Do you need any help ?

White Rose of Yorkshire making yet another appearance though

Now corrected online how embarrassing

I think I speak on behalf of everyone when I say. "Oh for fucksake." I won't be down on Tuesday I'm building a time machine in the shed.

Happy Diwali?....aint no Happiness at Ewood Park.That Football Club you purport to own btw. 😠

No Maltese cross! Poor effort. Don’t you know a random website once said it was our badge briefly so is now the basis of all our AI generated comms (and will be on the anniversary shirt, of course).

Its about us putting the ball into the back of the net Ismael FFS!

Ok...We are shit.... I feel a banner coming on (apologies to Zola) Rudi Gestede, J'Accuse!!

A shout out to the owners of the club from the club and they’ve managed to get the club’s name wrong.

Chat GPT in 2 seconds My 'effort'

With Branagan ,Keeley, Faz and Kendall in the team ,not many of our present players would fancy it !

Ismael's pre match comments

It does look like AI slop. The bar is so low at this club. I don't know whether we outsource this stuff to another firm or whether it's done in-house but it has been shite for a while, embarrassing. This isn't an overreaction because this isn't a one-off. Everything we do with branding, comms, marketing is tone-deaf rubbish. Edit- it should go without saying as well that this is nothing to do with it being Diwali, I would say the same if it said Eid, Easter, Xmas, whatever. It's just amateurish.

This is so emblematic of the continuing “will this do..?” culture at Ewood..🤦‍♂️

Nostalgia at its finest:

I wouldn't be surprised if Ismael put Ohashi in goal, hes good at playing players out of position.

We need Gueye and Ohashi, putting the ball in the net, to get their confidence back.

Happy Diwali from everyone at 'Blackburn Football Club' Chat GPT again?

Enough ifs, maybes, or could have beens, we need to start winning, starting tomorrow night.

Poor is an understatement.

Great news if true. I guess we go the same as the XI that played well for an hour. There really are not many other options anywhere on the pitch. What happens when we start having half a dozen players out at a time in November/December I do not know?

I thought there were signs of dissent in the ranks towards the end of Tomasson's reign as there were with Souness. Those two you mention got the odd result to quell any immediate revolt but there did seem to be some grumbling from the players. Your point about not being good enough is absolutely correct but sometimes a good manager can squeeze some more out of average players. I honestly can't see Ismael as one of those types.

I only looked at the Championship seasons. I’ve just checked and the year they got us relegated from the PL we were doing even worse (5 points).

At least that will stop him doing something weird like Montgomery at centre back. Cantwell is now "a couple of weeks" and otherwise just constant bleating on again about how unlucky weve been and how great weve been playing.

It's quite strange with Rovers, but I can't really remember our players absolutely downing tools during any managerial reign. Even Kean for example - over Christmas 2011 the pressure was mounting, the fans were in uproar, the LET had even said his time was up, and then they drew at Anfield and won at Old Trafford within the space of a few days! During the early days of protests that season, they beat Arsenal and Swansea at home to relieve the pressure. Coyle was a bit the same. Fans could see that over the course of a season we'd go down, but they'd chuck in occasional wins or draws. Beating Brentford and Newcastle in the space of a week in November, two wins on the spin in September as well. This feels like a similar kind of season. We'll have periods of winning and drawing a couple to take the pressure off the manager and the board, we won't play badly enough for widescale fan revolt or disenchantment, but ultimately results over the season might not be enough. Also, such was the scale of the overhaul this summer, a lot of these players are Ismael's signings, meaning we probably won't see any form of mutiny. It might just come down to the simple fact that the squad is poor.
