He did play for the U21s in 3 games over the past month before being called up for England U18 https://www.playmakerstats.com/player/igor-tyjon/1254652/results?epoca_id=155 Games T 78 R R B R L 2025/10/03 PL2 L Blackburn Rovers (A) Stoke City 3-1 82 8 82' - - - - 6.8 D 2025/09/29 PL2 L Blackburn Rovers (A) Leicester City 3-3 90 - - - x2 - 9.1 L 2025/09/16 NLC GS Blackburn Rovers U21 (A) Rochdale 3-2 80 8 80' R - - - -

Strange how he no longer features for the senior side nor the academy sides

Lets hope Cantwell isnt injured as otherwise we really are in trouble.

Thanks. Sounds like a stirring comeback 😃.

Keep sharp - keep match ready, it's as simple as that.

Why did they play them?

Plus obviously any internationals for either side wouldn't be playing.

One for Jan, William Osula Newcastle would be a really excellent loan deal.

This has pretty much been his tenure in a nutshell. To be fair, he was given a brief to play attacking football after the usual Swedish approach of hard teamwork and defense had grown very stale, and we've produced a lot of attacking talent in the last few years while there's been a dearth of defenders and defensive midfielders. Still, the result of JDT's tactics have been that those not very good defenders have been badly exposed without the support of the players who are roving forward.

Was 3-1 Burnley at HT. Walker didn't play for them and Cantwell didn't play for us - that's all I've got.

I do not think that it is the sales that people get upset about, its that with proper contract management, most sales are either completely avoidable, or we would be able to ask for much higher fees, which could then (in theory at least) lead to us having more to invest on improving the squad. The frustration comes from trying to save a few pennies in the here and now by not attempting to renew contracts until the last minute, or offering derisory wages (when compared to our rivals)

Fair enough. I just find it annoying when, of everything there is to be angry about, people are upset at the prospect of a player being sold, especially someone we've brought in from an obscure league mainly to make a profit on him in the future!

Igor Tyjon made an instant impact off the bench as England Under-18s battled back from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 with France’s Under-18 Apologies for the shouty bold text, I just copied and pasted from the story on Rovers site

Times have changed. There were so many great suggestions put to the club which they could have followed up to make sure that there were some actual celebrations in addition to simply labelling a league match as 'The anniversary game'. You may have been involved in the 150th committee yourself ? WATR started making suggestions over 2 years ago. Relations between the club and the fans is at an all time low. The 150th anniversary presented an opportunity for the club to rebuild some bridges and show some interest in the fans and the community. The obvious disrespect that they continue to show for the fans is epitomised by the indifference with which they have approached our 150th year.

I am trying to raise issues and hopefully get a few things sorted. A real shame, Women's players on this years edition of Fifa (EAFC26) are highly sought after on the online modes of the game. a promotion to the WSL would've Absolutely skyrocketed the reputation of the women's side. To say we shot ourselves in the foot is a real understatement, it is the exact same scenario as when the men's side got relegated. 1 more season in the prem and we would've had the new TV deal to contend with enhancing budgets across the board... hindsight is wonderful!

That's good to know. I'm not sure if the club commissions works like that or the community does. @only2garners could this also be pursued at the next FF

I still consider this a meaningless stat.

Steve Waggott had planned to have 3 gable ends painted. They were also going to follow up with the WATR suggestion of a Blue Plaque on the site of Rovers formation; we even provided evidence that the shop owner was keen for this to happen.

That costs money,imagination and planning...all lacking down Ewood way these days.

To be fair he has to fit all family engagements into international breaks as he certainly wouldn’t be missing QPR at home for one.

Your just left feeling what's the point anymore.

So what game did you go to then?

From what reliable source?.

How many clubs have had their ownership deliberately relegate them out of the Premier League and then repeatedly & deliberately sabotage any chances of them ever getting back there? I can only think of 1 example.
