Great article ruined by this plank

This RJS bloke is almost constantly anti Eustace . Makes Eddie look like a huge fan.

There's also an account in there in the name of RoverEnd which sticks out like a sore thumb. He is constantly counselling against going up in the play offs, wants us to build slowly, he doesn't want us spending any money this window and wants us to blood youngsters for the rest of the season as he sees this year's work (avoiding relegation) as done.

Then whenever he posts, everyone ends up invariably agreeing with him.! A lot of them on there  look like Club plants or paid bots, if not they have major problems.

Terrific article.

It's a godsend to have a bit of quality and realism in the LT as an antidote to Jackson's drivel.

Christ, how slowly does he want us to build?
We went down from the PL in 2012….

Christ that's a name not even I can make up to pull from.  6 in 20 in the SPL.  Not sure he's even scored enough for a highlights video

 

In the one goal I found him scoring he looked quick on a counter

Crikey…

My opinion on Brandon Thomas-Asante is improving more with every player I see linked.

Mercer going to be gutted, he had him signing for JDT a couple of years ago. Another one the charlatans probably refused to sign the cheque for 🙈

He's had more clubs than Nick Faldo/our recent transfer guru - Owen?

[Emerald Isle Rover]

Outside of the old firm don’t take much notice of Scottish football so Iv no clue about this fella at all 

6 in 21 at Scottish level for the team the bottom of the league isn’t bad 

but let’s be clear we shouldn’t be anywhere near this level of signing it’s just what venkys are giving us - if true of course

I’ve never had much time for Elliott from his LT reporting. However, to be fair, this is a really decent podcast in which both contributors don’t hold back and highlight the shit show of the Club’s leadership and the disrespect being shown to Eustace and all Blackburn Rovers fans. Well done Elliott 👏 

Not listened to the whole thing yet, the first 15 mins, on the last two defeats was very good, but if he's saying what he REALLY thinks on here and taking the LT's shilling to write as though everything is normal and nothing is untoward in the newspaper, does that not make it even worse?

Not if he wants to keep his job/income no it makes perfect sense actually

I know that is the reason he's doing it obviously, but I have even less respect for his output if he actually  thinks exactly the opposite.

Sorry for the long post, It’s just all very depressing and sad really. At the start of the window, I was stupid to think we might just maybe have a little go, just 2 or 3 million on 2 or 3 pieces of quality to push us on and maybe just a shot of the play-offs come May.

Links to Bamford, Thomas-Asante, Kent and Schlupp were just ok, rather uninspiring and pretty poor, none would really push us on. But now, after that shambles of a statement yesterday, a couple of these types of players would actually be useful, they’d be much needed bodies that we are desperately in need of. That’s how low my bar has been set, the new links aren’t much better really, no championship experience which the manager was adamant he needed and wanted. Just well and truly depressing.

The statement hasn’t actually helped anything, it’s made it much harder to see where this all goes, I read it yesterday and thought maybe a few coming in then, I read it again today and thought nothings happening now, just a complicated mess.

As soon as Eustace gets any sort of offer elsewhere, he’ll be off and who could blame him, him and the players are the only positives in this whole mess.

This ownership continues to underwhelm and disgust us all, the sooner they realise and sell up, the better. Venky’s, Waggott, Suhail and Rudy, all to blame for this disaster show. Wish they’d all just do one, it’s like a recurring nightmare you can’t wake up from.. 

After all that, we’re still 6th (until tomorrow at least).. I’m clinging onto the fact that there’s just over a week to go, who knows..

All very very sad really.
