The weirdos on 606 are saying this

The Lancashire Evening Telegraph understands that Mark Hughes is ready to be appointed as the next manager of Blackburn Rovers Football Club.

Rovers officials are believed to have held talks with Mark Hughes yesterday. He will continue to manage Wales on the short term and assess the situation on their qualifying chances after their next couple of games. He is expected to take charge following the Portsmouth match so his first game is expected to be against Bournemouth which may draw some extra fans for that match.

1864, he does it to himself. Everyone else can stick to the one thread, and in general to the posting guidelines. Why cant Hughesy, heaven knows he's been here long enough.

Don't be so harsh on the little fellow, let's have a Hughesy forum!

Hughesy! Hughesy! Hughesy! Hughesy! Hughesy! Hughesy! Hughesy! Hughesy! Hughesy! Hughesy! Hughesy! Hughesy! Hughesy! Hughesy! Hughesy! Hughesy! Hughesy! Hughesy! Hughesy! Hughesy! Hughesy!

I appoint myself moderator - post away Mr Hughesy!

where does JW say that the man will be appointed after saturdays match

About page 70 he was quoted in the Mirror:-

Williams said: 'There will be more meetings during the week, but I'd be surprised if we appointed somebody before the Portsmouth game.

'We are not rushing into a decision, but I would expect us to have a man in place before the Charlton game in two weeks' time.'

That seems to rule out God and Felicity Kendall which were my favourites. sad.gif

I still want dowie and not hughes! Come on JW, see sense and appoint Dowie, and if we have to get hughes i wont be happy with this joint club/country rubbish, that wont work.

as for megson...god no

i remember going to a blackpool match about 7 years ago against Hednesford town in the fa cup and they lost, it was that bad 4 fans ran to the dugout and started assaulting megson and ripping his jacket.

If Andy Nield genuinely has an exclusive in tonight's LET saying Hughes has got the job, then I'd like to know about it (not being near a Blackburn newsagent).

Your 1 on your own then if you go off some of the comments

It's the rule of the jungle I'm afraid, Hughesy.

One person starts a new thread claiming MGP has signed when it was patently obvious that it was still rumour and speculation. That is given the stay of execution.

Another person does something very similar with Hughes becoming manager and the thread is wiped.

Im happy nomatter its Hughes or Dowie. Both are some good managers getting respect from players and fans.

I would expect the rovers playes to give everything from day one if Hughes is the man. I think Dowie needs a month or two earning the same respect from the players as they dont know to much about him.

JW says the manager will be appointed after the Pompey match -

Report from the Rags 19/09/04

" all reports that Redknapp would not be at the game where blown out the window when he was spotted in the seat sponsored by Betfair in the Jack Walker stand with his son Jamie sporting the Blue n White now of the famous Lancastrian club .

This bombshell of appointment by Rovers had taken all by surprise (except Betfair who claimed ignorance of anything) and was considered downright disrespectful to the 2000 or so pompey fans that had made the long journey to meet Mr Blackburn Rovers himself Bobf. They had been assured that Mr R would not be taking over the reigns of his new club until the following Monday due to him being on 'toilet cleaning leave.'

You can just see it tongue.giftongue.giftongue.gif

well at least they have identified the source as to the interest for the Rovers job ! All other reports suggest someone close to Hughes but now we have it in black and white !

i wonder if it has been made clear to the Rovers Board just how much he wants the job ?
