Jurgen Klopp is leaving Liverpool at the end of the season. He’s had a great run. As a plastic Liverpool supporter, I’m hoping for a quadruple.

I am watching the Canadian FUBO soccer package on my panel. Premier League, the French league, the Italian league, the Turkish league, and the Dutch league. They also have the Africa Cup so I tested it watching Sadio Mane and Senegal in a match replay. Combined with ESPN+, I now have all the big European leagues.

As a Man Utd fan, I'm delighted.

Hope they get King Kenny back and spend another 30 years not winning a title.

Great manager, pleased to see the back of him.

As an Arsenal Fan I want to see Klopp at Man Utd, that would be just too funny

Blackburn Rovers 4 - Hollywood 1. No Ryan Reynolds sightings.

Rovers looked great against a League 2 club. The Magpies are next at Ewood. With Newcastle crashed out of Europe and mid table in the Premier League, they will be trying to win. Rovers don’t defend well enough to avoid a slaughter.

Crazy game at Molineux last night. That first half from United was the best I've seen them in the past few years, but as soon as Casimero and Martinez went off it all went to pot until Mainoo got the late, late winner. Incredible scenes.

And my latest Blackburn Rovers bad news:

Rovers were doing a last minute transfer of a MLS player. The incompetent back office hit “save” instead of “send” and missed the cutoff to file the paperwork with the league. It looks like the manager is leaving/resigning. Indian capital controls made a mess of Rovers finances. They have one of the lowest payrolls in the league and aren’t competitive. The manager has been playing almost a Liverpool style and doesn’t have the talent to avoid conceding easy goals. Under Tony Mowbray, they were compensating for this by parking the bus and running counters. Last year, Burnley played that way and had better talent than the rest of the league. It’s been a disaster in the Premier League where they have less talent than other clubs.


Liverpool was outplayed by Arsenal on the weekend. It was interesting at the half when Liverpool got an equalizer in extra time but the disastrous VVD and Alisson error to concede an easy goal put an end to that. Hopefully, it will be a three club race the rest of the way. I’d much rather see Arsenal win than Manchester City.

are Blackburn still owned by the Indian Chicken Industry family? Venkis?

100% agree. The league runs the danger of becoming Bundesliga if Man City keep winning, despite their 115 pending charges.

Yep. Venky’s. Not exactly well-liked by Rovers supporters. Attendance was down to 12,000 last match. The rumor in the local press is the former Birmingham City manager is about to be announced.
