Fat Sam's a better manager than Baron Greenback. [/quote]

I *knew* I recognised him! That's fucking spot on.

Si Baroni

No-one else shit scared we'll finally get rid of Woycorpse to replace him with the fatheaded cunt?
 
I would probably stop supporting this club if we replaced Roy Hodgson with Sam Allardyce.

I would switch to Tranmere Rovers and wait patiently for a few years until we play 'the mighty reds' in a competitive league one match.

DE PLANE! DE PLANE!
 
Cbicken farmers appointing that mentalist Maradona to manage Blackburn Rovers.

Football is insane, and very, very funny.
 
The quicker Sam's in another job the quicker he's off our fucking TV's as a "pundit" so I'm all for it.

No, I meant West Ham or some other cunts.
 
Anyway, I'm surprised at the lack of shock in this thread?

Regardless of our opinion on the fucker, he's a good manager and has done a very good job at Blackburn. He took over when they were fucked, got them to 15th, then 10th, a Carling cup semi-final, and all this without a fucking penny to spend.

Who are they going to get that's better than him?

Maybe the new owners just think hes a bad tit?

He wanted control over transfers. The Indians want Kris Boyd and Geovanni.

As much as I dont like Sam, he did not deserve to be sacked and hes always got small clubs to punch above their weight.

No-one. They'll get some foreign wizard who'll waste all their money on Spanish & Italian has-beens, get sacked, and leave them in a relegation spot facing the prospect of appointing a troubleshooting English Manager to get them out of it.

Like Sam Allardyce.
 
"The Times" this morning says the problem arose when the owners wanted to bring in some Swiss sports consultancy to work on transfers. It adds that the Blackburn chairman and MD didn't want Lardbucket sacked.
 
As much as I want Hodgson sacked, Fat Sam will always be on the list of managers I would never ever want instead.

I am surprised that they fired him though. He's done a decent enough job for them

Can't copy the link but apparently they want maradona according to the mirror.

In Monday's gossip the Mirror reported that Sam was going to buy Charlie Adam ( for Blackburn) for 3M in January

[size=13pt]Rovers want British boss[/size]
*crosses fingers*

[size=12pt]New owners want 'good football' from new manager[/size]
*uncrosses fingers and stops reading*

Blackburn Rovers' new owners Venky's want the next manager of the club to be British following the sacking of Sam Allardyce.

Allardyce was dismissed on Monday without warning by the Indian consortium who took over in November; a decision that came as a major shock to fans, players and managers alike.

With the club sat in 13th place in the Premier League, few could have predicted the former Bolton boss being handed his P45 with such immediacy.

Venky's have received a backlash from stunned supporters following the dismissal, as well as condemnation from Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson, who was baffled by the sacking of his close friend.

Chairman Anuradha Desai shed some light on the decision, stating that they wanted Rovers to return to being a top-five club and that Allardyce did not have what it took, nor the entertainment value, to fulfil that ambition.

Mrs Desai however did concede that they wanted to bring in a British manager, but it would be left to temporary boss Steve Kean until a suitable replacement was found.

"We want good football and Blackburn to be fourth or fifth in the league or even better," read the statement.

"The fans should trust us because this is in the best interests of the club.

"It is nothing against Sam but we have a different vision looking forward and we want the club to grow.

"It is not about the Bolton match. It has been a long time in our minds.

"We wanted good football, wanted the games to be interesting and of course wanted to win and to have good players.

"Our thinking now is that it will be a British manager, but we are open if there is an outstanding candidate: someone who would be really, really good for the club.

"Right now Steve Kean will take over while we are looking for someone to take over on a permanent basis."

Diego Maradona has become a strong contender with the bookmakers despite the statement, but there has been no indication as to who is in the running as of yet.

“It is nothing against Sam but we have a different vision looking forward and we want the club to grow,†she said. “We had been talking to Sam in the past few weeks but he did not fit in with our vision for the club’s future.

“We wanted good football, wanted the games to be interesting and, of course, wanted to win and to have good players. We needed to do some changes and Sam going is, of course, the main change. This is a major step but it was needed. We thought, ‘Why delay?â€â€™

Sounds appropriate for our case?
 
Blackburn have confirmed they have had contact with Diego Maradona, but insist Steve Kean is set to take charge until the end of the season.

Indian firm Venky's, who bought the Lancashire club earlier this season, axed manager Sam Allardyce on Monday.

They have been linked with a host of names since, including Maradona, and their chairman Anuradha Desai confirmed they had made contact.

However, she also revealed that the plan is for Kean to stay in charge until the summer.

"We thought about Maradona as a coach after we took over," she said.

"Talks were at the initial stage then, but there is no development on that front yet.

"For now, the current coach will be the manager till the end of the season.

"There is no question of signing anyone for such a short time."

Desai says they have no qualms about former Fulham coach Kean being in charge.

"Kean is well connected with the game and the players as well. We have full faith that he will do the best job and keep the team motivated.

"He works long hours and is talented at his job.

"He also works well with our very skilful young players - and that is important."

Desai also insisted that chairman John Williams had not followed Allardyce out of the club.

"We have not taken any hasty decision in replacing the manager with the coach. It was a long, pending issue and it's a calculated risk," she said.

"I don't want to get into why we were unhappy with Allardyce, or any kind of negative remarks.

"John Williams is close to Allardyce but he is very much with us and he has not expressed any willingness to quit. His position in the team is safe."

I would absolutely love it if they appointed Maradona.
 
So they've sacked Allardyce mid-season but have no plans to replace him till the summer? They're completely barking mad.

The only British managers I can think of who fit their description are Owen Coyle and Harry Redknapp, and I can't see either of them going to Blackburn.
 
Maradonna won't be interested.

The wage Rovers are offering is chicken feed.
