Terrifying the amount of time's that 'last man' has been cited in these discussions

On certain players, Rev’s dug in deeper than an Alabama tic 😂

You would but others on here? 😉 Nice to see we finally got round to DOGSO rather than 'last man' which is mentioned nowhere in the rules. (I knew the answer to my question Kidder.) 😉 Nice to see Miller get away with a clear yellow early on.

I think we were more hard done to by by the decision not to award a second corner right at the end than by the red that should or shouldnt have been given, but either way you're right. We have to defend the situation at the end properly and the fact we failed to do so is 100% on us. Anything else is just excuse making as Wheelton has said.

He has been named in the 55 man squad. This will be whittled down to 28 in the next few days.

https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2025/december/03/ryan-secures-super-eagles-selection/ A final squad of 28 players will be selected in the coming days just the preliminary squad, not yet guaranteed he goes... but he most likely will as they are missing a couple of right backs with injury

It must be the only way they get it past their finance people and VH group non family board members. promising jam tomorrow. However to sustain us properly at this level you'll need to add another 100 million to that and then it won't look so clever unless we ended up in the Prem for 5 years. That will NEVER happen so at some point there surely must be a tipping point to the financing if we aren't already there.

That is abysmal considering The last 90+ minute winner in front of fans was November 2019, against Sheffield Wednesday at Ewood. our form suggests that we will concede another in the 90+ min against Sheffield Wednesday

Rovers FA Youth Cup match against Southampton has been confirmed for Friday 12th December. It's free for season ticket holders. From the matches I have seen the under 18's are really good to watch.

I remember a lot saying "Why didn't we sign Berkovic? Who is this Tugay chap?" 😆

Rovers released it mate

I was passing an opinion on Miller not attempting to be unpleasant towards you. He must have been responsible for at least half a dozen goals so far this season. Don't think I've ever said Tronstad is "hopeless" pretty ordinary is more apt but either way my views on him are completely irrelevant to my views on Miller. Apologies if you've taken umbrage at anything I've posted, it's a message board at the end of the day and I've merely posted my opinion, Im not attempting to upset anyone. I can't recall you taking particular exception to anything anyone else posted so if you don't like the stuff I post for some whatever reason Id imagine the option is there to put me on ignore.

Yeah but it’s bloody obvious he was getting there first

That's not the laws of the game

Doesn’t matter about the distance to goal or the ball. He’s last man end of.

It IS denying an obvious goalscoring opportunity. Which is clearly was. Not an obvious goal. You can't interpret rules differently based on a players ability and what they might do next attacker or defender in the phase of play that was denied. If he's in the box it's a penalty and arguably a yellow card if he tried to play the ball. Outside the box the rules are clear that this is a red card. It's possibly the worst decision I've ever seen at Ewood. As I say I'm certain it was club bias, I'm confident Pratt, McLoughlin or Miller walk if the roles are reversed.

Pretty sure it's 16 😕

I am surprised that anyone thinks it should have been anything other than a red. But it didnt cost us the game, thats the key. We held a 1 nil lead going into injury time, again. We might have not had that lead in a totally different game against 10, we might have had a stronger lead, we will never know. The game was thrown away by us, not the referee.

He was announced in their 55 man provisional squad yesterday, have they formalised the final squad already?

no,it`s a pre requisite in the commercial and financial departments,the manager and coaches just have to bend over and take it,if they want a job

If they did show that, then it shows how data can be misleading or at least misinterpreted. What would they stand out at?

Is there a deterrent for being useless at Blackburn Rovers?

Announced. Called up to Nigeria. First game is Tuesday 23rd December V Tanzania.

"Truly top level" De Neve - Not Championship standard Taveres - Not Championship standard, one of the worst Centre mids we've had for sometime Henriksson - Not Championship standard Lewis Miller - Ok but probably the worst passer of a ball i've ever seen Gudjohnsen - Right place, right time (great knack for a striker), all round game is abysmal Baradji - Unknown really but doesn't look anything particularly special from his game time so far Morishita - Good footballer, shows flashes, really struggles with the physicality of the Championship Alebiosu - Good McLoughlin - Average TGH - Poor mans Trav, average at best 🤷‍♂️

imo the ref was caught daydreaming and did`nt see the incident,hence he panicked and guessed,he also missed a blatant bodycheck on yuki,which should have been a penalty,if the refereeing adjudicator has even bothered to evaluate him,then he should be given a warning for a terrible performance,which is basically the problem with officiating in this country,you can get away with being useless because there is no deterent
