Steve Kean is on the brink of being sacked as manager of Blackburn Rovers.

Owners Venky's have been in talks about Kean's position for the past 48 hours, despite the club being in an automatic promotion place in the Championship.

For me, this is ridiculous. If they were going to sack him - they should have done it at Christmas time last season. Now that they are actually playing really well - they are considering give him the boot.

Crazy times. It reminds me of when Leicester got shot of Sven at a similar point in the season. They never quiet recovered - I wonder if something similar will happen here.

Hope so, mind you I watched their game against Boro on the weekend and they were completely outplayed.

It is foolish but the more turmoil at other clubs the better, frankly.

I agree with Arkay, unfortunately for Mr Kean, if he goes it will possibly unsettle the players more, which is only good for us.

Will we have to deal with Malky to Blackburn speculation if the job becomes vacant? Hopefully they'll take Holloway and he'll flop, taking out two of our rivals in one fell swoop.

Oh crap. Didn't think of that.

I can't imagine Malky would take it..........would he?! Rolling Eyes


Surely he would want to see out what he has started here

I don't think Malky would go but the speculation might unsettle things for a week or two.

He wouldn't take it. The venky's haven't got a clue about football and everyone knows it. If Kean is on the verge after one loss who would want it?

I bet Sven is licking his lips at this.

Saying that, BBC Gossip column puts Shearer as favourite.

Bloody marvelous!

Oh hang on a minute...bbc are reporting the Kean is to stay.



But for how long really? A couple of back to back losses and he will be gone.

Kean, as sincere a chap he seems, is a great help to Cardiff's chances as Blackburn will play better with a better manager. If he does go I hope they appoint someone from one of our big rivals such as Holloway or Poyet so it takes out a contender!
