These things happen in football. JE had a clause in his contract, a club met it and he wanted to go so best for all parties that he did. Same as when a player wants out, get the right price and get it done. 14 massive games left.
Blackburn Rovers have announced that head coach John Eustace has left the club. Eustace will take over as Derby County's head coach. He'll take coaching staff Matt Gardiner and Keith Downing with him Pride Park. #rovers I #brfc I #bbcfootball I #bbcefl

Have to say I feel hugely for the players and remaining staff at #rovers. None of the last few days is their doing. Letโs hope they can rise to the challenge against a very decent team.

Unless there are any late hiccups, John Eustace should be announced at Derby later. I expect Damien Johnson, David Lowe, Mike Sheron, Paul Butler & Ben Benson to look after first team matters tonight for #rovers. Good luck to them.

@JohnKeigher1 I think so, John. I wouldn't have said it otherwise. If you don't agree, that's absolutely fine.
