I wish him well. It's certainly a complete contrast to what he did do.

Fair play to him.

AGL opened an office in Lytham last year, which caused quite a stir, the story revolves round Debbie Dowie, Ian’s wife.

To be fair to him Steve, he does get a lot of Blackburn games, so credit to him for sticking at it this long.

I was talking to Robbie Simpson (Dowie signed him at Coventry) a couple of days ago, and he said he was very intelligent, and above all else a genuinely lovely man. Good luck to him.

Good luck to him. I’ve passed the time of day with him a couple of times at the back of the alongside when he had been commentating on our game. A really nice man. I wish him every success.

Good, for us mere mortals it should be, for Sid the top Sha66er I'd expect far more of an exciting card!

The 2021 sha88ing card is different to the 2021 strange things card.

I also suspect the sha88ing card is staying in the drawer until later in the year :roll:

The irony on this thread is the number on the card that look a bit like Iain Dowie...
