Sam Allardyce named Blackburn Manager

There ARE other teams(we'd have no-one to play otherwise) and here's where all-comers can discuss the wider world of football......

Bye Bye Nolan, Davies, Hunt, Jaaskelainen, Gardner, Ben Haim, Stelios, Meite, Faye, Diouf and Anelka (at least the last six have already gone which will lowers the numbers for speculation). Considering who we have to play before we go to Ewood and who they have to play it looks like they might be above us.

I really hope they get beat by Blyth in the FA Cup now, even more than I already did. At least this guarantees our away end will be full when we play at Ewood.

I think he'll turn 'em round.

He may even put in a bid for Nolan and Davies, (after all, depending on what you read on here, Nolan's fat and sh*t and Davies hasn't played well in ages) :roll:

Good luck Sam, but you may have to take 'em down to bring 'em back up. I hope.
I wish him luck (only such much as it doesn't impact on us), but now he's based in the area our players are already resident in he can stay the fcuk away from them that's for sure! (Just as he did before when he went to the Toon and didn't nick any of our players, or backroom staff, in respecting the 'legacy' he said he was leaving behind for us and wouldn't be raiding... hmm)
Everything but the game: Because it's not just a game, it's a way of life.

Allardyce is officially the Premiership manager whore of the year.

Bruce and Rednapp are said to be beside themselves.

One of Rovers fans (many) complaints is that this was happening under Ince. It matters not. Young Roquefort will be off to City in a fortnight.

Some folk need to grow up and remember what he achieved for us. And if you were offered a job after being out of work for a year, you'd take it, even if it was for the Devil himself.

I'll always remember Sam with fondness. The football was a mixed bag, that's for sure, but there were times when it was just sublime.

I don't hate Blackburn anyway. They aren't interesting enough to hate. But I do hate Ewood, and don't intend ever going there again.

Just when you thought it wasn't possible for there to be any more empty seats at Ewok, here's the solution!

Ever thankful for the work he did in making this club the way it is today, but at this moment in time, I can't think of a better marriage than Dingleville and Allardyce.

Respect for what he did for us,

Less for the way and state he left us in!!!!!

None for becoming a Dingle,

what a fall from grace if ever there was one, Sunderland I could have lived with, Dingles, just up the road in the radioactive wastelands?

ffs SAM YOU REALLY ARE INSENSITIVE!!!!

Robbie Savage now seems like a saint. Did he have to take this job? doubt the cash from Ashley has run out yet!

Still nowt like a few chorus's of "Who ate all the pies" along with "Your just a six fingered Dingle" should cheer us up or even the old Elvis song "Your the Dingle in disguise".

I now sit back and wait for BWFCI's praise to be brought forwards :vomit:

Its like a bitter break up with an ex girlfriend.

You have really fond memories of your times together, you fell out a bit when she moved in with a guy up the road and took a few of your belongings, but now you hate the slag beacuse she's gobbling your next door neighbour!

filthy whore.

I can't wait for Mr Science himself to turn up to training to see players running up and down the moors with rocks in their rucksacks and Archie Knox stood at the top of the hill with a stop clock.

This is horrid, can't believe he's at the enemy. The General's put it very aptly.
