Nice one Jay. Hey, now we've found something else to fall out about. Still, the good thing about you being top (for now) is that there is no chance of the clown getting sacked. Bet there's mixed feelings on that one, eh?
Incidentally, I have posted on a couple of football forums that, despite my hatred of all things blue (political and football), I have a certain amount of sympathy with Rovers fans (honestly) because I don't think any fans should be treated in the way you lot have been by both your own owners and the media.
I'm glad Kean's still in charge because he's a prat but I don't think Venky's are fit to run a football club and, even if it meant improving Rovers, they should be gone.
Roll on December 2nd.

Well as bad as Kean is he seems to have the head over Howe, which makes him a really ducky:D

It's neck and neck at the moment and Charlie didn't cost us 8 million. A lot is made of your guy's 40 goals last season but it was in league one.
Hey, 34 years says the law of averages is on our side this season. Besides, as I have pointed out on other football forums, 34 years seems a lot but it's not actually that many games is it? Unless my history is wrong Man Utd have never won at Barnet and Barcelona have never beaten Stanley. Statistics, eh? Don't you just love 'em.

So you think Kean is better than Howe? Are you a convert? I thought all Rovers fans thought that Kean was the Devil incarnate? I believe Eddie (first names you see?) is the man for the job. Kean is only the man for the job if you're a Claret.

We're a better team with or without Kean, infact Dingles spend so much time try to put Rovers down they forget just what a crap club they support, always in our shadows;)

Not quite always Jay. I remember the sixties and seventies when we were the dominant side, in the first division when your lot were struggling in the second and third with crowds of 6 or 7 thousand. Things will change as they always have. We're not a big club but then again neither are you (or Bolton, Preston etc.) and our days of glory are over unless something is done about the obsession with money that pervades the whole game at it's higher level now.
I hate Rovers as much as you probably hate us and that's okay, but I grieve for the days when you could have a good side and keep it together for a couple of seasons without big clubs stealing your best players just to bolster already over large squads that are totally unnecessary.
If you look at the prem now, how totally uncompetitive is it. We used to laugh at the Scottish league with it's Celtic/Rangers dominance but we're not that different now. 20-odd years of the premiere league and only 5 champions, and two of them were one-offs (Rovers and City and they couldn't have done it without massive financial backing).
Rovers fans need just a little dose of reality. You punched above your weight for years on the back of Jack Walkers legacy and for that you are to be congratulated, but now you are back in the real world and you will realise that you are, after all, just a little Lancashire club just trying to get along.

The last time we were in the prem 11 seasons Uncle Jacks money was long gone, we stayed there through good sound management (John Williams) and have decent Managers, Hushes Souness Alladice, things only went tits up when Kean took over, he'll never be a manager as long as he has an hole in his backside, he just a chancer. The thing is Dingles always had those little Green eyes,, doubt if you'd be so critical if Burnley had had a benefactor like Jack Walker, a true fan watched Rovers from the terraces when he was a kid and then wanted to see them do well, unlike most premier clubs who have ,Arab American or Russian owners, there's only probably one club in England who could punch their weight without outside finances and that's United
But there's one thing I do agree with you its not about football these days its about who as the most money, as City and Chelski have proved, but even that doesn't totally guarantee success, ask Liverpool

You've got no argument from me about Rovers being a well run club, indeed they were, and Jack Walker was a genuine fan too. Your stay in the Premiere League was lengthy but then if you get a run in it the money kind of takes care of itself and you can at least survive for a while. But don't you think that "survival" is a poor thing to aspire to in football. Shouldn't all football fans be able to "realistically" dream of being, or at least challenging for, the championship?
Less than a year ago I posted on another forum about the desperate times at Rovers. At that time there was a real fear amongst Rovers fans that the club would go to the wall and I was totally sympathetic to the cause. Why?
Because I don't want to lose my old enemies and, just as importantly, I hate any football club being pushed over the edge due to the mis-management of foreign investors who think football in this country is a quick buck.
Just a point though: Clarets hatred of Rovers is nothing to do with jealousy. We hated you just as much when we were the top side in East Lancashire. It's just a local rivalry that I suppose will never end as long as the two sides exist, which I hope will be for a long time to come.

You're right Cashy, I was too young but I have heard about some problems because of Lord. It doesn't surprise me though. Burnley fans hated Lord. Okay, he was a hard headed business man and maybe through his dealings he kept the club in good financial order, but he also sold our best players almost on a whim. To this day, among Burnley fans of a certain age, the Bob Lord stand is known as the Martin Dobson stand due to the fact that his sale largely funded it. We had a great, potentially championship-winning side at the time but he dismantled it and we were relegated (twice) before disappearing into the depths of the lower leagues (and the scary Orient game).
I don't know the detail of the Stanley problem with Lord but I am sorry that my club had any involvement with their demise, but I think there is now a good relationship between the two clubs and long may that last. I know a lot of Clarets who go to Stanley as a second club and I hope that the people of Accrington wake up to the fact that there is a great (and very famous) football club, with real supporters, just a few minutes walk from the centre of town.

As far as I'm concerned I would think every club strives to attain the best league position they can, which ever division they're in, but competing with the cities chelskis and united of this world, makes it very hard to reach the pinnacle, hell will freeze over before another town club like Rovers wins it, but at least I was around to witness them playing and winning one of the best leagues in the world, example last nights game between the Toffees and the Toon, cracking game but very poor officials

When Kean sods of the gates will rocket, I'm disappointed that there are so many turning up, if the gates had been around 7 or 8 thousand, Venkys might just start to think about things, I'm on Rovers website all the time and there are thousand who won't go back to Ewood while that lying drunk is still there

I understand that,Jay, fan power can sometimes work, but do you really believe that any board is going to sack a manager whose team is top of the league and who is meeting the criteria they themselves set for his continued employment?
It is a strange situation you find yourselves in really. The only way you will get what you want (Kean's dismissal) is to lose a number of games to put yourselves in a situation from which you may never recover, promotion-wise.
Catch 22 is the term I think.

Well he did that last season and nothing happened, but when you have a chap advising the owners, who are clueless about running a football club, who is also the agent of the manager, hes hardly going to say to venky's the guys a ducky better get rid of him, its like saying ho I want a pay cut:rolleyes:
Only this morning its rumored that Southampton are lining up Rafa Benitez to take over as manager, after 5 games, if only. The thing that's saving Kean at the moment is luck, by is own works Rovers were crap last night and still won and that's been the story so far, but hey 14 form 18 points ain't bad I suppose

Tell you what though, Jay, didn't they set him a target of 17 points from the first seven games? I suppose that means if you don't win your next game he's gone. Could be wrong but if I'm not you've got light at the end of the tunnel. Here's hoping you win, eh?

Oh that was a rant from our "Global Adviser" I ask you flaming global adviser, I tell you while Jerome Anderson is whispering in the ear of the Venky's Kean won't be going anywhere, he's hardly likely to say he wants a pay cut is he, seeing he's Keanokio's Agent:rolleyes:

It could be worse, Jay, look at our lot last night. They've given up walking their dogs 'cos they can't hold a lead. Apparently great in the first half (even without Charlie) but completely lost the plot for the first 15 minutes of the second. I've come to the conclusion that if we combined the defensive capabilities of Burnley and Rovers we still wouldn't have a defence worth a damn.

Hang on a minute Rovers defence is bad but we ain't lost a do yet, played 6 won 4 drawn 2 lost 0, Burnley played 6 won 2 drawn 0 lost 4,, ya was keeping up with the nights events whilst watching Chelski and was a bit sad in the first half but ecstatic in the second:D

I agree with you, Jay, but my point is that neither team has a defence and you will only remain top as long as you keep scoring 3 goals a game. Burnley are scoring goals, just not as many as the opposition.

Well no, we've won 1-0 2-1 2-1 and 5-3 the idea is to hopefully score more goals that your matchday opponents, but if we had a better defence it would make it easier, but hey who cares, the only problem I have is numb nuts is still manager. Ive read in the papers that your ex manager Judas has two games to save his job, maybe he'll make a return to turd moor:D:D:D

It could be worse. They could be bringing back Laws. If Laws and Kean were to combine to write a book about football they wouldn't get past page one, and that would be an introduction.
By the way, you have the second worst defensive record in the top ten of the championship.

Oh my God, Cash, that's like saying the name of the dark lord in the Lord of the Rings!!! I'm making the sign of the cross as we speak! Actually we didn't do that badly on the field with him as I recall, he just left us so broke with all the "star" players he brought in that we nearly went out of business.
I remember we played Shrewsbury at home when he was in charge of them and he took the death threats so seriously his assistant manager took charge for the day and he stayed at home.
Possibly the most hated man in the history of BFC.

By the way, you have the second worst defensive record in the top ten of the championship.

Ya quite aware, but as long as the goal difference stays + couldn't care less really, no doubt things will improve coming up to Christmas:rolleyes:

He was disliked toward the end, Jay, but we did have some very good times with him as well. Not in the same class as Bond. Think the fire thing was either a myth or some drunken fool. Not sure of the truth of that. Don't know if it's ever been proved, but it wouldn't surprise me if it was.

Going back to the original post:
Charlie - 6 (and he didn't even play at Leicester).
8 million pound man - 5.
And there's still only 5 points in it.
By the way, is Kean still there? Thought he was on his way if he didn't get 17 points from 7 games? Same old, same old.

Kean stays!!! Just heard the interview with your delightful Mr. Singh on radio Lancs. Seems like a nice chap but obviously doesn't have a clue what's going on. The upshot seems to be though that Rovers are still stuck with the delightful Mr. Kean for the present.
Seriously though, what planet are Rovers distinguished owners on?
I think old Stevie boy has gone to them and told them just how much it's going to cost them to get rid and they don't like it much. Probably decided it's only a minor part of their organisation and they'll just live with it for now because they have more important things to think about.
Anyway, onwards and upwards. I'll see if our lot can dispose of Swindon tonight then it's back to the league at weekend.

The real person behind the debacle at Rovers is Jerome Anderson, Venky's special advisor, the only thing is he's hardly going to say to Venky's Sake Kean is he, it would be like saying a I want a pay cut, seeing he's Kean's agent. Whatever it costs Venky's to get rid of him would be well worth it in the long run, if, like they should have, got shut of him this time last year and got a proper manager in, I've no doubt Rovers would still be in the Prem, but this guy's just full of it, he believes his own hype, he's on his own little ego trip which he knows will be the end of his involvement in football, who would give this jerk a job brewing the tea at have time never mind coaching a team

Seriously, Jay, you have my grudging sympathy. The guy really is clueless but what can you do when you have owners who are even more clueless about football than he? The blind leading the blind really does apply here.
One thing I have noticed about Kean in his post matches though is how he always takes the positives from a game. He should have taken so many positives by now Rovers should have won the champions league, let alone the prem.

Ya that's his only excuse, how the prat could take any positives from last fridays debacle is beyond me. Just wondering how they passed the stringent tests set out by the FA about fit and proper persons to run a football club, they never learn. the all point is until last Friday Rovers record was, but its obvious not much store was put on how that was achieved, were outplayed by Leicester, Barnsley, Leeds, were lucky at Bristol but like what has been said in many quarters is you can't go through a season living on luck and you certainly don't get promotion with it either,

Think you have the point entirely. Kean apart, the record of Venkys is there for all to see. Yes, Kean is a clueless prat but he has obviously been let down by a bunch of people who clearly don't know the first thing about football and appear, having also spoken to Rovers friends, to have bought Rovers as some sort of plaything.
My feelings about the whole thing (for what they are worth being from the other side) is that, on the field of play I'm loving it (why wouldn't I, you would be the same) but from the bigger and non-biased picture, I wouldn't wish any of what is going on at Rovers on any football fan. You are being treated shamefully by your own owners and, may I say, by the media, who should be ashamed of having a go at fans who clearly love their club and only want the best for it.
I obviously want Kean to stay (as a Burnley fan) but as a football fan I really do wish you all the best of luck in ridding yourselves of the awful regime that is attempting to pass itself off as football club owners. A few more like Venkys in the league and it would be the death of football as we know it.

Barrie that happens at any club, a new manager wants his own team, no mater where it is be it Rovers United City Chelski even Stanley, and as for nobody wanting to work for Venky's think you'll find that's way of the mark, after all Burnley manage to replace Laws, didn't they:D

It certainly does Jay. How a club can expect to suddenly change their fortunes by changing the manager - especially mid transfer windows, is cloud cuckoo land. Liverpool, for example, are doing worse with Rodgers than with KK, and they are not the only ones.

It's not as bad in the Championship because they can bring players in on loan outside the transfer window. I think 3 football league managers have gone in the past week :eek:

Hmmm...

Ferguson replaced Atkinson mid transfer window with United at the bottom of the league...ended up mid table. Kinda shoots that argument out of the water.

Kean is tactically inept, he has one system, he cannot counter any changes made by an opposing manager, nor can he think on his feet. He just stands there expressionless, chewing gum, imagining he's the new Ferguson.

Really not that bothered. Yeah it would be nice to beat you but I am more interested in our results overall and the league position. I would take two defeats to Rovers if our other results meant promotion. It used to be said in Scotland that the other teams were too obsessed with beating Celtic and Rangers and if they just concentrated on beating all the others they would probably win the league. You have to keep your eye on the bigger picture and the bigger picture doesn't start and end with us beating Rovers, that's just a bonus.
And why are Rovers fans so obsessed with the "34 years and counting"? You call us obsessed. As I have pointed out before, it's only a handful of games. As I have said previously, by that yardstick you could claim well over a hundred years of not being beaten by Barcelona.

That may be so but it is only one example and the quality of players was already there - Atkinson (Mr Bling), was just too interested in his own image.

Your summing up of Kean is spot on Guinness, he's just hyped by his own inflated ego. The only reason he's still their is Jerome Anderson, Venky's "Special Adviser" (Rovers have more advisers than Barcelona:rolleyes:)doubt he'd go to Venky's and saw "you want shut of this guy he's useless" it would be like asking for a pay cut, seeing he's Keans agent as well, conflict of interests or what.

So you recon that Rovers would be better keeping hold of Keanokio, If Rovers had taken the same decision that Sunderland made after about 12 games into last season, I honestly believe Rovers would have retain Premier League status, Kean is the most inept manager I've every witnessed, he's not even one dimension he's no plan "B" or for that matter no plan "A" either, they my have had an half decent start to the season on paper but in reality it was only a matter of time before the luck ran out, which it did last Friday, big time, a totally abysmal performance.:mad:

Ya shows what you know about football, you think Alex Ferguson just picks the team at United, then sits back and doesn't, doesn't change systems uses his subs correctly, you think he's taken united to so many titles in 20 odd years by just sending a team out the going for a brew, get real

As I have said before Jay, sacking Kean means a big payout by VFC, didn't he get a 5 year contract not too long ago? If he walks then he gets nothing. As his chance of getting another club, especially in the higher leagues, is only a remote possibility he will no doubt wait to be sacked and be financially comfortable for the rest of his life.

Wasn't a 5 year contract, 3 at most and he's now into his 2 year, but that's short sighted, he's already took Rovers to relegation, and lost 10,000 from gates, its that silly flaming woman who keeps sticking her oar in, the brothers have wanted shut for over 12 months, its stupidity personified

Guinness 26-09-2012 19:28

Re: He's Jordan Rhodes
 
8 months left on his contract I believe..

A supporters website has upped the anti and are paying for a backpage banner advert along the lines of 'Let empty seats do the talking' in the LT in the week leading up to the next home game vs Wolves. Since its already booked and deposit paid, they even have plans for a choice farewell banner in case he gets the boot beforehand.

You haven't lost 10,000 from your gates because of the protests. You've lost 3/4,000 visiting fans because you're not in the prem and probably as many again because that's what happens to most clubs when relegated. I reckon that the most the protests have cost is about 2,000 tops.

Your talking twaddle as usual, season ticket sales last season were 15,000 this season its just over 5,000 looks like you have trouble with sums as well as other things

I recon cashy that if Kean is sacked at weekend the gate against Wolves will be up to 18k or 19k there are literally thousands that won't go to Ewood as long as Kean is still there

I definitely agree, Cash. They do need to be hit as hard as possible. Even though I'm a lifelong Claret, as I've said before the goings-on at Ewood are a disgrace and need to be halted before it happens again somewhere else.

They should be that anyway Jay because Wolves will bring 3/4,000.
