Kean said about Venky’s visit: “We had a board meeting that had been scheduled for three months.What we've always felt is that it was right to wait and get the points sorted out.

“Then we can decide who's going to be coming in and who's going out. We need to concentrate on the remaining games and getting the points required.

“Then, at the end of the season, we can sit down and have discussions about budgets, who we can bring in and who will be going out.”

Since when does the manager of a football club attend Board meetings? Part of the Executive role of the Board of Directors of a football club is to decide on whether to keep/sack the coach. If he is on the Board then he truely is unsackable.

Also sounds very ominous over the 'who will be going out' part.

Mass clearout of the remaining talent whether we stay up or go down.

what does Hunt do exactly ??? as it seems Kean does his role...

The way Kean portrayed himself as a superhero too when he first got the managers job.

"I decided to get on the plane to India to establish what the owners plans are"

Again, the actions of first team coach in temporary charge to bypass JW et all and hop on a plane.

With his agent pulling the strings I am sure it was all planned.

As David Conn said - Steve Kean, the coach promoted into Allardyce's chair, is himself represented by Anderson who, senior football sources say, has for years rated Kean as highly promising. Kean has already disregarded the time-honoured rules of caretaker management diplomacy, which dictate that coaches in his temporary position say they do not want the position full-time, at least at first.

I took my children on the ground tour today because I wanted them to see things as they should be at the ground in case anything should happen in the future... Saw some very interesting things (and have photographic evidence) – possible insights into Kean’s psyche?

Mark Exton (a very genial host – if anyone’s thinking of doing the tour, I would recommend it) explained that in the home changing room Kean had asked for some signs to be specially made to go round the upper border of the walls. I’m not sure if anyone’s mentioned these before but anyway, I kid you not, they read: ‘OUT WORK THE OPPOSITION’, ‘BE PROACTIVE INSTEAD OF REACTIVE’, ‘DOMINATE THE OPPOSITION’, ‘SCORE FIRST AND WIN THE GAME’ ‘RUTHLESS ON SET PLAYS’, ‘CLEAN SHEET MENTALITY’ and my particular favourite, ‘SCORE MORE GOALS’!!! I know footballers are not generally regarded as geniuses but, sheesh!

Also in that dressing room was a paper notice reading, ‘IT’S AMAZING WHAT CAN BE ACHIEVED WHEN NOBODY CARES WHO GETS THE CREDIT’ (oh the irony) and a Mohammed Ali quote, ‘THE WILL MUST BE STRONGER THAN THE SKILL’.

The dressing room also has a magnetic whiteboard mock up of the pitch adorned with little counters inscribed with team members’ initials. So your regular (ish) team and squad members are dotted around on this thing but there is a definite section to the side of it, where counters with these initials are stuck: RN, BE, RC, JR, ZA, NB and also VG and MS. Proof we’ll never be seeing Vince or Michel in a Rovers shirt again? It certainly seemed to be the ‘binned’ section of the board. But GG’s counter was definitely on the pitch.

Kean has his own little room near the changing room that has a huge mural on the back wall - a photo of a team huddle. Guess which player is star of the show, slap bang in the middle of the huddle? Scott Dann.

For those of you who’ve mentioned considering moving seats, we got to stand in Kean’s touchline position and I would say if you sat in W04 or maybe even W05, Kean would be able to see into the whites of your eyes, if that’s what you should desire.

Just to balance things out a little, I should probably finish off with the signs round the edge of the pitch: ‘It is an arrestable offence to pass beyond this point without lawful authority. Penalty £1000’.

I can also confirm that there are portraits of two people seemingly of Indian origin hanging in Jack’s Anna Louisa Suite but Jack’s portrait still looks out onto the pitch from just behind the window.

I've heard he's incredibly good at saying yes.

Just bought one of these online and sent it direct to Ewood in vain hope that it may replace him and his wage spent on some player with a modicum of talent.

The 10 pound bag of used cat litter that I sent to replace Kean was returned.

I wonder if he thought the Mighty Ducks was a documentary?

Things is though, given their recent performances, passion and refusal to lie down - it is not within the realms of deluded fantasy to think that qpr or wigan will pick up points this weekend. And they will actually have a belief that they will pick up points. So there is no pressure on them.

Us on the other hand........ We have listened to the clown bang on about keeping it tight at the back all chuffing season. And yet we have the second worse goals against, our defence is slacker than a horses fanny.

Trying to out psych other teams, give it a rest Coco.!!!! How about trying to out point the teams around us, all the pressure is on us we are a win adrift you goon!!!!!!!
