3rd place currently. what a fuck up
Considering they have the biggest budget in League 1, and bigger than many championship clubs it is really.
Anything other than a promotion (which should be easy enough with that kind of money), would be an absolute disaster.
that i agree withIt will be interesting if the do go downhill the second half of the season, then they really would be some merit in that suggestion.
its december...you wanna say hes a fuck up wait till he actually has
also to call promotion easy enough makes me think you are new to football. tbh thinking about it you havnt posted for more than a year or so have you?
i should apologise,didnt know you only just discovered football
im sorry
that i agree with
My exact point is that, he usually crashes after Christmas. With the money behind his squad this year there is literally no excuse.
I play and run my own football team, so you'd be miles wide of the mark if you think I'm new to it. Your comments about me not posting in a year prove that you're just being silly anyway.
Exactly. His two big calls were to bring Mowbray in and get us back to Cov. Both successes by the time he left but things went south when he left. Good lyck Steve.
He makes it very difficult for me to put aside my philosophy that you shouldn't make things personal, it's fair to say.In shit owners top trumps I think the Oystons win because one of them is a convicted rapist. As bad as sisu are that's pretty fucking despicable.
Hmmm, bumpity bump bump.
Fair-play to Waggott and dare I say it, Mowbray too, but as Earsldon said, they were backed by their owners this season it seems.
I think it proves, as Waggott said on SSNews today, that "Mowbray was backed in January to bring in some quality (also backed last summer too) and his budget was increased" unlike when he was at City, that his budget was spent and no/tiny increase in Jan, therefore he was scraping the barrel with "experienced" signings such as Henderson, Hunt and Ramage who were all dreadful!It doesn't really prove anything really I think. We know he fucked up here twice over, but getting Blackburn promoted from League 1 with that budget isn't really a measurable achievement in comparison. The money covers any flaws.
My gran with that budget and squad could have probably got promotion.
What about the other five he brought in for us?I think it proves, as Waggott said on SSNews today, that "Mowbray was backed in January to bring in some quality (also backed last summer too) and his budget was increased" unlike when he was at City, that his budget was spent and no/tiny increase in Jan, therefore he was scraping the barrel with "experienced" signings such as Henderson, Hunt and that ginger (?) centreback (whom I can't remember his name) who were all dreadful!
In January?What about the other five he brought in for us?

I doubt he was backed at all. I really can’t be bothered to trawl the ins and outs in January but Blackburn were relegated with a wage bill that was the equivalent of 24 Accrington Stanley’s. Did he manage to get rid of players and then bring some in? The club is all but bust.
They apparently offloaded 16 senior players before the season started I read in one article today. Plus who is it that keeps insisting budgets are irrelevant?
He was backed, if you actually look at Blackburn's January transfer activity 2017–18 Blackburn Rovers F.C. season - WikipediaI doubt he was backed at all.
