[Archived] Steve Kean Thread (Poll reset after Stoke game)

[OJRovers]

Could we bribe the person who puts the music on at Ewood to put on 'Drive' by The Cars on? Seems written for Kean:

Drive Lyrics:

Who's gonna tell you when

It's too late

Who's gonna tell you things

Aren't so great

You can't go on

Thinking nothing's wrong

Who's gonna drive you home tonight

Who's gonna pick you up

When you fall

Who's gonna hang it up

When you call

Who's gonna pay attention

To your dreams

Who's gonna plug their ears

When you scream

You can't go on

Thinking nothing's wrong

Who's gonna drive you home tonight

Some great 'art work' involving Kean !

Unfortunately, I'm a bit of technophobe, so can't do it myself. However, I think it would be a great idea if someone could circulate these pieces of 'art' to various media. Who knows, on a 'slow' news day, we might just get a feature !

You only need some post-its!

Lets get it going. I guess a lot of you have more suitable windows than me to put out the message on!

Wtf are those ?

Easy. Just climb it on the window.

If this is true, then it's great news.

Kean believing his job is safe no matter what, along with the players also thinking the situation is acceptable is bad, bad, bad. People work better under pressure. Anything else just leads to complacency.

The likes of Dunn coming out and saying all is well, fans are over-reacting and we should get real came across as a huge warning sign.

Complacency from well-paid performers will see us going down. Dunn's years as a Prem footballer seem to have divorced him from reality a touch and he seems to be living in a millionaire's bubble.

Either the likes of him sort out their empty heads and realise the severity of the danger we are in or we should be looking to offload them.

This is no time for "get real" statements.

[FourLaneBlue]

Furthermore, it's probably not a good idea for someone has been relegated from the Premiership twice to be telling others how to be feeling or acting when their team has 4 points from 7 games and is in the relegation zone.

From my office in the 5th floor in Aalesund, Norway:

Good work try and get one from the outside aswell (may need a boat )

[Hi Mack]

I don't get it.

Lol the "N" is wrong isnt it?

The joy of Post its, easily changed!

Seen from the road on the way into Aalesund town. You have to tilt your head.

I didnt know how to rotate it.

Hignett not keen on Steve

Saw the sky footage of the Pune trip, interesting seeing the relationship of Kean and the B.Roa, they had a hand shake and smile then a hug and then a what must be their secret handshake.

Looked way too friendly and attached, Kean obviously created this great friendship with is making it hard for them to split business and pleasure.

Interesting that Venkys are making £120 million profit a year according to Sky.

[T4E]

Further evidence that Sky talk sh*t.

[Stuart]

I quite like the idea of clever, creative Kean Out signs from all over the globe.

Although there could be a danger of it backfiring and making Kean a cult hero.

[roversnick]

Did anybody see the Football League Show on bbc1 on Saturday night?

In one of the post match interviews, a manager whos team had not won gave an interview saying something along the lines of "yes we had 18 shots, it is great to have 18 shots in a game, but its goals that count, at the end of the day who cares how many shots you have"

Take note Mr Kean, take note.

That would only happen if Ricky Gervais and Steven Merchant started turning up at his press conferences

[Mercer]

Seemingly, Kean "not quite been himself" since "frank discussion" with Raos. Heard this from two sources this morning.

Mr Bullsh1t seemingly very quiet !!!

Kamy mentioning rumours about 2 matches.

Hmmm, perhaps all isn't lost just yet.

Hope Glen and co and keep up the pressure and media focus.

[DE.]

I very much hope the owners have given him an ultimatum - the sooner we get a proper manager in the better. In an ideal world it'd be "3 points on saturday or you're out" (well, in an ideal world he wouldn't be manager at all, but best case scenario...), worst case scenario he's been given til xmas time to pick up results, by which point it'll most likely be too late anyway.

Someone should get a Steve keen face tattoo on their bum.

[Andy]

I don't quite remember Kidd having an unbeaten tenure as Rovers manager...

[G Somerset Rover]

Blimey, Ince's record really was guff. Has Keano Grigio really got to get below that before Venky's act?!

I hope not as he would need to lose or draw his next 6 games going off my maths and we would be adrift by then.

This sort of thing don't usually do it for me, but I asked Lars Bohinen earlier on twitter if he would retweet #KEANOUT,

Being the star he is, he obliged top guy, made my evening :-)
