Again Alan. There is no need for that. It’s very very reasonable to want the team to win but also think the ownership and the COO are a basket case. Which they are. There is no debate about that surely. The Championship is long and gruelling, and will the signing we are playing Russian Roulette.

So you think what has happened in Ewood Park is normal? Women’s Team, Waggot, Eustace, Indian Courts, JDT, O’Brien, McGuire. And that’s only a few.
Not to mention nobody signs a new contract. But yeah, Rovers fans have an agenda. As you said, do me a favour.

Again, this not a fair characterisation. Nobody in their right mind wants their team to lose. Surely the problem is why nobody wants to commit. The issues at the club are there for all to be seen. Framing fans that are concerned, and correctly so is wrong. Only my opinion.

With all due respect Alan. You have said multiple times about losing experience. One win today doesn’t change the concerns a Rovers fan would have. Rovers are a continious basket case behind the scenes. You know that more than anyone. We will be in the exact same position in 12 months.

Which part do you mind me asking?

Fair enough. The worry is goals. None of the signings suggest goals are coming. Unfortunately the esteemed COO confirmed in the recent Fans Forum that fee’s received will not be reinvested. Doesn’t bode well. Distinct lack of leadership and experience throughout the team.

Objectively, considering the players who have left Blackburn Rovers, and how they replaced them, would you deem this window a success?

Aitor Karanka would be an awful choice. His last 2 jobs in the Championship, win percentage of 30% at Forest, even worse 21% at Birmingham, then went to Granada and did last 6 months, earlier this season he was rejected by league 1 Bristol Rovers.

Still no new manager. I am all for taking your time but it is clear they had no succession plan and even though it has been clear that JE would leave, there was no planning done. This was the ideal week as it was a clear week to get the new manager in and give time to work with the players.

Spoke to three on Friday. Due to speak to three or four this week. Imagine get down to a final two and get serious on main aspects. Maybe end of week. Maybe next.

Makes sense. Obviously they do not have a preferred option like Eustace was a year ago. Would you expect movement on the search this week. Seems to be very quiet regarding potential targets.

Normally have a short list. It’s a group of four working on it. They will know some people but won’t know them all. So good idea to speak to as many as think need to.

@reluctantnicko.bsky.social Alan a bit of a random one. What’s the usual process for a new manager interview. For Rovers, would there be multiple rounds of interviews? What would a typical interview include?
