Suggestions earlier today were that global advisor Shebby Singh and managing director Derek Shaw were at odds on who should be the new man. Shaw, it was reported, wanted Ian Holloway, but Singh favoured former Blackburn defender Berg.
Singh has won; Berg has become the new manager and will be unveiled tomorrow morning.
It's an interesting choice because just a few months ago, Berg had some strong words for the Indian owners of the club just down the M65 and said he'd be reluctant to work for them.
"To work for a Premier League club would be fun, and even a Championship club as well. However, to work as a manager for a club you need the right owners and to take over as a manager in a club (Blackburn) with owners like that is madness.
"There are no real managers with credibility who would accept a job like that. You might end up shooting yourself in the foot. You might end up being there a few months with nothing really working and being unable to do what you want.
"The owner situation needs resolving and I hope that Jack Walkers' family, as they still have some money, will buy the club back and start running it again under the same principles as Jack Walker did when he was alive."
It looks like a match made in heaven.
