I know this is speculative - but I posted earlier in this thread that I was told last Aug(by a solid source) that both TM and SW were leaving at the end of the season If that is true (and for TM it clearly was) is it just possible that SW is just going through the motions with no real intent of finding anybody? Come 30 June he walks away and we are really up shit creek?

And add in Pardews resignation because of racism (No judge would find against him in a contract case) so he is a "free" agent! Oh Shit! Think I might have a little punt too

I was given the same info....and suspect that is where the story in Lancs Live emanated from - either directly or indirectly When told - my reaction was to question the sources state of inebriation But on reflection it makes sense - Maybe Ancellotti had been asked by a previous employee to put in a good word? If I had that kind of connection I would certainly use it

Don't know if it all ready been posted But I was informed Lenihan was going to sign the day we played Bournemouth but it didn't happen for some reason As for signing contracts - and to some degree deciding a new manager I would guess most people employed in football are with their families on "annual Leave"

Do you know the actual figure? Because that sounds like sales BS to me (not from you, but whoever is claiming sales are on course for pre-pandemic levels) If sales are at a scary low level (and I suspect they are) - they are hardly likely to own that and declare "its a fookin disaster" are they?

I'm convinced that was so the surveyors could move into Brockhall for the ill fated sell off plan? By all accounts the groundsman warned against it - but they "ploughed" on and destroyed the surface regardless

Well the info I got last Aug was that they are both going - so on that basis your 147 is a good call - maybe I should have a rethink on my page forecast I just get the feeling Waggott is scrambling to keep his job?

Well its page 120 The forecast was this is how many pages before a new manager was announced! I would like to forecast 147 as posts have slowed a little and just about every available or even unavailable manager has had a mention Any other forecasts - page number not successful candidate (they will have got a mention somewhere)

I don't know of course But TM leaving sounds about right - he will be on his annual holiday leave until his contract runs down? Standard stuff?

Bet it wasn't the first 45mins

There seems to be genuine surprise on here about what is unfolding at present. I was told at the end of Aug last year that both Mowbray and Waggott were leaving this summer and this info was known by staff at Ewood. This info looks like its coming to fruition? My immediate reaction at the time was this "Thanks for Update - only downside I suppose is that they are hardly going to be motivated for this season? its just a shit show" I honestly feel this is all part of a plan to leave us as deep in the shite as possible (like some disgruntled ex-employees would in a similar position?) Maybe the SW/TM chat went along the lines of - who would piss the fan base off the most? Oh they hate ********** I'll give him the job as a parting gift!!

I don't post often on here but on the Joe Rothwell's fathers conversation Has anyone considered that he will only be repeating what his son has "told him" I told my dad watered down, biased versions of practically all my life events, usually to stop him worrying and often slanting tales to paint me in a better light - maybe this is what JR has done? As for the topic itself - Mowbray At the start of this season probably a 5.5 over his whole tenure (although I wanted him gone during last seasons collapse, and was convinced that if there had been fans in the ground - he would have been fired!) Now he is 2/10 - and any good will he had earned over his time has evaporated

It was a cold night - I'm still amazed they managed to keep the game on. Good Night though!

yea but where? unless they only allow it on the day? I cant find a link

Anybody know if buy on the day is available? I'm not a s/t holder but want to watch on ifollow? (A walk on! - there doesn't seem to be any facility for that)
