Blackburn's mental owners threaten to sack Kean

[trickytrees]

Steve Kean faces sack if Blackburn lose first three games

Thank god we haven't got these kind of owners.

[LTLF Sponsors]

[Col]

Me too, so glad our owners seem to be normal!

[incapable hulk]

That shebby singh is an utter div.

Its brilliant they appointed someone so completely mental as he will help that club along the path to oblivion.

[chriscl]

Embarrassing.

[TheDude]

Some journalists were saying our owners were a new Venkeys

[weasel]

I don't think there's anything wrong with sacking after 3 successive defeats, it's a miracle he's not been sacked anyway. But to say it in public is unprecedented and undermines the manager to the point of humiliation. Just plain crazy.

[big jay]

Steve Kean is a useless knob and Venky's are a joke, promotion or bust for this shower i think!

[Alex]

The bizarre thing is that his job is safe unless his loses three games in a row. Most managers would kill to have the safety net of knowing a point every three matches keeps you employed, especially if they've just come from the Premiership into the Championship.

Still, who would want that job if he went?

[bwb]

Now he's having at pop at Morten Gamst Pedersen:

"Morten Gamst Pedersen used to be a fantastic left winger. Unfortunately he has not reinvented himself as a central midfielder.

"He has got a clean slate. He has lost his legs, he's not been contributing to the team.

"We want people who can run and run, and keep running for 90 minutes for the cause. We are not here to entertain big names, I am sorry, and this is why teams fail.

"Morten Gamst Pedersen, under Sam Allardyce, was possibly three years younger. Wingers lose their pace and if they can't reinvent themselves as central midfielders they are, quite literally, of no use.

"There are players who are past their sell-by-date. If this club wants to move forward, you need energy, you need vigour."

Surely no sane manager would take that job on with that bunch of interfering idiots in charge?

[Raddy's Stocking]

Bet the Rovers fans are loving this... I can see them bed sheets out again... KEAN OUT

[Black Rose]

I think a few Blackburn fans hope that they lose the first three games.

[PynchonForest]

I think Kean has gotten an awful lot of unfair treatment over the debacle at Blackburn. The Venkys have been disingenuous to the extreme. From the git go they have not lived up to expectations.

But I've always hated Blackburn, so who cares?

[mouldynffc]

Should have been sacked a long time ago really.

Can't help but feel sorry for the guy though.

[incapable hulk]

Surely no sane manager would take that job on with that bunch of interfering idiots in charge?

Paul Ince would probably apply for his old job...

[PynchonForest]

Hey, Ince's kid is ok.

Winger too.

[NottmForest4Ever]

Now he's come out and apologised haha!

[Caveman Ninja]

Hope that Blackburn crash and burn, I fecking hate them!

so presumably he is happy with the signing of danny murphy then

[congo_red]

I think it would be the perfect job for Billy Davies...

[weasel]

The bizarre thing is that his job is safe unless his loses three games in a row.

When did anyone say that?

[Red Dawn]

What a disaster that place is.

If Kean had any ounce of respect he'd have walked ages ago

[Col]

He'll not be there by Christmas, most likely gone well before. Even if they start off well, I can see the new owners interfering and someone else coming in.

[Alf-Inge of Fudge]

I think it would be the perfect job for Billy Davies...

He'd certainly have more backing at Blackburn.......

[Col]

Well he's certainly been well sought after since leaving Forest. Those job offers have never stopped rolling in, if Blackburn had any sense they'd install him as manager immediately.
