Let’s get together as fans and organise a Chile day, which would put Waggott to shame, if it worked. I am happy to start it on Twitter, as I speak decent Spanish. If I get enough backing on here, by way of a game to home in on and a promise of a few Retweets, I will give it a go. Even if we only get a plane load, it will still embarrass the under achieving, marketing team at Ewood.

He had Chile con carne for tea last night. Does that qualify him?

It’s amazing what a bit of confidence can do, in any walk of life.

I watched the game too. It’s a bit harsh saying he did very little else. He won the corner for the first goal, for starters.

Have you got a brother called Harry?

Lots of posts on here today. I’m sure each and everyone of us wishes him all the best for tonight, irrespective of what the future has in store for him.

I think he will go for big money. Thankfully we have the one year extension, otherwise I would be worrying, but think it will be £20 million plus, because of this and see January, as the likely point, when we cash in.

The signing was typical really of what we have seen, under these owners. No matter who the manager is and no matter who appears to be the decision maker at Ewood, it always seem to a a front, for crazy things being done. Most have failed, maybe Ben was turn into a successful piece of business, but these owners are certainly gambling, with the very future of our club.

For those not familiar with the Spanish Language, the word for beard is barba, so pretty easy to remember. The Gran Barba ( Great Beard) is a great nickname for him.

That’s the first time I’ve seen that suggestion on here. We aren’t the only club, who have players, whose contracts are being wound down. Getting those types of players in, compensates us for the ones leaving. It is a balancing act.

Is the crowd funding already underway?

Does anyone wish we could wind the clock back about 30 years? How has the beautiful game, ended up so ugly?

I wasn’t there, so assume he simply chose not to applaud the fans. You make a pretty valid point though.

It’s one hell of a way of laundering money is English football, especially the premier league. With each passing week, as I see players negotiating contracts at £26.5 million per year (Ronaldo) and others on £20 million per year, it just totally sickens me. All this will do with Newcastle is attract more greedy mercenary players to the club, who do not care a jot for the club, the fans, the traditions of the club, or even the sport itself. It is totally broken and somehow needs stopping.

Good game after good game then?

Is there no FFP whatsoever on the prem? It seems to go against everything the authorities are trying to stop. Rich owners turning up and pumping millions in.

This is why what Roverite has been told, despite his best efforts, is almost certainly going to be nonsense.

One thing that perhaps needed pointing out when Mowbray defended himself by saying the current team is not like the team in 1995 is perhaps that neither is he at the standard he was when he managed Boro and WBA.

Let me answer that. A big fat zero.

Exactly the same as Glen Mullan then? Okay you don’t write blogs, but spend plenty of time on here, telling us all about it, but actually telling us nothing, in reality.

Be careful. Your information could turn into one of them blogs that you don’t believe in. The writer of one blog, also had information from inside the club, including then current players and employees and yet you suggested yesterday, it was pretty much made up.

Some of the threats made to members of this board, were reported to the police. One person was also followed around the stadium, by individuals who were shall we say, of dubious character. Not to mention, money being offered to someone, as an incentive to stop protesting about what was going on and phone calls made (that were recorded) almost pleading to stop being exposed.

Hope you have some evidence of this, otherwise someone might not believe it was true. There could be some subliminal message going round on here right now.

Absolutely. Add a couple of other agencies, such as crescendo and HSH and between them they have done pretty well.

I think we are wasting our time. He has an agenda, so let him get on with it.
