He'll be on the touchline wearing a gilet in the 2nd half.

Would be funny seeing Big Sam take charge and then just keep telling them to sell every press conference.

Henry has a co-presenting slot on Talksport at the weekends doesn't he? I'd like to think he'd be reciprocal to having a well spoken, calm and collective Rovers fan on the show to discuss this latest dark cloud to hang over Ewood.

Someone posted earlier today (can't remember who) that Travis apparently refused a meeting with JE this morning.

Billy Davies 14 year term.

I'm expecting a Valerian Ismael, David Wagner, cheap and free basically. Who would I like? Kenny Dalglish and for it to be 1994 again.

So you agree it isn't significant investment but also disagree with my usage of Sanderson as an example?

"Significant investment." A Wigan supporting friend of mine laughed when I told him we'd got Sanderson from Brum ON LOAN. A Signing from the league below, on loan...if that doesn't scream non-investment, I don't know what does.

Listened to that today too. I wouldn't piss on Simon Jordan if he was on fire.

In the summer, he wanted to spend some money, but they didn't agree to that. That's what it boils down to. That's the reason he offered his resignation in the summer and it's why he's off now. How do you get 50% of a squad to run through brick walls for you, when the likelihood is they're not playing for you next season? No money spent, no long term thinking, no signs of progression from the hierarchy.

You're right, we are in a strong position now and were throughout December and January, much above the fans expectation as you say. During which time, Eustace has been clear with what he wanted in Jan and clearly feels he didn't get. So they didn't deliver in the Summer and haven't delivered this Winter. It's not the point of being given the assurances, he has been given assurances by the hierarchy before. The point is, they never follow through with their assurances and renege on the regular.

That same poster said Eustace was given assurances last summer that the McGuire money would be available for him to spend. That didn't come to fruition. So why would he think any assurances now will be different?

I heard Gally yesterday morning too on Talksport discussing the game and Eustace. He's another one who needs a rocket up his arse and to stop defending/blindly ignoring what's going on.

He came across as desperate on the last overlap podcast I saw regarding "getting back in". A big no from me too.

I had a look at out of work managers last night on transfermarkt. Some names that popped out were: Valerian Ismael Rob Edwards David Wagner I even saw Billy Davies on the list and wouldn't put it past this lot.
