Nailed it

Surely we all knew nothing would happen? Anyone that genuinely believed we'd sign anyone give your head a wobble. A loan perhaps but even that was a stretch after "I can't negotiate" gate. Tony Mowbray and every other clown in a position of power at Rovers is the level we operate at. Blackburn Rovers 2020.

It has been heading this way since 12.01am on Jan 1st.

Announcing you are a terrible negotiator is not doing 'alright'.

“I’m not a great negotiator, I like to be honest and tell people what I think things are worth. If I don’t want to do it, I’m not coming back with another price. “But that’s probably naïve, the world is all about ‘you’ve offered that but we know that you’ve got another two or three offers coming’. This completely explains all past windows under Mowbray and why he will never, ever get us promoted. What a farce!

This is wonderful

Classic Mowbray "he needs to learn the way we play so I'm not promising him a minimum amount of games" by the sounds of it.

Complete clown but absolutely the level we operate now and all because of the rats that own us.

This whole thing is their mess, personally I'll blame them for everything until they crawl back to where they came from.

Hope/desperation/Stockholm syndrome.

So we're on the exact same points as this time last year, when we didn't strengthen in positions we desperately needed to, and then went on a horrendous run. Has TM learnt his lessons or is he scrabbling around the loan market at the last minute? I can see which way this is going and it's very frustrating.

“I know the results, everyone wants to win, but you draw a few and then you get stats thrown at you and you become a bad manager When you win a few, and then don’t win for a few, it’s as though you must have done something different, what turned from being a good manager to being a bad manager?" This from TM after the Wednesday game was such a massive red flag for me. We've just had our biggest away victory in 19 years and our manager has pretty much admitted he doesn't know how it happened as he hasn't done anything different.

Name a player since Shearer that its affected?

But whoever is going to be able to tell us we're buying no one now?

Have we bought anyone yet?

Why are any of us anywhere? To laugh at people.

Give yourselves a break, we ain't signing anyone.

Football is alive

I do hope you're right as that would mean they give enough of a fuck to realise our current plight. Unfortunately history tells us that that is highly unlikely and they just want to keep the lights on and have a manager that will fly to India three times a year.

You can't ever absolve Venkys from blame. The only reason we have an outdated manager like Mowbray is because of Venkys.

Because most people have come round to the fact that Mowbray is incapable of spending any budget wisely. Hopefully you'll get there soon.

This is singularly, the least exciting transfer window in my lifetime.

This. Our only hope!

We're going to get bummed here. Mowbray to blame Nyambe's hamstring

You're giving him credit for thinking about what he says in the media. The only thing keeping me slightly interested in Rovers is the hope that he doesn't think through what he says to the media, otherwise we really are fucked.
