Back to Josh's (poor attempt at) storytelling.... a good way to explain it would be Manure incentivising Phil Jones to go back to Rovers on far less money....

Round and round and down and down. Have they left yet ?

Are we still talking about the football ?

Just catching up. Defenders not coming as yet.

Jon Dahl Tomasson, all about the team. Backed by Venkys, they once met the Queen. Jon Dahl Tomasson, has a project plan. Blue & White, whether a boy or a man. Jon Dahl Tomasson, the Blackburn legion. We Are Rovers, the Best in our region. Jon Dahl Tomasson replaced Alan Shearer. We're going up and it couldn't be clearer.

Russell Martin will be the first Championship manager to get sacked if he stubbornly keeps playing the same crap, talking the same crap and not getting enough points. Only Mowbray was exempt from that fate.

If we go to market we need Transfer fee + Sign on fee + Wages (within structure). He is already ours so give him a good sign on fee and nice release clause say £18 million. That should protect everyones interests.

Do we have to break the wage structure though ? Don't we just offer a lucrative sign on fee ? We get that back when we either go up or sell him on under contract.

Or new contract. We can't make teams come in for him.

Fairly certain Ben will be staying. Just can't see any PL side gambling their PL survival on an untested at that level player. Especially in that he plays in a sort of niche role. Look how Arma turned out. Can't get a game (or a goal) and hauled off at HT yesterday. Nobody was even taking a gamble on Mitrovic last season. Nothing to suggest anybody is seriously looking at Ben imo.

Sunday morning, Top of the league 🎶 Feels so good, makes me wanna sing Jon Dahl Tomasson, All about the Team Blackburn Rovers, Best you've ever seen Lewis Travis, Captain Lean & Mean Ben B Diaz, Our Goal Machine Jon Dahl Tomasson, All about the Team Blackburn Rovers, Best you've ever seen Ryan Hedges, Assists from the Wing Super Bucko, Our Midfield King Jon Dahl Tomasson, All about the Team Blackburn Rovers, Best you've ever seen Sammie Szmodics and Bradley Dack Fuck off Burnley, Rovers are Back Blue Army Blue Army Blue Army

Yes in the bbc lancs interview chaddy posted on the previous page

JDT - If you are good enough, you play. Age not important. At last....common sense returns.

First Rovers tactical display since Sam left. Loved it.

BBD laughing and smiling all game. Enjoying his football that lad. Good strength as well. Total opposite to his first season here. He ain't going anywhere.

He would hate us lot.

Ayala thinks that game was easier than training.

Midfielders scoring goals. Always the difference if you want to be top.

JDT as ONJ

2 up We dont need an unfit Dack on the pitch.

Just let the boring gits have the ball in their own half. You can't score there. So far we look comfortable and organised. Ayala on his deck chair.

Just fuckin get in Szmodics

First time on the Beeb for 11 years and I would rather see a piece on us than any other Championship club. On our way back (hopefully).

Gally must have scored one in training this week. Lets see if he can score today.

100% spot on. Ball moves faster than Rothwell. Simple game. "Let the ball do the work". Buckley was great early last season threading visionary passes. As soon as dickbrain moved him up front he wss anonymous. Rothwell was anonymous apart from 3 goals.
