Well done Venkys, yet ANOTHER sublime appointment in your horrific mismanagement of BRFC. Can't wait to see who you pull out of the hat for next seasons L1 campaign.

What an absolute shower of shit that indian mob are.

OC has just tried to vindicate himself with the Rovers performance against Manu !

Shame there wasn't a Rovers Return at ManU ! :smile:

The appointment of Coyle in the first place is up there with Birmingham's dismissal of Rowett and appointment of Zola for stupid decisions. (Not that I think too many managers would do well with that club since Venkys took over). I genuinely don't understand this - if all the fans of both the club concerned and others can see it's not going to work before it even happens, why do they do these things?

Don't listen to the support - we're not 'football people' so can't possibly know anything.

Timing seems a bit weird. Blackburn have been crap all season: I'd have expected him to have gone long ago. I could be wrong but it actually feels like they've improved (slightly) recently, with Gallagher and Graham both scoring goals.

You'd imagine dropping into League One would be financially crippling for them, as they must have a few players (such as Graham, Elliott Bennett, Craig Conway, and that full back/ winger (whose name temporarily escapes me but was repeatedly linked with us) on fairly high wages.

Blackburn took 6 points off Newcastle under Coyle - I'd buy him a pint of Harveys.

Ben Marshall? Recently sold to Wolves

Who next?

Adkins, Pearson, Freedman?

Maybe PARDS is disco dancing his way up the M6 as we speak?

Though it is a bit northern for him. I couldn't help noticing his grinning visage appearing in the Sutton United VIP seats during the BBC coverage of their recent exploits. I wonder where he'll end up next?

Brighton factually.....
Have to be the biggest mess up by foreign owners, took a stable PL club well run into a mess bound for L1

Poor Ol' Big Jack will be spinning in his grave.

I don't particularly care for Blackburn or their fans, but it's never nice to see a club being run down, and stripped bare.

Quoted as 33/1 on SkyBet.

If they go down they could be in genuine trouble of going out of business. Big wages, what I imagine is an expensive ground to maintain and run coupled with fan protests, falling attendances and owners that couldn't be further from the fans view of the club. I don't think OC has done that badly with the resources given to him however he was very naive to take the job considering his management history with their main rivals. Was on to a loss with some fans even if he won them the league.
