Well Morihishita certainly has a wicked shot on him

Good hit there none the less.

Morishita hits the bar

I’ve seen him pass when looking and it’s not much better

I fully expect no feathers ruffled but to paraphrase: ”I look at the squad today and I think it’s strong, even with Sean suspended… there’s been a lot of noise about the Championship experience in the squad, but all those players with championship experience that left, at one time they didn’t have any championship experience.” Why spin a very obvious lie? Only thing I can think of is that Venky’s (or one of their underlings) watch the games via a Rovers TV feed and this is some kind of cynical targeted propaganda system. Bit tinfoil hat, I’ll admit, but he’s such a dickhead otherwise, it wouldn’t surprise me.

Just about to say the same thing. We were supposed to be adding pace and power. If anything we look more lightweight and slower than 12 months ago. Watford certainly look quicker all over the pitch.

Straight away I'm thinking "I hope Morishita is a tidy, clever player because he's not quick".

Ryoya looks knackered.....

I'd argue that's a pen if that was for us...

So is that not a dive and a booking for simulation on that penalty appeal?

Someone needs to tell Tavares to stop passing without looking.

You're listening to the in-house broadcast team. They're never going to say anything controversial. Just be glad it's not an ex-player on commentary like most teams do. They're invariably shite.

Opposite Day: Ismael in the Vicarage Rd away dugout, Watford won’t sack the manager after a loss.

3rd umpire decision to give Livingstone was a utter pathetic decision. We did conceded 20 to 25 more runs than we should have done

Strange times in terms of the kits.

Warren Lucy is such an apologist for his paymasters, it’s embarrassing

somebody needs to tell Pears he'll go bald wearing a cap all the time.

You must understand Henriksson will need both hands fully functional to do the required amount of shirt pulling

Steady on now. A joke can go too far.

Henriksen is out with an hand injury ? Shaun Edwards played 70 odd minutes of a Rugby League Cup Final with a fractured cheek none !

Did they travel down on the day ?

Almost want him to come on to see if he keeps the cap on or not

The club engineered the Hyam, Brittain and Travis situations in the same way they have engineered the Tronstad one - they made no serious efforts to keep any of them. Firstly they stubbornly refused to even discuss new terms when the players were excelling last season, even when Eustace threatened and eventually did walk out over it, and then when they did get around to 'discussing' new terms (which is a stretch, I suspect there was very little negotiation or discussion) it is clear they were offering appalling terms to such players to the extent I've seen moves to Wrexham and Derby described as 'life changing'. Anyone associated with Blackburn Rovers accepting this should be ashamed of themselves. So they certainly aren't going to get a shred of credit or acceptance on my part that having deliberately allowed the contract situation to develop that they then hurriedly cash in close to deadline day to eke out a few million rather than nothing. Again, if they had dealt with the contracts appropriately and interest had materialised we could have commanded a far better fee or simply rejected it with no serious consequence.

Three reasonable results so far.

Wharton and Carter….. it’ll need a miracle to get anything with those 2 at the back.
