By Venky's standards he's Brian fucking Clough.

In other news, Sean Dyche is the new Burnley manager,
BR.
Care to say a little more about his time in Norway? All I know is he did well at Lyn without a lot of money but not so well at Lillestrom. So a mixed bag so far really.
I'm still pretty happy though, he's defo 'one of us', had some great times with us and knows how well the club was run pre-Venky's.

What made me say what I said, is his track record as coach in the mediocre Norwegian Tippeligaen and his football philosophy. Or should I say the lack of it. I fail to see what Berg wants with his teams, other than a good, organised back four. He's also been criticized for his leadership style, but then again that's something that could work out better in an English football climate. Had it not been for his history as a Blackburn player I doubt he'd be even considered for the role and that's the point I'm trying to make; it seems to me that he's not only there because of his qualities as a coach/manager. Opposite to Solbakken at Wolves for instance. But hey, you never know in football eh.
Oh and another former Blackburn player, Martin Andresen's being linked to the Crystal Palace job. Norwegian manager invasion in the Championship.

Fair enough, cheers. Time will tell I guess. Would love it if he does well. For now though, it just feels nice to have someone in charge who the fans can respect and relate to. Andresen was pretty average haha, didn't know he went into management.
Holloway to Palace, if it goes through, would be an interesting one. I get the impression he thinks things have become a little stale at Blackpool. As long as he isn't in charge for tomorrow!

Going to Huddersfield on Tuesday, hopefully we do a lot, lot better.

See the guy who put on the firemans trousers and fell over? Got some great shots of him falling

Draw a fair result. Blackburn have good players, but they're a million miles from being a team.

Loads of people on my facebook have been going loopy over how bad the ref was

Edit - just seen the penalty incident, yeah he did get the ball.

Didn't think you were that comfortable. We'd had two great chances in the minutes leading up to the goal. Granted, the goal itself was from a hopeful long ball and a miscued header from a defender, but it wasn't like you'd been keeping us entirely at arm's length.

It's also nice to have something we both enjoy doing together, I think Kayla prefers non-league too as everyone appears to be of a more friendly demeanor and will make an effort to strike up a conversation even though it's fairly obvious we are newcomers to the club.
I still support Walsall of course and will head over there as often as my personal finances allow but I think if the misses and I continue in this vein we may end up getting season tickets at Gresley next year.

First one is Ethan Ebanks-Landell, a central defender who joins on a months loan from Wolves. I don't know him but a CB pairing of Hughes and anyone that is better than Lockwood will do for me.
Second player is Tom Soares. Well, I heard he HAD some talent but has gone down ever since leaving Stoke and coulsn't cut it at Hibs. If he does play well, I don't care where they come from but I find it interesting that we're not only signing "easy characters" but also players who have their oddities. Looking for the game against managerless Portsmouth tomorrow.

Has Joel Ekstrand played much?

One of the most notable things about today was how woeful Mido was for Barnsley when he came on. He made 4 contributions. His first was to almost cut Sean Scannell in two with a very late tackle (for which he was a little lucky not to get sent off), his second was to miscue a free header for a Town corner from the free-kick above, his third was to spray a ball into the path of a Town player in 30 yards of space and set an attack going, and his fourth was to get a final warning after an agricultural challenge on Peter Clarke. Absolute comedy gold!

Only a small display, nothing on what Rangers did, but we had a military band too, a bugler to play before and after the minutes silence and a prayer read out by a chaplain. Lest we forget.
