Problem is nowadays , the manager doesn't sign the players , so gets a longer stay of execution ! It is a good question though !

Is there a word for a female snake? (Only joking Christina)

5m asking price

a day of frustration. First half, far too misplaced passes or making their wrong decision. We didn't press enough. Norwich had several chances to score and poor finishing from them yet meaning it nil nil until the penalty incident. It was a penalty and McLoughlin was rightly sent off. It does spoil the game but the rules are the rules. We still created chances or got into good areas but that final pass was poor. Second Half, we were much better, press better, got Cantwell more involved. We created 2 great chances an we should have scored both. cost us the game. Their second goal killed the game. Cantwell second half was my man of the match. Get more involved and influence the game. But Alebiosu overall the game was my man of the match. Plenty of effort from the players. Karbgo need developing, Gueye needs to learn the offside rule. The ref was very annoying second half were inconsistent decisions. Favour Norwich too much and his relucent to take actions against their time wasting Lets see what the next 48 hours happens transfer wise

Gudjohnsen fills me with dread, a poor goal record in a high performing team. Not a good sign

The only two things to cheer me up today, the Dingles and Derby both conceding converted penalties at the death.

A 15 year long transitional state!

🐍🐍🐍 It will be just about money. 🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🙄

How much of our poor form and performances is due to the massive downgrade in the squad, and how much is it ineptitude from the manager? For me it’s both but I’m not sure it what percentage split.

This exact rule has just been explained to the dingles on the radio

I thought Alebiousu was decent today, he’s very athletic and works hard, looks like he’ll be a capable championship right back in a crap side. Is he an upgrade on Brittain, not for me

One incident summed Kargbo up today for me. In the first half on our right side Norwich were going forward and Ribiero went to the ball but Chrisene was going on the overlap. Kargbo was drawn to the ball instead of going with the runner that was Chrisene (who was Kargbo's man anyway) and he got in behind. Ribiero tried to point this out but Kargbo was having none of it. It took Hyam to come over and explain to Kargbo. It's difficult to put some football intelligence into players but it can be done. Alas in Kargbo's case I think it will be a forlorn hope. He is essentially a one trick pony in my opinion.

Alebiosu? Wasn't Ohashi a Park signing?

Law 12 Section 4 states; If a defender starts holding an attacker outside the penalty area and continues holding within the penalty area, the referee must award a penalty kick

It would be peak Venky’s to get relegated in what should be a milestone year for the club

If Baradji isn't fit for a while then we should look at a domestic loan, I don't see how we can justify another permanent signing there. There should be some young PL talent available as we near the window close, there usually is. We'd have to sell a centre back before buying as well, we've got four senior already.

But chaddy loves his honesty. Which is weird as if he was honest his post match would have been saying how utterly inept we are and that several of the new signings are miles off it. That’s the honesty that was lauded last week when he chucked Trav right under the bus so surely we want the same now

I like overseas so I don't have to suffer as regularly as the rest of you. I have been here for the Bradford, Birmingham and Norwich games and I haven't seen Rovers win in years. Everytime I visit Ewood I leave with the taunts and celebrations of visiting fans ringing in my ears. Today might have been the final straw. That first half performance was a fucking disgrace and there was no coming back from it. If thats what these nomarks produce after at least 5 days on the training ground then I dospair. If that's what 5 days of coaching produces then Ismael is stealing a living. As for Kargbo, for a professional not to score in that position he should consider his future. I so admire my mates for going to Ewood week in, week out to be subjected to that shite because I'm sure as fuck that I wouldn't.

Hope I'm wrong but maybe our 150th year will be one to remember for all the wrong reasons... We bumble on.

Remember last week when people were starting to put it out there that Gestede buys were successful. Ohashi is the only one who looks like he can cope at this level

Me neither. Very cold fish.

I am already and have very serious doubts about the manager too !

How long its takes this side to transition to one that is consistently capable of winning games is going to be crucial...early days maybe but the longer we stay near the bottom of this Division the harder it becomes. Jury still out on this Manager for me,just cant warm to the bloke.

Yep, after his corner started the counter attack, he legged it back to get alongside Gray and then made no effort at all to stop the cross.

True, on reflection maybe it is best he doesn’t tackle then. First half was reminiscent of big club second goal where he ran alongside doing absolutely nothing to halt anyone’s progress
