Rovers boss says win silences doubters
Blackburn Rovers boss Paul Ince has stated he has not been ruffled by pre-season attempts to unsettle his inherited squad.
Even before a ball was kicked in the new Premier League season, Ince was reportedly battling to repair a dressing room split and under pressure to sell his best players.
However, Ince believes Rovers' remarkable last-gasp 3-2 success over Everton at Goodison Park on the opening day of the new season proves his team are unified.
"People have been trying to upset what we are trying to achieve at Blackburn," said Ince. "But that has been dispelled by this result.
"It hasn't upset me, nothing upsets me. Things annoy me but don't upset me. Just the way it tried to unsettle what I was trying to achieve.
"And for someone facing his first job in the Premier League, it was wrong, attempts were made to upset things before things had even started.
"The season had not even started and things were being said that were bang out of order."
