Giraffidae 0 Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 taken from sky sports: Sam ordered to win with style Rovers' new owners expect to be entertained Sam Allardyce has been informed by Blackburn's new owners that he is expected to entertain from now on. Rovers were acquired by the Rao family last week, with a £46million takeover seeing them take the reins at Ewood Park. The Indian consortium, who run poultry firm Venky's, have ambitious plans for the club and hope to make their mark as soon as possible. They intend to have Blackburn competing in the upper reaches of the Premier League before too long and are keen to see an instant return on their investment. It will, however, not be enough to just pick up points on a regular basis, with it important that style is added to the substance. Vital Venky's company chairwoman Anuradha Desai has made that clear to Allardyce, with Rovers now working to a new remit. "We should go up in the rankings but playing well is not just about winning. The way we play is vital," she said. "I am going to speak to the manager soon and tell him the fans' opinions are very important." While Allardyce will not welcome the interference in his tactical decisions, he will be pleased to hear that money will be made available in January. Desai has revealed that Venky's will be backing their manager when the transfer window re-opens, giving Rovers the opportunity to bolster their ranks ahead of a charge up the standings in the second half of the season. She said: "New players will be arriving. Money will be available. We are not a selling club now." I suppose he can always leave and take over the Barca job though.

manc-mag 1 Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 The image of some glorified chicken farmer telling Fat Sam how she expects football to be played is just too delicious. I hope they're proper interfering Charlies this lot and drive the bluetoothed egotist up the fucking wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alex Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 (edited) Like a few people said Blackburn played some decent stuff up here at times, but it's the constant spoiling that ruins the game as a spectacle.

It was hardly Brazil 1970 Alex a few decent moves doesn't impress me. All his teams are turgid direct and workmanlike. In his entire reign we produced one really good performance, a 3-1 win against the yids and we always play well against them. I remember someone telling me he used to fine players who shoot from over 20 yards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said I agreed, grudgingly in all honesty, with people who said they played some decent stuff at times. I hate the fat chipmunk but they weren't all long ball by any means. They were awful in terms of their constant cheating though, like I said. Edited November 25, 2010 by alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll admit that I was for his appointment and hoped he would have done well, obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
