The LT can reveal that Eustace asked Blackburn Rovers for a new contract and assurances over investment in the squad to continue their push at the top end of the Championship table. However, Rovers refused to extend his deal and provide those guarantees.

 

pathetic from Rovers.

Eustace's contract should have been extend and those assurances should have been done. 

from the article above

" The next incumbent is likely to be out of work and someone who can slot into their current model. " 

 

[philipl]

Abysmal failure 

The club is utterly rotten 

[rog of the rovers]

We can come back to that statement when they appoint a "cheap" replacement.

If you're angry and serious, go out an get a top candidate.

We know how this ends though, more futile correspondence from Statement FC

They’ve spent more time on writing that statement than they have on trying to convince JE to stay.

Absolute arseholes.

Absolutely disgraceful statement. Trying to pin it on Eustace and claiming "significant investment" in January.

Fuck off, just fuck off the lot of you.

They obviously really do think we accept all this crap. Shitbags the lot of them.

If you didn't laugh you'd cry. The thing is they probably believe that.

[CrouchingNunhiddenCucumber]

Its time to go after that fat cunt CEO and that Pasha fucker, get into them in the ground and make them suffer like we've been suffering for the last 15 years

[Devon Rover]

That statement has made me more furious at Venkys and Waggot than I've ever been. I really don't think I want to put myself through more of this abuse. I need to get out of it.

[neophox]

Fuck off and embarrassing shambles of club!

Laughable statement yet some supporters swallow that hook like and sinker

[JHRover]

Here we have Waggott's attempt to direct the blame away from the scum in India and the boardroom and blame Eustace - we can see it now - he's the problem for leaving mid-season, we've made 'significant investments', we're disappointed - shameless, classless, liars, scum.

Unfortunately some of the numpties - fortunately not many on here but plenty on Facebook and Twitter - are ready to lap this up and buy Waggott's lies and nonsense. 

Despicable.

[...]

 John if you are reading we are truly sorry as a fan base that you had to endure 12 months of lies and deception.

you've been great and we all wish you well please come back when they leave and we can all focus on winning the league. I'm sure you could of done it given proper ownership and financial aid but unfortunately we chose to have people buy the club who couldn't even tell you what the offside rule is.

Best of luck Eustace lad.

Classless statement, full of conjecture and smear.

Spot on. Our club is rotten.

[Ricceh]

They're so passive aggressive what the fuck. Suhail must think people shouldn't be able to leave.

[DanielMB]

I still don’t get why he would do this so late in the season with the team in such a promising position. 

[neophox]

What do they mean reluctantly granted??? Could they'd top him?

The man must be absolutely sure he can’t get us in to the playoffs. His reputation would be much better if he leaves in the summer after securing us top 6

Could just have decided that he doesn't like the shambles. Not totally sure Derby look that much better mind?

Feels like part of it could be Derby might just be offering him a lot more money and Rovers can't match it.

[The Gull]

Significant! I suppose it is subjective as something is significantly more than nothing, but we’ve spent significantly less than we have raised, so spin that you shower of ####’s!

[neophox]

Waggot out waggot out!!!

Togetherness he reiterated throughout his tenure, players working so hard he said throughout. Those same players, let down by their manager jumping ship whilst in the playoff places for slightly more money and an hour longer in bed. A day after telling another player (Sigurdsson) that he wasn't in his squad instead of letting someone else come in and make the decision. Doesn't reflect great on him either. Thanks for the memories (?) John, but you're now in the same bracket as Lambert.

Or...the club has let down the manager that fought the players corner when he tried to get them new deals. When those weren't forthcoming & then they signed a 26th player he said enough is enough...

[Tim Southampton Rover]

Are the board and owners Burnley fans in disguise? If so, they win. Now give our club back.
