He seemed pretty immersed in it last night. Hard to call. If they fail, can see him wanting to finish the job next season. If they go up I really can't see him leaving them.

That is probably exactly what is needed.

Farke out and one of your credible sources. Ainsworth out and another of your credible sources. So how is your 6 candidate shortlist looking Chris ? Told you it was nonsense and way too early. Meanwhile privately Waggott has confirmed that nobody has been spoken to yet except Tony Mowbray.

Doubt it. Although the twist to the twist would be Nyambe signs.... then so does Mowbray.

Oh sorry, you only named Nixon and a Rovers fan (like me & you). As you were.

For clarity, do you know what Alan Nixon's job is / what he gets paid for ?

They are like the Yoda of fucking up potential. If I recall Waggott said it was too costly a gamble to explore the Chilean market. Although the difference there is the commodity is BBD rather than Rovers and will follow him to his new club in a few weeks.

Don't think so. You are confusing pure speculation from people trying to sell bets and papers, etc. I guarantee nobody on here has a clue.

There is more to it from the club's pov. See Manures worldwide fanbase as an example. If there are fans in other countries who may never come to Blackburn, they can still provide valuable income. Even if Rovers become their second team. Yes I know the concept of having a second team should be illegal 🤣. Buying shirts, subscribing to Rovers TV, spreading the word, etc. I think it was yourself not long ago talking about some new virtual thing I am too old to understand. Is it buying teams or skins on computer games or something? Yes the team ultimately needs to perform on the pitch to maintain interest. The Diaz situation is another example of worldwide fandom. Maybe generating income from these things are the future for the club and us old gits sitting in the cold moaning about pies & pints are the past for them. Pay the price to come down or don't.

100% If you wait by the river long enough, the bodies of your enemies will float by. And here we wait.

It has been said that gambling is a mugs game and that there is only ever one winner...the bookies. It would never be more true if Tony gets on the plane to India coming back with a nice new contract. I don't really see much about this season that the owners won't have been happy with, given pre season expectations.

Do we ? How do we know this ?

I am in this group. Stopped my ST after Lambert. Won't go back until they leave. Was hard at first. Angry on matchdays. Now its made easier by this magic stick from South America which means I don't have to pay to suffer.

Except Rovers Chat don't have a clue who the candidates are.

How dare you question the integrity of The Gospel of Tony.

You have to laugh at the club news blackout. It's like Russian State news. Alternative reality. It is almost unimaginable that there will be no club statement put out today.

Mark Venus in charge of the property assets and the first team.... nothing could go wrong there then. What is this Waggott bloke in charge of ? Or has he already followed Senior into the black hole of NDAs never to be seen again ?

I'm not clear he has fucked off.... he is still in the dugout at Brum isn't he ? This is potentially all a sick negotiating game of which we are all now participants / victims.

If its an internal appointment then its got to be Ben Benson. Brilliant with the tactic sheets in the ring binder. More passion than Mowbray, even got sent off the other week.

If its a foreign coach then my Sami Hyppia bet is going to win nicely. If its an upcoming manager then Rob Edwards will be the only name on the list. But we should also know the whos who of Indian managers as the time may be right. Otherwise is Ronaldinho a failed manager?

Surely Waggott has to make a statement within the next 24hrs ?!

Good Riddance. Should have been fired the minute we got relegated. Now Venkys will you kindly fuck off.

Only 90 minutes longer with this fella in charge. After the game it showed him shaking hands then straight down the tunnel. He didn't look angry or sad or anything. Almost like the fans....phew only 1 to go. He was never interested in Rovers.

I thought they were coming back for a game this season....seems not. Not even Jagdish could be arsed. What a set of cunts the lot of 'em
