Jon Dahl Tomasson - Officially No Longer Our Head Coach
Mike E replied to Tom's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Leicester fan at work reckons Graham Potter already been sounded out. -
It is. But right backs were what was being chatted about.

@chaddyrovers @roversfan99 THIS IS THE ADAM WHARTON THREAD

I don't think it's a myth. IMO, the 'invisible friend' was deliberate on Tugay's part, as a way of telling his teammates where they SHOULD be. There were many occasions where the exact same pass was repeated to success a couple of minutes afterwards (often precisely because the oppo expected a repeat of the failure).

I haven't seen any indication of a further price increase tbf. 'Phase 3' just looks like you can't guarantee the same seat as last season. -
Good riddance to bad shite. Rolf Harris (actually died 10/05, but reported publicly today).
-
Hidden a bunch of posts discussing the right back position and transfer targets without a single reference to Adam Wharton.

And they STILL couldn't knock him over! His ability to ride tackles actually impresses me more than his passing ability.

That video! Never seen such a hard bastard get so emotional. What a thoroughly decent man he is.

But he did find us JDT in 6 days. -

Yes he did. He's dead. He has ceased to be! He's expired and gone to meet his maker! 'He's a stiff! Bereft of life, he rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed him to the perch he'd be pushing up the daisies! His metabolic processes are now history! He's off the twig! He's kicked the bucket, he's shuffled off his mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleeding choir invisible!! THIS IS AN EX-PUNDIT!! -

Ah that adds a bit more context I'd been missing? -

I think you've missed the point of my post entirely. -

Yeah. Scandinavia being 'your part of the world'. -

You need a manager to be effective AND lucky. I think ours is effective but luck abandoned us in the last 10 games. -

Agreed. Rather than genuinely asking advice, I reckon it would've been more a case of 'we're getting this guy from your part of the world, pretty good huh?' IF we had to replace JDT, I'd be trying for someone similar. Maybe Knutsen or Hutter. -
Bradley Dack - Twist or Stick?
Mike E replied to bigbrandjohn's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
To any fan under 20, he probably is. -
You're conflating, and using it to pretend I've no sense of humour. To conclude: Mrs Merton - Funny. Saying BBD's wife is a gold-digger without reason (and without any contextual reference given to a Mrs Merton clip) - definitely not funny. When the context is given afterwards - benefit of the doubt.

It didn't come across as a joke, it legit came across as misogyny. Not all of us would understand that's a 'paraphrased quote' from a character, and if I'm being honest even this explanation comes across as a clumsy excuse for a genuinely held view. Benefit of the doubt, I suppose.

In fairness, every account I can find is that the O'Brien deal was lined up mid-December, but made clear it would be a Deadline Day deal if it went through. Makes it all the more annoying we weren't prepared with 6-weeks notice. -
Sorry, but I think that's really low for this place. We're assuming his wife and mother of his child is a gold-digger on the basis that she's attractive? Didn't realise we had Andrew Tate types. Do better.

My overall plan for STs (I know I've said it several times but hey-ho) if the club listened to me (or indeed some of the Trust's ideas that are similar): Based on the 'Twenty's Plenty' principle from the FSA, I'd say £15 in the Riverside, £25 in JWU central, £20 everywhere else. STs valued at approx £10-15/game so Riverside would be the 'Bleachers section' at £229, JWU central would be £349, everywhere else would be £299. Obviously this is just adult rate, concessions/students/chn will be priced down, but I want to keep this simple. Another option could be to pay the club £5/month (or £50 annually) in order to be able to purchase a seat for any game at the pro-rated ST value. Next one is a bit different. Half STs...why are they only available at Christmas? These should be at a flat rate of £150 for anywhere in the ground (£200 for JWU central). These can either be available for the first half of the season, or the second half of the season.

I meant the Duff one 😅

Pears/ Kaminski.. summer plans?
Mike E replied to NeilInBristol's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Stopped us going 2-0 down in 12mins vs Leicester tbf.
