1 win in 4, irrespective of any excuses it's just not good enough. We're in serious trouble, relegation battle ahead and we've shipped out all our championship experience.

Apart from Abesiou most of the new lads look crap. McGlloughlin cost us the game with a stupid red, Kargbo and Tavares with two of the worst performances I’ve seen in a long time at Ewood. Even then we still had chances to equalise or take a lead and messed them both up due to our pony attack. Genuinely think we are in massive trouble this season with our recruitment and lady luck deserting us most games. Hedges MotM for me.

It isnt. Very little of the blame goes to him. Mostly on Venkys, a large chunk on Coyle.

Not to worry you all but Gueye has a better return for a worst team in the same league as Gudjohnson - and by some measure

Worries really building about what is to come this season. A very poor start to the season with 4 losses in 5. We rallied a bit in the second half but the first half performance was shocking. Tavares was embarassing. Been told he is an upgrade on Travis already, a laughable suggestion. Kargbo is totally brainless, a very poor player. And Gueye, the less said about him the better. We need a few signings yet, and I am not confident based on what Ismael said. We badly need a midfielder.

Yep. Circa £8.5m from Germany.

Appreciate it’s early days, but not really been impressed with Tavares so far. Whilst I do get the red card changed things a lot, is Henriksson that bad that he couldn’t have replaced Tavares today? Or am I wide of the mark?

He looked okay, did well trapping a long ball and then trying to have a go at the defence, hope he keeps that up. Didn't do much wrong. The play in the middle of the park and the wings wasn't too bad today, it was the completely toothless nature of the final third that made sure we once again really struggled to score. We played much better today than we did against West Brom and Birmingham but quality tells and we still came away with nothing 👎

I'm sure Gudjohnson will improve the team, but he's not exactly prolific in front of goal, is he ?

Bet that atmosphere beats Ibrox hands down...safe journey home. 😉

Well said.

Or shite.

Had very little chance to shine but did have a good touch and cross. shame donkey gueye was on the floor

I've been in the same boat for a while now. We'll never turn our backs on football but it's not the beautiful game it was, in my eyes anyway. I hate the prem I really do, but ultimately that's what we all need to strive for in this league. On today's game,I think the finish by Sergeant just summed it up. Great strike and one our attackers look unlikely to be able to execute! Showed some spirit in that second half but poor finishes, poor passes and poor officiating all contributed to 0 points. Ryo looks decent but I do worry he will have nobody to cross to like when he skipped past his man. A decent striker transforms this team, Norwich were no better but ultimately go home with 3 points....

For anyone that watched the game, how did Morishita do in his limited time on the pitch? Were there at least signs showing why he was (supposedly) our number one target this window?

Not sure Cantwell could play that deep. Asking a lot of him defensively

Don’t think we played well.

It’s not just you. My enthusiasm and excitement for Rovers and football in general, is seriously waning.

Gudjonsen over ohashi (if we get him)

A lot of changes on the team sheet but some things don’t change, that is 3 goals shipped in 90+ minutes in two games.

Is it just me who's increasingly cynical of the game? You've got the PL shelling out more and more money with the big boys dominating every competition with their inexhaustible pockets. Meanwhile, most club Championship and below are in permacrisis and financially struggling. Do we really want to tough it out for the next 20 years for the privilege of being PL whipping boys for 12 months?

Pfffffttttt!

I think we are going to rue most of these signings.

Desperately short of a striker and have been for a long while now. Gueye looks like he has won a prize to pull the shirt on and although I love Yuki’s hard graft, he won’t score a lot of goals, too slow and not strong enough to be up front alone.

I couldn't fault the effort today from the players but we're just not very good and the only reason for that is the owners and their appointed clowns. 1 win in 5 matches and we haven't actually played any good teams yet. 1/4 wins in the league is relegation form. I'm not having people blaming unlucky penalties and referees, pathetic excuses. You make your own luck in football. If you have enough goes against the opposition you'll get a decision go for you sooner or later. There's not some grand conspiracy against us.
