I reckon Blackburn might be perceived to have splashed out on Rhodes in an effort to buy their way back into the Prem., thus going against the ethos of fair play. The fact that the running of the club is a complete fowl-up is of secondary importance in the grand scheme of things ???
The new improved Sky deal kicks in next season, with chairmen having half an eye on that I should imagine. Don't know if TB suffers with nerves, but probably not looking at the way he plays poker, and must be a bit keen to be knocking on the Premiership door sooner rather than later :smile:
