The fans won't ever be happy with Kean in charge. There are a couple groups of local businessmen looking into buying the club apparently, but at the moment the Venkys want nothing to do with them.

3 points and a clean sheet, great day for the boys. We were on a 30 game streak without a clean sheet going into the game

2 clean sheets in a row, wow I'm in shock. Bolton away next, if we could pick up a win there it will go along way to avoiding the drop.

Hosting Liverpool overnight, a win would be massive step towards avoiding the drop.

Bah humbug, hope that point lost doesn't come back to haunt us.

If we don't pick up any points today, I think it is safe to say we are heading down.

Hopefully it's a purging, Newcastle-style relegation, not a Leeds-esque descent into the depths.

The new owners will probably pocket the parachute money, sell off anyone with any talent, cause the club to drop down another division and be a foot note on the Premier League's history in the next few years.

We needed you guys to lose after Sean Wright-Phillips put in yet another headless chicken display. WTF Mark Hughes sees in him that no one else can, God only knows. And what everyone else CAN see and Mark Hughes can't is a mystery beholding Mr S. Holmes himself.

Barton wasn't much last night again either.
Proud to have attended the first 175 Consecutive "Home" Wellington Phoenix "A League" Games !!

The Ruf, The Ruf, The Ruf is on Fire!!

I think Burnley fan's will have a heck of a year next season. Two derby games and the way the club is being run, a chance to see Rovers drop another division.

Steve Kean described it as an 'exciting time' for the club. 

Damn these new smileys are terrible.

Every time he opens his mouth, he says something stupid. He compared Goodwillie to a young Rooney, Ribeiro to Dennis Irwin when we signed them. He really doesn't have a clue.

Steve must have been misquoted.  Surely, what he meant to say it was an "exiting time" for the club.

Exciting times indeed though for followers of the old school clubs of Lancashire.  With Susan Coyle's lot going down as well (Yeeeeessss!), there's going to be a few feisty moments in that neck of the woods next season.

It's been a magic week.  An absolute schadenfreudfest.

I know, I know, its serious!

Haven't seen it confirmed but I was told by a mate in the UK, that Man City winning the league cost us a 2 mil add-on on the Phil Jones transfer to United.

Another hapless performance. This time MK Dons manage to put away their chances, something the Championship teams we have faced haven't done so far.

Watching Nelsen against Chelski this weekend really made me miss seeing him in a Rover's shirt. We could use his experience and skill because we can't defend for toffee atm. Scoring goals wasn't our problem last year, it was that we needed to score 3 to win because of the defence.

Also sounds like N'Zonzi had a good game for Stoke. Kean really has dismantled a pretty decent Rover's team, and replaced it with generally poor replacements.

Another win this morning. Reading the Rover's forums, it sounds like it was another completely undeserved win. BBC has us at 39% possession at home, against a Barnsley team that had lost their last 4 away games.

If we had a decent manager, we would get promotion. But eventually Kean's luck will run out and we will finish outside the play off spots.

Well that's only about a year and a half overdue!

I'm guessing its that final figure that made the Venky's finally take notice of the fans.

Henning Berg appointed as manager, will be interesting to see how he goes.

Especially as he was quoted less than a year ago as saying you would have to be  mad to manage Blackburn

Late equaliser by Burnley to draw the derby. Any other game that would be a disappointment, but making sure we didn't lose was the most important aspect.

Berg sacked after 57 days, with little or no fan pressure. Venkys don't have a clue what they are doing.
