Well its like being on a pleasure park boat and some-one shouting come in number 5 your times up!I I really dont know how this will all end but weve gone from bad to worse.Managers coming and going,the same old Pirate crew on board ,Shebby /Shaw/Hendry /Agnew /Anderson etc.The players what we have are not up to it,tactics and simple things (free kicks and corners)Substitutions are all wrong.We got beat yesterday because the other team wanted to win and kept going forward.Its not only the players and management that are to blame the whole of Ewood is not a good atmosphere and its reflecting on everybody and everything.Yes its gone from bad to worse.MA should be given time and see how this season pans out,next season is the time to rebuild(almost an entire team) and go on from there,its positive thinking and action that is now needed not hate and vitriol.

I agree- I think the fans now need to get behind the team and try and generate a positive atmosphere.
It is difficult with what has gone on for two years but clearly half the players could not care less and it is only the fans who are suffering.
We all know we have the least football savvy owners in football history and they know every true fan of the club wishes they would crawl back under their rock. However we are stuck with them for now.
Onwards and hopefully upwards.

Ey Up, Agree with the above sadly. This next few years is not going to be good for my liver!
I have no idea what type of manager MA is, but we need a no-nonsense type who annoys and goads players into performing or leaving like Souness did.
This is not the time to be everyone's friend, getting in touch with their inner self and coaching them to improve their attitude or inter-personal skills. We need a get stuck in or get-out leader to provide a rallying point in the dressing room, given the never-ending chaos and Ess H one TE above that level.
If this bloke flops it IS the end. Venkies will not convince any other manager to attend his own career funeral at Ewood, and the costs of running BRFC can't be downscaled to match the income from crowds of 4,000.
And when does the dear old league, FA or whoever runs this "world sports leader" start to investigate incompetent ownership - or do they care (we know that answer!)?
So, chinny up chaps, we will outlast these idiots but it won't be quick and it certainly won't be pretty.
Reachin fer mi bockle now...

but once a fan is always a fan surely, far away or not, we still want to win don't we, far away or not?
Seems far away in miles and years to me but ever hopeful!

Duggy I am putting your name forward as next manager- get in there and at least make them proud to wear the shirt.
Would rather sink with 11 players from Mill Hill/Shad etc than half the work shy lot we have at the moment.

Anyone who can read and was present with a sheet of Appleton's record should have been able to tell how at best he is a mediocre manager. Unfortunately Venkys don't seem to meet these requirements and their advisors obviously have ulterior motives. We're going nowhere until we get a decent manager.

Walkden, ready to serve!
We'll gladly have Shad lads but we'll need a couple of kickers from Anchor and Birch Hall estates i' Daren, we need a few who honed thur skills on Blacksnape, sorts the men from the boys up there (Kenny Bateson are you listening?), especially this week! Cheers for the nomination, I won't let you down and I would be a lot cheaper too, just keep me in pies and Thwaites
Oh BTW I also have a grand head of hair but would that disqualify me?
Dreamin'....
