Rudy Gestede | Venkys' Ownership of Blackburn, Recruitment Plans and Rebuilding Fan Trust

Current Blackburn Rovers head of football operations Rudy Gestede is our next special guest on the latest episode of No Tippy Tappy Football.

Rudy Gestede sits down alongside Sam Allardyce and Natalie Pike to discuss all things Blackburn from his appointment as head of football operations to what are the future aims for the club.

Rudy and Sam talk about the reason why John Eustace shocked everyone with his decision to swap a play-off based Blackburn Rovers for relegation fighting Derby County and did Rudy's relationship with John play a factor?

The two then discuss the recent appointment of Valerien Ismael, his adaptability as a head coach and if there was any truth in the rumours linking Wayne Rooney with the club.

They then both chat in depth about Venky's tenure as owners of Blackburn Rovers, Rudy's relationship with the owners and if they have given any indication on their future at all.

The duo then discuss where the money from player sales has gone and why only a small amount has been reinvested back into the playing squad, as well as the situation surrounding a number of Blackburn players out of contract in the summer and what the Summer transfer window is going to look like.

Finally they end the podcast with what the long term aims are for the football club as well as the immediate aims for next season.
