Dunno Tim O'Shea is the manager for Cray Wanderers if that helpsFumbluff said:Anyone know who’s the manager at Cray Valley?0 -
It's quite incredible to think that, mainly due to injury. Lisbie only made 155 starts for us, in the11 years between the ages of 18 and 29, but went on to play until he was 44 during which time he made another 347 starts.11

their owner is an absolute nutcase
Chairman & owners are idiots.
The chairman will be solely responsible for their relegation should it happen.

Edu has to take a lot of the blame as well, seeing that it was mainly the clash between Nuno and Edu which got Nuno the sack.golfaddick said:

Edu was unpopular at Arsenal. Bloke is not up to the job.0 -

That’s a bizarre appointment and I think makes Blackburn favourites for the drop behind WednesdayMarcusH26 said:https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/clyz2lnd5j1o

Just heard that...hope it doesn't perk Rovers up.....but if we can win 3-4 more games and get a few draws it won't matter to us.MarcusH26 said:https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/clyz2lnd5j1o

Not someone I would have even considered in the frame but it will take a herculean effort to try and sort this Blackburn side out, I agree it probably makes them favs with Sheffield Wednesday though.Valley11 said:

Not convinced this will be a huge distraction. He's been NI manager for a few years so he probably already knows 95% of his squad and who his XI will be if fit.fenaddick said:This is insane and something straight out of a video game. Blackburn have now moved onto Michael O’Neil but it looks like he’ll stay Northern Ireland manager too. With the March international window leading into the important Easter weekend it seems a particularly bizarre decision

It's also highly likely they will lose to Italy and he'll be back in Blackburn on the 27th.1 -

People often highlight that Nathan comes across as eccentric, but choosing to work as an international manager qualifying for the World Cup and a domestic side in a relegation fight at the same time, just seems ridiculous to me.2

Paul Gallagher sacked by Barrow after FIVE games in charge, making Forest seem like a bastion of stability. Immediately replaced by Dino Maamria.0 -
If o Neil is to manage blackburn and n.Ireland, they need to get the back team right. If o Neil takes his n.Ireland back room staff with him, who takes training, plans for matches etc when they are gone0

Blackburn are down with that appointment. O'Neill has been good for NI (part-time job) but his club management CV isn't all that - failed badly the only time he managed a team in the EFL.0

Sometimes people who failed at Stoke can do ok though....bobmunro said:Blackburn are down with that appointment. O'Neill has been good for NI (part-time job) but his club management CV isn't all that - failed badly the only time he managed a team in the EFL.
(And he did better at Stoke than Nathan Jones did).1 -
I wonder what NI supporters think about it. A chance of going to the WC & their manager will now have one eye on a relegation battle in the EFL. He should have his full focus on one or the other....not both.6

Feels like transfermarkt available managers search. Didn't think his record was any good at all at Juve.fenaddick said:

I'm not saying i'd want him as our manager and i definitely wouldn't want the Venky's as owners. I'm simply saying that i don't see him being away for 5 days with Northern Ireland as that big a distraction in the overall relegation picture. If he starts getting results at Blackburn no one will care.FirenzeAddick said:Chris_from_Sidcup said:

But there isn't, because it's not a smart move.1 -
Sounds like Glasner is set to be sacked by Palace5
