15 years too late!

Not a very hounourable man as we know only too well.

Track record, Crap in last 10 years and living on reputation.

Why swap one lier for another?

Press making up stories to sell crap newspapers.

Give me strength, forget it and get on with life:L

Per Wikipedia, Sven's record going back 10 years:

England, January 2001- July, 2006: 59.7% wins (40/67 wins).

Manchester City, July, 2007-June, 2008: 42.22% wins (19/45 wins).

Mexico City, June 2008- April, 2009: 46.15% wins (6/13 wins).

Coite d'Ivoire, March-June, 2010: 40% wins (2/5 wins).

Leicester City, October 2010-2011: 43.64% wins (24/55 wins).

Lifetime win percentage: 51.71% (905 total games of which 468 were wins). Over the last decade his win percentage is 49.18%. Though it does appear that around 80% of Sven's matches were played prior to 2002.

On the other hand, Kean has won 6 matches in 31 PL games, or a 19.35% win percentage.

All things considered, Sven would be forward progress if appointed manager. We might actually survive relegation.

But not if Kean is allowed to stay on as manager with Sven being placed in the Director of Football role. One of the many positives of getting rid of Kean is not having to see his face or twisted words for pre- and post- match interviews.

I'd still prefer it to what we have now. In these situations the manager usually becomes marginalised and gets sacked anyway.

Based on past rumors and allegations, it would be Kean undermining Sven. He needs to go so the person in charge (whether that is Sven or someone else) can actually focus on getting the team winning, as opposed to checking his back to make sure no daggers are stuck in it.

Well I don't really want Sven but at least he has some comedy value.

Oh that made me laugh out loud. Love it.

We might still lose but we can have a good laugh on the way. Definite improvement.

I think it's important with Erikkson that the job fits him properly, coaching Mexico did not fit him, he and Leicester parted after they lost to Millwall 3-0, a surprising big loss there at home but otherwise, the Club was doing fairly well so, that was probably rash to let him go, Leicester has had 7 managers in 4 and a half years. I don't think his specialty is to come in and help a Club in trouble as we know some other managers do but perhaps he could.

Hey we are on the same side here:

Just do not trust Sven as I blame him for for our relegation the last time: Jack Walker (god bless his soul) chose Sven as our manager and he agreed but said he wanted to serve his contract at Sampadoria, which we thought and Jack thought was fair enough. Tony Parkes took over in the interim and did a wonderful job under the circumstaces but he was only ever temporary. That left a void were we could not attract players or sell on players. In the meantime we had an ageing team with certain players ruling the roost, so to speak, resulting in cliques being formed within the playing squad (Tim sherwood should hang his head in shame).

Damage done Sven who we learn is not very honourable after all says he is not going to come and takes over at Lazio. However damage is done and we take Woy Hodgson who is ok as a coach but hasn't got the necessary skill (ok, bottle) to sort the mess he has inherited.

Result relegation was inevitable!

That is why I dont want Sven. Don't get me wrong I want rid of Kean as much as anyone and Norwich proved why. We were winning in style then he makes substitutions effectively asking Norwich to come on and they did. The penalty at the end was unlucky but was asked for. He is an absolute muppet.

But please not Sven!!!

If the difference is between a competent snake and an incompetent snake managing our club, I'll go with the competent snake.

Just another frigging yes man to appease the fans, well known throughout the world of football to do as he is told and earn his paycheck.

Ask yourself the bigger question if Kean needs help and is seen to be failing as a manager why is he still the manager? If they can afford to employ Sven they can afford to sack Kean.

I want to see Kean and Jerome anderson out on their arse and a full management team and chairman come in until that happens you wont see any change in Rovers fortunes.

Sven is a a option that Blackburn are looking at. I don't want him as a manager but if it makes kean to go so be it and sven ends up getting a short term deal.

Is this the good news you were talking about?

I can't believe some of you even if Sven comes in as a DOF it would be better as he is the sort of person to see where we are going wrong defensively and urge coco to sort it out could be a good thing because we can't go on like this after today it was just painful to watch.
