Ince had stated it was "flattering" to be linked with jobs elsewhere when he spoke at his press conference on Friday.

The former MK Dons boss is a former England team-mate of Dennis Wise, Newcastle's executive director of football, who set him on the road to management by giving him a coaching job during his days as Swindon manager.

But Ince clarified his position on the Newcastle link, and insists he is "very happy" with his current job.

"As I said at our pre-match press conference earlier today, I cannot control media speculation and nor do I normally choose to comment upon it.

"However, I feel I owe it to the club, the players and the supporters to say that I am very happy at Ewood Park.

"I am only a few weeks into the role and I am thoroughly enjoying the experience. My only focus is Rovers and getting on with the job."
