[Archived] Henning Berg - Rovers Manager

[JAL]

Why Blackburn Rovers should have shelved their Christmas party

http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2012/dec/19/blackburn-rovers-christmas-party?

One thing from this is that it tells us that Henning Berg is definitely no leader .

[greco]

is that really true prestonblue.?

so employees are forbidden to tell their family and friends, if they had a good night or not and what they enjoyed and didnt enjoy. CRAZY!

[BPF]

Berg is a decent man and a good manager. I believe he'll get us to a playoff spot, provided the board doesn't sabotage him.

On the subject of the board, they're a collection of weasels. Agnew, Shaw and Singh should be shown the door ASAP.

Comments like this amaze me.

What has he done to show that?

[DE.]

It should have been a staff-only party, that's for sure. No problem with the staff getting a party as it must be hell working for the idiots at Ewood... but the players? They should be waiting tables and serving drinks.

[Mike Graham]

is that really true prestonblue.?!

Yep, it has happened before when witch hunts have taken taken place to find out which staff member started xyz rumour, leak etc.

I am sure they can say all is dandy and rosy at the Ewood and Brockhall mad houses, they cannot leak any information nor make critical comments. So next time you see or hear a Rovers employee it will be all smiles and you will be told those Mr Singh, Agnew, Shelfpack are nice nice fellows and we love our jobs.

kim young il would have been proud.

drog: you didnt leave any stone unturned, in your mission to blast ince. He was a mumbling dummy, who you thought were dyslexic. So were you too, enjoying his and the clubs demise.?

Gav: the amount of retarded posts you´ve made about allardyce, calling him fat, whalrus and what not, was insane. You even posted you´d rather go down, then have allardyce in charge, with his boring football. Were you enjoying the clubs demise too.?

i dont know how old you guys are, but im guessing pretty old, as it seems like dementia has set in. Quite pitifull to see you guys attack jim, when you´ve done exactly same.

i dont think either of you guys were or are enjoying it and neither is anyone else, so why even discuss it?

Our club is in a mess, so getting succes is definetly harder under those circumstances, but lets not forget, that both kean and black worked under those circumstances aswell and did much better. So we can easely compare their results. Jim´s and other posters critisism of berg is spot on. HE HAS DONE WORSE THEN KEAN, UNDER THE EXACT SAME CIRCUMSTANCES:!

regarding this dinner incident, who gives a flying @#/?. I´m amazed a bunch of grown men, sitting behind their computer screen, are trying to impersonate dr phil or freud, while analyzing the situation.

I NEVER called Allardyce any of the comments attributed to me above, so if you're going to play the game lets get it right eh!

Try supporting the manager, he's been here for 9 games FFS, you're just another example of a supporter thats never seen the bad times and wants instant success.

[greco]

well gav, im quite sure you did. Impossible to prove either way,as the old post with derogatory remarks are gone. I´ll give you the benefit of the doubt though.

But you did state, that you loved he was sacked, the timing was great and kean should be given a chance. Apparently you like giving losers a chance, but go for the jugular when it´s a winner.

You also stated several times, without any proof what so ever, that sam only wanted to win certain games and couldnt give a @#/? about others. Basically Questioning his professionalism. Berg is losing both home and away, does this mean he couldnt give a @#/? about all the games we play.?

ahhh first it´s "you want the club to fail" and now it´s "you want instant succes". Going from one extreme to another, you sound a bit confused.

my point stlll stands, you didnt want to support a succesfull manager in sam, but at this moment in time, you are crying out for us to support a manager who is losing and doing worse then kean. You are blasting others for critisizing a losing manager, while you attacked a succesfull one and then you have the nerve to tell jim he wants the club to fail. If anyone is supoorting failure, its actually you and not jim.

You also assured us Obama would lose the election and think US citizens have a constitutional right to gun down 20 children so why should anyone take anything you say seriously ?

That kind of post should stay in ICBINF.

Personal politics have nothing to do with football opinions - you of all people should know that.

Oh, and your assertion against Steve in that inflammatorily worded post is both disgusting and incorrect.

You need to have a serious think about what's banter and what should NEVER be used to prove a point. You need some help.

Stupid post from someone losing the plot, have a word with yourself Jim.

[ABBEY]

he had a pop in the gun thread for his comments in there as well.

Well greco you're wrong

Allardyce is West Hams manager not ours

Maybe you should put more effort into supporting the current manager instead of living in the past

[martonrover]

There's a clear difference between expressing concerns about the manager on here and giving him flak at the games.

Berg has not had any grief during games and I don't see that changing no matter how bad things get.

He was the global idiot's appointment and he will continue to be the one in the firing line.

[Rover_Shaun]

Martonrover is right. We can all air our thoughts here but it doesn't mean were going to go to Ewood this Saturday and do anything other than support the side and then slink home without a glance towards the pitch when the whistle goes on another disappointing defeat

He was getting flak at Blackpool

Well if he was it was a tiny minority.

I was there and all I heard were chants against Singh and Venky's.

A minority yes but it started to grow, which is half the reason pockets of our fans were after kicking lumps out of each other again. It was more than a small minority chanting "Henning Henning sort it out" too.

I wouldn't count 'Henning, Henning sort it out' as flak, more encouragement.

Let's hope for a pleasant surprise on Saturday, but if it doesn't materialise I would wager the abuse will be aimed squarely at Singh & Venky's.

you missed a couple of questions gav, they should be really really easy to answer. Atleast if your opinion has some consistency, when it comes to supporting, or not supporting your club and its manager. As its christmas, my faith in people grows and that goes for you too, so im looking forward to reading you answer, to the qestions i asked, in my previous post

In regards to your last sentence, i´ll refer you to martinrover and blue and white army´s posts. I´ll just add this, take a look at my location gav, hopefully that will reassure you, that im not causing any trouble at our games

[Rover_Shaun]

Henning sort it out is a far cry from Henning Out.

He certainly needs to put all the players in a big sack and beat it with a stick

Big difference between giving him personal abuse which is what the last one deserved and got-and berating him for not making changes when quite plainly we were having a shocker. Quite how you don't even give Dunny the last 25 or 30 minutes in the circumstances of that game makes you wonder why we bother naming any subs.Admittedly you wouldnt exactly think Dunny coming on would win it for us but to come out and say he was happy with the efforts of the team was pretty Keanesque by anybody's standards.

He hasn't appeared to be either a tactical or motivational genius as yet and all the other new managers around the same time have got some sort of bounce factor from their teams except us.That tells you the internal atmosphere around the Club is totally don't give a sh1t negative no doubt with the Global Idiot waltzing round in his training kit.The place is in disarray from top to bottom and to blame all of that on a guy with only 6 weeks behind him is probably why the fans are a bit forgiving.But it won't go on much longer and actually Parsonblue nailed it in his Blackpool match report on the front page by saying complete apathy has kicked in and the Club is becoming an irrelevance to alot of long standing fans.

Next stop meltdown on the highway to oblivion

Seeing as I forecast his failure to perfection before he'd even started I'll take your observation as a complement.

[roverandout]

sorry gav, i have been through the bad times, like last time we were relegated and this is far worse, then we had jack walker and john williams and a poor manager, this time we have a load of clowns and a very poor manager with no sign we can turn it around, i dont beleive for one minute berg will get us promoted nor do i beleive he is anything other than a pundit trying his hand at management, he was @#/? appointment and i will stand by that from now till the end of the season when he is inevitably sacked.
