[Archived] BRFCS Podcast #5

[Brfcrule1]

Kamy for a future podcast could you suggest to the owners maybe bringing Tugay back in some capacity as a no.2 or coaching role. Please let us know their views as I feel after today the whole structure @ Rovers is not right,& as Tugay is such a well respected character would at least show they listen to the opinions of the fans.

Podcast #5 is in the bag and J*B is kindly doing the editing this week.

Our guest, a certain Mr Alan Nixon was excellent, even better than we'd hoped for. At one point he'd got us all so enthralled we had to remind Kamy that he could talk too

... and for those that don't enjoy Nicko's offerings, at least you'll get to hear him admit he was wrong!

So, something for everyone.

[bringdunnback]

Excellent news that you have got nicko, when can we expect it? By the end of today?

[Glenn]

Hopefully, yes.

[Guest Wen Y Hu]

Out Now! This week Wen & Kamy are joined by Alan “Nicko” Nixon to talk about our start to the season against Wolves, transfers, journalism and how things have changed at Rovers since Venky’s took over.

Thanks guys, looking forward to listening!

[BangkokRover]

Excellent podcast Nicko was a great guest. Looking forward to number 6 :-)

[Herbie6590]

Best one yet - Nicko on top form - comes across better verbally than in his Mirror scribblings imho

[canuckroversfan]

Great podcast, so nice to hear some rovers talk all the way here in Canada where everybody focuses on the top clubs. Great guest with nicko

[chaddyrovers]

great work on the podcast by guys. thanks for doing.

Nicko was a great guest. hope in does another with Kamy and Wen Y Hu just after the transfer window closes.

thought Nicko explain alot more in detail and was great to listen to him. Nicko spoken alot of sense about behind the scenes at rovers, the owners and Kean.

[mr bishi]

The amount of sense spoken by Nicko is unreal.

[Tooogs]

Nicko is BANG on the money on pretty much everything.

It was mentioned that the loudspeakers were too loud in the ground yesterday. We asked John Newsham about it and he said that apparently Radio Rovers had been asked to turn them down at previous matches and had declined to do so. The sound system has been pretty rough for some time now though and maybe something needs to be done about it. Fairly urgently, I'd say, it was pretty unbearable yesterday.

Good podcast, thanks to all concerned.

[roverwhelmed]

Fantastic podcast again. Thank you.

[Kamy100]

Thanks for the feedback.

Huge thanks to Nicko for coming on and bring so open and honest. Fascinating insight into things.

More guests lined up and definitely have Nicko on again sometime in the future.

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

Excellent work guys. Hope the Venkys listen to this one!

[roverandout]

i always like listening to nicko, liked when he said he wrote out owen coyle's cv to get the burnley job. spoke about how jack gets things done, wish we could day the same about our current owners.

[philipl]

Excellent stuff.

Nicko really was the smiling assassin of Venky's there.

- confirmed the money problems (but of course all this MB knew since December that the mortgage expired at end June)

- total inexperience behind the scenes (seriously damaging Rovers)

- line of command completely changed with a team who know nothing about Blackburn Rovers and the transfer market

- more backroom and business people going than coming with no replacements by equivalents

- timing of changes all wrong

- decision making still completely confused to the extent that nobody answered the phone when Paul Jewell tried to take Andrews on loan

- use of agents bordering on the farcical; Venky's not used the right ones

- Venky's taken by surprise by what SEM/Kentaro and firing Sam cost

- using family and friends is not the thing to do (we are a PREMIER LEAGUE TEAM turning over c£60m, not a chicken coop)

- we need expertise (ie we have no expertise)

- the damage from this window will be great

- the comments about how we are going about transfers especially Mongongu was extremely damning.

[AggyBlue]

Excellent stuff.

It's time nicko flew to Pune to give these people some advice

Most of his comments are so obvious, how can Venky's and their advisors not see them?

[John]

Nice story about Paul Jewell trying to get in contact....

[Kelbo]

I think a few people on here from the onset have posted that Venkys have no idea what they are doing, so they cant see things they should be seeing, they are not receptive to proper advice as they view that as dissent, we really are in a dreadful mess at the moment, the whole football world can see it, most on here can see it and looking at Kean on Saturday, I think even Mr Positive himself can now see it.

[RovertheHill]

Great podcast guys - best one yet. In a bizarre way that has made me feel slightly more positive

[magicalmortensleftpeg]

Great to hear from Nicko. Those people who routinely come out and say that he has an anti Rovers agenda should give this a listen. Guy talks a heck of a lot of sense. Good job guys.

[donnermeat]

Cracking work fellas, keep up the good work!

Don't know what I would do without these podcasts.

[Paul]

Stupid question but I'm failing miserably with this. Is it possible to download the podcast to an iPhone? I do this regularly with radio programmed but can't with BRFCS.
