    He should be able to buy a nice place - even in London - with the payoff he'll get from that.

    I was looking at house prices in Dundee last week.

    Don't ask.


    He'll get a ****ing castle for the price he'd pay for a London semi up there.

    Glamis might be on the market soon, I hear.


    Could be worth a cheeky bid Gary.

    Championship side Blackburn Rovers have sacked manager Gary Bowyer with the club 16th in the table.

    The 44-year-old had two spells as caretaker manager while reserve-team boss at Ewood Park, before being appointed full-time in May 2013.

    Assistant boss Terry McPhillips, and coaches Craig Short, Tony Grant and John Keeley have also left the club.

    Bowyer's exit follows a 1-1 draw with Brentford on Saturday and they have only won three games this season.

    He finished eighth in his first full season in charge, followed by ninth in 2014-15, but leaves with the Rovers just four points above the relegation places.

    Recent Blackburn managers
    2008 -
    Paul Ince

    2012 - Henning Berg

    2008-10 - Sam Allardyce

    2013 - Michael Appleton

    2010-12 - Steve Kean

    2013-15 - Gary Bowyer

    "The owners felt that following a disappointing start to the season, they have to act in order to give the club the best chance of success in the remainder of the campaign," said a club statement.

    "The owners wish to place on record their sincere gratitude for the hard work and determination Gary has given the club, both in his capacity as manager and previously as Under-21 coach and within the academy, in particular during the difficult period following relegation from the Premier League."

    Bowyer had been unable to buy players since December 2014 because Rovers breached the Football League's financial fair play rules.

    Blackburn, who are owned by Indian poultry firm Venky's, have said the search for a new manager will begin immediately, but they do not have another game until 21 November because of the international break.

    Looks like they might have had Paul Lambert lined up before the sacking.

    Not Bruce? He seems to be amongst the favourites for every Championship job these days.
    At least Gary Bowyer isn't black so no outcry of discrimination this time ;)

    Bruce is probably the favourite for this job, the Fulham job, the England job after France 2016 and the Moroccan Olympic team's job.

    But it's obvious. He was sacked because he was white.

    There's still plenty of crooks aiming for that job.

    Gary Bowyer has been harshly treated by this sacking IMO, with the cards he has been dealt he has done on the whole a very good job.

    Why ? What do the chicken owners expect ? Like Fulham they are doing all they can with what they have.

    Ex.Watford manager Slavisa Jokanovic has also been mentioned for BR. Then again Fulham and Qpr are also looking.

    It seems like Lambert hasn't actually agreed a deal with Blackburn yet, he held talks with QPR today.
