Because it wasn't. Cantwell was looking for it and chucked himself to the ground.

Stonewall penalty for Rovers

We are Blackburn Rovers. We don't get penalties.

Left 5 minutes early, not a chance we were scoring. I'm really worried about our attacking options, absolutely no quality at all, and our only threatening player struggle to have any end product and runs out of steam after 10 minutes. Montgomery was awful which is sad to see, way out his depth. Only positive for me was Travares...He looks head n shoulders above anyone tonight and was surprisingly quick...Looks like he's taken knock and Travis looks for certain to be off...Who the hell do we have in the middle for Saturday? Very worrying times.

Nonsense. It was almost straight at him!

Their keeper been superb

They are winning though

Abysmal showing today. Not much hope for the immediate future. No joy with the old club now.

Dirty bastards are Bradford

Yea ohashi ain’t a number 9 though, we really need to invest in a focal striker up top and gueye ain’t it

Tbf Tyjon looked better than Cantwell...

Fixed it for you 😉 The remit is not to improve, just to cut costs

Great save that. Feeble half in all reality. The academy kids aren't good enough.

Gordon Banks save from Pele there - unbelievable! Buckley playing to not get bought by anyone. Cantwell playing 25 yards further back than did Tyjon

What the fuck have we been doing all pre-season?? We look MILES off it - and that against a team who were in League 2 last season. Abysmal this.

Better from Kargbo. Poor from Ohashi. Shouldn't have given the keeper a chance. That's why (imo) he won't score more than 10 this season.

4000 Bradford fans

How did Ohashi didn't score ??

That was our shot.

That is an unbelievable save, had to be 2-2

9,885 today. Bless them…

Rudy thinks this bunch of 'midfielders' are better than Buckley and JRC. An utter clown. Downgrading at a rapid rate.

He did, I agree but he had a far superior squad of players, than we do now. This team is bottom of the league fodder not just relegation!

I made two predictions on this game; Rovers win, 5-1; We don’t score in a league game the rest of August. I think #2 has an excellent chance of coming true.

Guys I'm sorry but if we don't sign at least three quality players who are ready to hit the ground running in this league we ar nailed on for relegation. This reminds me of the Owen Coyle season FFS. And anyone that says that's an overreaction should watch tonights match.
