JDT was protecting his own reputation and future employment by shining a light on the incompetence of his employer. Almost saying “this isn’t my fault”

Now he has left, as much as I’d love him to continue, it’s not in his interests to be seen as vindictive against the club.  Ultimately he only did it for his own needs, but it just happened to align with the interest of the fans. And was quite funny.

Has JDT slagged off the swedish FA ?

Of course only some fans realised this.

Plenty of others thought he was ‘negative’ and ‘toxic’.

Interesting that JDT has not mentioned the shitshow since leaving. Not a criticism of him but ironic that as an employee/contracted party he could speak more freely than as an ex employee/contracted partner.

Sums up the wacky world of football 

Probably part of the terms of his release contract

Not yet 🤣😉 (I meant that he did it here but not a word afterwards. As others have said - smart - but it would be fun with a little q&a on his time at the club 🥳)

In the future JDT will be looking for a club job. It would not look good to potential employers, for him to have slagged off previous employers.

No excuses 

Here are all the excuses 

But we don't do excuses we just get on with it

 

He is such a tool. Why does he say this stuff in interviews

He would have signed an NDA

"Roll out sleeves up and get on with it"

Can't wait for them to actually do that.

One win in 12 games is it? Surely even these dense twats can figure out that it's better to just shut the fuck up until we actually have some decent form?

I suppose when there is absolutely no expectation of anything from anyone in a position of power what do you expect.

Haha too true.

I'm going back to not reading his comments again. LT sucked me in with the no excuse culture heading

He bought out of his contract - so I seriously doubt he signed an NDA.

It just doesn't benefit him to talk about Blackburn Rovers and our management in his current role.

They still would be terms and conditions contract to him leaving even if he did buy himself out of contract

[Upside Down]

Good to see that things have been tightened up at the back.

[BRFC4EVA]

Should walk tonight for those subs alone. Pathetic

[roversfan99]

1 win in how many games is it now? 

[Dan]

 

[G Somerset Rover]

Worst subs in living memory. Kept the one bloke on who was hellbent on letting them smack it in our goal everytime they got the ball.

I want some brutal honesty tonight for once or he can fuck off too.

Your thoughts on the manager? Will we get relegate?

If we don’t it isn’t because he is any good. I considered him to be a fraud, but after come impressive away win, thought perhaps he deserves a bit of slack. He is out of his depth and will not make a success of this gig.

We need to check he hasn’t got a relegation bonus. 

[DackDackGoose]

Eager to hear his reasonings.. tactically that was lost before a ball was kicked.

[wilsdenrover]

Win percentage = 7.69 

[roverblue]

If the owners had any real interest in the club they would be considering sacking him tonight. It’s been an abysmal return of points and that’s a performance that showed no effort or affection for the club.

It’s a result you can’t just gloss over, ears should be ringing in the dressing room and a new captain in place for Saturday.

[NeilInBristol]

Please change this title. He is not my head coach. He is a tool.

He currently coaches rovers but he certainly isn't "our head coach"

[roversfan99]

He repeated post match that we have been "fantastic" in his time here up until tonight. Weve won 1 in 12. Kean, Coyle, Berg and Appleton will (I think) all have better win records.
