Grass and roots. Now that's so very appropriate.

Thought this would start up soon. Wrote this on Saturday after the game:- Said at the start of the season that we will finish in bottom third despite a worse team and even worse (!) hierarchy. Sadly, if that is the case RG et al will perceive the new 'alignment' as a project in motion and justified. Plus some commentators on here will be at it too -transition, bedding in, kick on next season - we all know the playbook.

TBF Shearer throws in comment every now and again.

Press, politicians, bishops all had a go when the Raos first came and started the damage. Defeaning silence from the owners. Perhaps, there may be a new round of such voices. I keep getting an image in my head of The Black Knight as the last fan going to Rovers shouts "just support the team" only to find that there is no team on the pitch. 🙂

But not the owners point

Like I said do your own research pal No respect and thoughts for others. Exactly what I thought. Dont complain when you get a criminal record and banning orders for Breaking the law. That sort of stuff isn't right. Just dont attend the games Really?.

‘Fan’ doing a lot of heavy lifting there.

They’re covered by the ‘I don’t particularly care but I’ll have free hospitality though’ agreement.

That'll be a no then. What about them? How are they different situations? Because of the location of the areas, maybe we need to be even more extreme than going on the pitch & stopping games then. Garner, Shearer, Atkins, Friedel & Dalglish will have no idea how bad things are under Venky's.

I mentioned Pickering as lcb previously but was surprised when I realised he was smaller than I imagined compared to Ribeiro. The best option at the moment for that position is still Pratt and I would imagine he'll be back in on Saturday, maybe having just been given a rest by Ismael at the weekend. The problem at wing backs is going to be the main issue for the next few weeks. Presume Hedges will be back, and I imagine TGH will play rwb, if that's the formation we go with. Hopefully Tronstad will be up to speed and I think it's time for Baradji to start alongside him. Admittedly not seen a whole lot of him, but what I have seen I like.

Fans Comment from the LET: "I think most of us understand we are in transition and that the January window will be a part of that process. We are in for a scrap, but I am confident we will stay up, be in better shape next season and that Val is the correct man for the job. Keep the faith true blues. Rome wasn’t built in a day" 😵

Do your research KidderStreetNoise? All available on a Google search Look forward to seeing you run on the pitch during Millwall game. No respect for other opinions. What about Disabled supporters or elderly ones. Very different situations Kidders plus the owners were here and in this country. Are Venkys? So Rovers legends like Garner, Shearer, Atkins, Friedel, Dunn, King Kenny are all covered by NDA?

‘Have Blackburn still got those owners? Not like Jack Walker’s day. Ah well’ …will be the only thought most ex-players ever give it (and even that’s if prompted).

Let's be honest they've all moved on 30 years ago we won the prem. They are but relegated (no pun intended) to he history books now and that's all they are. They have no reason to defend us or get involved with it all this far on

At a functioning club that care about results this is a modern day irritant but fine, accept it. What is our strategy ? Who at the club is qualified to set that direction? From what I can tell its sell, buy cheap and hope and lose football matches. Id love our philosophy to be, to win games by any means with best XI available to us with a flexible tactical approach, depending on opposition, but perhaps im just old fashioned.

If he keeps picking De Neve, we'll continue to struggle on that side, as De Neve is so poor at football. I almost feel bad for De Neve himself tbh, it's not his fault he keeps being selected.

Its rinse and repeat folks..and then we start all over again! Utterly shit Manager though.

I've always felt pickering best position is as a left cb. Solid positionally and good technically using the ball well. He's not the worst option left wing back for the last 15 to see out a game. Defensively this would make sense. Obviously his face or his wage doesn't fit with the management / idiots in charge.

Val's view at the start of September was the squad we have now is better than the one we had last season. Fast forward 3 months and we need cover for injuries (which everyone bar the club knew we'd need) and better quality in most areas (again something most of us saw). Cannot warm to him at all. You can be arrogant if you perform, but it's been an abject failure so far Val.

Most likely, they will will sack him early January before any business is done, cash in on a any saleable asset, then appoint another stooge at end of January that has no time to identify or buy anyone. The club will add some cheap squad fillers that neither Ismael or and new manager would want, the new manager will was lyrical about the academy adding strentgh to the squad, and the hamster wheel keeps going round.

Were they protesting? More pissed off about a game being called off than the running of the football club? How did it challenge Reading & Blackpool's owners? NDA's

After the team selection last Saturday he’s skating on very thin ice as far as I’m concerned.

Feels like he is finally getting pissed off with Pasha and Rudy and rightly so.

Says a lot that we signed was it 10 players in the summer, Gestede crowed as to how our squad was better, we have 24 registered. And yet the squad is in need of totally gutting. Wont happen, obviously. If we was going to back any manager in January, surely we would get a competent one in first. But we wont back anyone.
