Just how did Steve McClaren wriggle into pole position for the Blackburn job?

This season has not been kind to Steve McClaren, he torched England’s European Championship campaign, cringed at various times beneath a brolly or alone in the toilet, and has been ripped apart with ego-tearing glee by the press. Things are picking up though…
Not only has McClaren somehow managed to secure a gig as a TV pundit for the Euro Championships - which is as crazy an appointment as Tony Blair becoming Middle East peace envoy - but he is now in the running for the Blackburn job. In fact, when McClaren showed up with his balding ginger pate and his ridiculously bleached tombstones, he pulled out all the stops and actually managed to impress as an interviewee according to The Sun.
An unnamed source (Mr B.Ollox perhaps?) is reported to have said:
“Steve pulled out all the stops when he met with Rovers and they were all very impressed.
“He doesn’t want to be too over-confident but he thinks it went very well.” (The Sun)
Whoa there! Would Blackburn fans really want Steve McClaren stinking it up at Ewood Park?

I agree.. no chance of McClaren being our next manager.. BILIC or LAUDRUP will do nicely.!!

Where on earth did you get this story from? You “journalists” are just making it up as you go along. Lets face it you haven’t got a clue. This is lazy journalism. You’ve read The Sun (another great example of inaccurate stories) and written something lacking in any facts what-so-ever vaguely implying that you know what you’re talking about.

Poor old Blackburn…

Blog Head have you lost your small insignificant brain. Mclaren will never get the job i think i’d rather have you as our manager and YOU clearly know NOTHING about football.

McLarens going to be your next manager, so shut up

FANTASTIC! This is the best news I have heard all week, I prayed for McLaren to be made the next manager of Rovers to make my dreams come true (Blue Nose & Anonymous know what I am talking about)
Lets hope it’s not just idiotic journalism again.
Come on Steve, get the brolly up, sell up, put up…… a Tesco!
