Danny Mills is coming across very poorly. I did enjoy Pearce's reply in the first place
"I know Danny very well, I worked with him at Manchester City, I put Micah Richards in the team in front of him. "

Mills was a cunt as a player and now is continuing that in his media work and his work with the FA

Blackburn deep in it.

: “When Venky’s bought the club the shareholder funds were a healthy and positive £25.7 million.

“Since November 2010, the actual book value of the club went from plus £25.7 million to minus £57.2 million - an £82.9 million drop in shareholder value.

“In real terms, Venky’s bought Blackburn Rovers for £20 million, a 20% discount on the shareholder value at the time of sale.

“At that same discount, they’d have to pay a new owner £68.6 million just to take it off their hands!

“Basically, what all this means is that as a saleable object the club is completely worthless.”

Cellino loses his appeal against his ban. (for what its worth really since he can come back in March anyway)

In effect, Cellino can return as owner in the second week of April.

He does have other tax cases pending, not sure when they are due. Probably about 2034 knowing the Italian legal system.

This is all true. He had a point about Pearce though.

Are these professional people, Pearce required those silly remarks like he needs a hole in the head. I guess if Stuart entered the same room Danny would exit quickly.

Of course. It was unprofessional but then Danny Mills has never been one to be professional. He's a cunt. Pearce is a shocking manager though, trading solely on his reputation as a player. For some reason I have an irrational dislike of him as a manager!

I'm far more uneasy that the words of Danny Mills are given merit by the BBC and before that by people within the football association. Obnoxious individual.

What did they say? Must've completely missed what you guys are referring to...

Mills called Pearce out as a shit manager who stops having any positive impact once the initial 10 game honeymoon period is over and no-one listens to him.

Pearce basically replied that Mills was bitter because he dropped him from the City team for an untried kid in Micah Richards.

I don't really see a problem with either statement. Pearce is a terrible manager, if Mills is asked for his opinion then I'd rather him give it than some kind of bland platitude. We had that nonsense with ex-team mates of Saunders sticking up for him when he was here out of blind loyalty when everyone could see that the man was awful on every single level.

Tranmere owners Mark and Nicola Palios look to attract fans priced out of Premier League to Prenton Park

“We want those extra fans to come back here and we have to make it attractive to them.

“We are looking at season-ticket initiatives and try to keep our prices extremely competitive for next season.”
