Did anybody else hear the fire cracker after the second goal? Sounded like it came from the top tier..

How European!

Was Cahill, Bobo.
Thought Sky said after the match that it was NRC?

Yes. Is that what it was? Thought someone had been shot. I shat missen and I was sat on the halfway line!

Cahill was wearing the armband from what I could see.

Yep.

Ermm I feel sorry for him too.

Any right minded person would.

That club is being turned into a joke and it 100% is not Kean's fault...

And what the feck's it got to do with Jack Straw? Thought he'd be busy trying to force Mrs Venky to take her burka off in his presence. :conf:

Seriously, Bish, I'm convinced that many of them wanted us to score first last night just so that they could get on his case.

It was nasty, proper nasty...

I wouldn't mind but Kean is taking the blame for their owners who clearly know nothing about football, Blackburn, or as it seems running a sports business in the UK.

Chatting to one of their fans last night prior to the game he said he'd heard that they didn't even know relegation existed till they'd bought the club, let alone the consequences of....

Its ridiculous, who else could have done any better than Kean in those ridiculous circumstances? Well more's to the point who would have stuck around to try?

I don't feel sorry for the guy. Every manager knows what they're getting in to when they take the job. He's also signed two improved deals since he started just 12 months ago. He's doing very nicely out of this.

Blackburn fans have every right to be angry at the front man of the corporation which is slowly destroying their club. If we were in their position we'd be behaving in the exact same manner.

Anyway we've got enough to worry about right now, what with us teetering on the brink of doom ourselves to care what troubles the Rovers manager may be going through.

Besides, it wasn't so very long ago since all and sundry were calling us a bunch of cnuts for giving Megson a hard time. Well, I say hard time, the sum total of our rage was a picture doing the rounds on the internet of Batman stood next to an A4 sized paper sign with the words MEGSON OUT on it and two people in the North Stand waving a slogan painted bedsheet.

I doubt anybody's getting carried away. We just have to hope. We hit rock-bottom so now we have to start climbing back. The brilliant fans were part of the win last night. Keep it up.
