I’m trying to think of a reason not to agree with that post. But don’t think I can!

2.25 years left on his contract. No chance.

Errrr how do o break this to you. Football contracts are the same as every other employment contract and he will have a probation period. Therefore it’s usually cheaper to dispense that way.

And before someone starts to complain, this is what the problem is.

Notice it’s after JDT and not Eustace a record.
there is a rot at this club be under no illusion about that. It’s a poor quality team but if JDT had lost the dressing room as some suspect well JE has never found it has he? It’s a shame because he’s a top bloke, but all this waffle about togetherness needs to stop.

He has not found the dressing room yet because I get the feeling the players are still shell shocked after the last transfer window and JDTs exit from the club. The question is if he can find it before the end of the season ,which I really hope he can, because otherwise we might have to find it in League 1 with someone else.
I think this will be my last comparison with JDT for a while because there is no point looking back on a manager who clearly didn't have an interest to stay with us or sort out the problems with the team he had.

Bit unfair imo
We have no idea what JDT was promised
Everyone has a right to leave a job they are not happy in. Football managers are no different to the rest of us - the only difference is the money involved and the contract terms
Let's see what Broughton has to say - it might (although I doubt it will) give us some insight into what has been happening
One thing is certain - we have managed to fuck three consecutive windows up - I would be super pissed if I was expected to produce results but wasn't given the tools I had been assured would be supplied.
None of those players have an emotional involvement in Rovers (maybe Wharton and those through the ranks are exceptions) they are all doing a job and will be gone in a heart beat if the offer is right. Being stuck somewhere you don't want to be is going to lower productivity
I like Broughton but surely his silence is like gardening leave. Then what’s left?

And still, these clueless clowns are working within the club. I wonder how the board meetings are? Venkys must be as clueless as the ones sitting in higher level management at Blackburn Rovers.

That's kind of what I'm saying.
He is supposed to be explaining the transfer window - maybe there will be messages between the lines
I ain't holding my breath though

Excellent post and you’ve hit the nail on the head. Venkys out.

A contract for a length of time is just that. It's different to regular employment and breaking a contract involves reparations from the party that broke it. Tomassons efforts to get out of his contract were reprehensible imo and could lead us to league 1 oblivion.
