19th May when a meeting with start on who are next manager will be.v

19th May is also the play-off final day, it's between Hughton, Holloway or Big Sam then. I'd happily have the first two.

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Some strong but unconfirmed twitter rumours that state we've pretty much signed M'Vila.

PLEASE BE TRUE

Today I join the team Everz club and join the relegated teams list xD

 

[georgie]

Can I join? Not relegated, but non promotion must mean something?

I don't get why?

He's an average midfielder, nothing special.

Szczesny bit at the end cracks me up it fits him so well.

We need some solidity in midfield that's not just Song.

 

[Calaen]

Fucking lol, someone has put a chicken with a blackburn flag on the pitch HAHAAHAAH

 

[Raven]

Put £1 on Wigan to win 3.0!

 

[eksdee]

 

[Shagrat]

haha bet they had fun smuggling that into the ground

 

[Embattle]

Goodbye Blackburn.

 

[Ch3tan]

Ruddy weekend! Need to catch up with this thread...

Anyway, go go Wigan!

 

[Sydrik]

Paul Robinson is a fucking class act. Pitch invasion and the lad stays on the pitch to applaud the home support and even shakes hands with some of the invaders.

 

[Ch3tan]

He is brave, I saw 2 of the invaders throw items towards the tunnel.

 

[Raven]

Owners fault. cunts

Obviously the manager too but the owners should have got rid of him.

 

[Shagrat]

Writings been on the wall for Blackburn for a while. Chuffed for Wigan though, like the way they play and like the manager. Well apart from beating us 4-0, tossers.

A Stoke round-up from a fan:

A summary of Stoke's season, which says it all......

- The least number (of goals? this was missing) in the whole of the Football League
- We scored 46 goals in the league last year, we are currently on 34 with 1 game left.
- We have scored 12 goals from open play all season
- The least number of successful passes in the PL
- The lowest possession in the PL
- The lowest shot accuracy in the PL
- We have managed only 84 shots on target all season (2.47 a game)
- Jon Walters has scored 2 goals in 22 games ( 1 of them was a penalty)
- We have failed to score in 13 games (1 in 2.61 games)
- We spent £22 million in the summer
- We finished with 46 points last season
- We have scored 3 goals from open play since 1st January (one of them was Crouch's wonder goal against Man City)
- The midfield has scored six goals between them
- Robin Van Persie has scored more goals than the whole of the Stoke squad
- We would be in the bottom 3 if the season started on 1st January

Alot of the generation before me have a huge amount of sympathy for Blackburn, and rightly so. The Venky's have air of the infamous 'Bhatti Brothers' around them, they took us from the top 6 finish and a League Cup win to the 4th division and the verge of liquidation in six years. It reaks the same, they didn't invest in us and then went on to asset strip the club to the point where we had one stand. It's where I fear Blackburn will be going with these idiots at the helm.

 

[- English -]

Saw this coming the minute they sacked Allardyce, so I distanced myself from the club (being in another country helped ;p). Call me a traitor / turn coat, whatever but this club is not Blackburn atm...

Sadly I don't see them returning back soon.. too many unknowns, too many who don't give 100% everyweek. Nothing will change if they sack Kean, things have to start at the top and its been made clear Venkys have to go, or Blackburn will drop further down the tables.

 

[Raven]

Isn't there another Blackburn team about now? Like there is with Wimbledon?

 

[Everz]

Isn't there another Blackburn team about now? Like there is with Wimbledon?

Will be.

Those who are interested in why Kean won't be sacked then look into Jerome Anderson. They will have to reform.

funny post i saw on fb

"Funny that Rovers fans were throwing there season tickets when it was the last game of the season. Bad as Fuck!"

 

[Keitanz]

I understand why Drogba went on Graham Norton :S

 

[Hawkwind]

Not sure about this just yet.

The Mod Squad!

 

[Wazzerphuk]

So new French president is an Arsenal fan and reportedly friends with Le Kos.

 

[Wazzerphuk]

@WhoScored:

Stoke: Have had just 87 shots on target this season - 24 fewer than any other team in Europe's top 5 leagues

 

[soze]

How many of the shots they miss go right over the cross bar? They might just be trying for a drop goal.

 

[cHodAX]

Quit bitching and accept the fact that they are gonna kick the fuck out of you again at least twice more next season!
