... then we'll see who the so called leagues best fans are. I can hardly wait for the place where ancestry.com and eharmony.com are the same, to start their own 25 years of futility. It begins on the 27th!!!

@LeeJonesCTV: Riders GM Brendan Taman "I have not asked for permission to fire Chamblin. He is our coach going forward" #Riders

@HomeOfTheFans: Taman says that he and the board support Corey Chamblin going forward. He's going on with business as usual. #riders #cfl

@HomeOfTheFans: Taman says he fully expects Chamblin to be here for the year. #riders #cfl

Lawless did say that if the BOD didn't approve Taman firing Chamblin now, it means a full housecleaning will take place at the end of the season, meaning both Chamblin and Taman are gone.

Lawless says he stands behind his report into the inner thoughts and desires of Brendan Taman, even though Taman himself says the opposite himself.

 

Too bad he can't stand in front of his report so no one can see it anymore.  

@garylawless: I respect what Brendan Taman has said today. That being said, I stand behind my report. 100 per cent.

To be fair and I'm not a lawless fan but did ppl expect Taman to come out and say Chamblin is done. The riders bye week is soon. Let's see what happens then. I have a feeling gary may be right in the long run.

fwiw, chamblin shouldn't lose his job because of the injury bug.

No he should lose it because of the piss poor defence he's running.  The Riders had 0 wins and the #1 offense heading into last week.

still would have won half their games with DD at qb.

Lol what do you expect Taman to say?  I asked for permission to fire Chamblin but the board said no so I guess he stays?  Come on.  Pretty obvious what's going on here... Taman and Chamblin are both gone after the season.

This thing is, if Gary was 100% wrong, there wouldn't have been any meetings or pressers. 

 

Most likely scenario, Taman asked permission to fire Chamblin, BOD said no, Taman addresses media and says Chamblin is there for the year,.  For the Year is the key wording.

Wonder what they both make. Taman and CC have contracts through 2017. That has to be a good chunk of change. I know the Riders have cash but still.

Well, Bombers pay their GM and HC near the bottom of the CFL pay scale, but I believe Walters makes about $250k per year and O'Shea is around $200k per year.

So the combo of Taman/Chamblin will cost a minimum of $500k per year.

I think we see a 'defensive consultant' hired by labour day - maybe Benevides?

A vote of confidence means Chamblin is as good as gone.

Another loss & things will be in flux again. Isn't what's happening with the Riders remind you of what went on here in 2013? Just a total **** show. And back  then, I remember fans here & everywhere else were pointing to the Riders as the model publicly owned franchise & how we needed to model the Bomber organization after them.

I would much rather watch the 2015 Roughriders than the 2013 Bombers.

Feels to me like they've written off this season and would rather just do a wholesale change in the off season...

Hey guess what? You will be,lucky you

Me too. It's fun to watch the Riders lose.

Chamblin on the post game show had already said the grey cup is already lost

Chamblin on the post game show had already said the grey cup is already lost

Now he should come clean and tell them there next 12 games are lost as well.

I guess they gotta go 12-0 now to meet Taman's prediction... it's not over yet!

 

Here they come...
