“If you want the rainbow, you got to put up with the rain.' Do you know which philosopher said that? Dolly Parton. And people say she's just a big pair of tits.
@WisdenCricket@ctshirts@StuartBroad8 “So professional”
The game finished before 1pm. He had 11 hours to drink with people and then keep to a curfew that he helped introduce.
A curfew that is only in place for 6 weeks out of a summer.
He shouldn’t be sacked, but he isn’t a victim either.
LANCASHIRE LIGHTNING WIN BY 7 WICKETS! 😍
Take a bow, Liam Livingstone! An explosive 85 not out from the all-rounder leads a sensational 10 over chase!

If Ben Stokes gets suspended for the next game. We'll then have Harry Brook talking to Sky Sports about the importance of team discipline and not being out late at night.
This may be one of the most disappointing appointments I've ever seen under Vevkys. To go from the possibility of building something exciting under O'Neill to going backwards to Mowbray just sums up how shit Venky's ownership of Rovers has been. I'm tired of this shit.
The Raos and Suhail decided 4 years ago they wanted to move on from Tony Mowbray, without the decency to be straight with him.
4 years later, and we are back to square one. Uninspiring, rudderless and lacking any form of ambition.
I love Tony as much as any Rovers fan, and will back him, but this is pathetic. It’s just utterly depressing that this is the best they can come up with.
Simon Doull says that Jofra Archer being unavailable for England’s first New Zealand Test, following his involvement in the IPL, is “completely wrong” 👀
Not ideal but unsurprising that the club have to clear up a statement with another statement. If they understood the fans instead of using AI this wouldn’t happened.
But it shows the lack of authority and joined up thinking which seems to be also taking place regarding the manager.
One group wants Bilic. Another wants Challinor and another is heading for Europe to speak with a candidate. This is another example of a lack of experience and expertise. Curwood needs to clean house. The board is an embarrassment. They only care for themselves and protecting their jobs.
SC hasn’t even officially commenced his role, but has already made the owners acutely aware that RG is vastly inexperienced and lacking competence in role.
Wouldn’t bet on RG being around much longer.
Unsure of impact on SP (if any).
Interesting times ahead, maybe.
🚨 | EXCL: Understand Valentin Joseph will not be staying at Blackburn this summer.
Joseph wants to venture abroad. At the time of writing, Anderlecht, Rangers, and Wolfsburg are the most likely destinations. Rovers will receive good compensation.

🚨 OFFICIAL - VAR will now be allowed to intervene on TWO additional situations at this World Cup:
• Wrongly awarded corner kicks
• Incorrect yellow cards given by the referee (single yellow only)
All other decisions will remain under the current VAR protocol and cannot be reviewed.
A piece that encapsulates the arrogance of Rudy Gestede
Under his guidance, the club went from 7th to having the third worst record in the league. Tore apart a competitive squad. A toxic relationship between him and the fans of the club. A bluffer of the highest order.
His arrogance is his primary trait, he is currently in a job, that he is failing at, without the required experience and here he is pimping himself out as some guru to get a move.
Ligue 1 can have him, we certainly don’t want him. He should have resigned already.
@simonhfootball@_ElliottJackson You make a very sensible point. On the other hand, gestede isn't a good thing for blackburn rovers football club. He's this combination of arrogant and incompetent, which makes him dangerous and infuriating.
