YATESY

He's fcuked. Blackburn fans have started the ball-rolling and seen the "success" anti-Megson support had at The Reebok. He's never been accepted since day one but unlike with Megson, the Ewood inbreds have lived with him a little easier than we did with Megson. The tide is turning now but FFS, they are a good few places clear of the drop zone and have a Carling Cup semi - if the media went mad at "us" forcing Megson out, imagine how they will react to this!

Its from Mr Nixon, so another cert: Holden

They really don't get it do they! The shite atmosphere and football we play owes a lot to the previous bloody manager. He has gone now, FFS!

If I recall correctly, the change Big Sam made at West Brom wasn't exactly met with cheers and applause. 10 minutes it was 2-2 and the rest, as you say, is history. It is such a thin line. IF the game at Wigan had been on, I'm pretty sure we could / should / would have won that game, and then hung on against Hull - we would now be 5 points better off, sat in mid-table and all rosey in the Megson household.

Radio 5 this morning says Laws is heading back to Burnley today to tidy up the terms. Brian Laws, you have to laugh. It totally backs up Owen's call that they are 5 to 10 years behind us!

Going off Nixon exclusives, that's a done deal then! Tyls has lost his mantle now we've got this bloke on side.

Knock it down a notch or two and its similar to Megson at Bolton. Not many Blackburn fans wanted FSA from the off but were prepared to give him time to get them out of the mess Paul Ince had left the club in. Now 2 years on and the football is still typical FSA style, the natives are getting restless. Two of my mates who are Rovers season ticket holders have commented that Rovers fans have seen the end result of months of abuse that Megson suffered at Bolton and want some of the same. Yes, they are above their station, where they belong and as good as its going to get but wasn't that what the world thought of us two weeks ago! Fan power is on the move and its starting to arrive at the inbred town called Blackburn. Big Sam watch out!

4 million for Elmander at any time is good business. Lets be honest here, the only way his value is going to increase beyond that is if he gets in the team and starts scoring. He's only "worth" 4 million because he was valued at 11 million when we spunked good money on him. Give Coyle a week to have a good look at him close up in training. If Coyle can see something in him that gives Elmander a chance to start some games, then keep him. Otherwise cut our losses, blame it on Megson and get rid.

If there's money left in the pot after filling the holes that need more attention, then why not - lets get the lad in for 6 months.

His record at Wolves on the Academy side was pretty good, wonder if Owen was looking to push him back down there?

Right winger. Is this an area of the team that our wage bill should be being spent on?

Hold your horses lads. Clean slate for all the keepers with a new manager and goalkeeping coach. Jussi might have 400+ appearances but that may not count for as much as you think. Coyle couldn't have been impressed with Jussi's part (or lack of it) in the Burnley goal on Boxing Day.

Not a chance. There is no way Wenger will loan him to Bolton.

Matey, I wouldn't get too excited about the use of "we". Big Sam was on Radio 5 last night during a discussion on English Coaches and he repeatedly used the word "we" when talking about his time at Bolton and what "we" achieved thanks to his great knowledge of the game and modern methods! Most managers use the term "we", its just our previous manager who struggled with it!

One of the two who did. The Burnley fans are even more pissed off now, one of their own leaving the caretaker job to follow Judas to The Reebok! On another shout, Gartside has a big challenge to break the Coyle / Nixon partnership - Burnley failed despite many attempts.

Used to be the case. Just reading his biog on official website and it appears he's full time Barber

Its taken Barber bloody long enough.

First time i've seen that. FFS living in the town and playing in the Bolton League for the Bury club is the best reasons the Red Ginger can think of for the Doctorate. Bolton Uni hang your head.

To find time for us on Radio Manchester City, I can only assume that Ian Cheeseman is on holiday? He would never allow such reporting unless there was a Man City angle to it.

The peak of Henric's Bolton career was that tackle on Neville at OT. The Red Ginger has never really recovered from that.

Tossers. I still don't get this "sidewards" move shit. Everything but the current league table shows that Coyle is moving onwards and upwards. Sky summed it up last night, a video from history of Coyle walking out of the shit-hole that is Turf Moor and then him walking out of the modern glass fronted Reebok. Enough said.

I'll be amazed if both of them play. Davies doesn't fit into an Owen Coyle team and Knight closed his own coffin with that performance at Burnley. I'll take a draw of any score line.

It removes the biggest excuse that many absent friends used.

add Tony Cunningham to that list too, that's why we signed the lad!
