APPLETON SACKED

Oh dear... be careful what you wish for.

I was thinking more of their fans (apart from BH, of course). They're a club like ours- Lancashire born and bred,a long history -and the majority of their fans are loyal and sensible. A bit like ours.
It's they who are seeing their club destroyed by these utter clowns.

The only way for the Blackburn fans to get shut off the Venky's is to vote with their wallets.

If only they had got Santa Cruz back and changed the name of ewood park, they would probably be in the top 4 by now......

The Venkys made the right choice sacking Appleton, he has done nothing in his managerial career to suggest he is anything but useless. I despise Appleton and hope this is the end of his short career.

At least the players wont go hungry. Personally, I wouldn't recommend chicken immediately before kick off or at half time. An orange would be a much better source of energy.

making Blackburn the biggest in football ever.

I'd like to hear the good Doctor Matt Smith's thoughts this afternoon....

I wouldn't be surprised if Shebby Singh made himself the next manager.

If there's any truth in the "new manager effect" theory, it's amazing that Rovers aren't top of the league. Maybe that's the plan - get a new manager in every week?
Problem now is that the fans won't be happy with anyone appointed by the Venky's and the Venky's won't be happy with anyone who doesn't bring instant success.
Can't see Rovers going down, but they're doing their damnedest to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

Can't help thinking that Appleton has got his just deserts - literally, he deserted Portsmouth then Blackpool and as NW says without any sort of managerial record. Must be a novelty for the boot to be on the other foot, eh Michael??

Do you think they will be going for their very own 'Manager of the Season' award??

Shabby is back and he's got two new books to promote........

I don't know what all the fuss is about. The Venkys made a shit decision to appoint Appleton but rather than give the fool until Christmas to ruin the club they got rid at the first opportunity. They clearly aren't scared to admit their mistakes.

I'll bet they get the next decision right, but I have faith that Gary Bowyer will sneak us into the play-offs.

This is getting beyond a joke now. Surely the fa must step in, they're firing managers for fun without giving them a chance.

I trust the FA will step in...

Absolutely pathetic what is going on at Blackburn.

That could happen to any of us really. If the Venky's chose Bolton and not Blackburn thereis little we could do to stop it.

I think they have a case for FC Rovers of Blackburn to be set up.
Perhaps all the fans should not turn up to the next three games. Force the Venks to sell up?

Appleton must be wondering what he's gotta do to hold down a job.

But it was a stupid decision to join Blackburn in the first place. He'd have at least had a fair crack at the whip at Blackpool under Oyston. Venky's are just a set of loonies.

The Oystons are pretty mental tbh.

I doubt they'd have sacked him by now though.

There's plenty of chickens to be killed, so they don't give a fuck.

OC might end up there for a few weeks yet.

I might go and watch them one day for a laugh.

Coyle is 10-1 at the moment.
