That *was* the January Window
Ossydave replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
So Fleck who's getting on a bit to start with, he's played 89 minutes of football total all season. This is the same guy who collapsed on the pitch the other season too if people remember. Now he's expected to play the way JDT wants to? I bet the manager is delighted. -

We failed with Phillips so they palmed us of with some lesser known nobody to soften the blow. Boring. Predictable. Depressing. -

Imagine a potential deal to a club in disarray falling through, to your only other option being going to another with crackpot owners, the poor bastard. Get home to the sunshine lad. -

Not really the news I wanted to wake up to, although it's not even slightly surprising. A lot of our fans were reluctantly 'accepting' the Wharton sale if it meant we spent even a bit of it. Of course we all had our doubts it would be. IF that's true about us pulling the plug on McGuire whilst he was mid flight then its utterly disgusting on the back of the O'brien saga too, you'd be off your heads dealing with us after it, talk about career wreckers. There's a massive game on Saturday which now looks like it'll be overshadowed by matters off the pitch. Not exactly ideal preparation is it, that's if JDT can even be bothered. I'd understand if his resignation of on Waggotts desk tomorrow. -

He was on the same shortlist as Hill, so yes it probably did come down to money....although Hill didn't turn out too bad, shame his stay was cut short. -

We tried for him last window, not sure why interest died off though. -

It wasn't through lack of effort that Grabbi flopped though. Ennis on the other hand turned up out of shape, and has never really got up to speed. Annoying as there probably is some ability there if he wasn't such a lazy shite. It's mad when you compare the levels of fitness on show from Szmodics every week compared to him. -

No. He seems fairly savvy sorting contracts out, but we're yet to see much in the way of getting players over the line, especially when other clubs are interested. Wahlstedt being the obvious exception on that front. I wonder if Adam is at Selhurst tonight watching on. That's not going to get finalised till tomorrow earliest now I presume, not much time left and past experience doesn't bode well.... -

I agree, would be a good signing. Celtic allegedly interested in him too though, guessing he may end up there. -

I've just worked 7 days in a row so it's my weekend now, on that basis I'm going tomorrow 🍻 -

Are you new to this circus? It's exactly the sort of thing we'd do under this regime. Wharton will be sold at 10:30pm on deadline day too and we'll shrug our shoulders saying it was too late to spend that money. Then it'll disappear by summer. -

Has anyone else heard the ticket office closes at 5pm Monday on police advice? Not seen it mentioned..... -

True but if you're given the option of someone who might be rubbish, or nobody at all, you kind of have to take a punt. -

I remember the new Hull owner being introduced to their fans before we played them the other season. They've been on an upwards trajectory ever since. Imagine, competent fucking owners. -

Yeah quite surprising when most of our fan base got wound up by Mowbrays love for playing Benno 🤣 -

Involved on the football side as backroom staff, not people in the public eye, don't be ridiculous I'm not going to start posting names of people on here 🤣 -

I don't think he speaks very highly of the club, so I doubt it -

Half of our backroom staff are actively looking for new jobs, it's no secret. That won't include Benson or Lowe though, they'll be getting paid top whack for doing relatively little. Which is probably partly why the rest are looking to leave. -

Qpr won 2-0 today, imagine that. 2 goals and a clean sheet. I'm sorry but if you think we're staying up you're very ambitious, I've not seen free fall like this in many, many years -

Why do people keep saying not this year? The defence is the worst in the league, we can't buy a win! What are people actually clinging to that makes them think we'll stay up? Grayed there is poor teams below us but they've beat us or took point off us! -

JDT is doing Bradley Johnson false 9 moves at the minute I'm afraid, he's basically given up. Get rid or we will go down, I'm absolutely certain of it.
