to make sure Star do cover this properly and need to make sure that the piece that Star News do is about the feelings of Rovers fans (both positive and negative), although judging by the fans I have talked to today there isn't going to be much positive.

This getting aired in India WILL make Venky's take notice. Up until now they have been "cocooned" from the viewpoints of the fans, but this will hammer home the message (be at positive or negative).

[sharpysharps]

Hi guys,

This is my first post on here, I generally prefer to just come on here and read the thoughts of others as I find it helps seeing that others are just as frustrated and annoyed as I am with the current situation at Rovers.

Anyway, just reading Ivor's letter to Andy Cryer there and I couldn't help but reply. I have mixed thoughts on Cryer but I really think he needs to get our messages across to the 'manager' now. Strangely after our first defeat on this horrible run at home to Spurs, I came away from the game disapointed but actually quite confident as it was a pretty decent performance and I thought the team took the game to Spurs particularly in the first half.

HOWEVER, since then I believe we have witnessed one of the worst managers in Premier League history take our club down the table. IMO Kean seems to be playing on this act of being very positive just because thats what Venky's said about him. What I am wondering is what will Kean say if Rovers drop into the bottom 3 next weekend...will he still not consider us to be under the threat of relegation?

I sit in the Riverside stand and was at the Blackpool game right in front of the fella who threw his shirt and scarf onto the pitch and I actually wish that it had been caught on camera. I'm not one for doing that myself during a game but it pretty much summed up how most of us feel right? Really sad times to be a Rovers fan

[Kamy100]

Star are interested in this because they feel that the press coverage that these guys are getting because of what they have said and done is starting to harm "brand India".

This kind of stuff getting aired in India will also get other more influential business people contacting Venky's and asking what the heck are you doing, no way do the business community of India want all of them being tarred with the same brush.

[Moppy]

I just wonder if Kean and Venkys will still be talking about the Champion's League when we are in the Championship. Maybe Venkys meant the Championship and not the Champion's League anyway - or maybe they don't know the difference.

[A cup of beans]

There is a real momentum building up against Kean with some people now looking to organise a Protest before the City game.

(SHAKING MY HEAD). protests are senseless particularly before an important game.

stop getting your kicks from this situation. another clown

[roversmum]

Let's hope they make a good job of it, then, Kamy. How detailed is the information they have? Is there anything the rest of us can do? Venky's need knocking out of their cosy cocoon and to face up to what they have done to a very successful and historical business.

( I am not in support of a protest before the Man City game, that is NOT a good idea)

Really? And what has unquestioned support done for our points tally over the last 3 months?

The whole future of the club could be on the line, this 'get behnid the lads' routine is no longer enough.

(In response to Kamy's post; I am not in support of a protest before the Man City game, that is NOT a good idea)

I agree that a protest before the game will be counter productive, no matter what the feelings against Kean, have to support the players, they are our only hope.

Star have been reading various threads on here and other forums so they have an idea of the issues, and from what I can understand is that they want to send a team to Blackburn and interview fans, they don't want me or anyone to organise this for them, I think they want to stand in the town centre and interview fans. They have promised to let this site know if/when they intend to come to Blackburn.

11 voted to keep him?? Didn't realise we had so many dingles on the site

[sam_rovers]

From F365 winners and losers thread... telling us what we already know really

Steve Kean

Utterly out of his depth. Rovers have won just four of the 18 matches for which he has been in charge.

I'm more worried about the 15 that don't care!
