That's the trouble with Blackburn at the moment. Too many Indians and no chief

Maradona would be ace.  He'd be entertaining and I could ask him to sign my retro Argentina shirt.

Maradona would be like an international Ian Holloway, his press conferences sure would be interesting!

Where do you get a chance to wear your Argentina shirt, do you get much stick when you wear it?

Silly question to ask in this day and age.
Managers hardly have tome to make an opening statement before they are clearing their desk and subjected to a NDA before disappearing down the road. Pithy statements were froma time when managers bar Brian Clough I suppose felt secure in a reasonably extended period of employment.
I wonder if  WmHill offer odds on Cloughie term of office at Leeds being beaten..what was it, 44 days?
Gerard must have come close.
I can see someone getting their walking papers for parking in the wrong space on the first day before long..

What have Big Sam and Ashley Peacock got in common?


Neither of them will be at the Rovers Christmas party this year! Boom Boom! ;D

Apparently the new owners want Blackburn to be a top 5 club. Clearly the Indian poultry business is a haven of fantasists, as well as chicken-stranglers

Maybe then the catholic church is right about the deleterious effects of choking your chicken.

Villa's record against Newcastle and Blackburn this season is P2 W0 D0 L2 F0 A8 Pts0. Both teams are above Villa in the league, yet both have sacked their managers.  Houllier needs a superb January on the pitch, in the transfer market and on the training ground...

Or maybe Villa have owners who know how to run a football club.

Villa's record against Chelsea and Man Utd this season is P2 W0 D2 L0 F2 A2 Pts2, yet those two are top of the table.

I'm always amazed at how some clubs think they should always be doing better than they are.

A strange statement.  Are you saying some clubs should not aim to improve themselves?

I get the sack and then I find out Taylor Swift has managed to pull Jake Gyllenhaal. The world is a fucked up place.

I might have some more gin. Or make a start on those fancy new shoes I've decided to design. I'm so blue.

Just woken up crying again. The wolves are at the door. The missus was fast asleep, groping her own tits. This is the stuff of nightmares.
