  1. Past hour
  2. They were just suggested by fans in the LT. Not linked.
  3. What I and many others have said for years. If you want to talk about "natural levels", this is it. Just out of curiosity, is there one that shows where we were pre venkys? Also, good to see the dingles at the bottom of the table, their natural level.
  4. Today
  5. That room is s total time warp!!
  6. 1928 FA Cup Final - The last time we won the best domestic cup competition in the world.
  7. He completed full 90 minutes in the final group stage match about 3 weeks ago.
  8. Should of told them before they sign, you aren't allowed to touch anyone, look at anyone or breathe on any9ne in the Championship. "Oh why is that?" They'll go down like they've been shot, you'll get a Red card and they'll get a penalty.
  9. Seen the game now. Biggest difference between the sides apart from individual quality? The answer would be: intensity. We looked miles off it and could've easily conceded more than three to be honest. Toth (6) - pulled off a nice save from Egeli at the start of game. Should've done better for the second goal. Played sweeper keeper in second half and made some good interceptions. Atcheson (6) - tough to criticise the young lad as he's been thrown into a team who's struggling. Looks a promising talent and is quite comfortable on the ball. McLoughlin (5) - has been a disappointment all season. Doesn't possess leadership qualities needed to organise a young central defence. Cashin (0) - an absolute joke of a footballer. Reminds me a bit of JRC at times; same type of boots, lacks game intelligence and overall just poor positioning and movement. Great finish for the own goal; you can see on the replay that he checks behind his back twice before ball is played into the box and despite seeing De Neve being level with the opponent, he still doesn't trust him enough to let the ball run across goal. We'll quickly become relegated if he has a clause in his contract regarding playing time. De Neve (2) - has a bit of pace but that's it. Positional awareness for the third goal is a joke as well. TGH (3) - looked lost playing at right wing back. Tronstad (5) - best performer of the midfield three but struggled with the intensity of the game. Baradji (4) - poor. Looks nonchalant and disinterested. No urgency both in- and out of possession. Feels like he can do so much better but needs someone to get him fired up badly. Cantwell (3) - disastrous performance. If he's going to behave and play like that, then you might as well strip him off the captaincy armband right now. Poor set pieces, doesn't track back properly and sloppy in possession. Henriksson (2) - sorry to say it but this was a bad transfer move from the club's perspective. Looks overwhelmed by the intensity of the league and doesn't possess any technical quality that allows him to compete at this level. Ohashi (5) - same type of performance as usual. Pressing game is good but he's annoyingly ineffective in- and around the box. Doesn't have enough pace to play on the last man and can't compete in the air. Roughly speaking, he's doesn't possess any qualities that enables him to be competitive as the main striker for a Championship side. Subs: Jorgensen (5) - had one decent move in behind opposition defence and looked threatening on that occasion. Otherwise quite anonymous and didn't see much of the ball. Forshaw, Doherty (N/A)
  10. I think most of us would snap your arm off if the JW trust was offered to us.
  11. These were one of the worst teams to come to Ewood this season yet somehow came away with the 3 points. We concede so many soft goals! Given the state of the squad and form a point would be amazing.
  12. Scott Walker - The Old Man's Back Again
  13. He was always down to play at that time but he rarely did! Got extra spectators in though!
  14. I watched my first game in 1952 aged 2 so remember nothing of it! My Grandad, Dad and Uncle were all at the 1928 Cup Final. I had a season ticket from age of 5 in the Nuttall St Stand. My Dad stopped going after the 1960 Cup Final fiasco but I continued. In all those years since I have never felt so bad about Rovers state as I do now. The Venkys have no clue about our culture and the memories and dreams that they are destroying.
  15. What stuck me about the Man United win was just how pedestrian the two City full backs were. City were wide open at the back because those two CMs masquerading as FBs got absolutely rinsed time and again.
  16. Recall the JW trust decided to sell the club because they felt the finances meant they were reliant on player sales to fund operations. Venkys were selected as they had the pockets to fund player acquisitions without relying on the sale of players…hard to see how we’d be worse off if the JW Trust had not sold. The club under the trust may not have had the funds for investment but player sales were reinvested and the back office was a functioning group of competent personnel. We now sell players without reinvestment, and have a toxic culture run by corrupt buffoons. For those who believe the Venky have saved our club should consider how efficient we were prior to their “stewardship”
  17. Seen something mentioned about Dominic Ballard at Leyton Orient. Could be worth looking into?
  18. Well there's not many worth anything but Alebiosu comes to mind. German club reportedly after him.
  19. He’s worse than Coyle, at least his kamikaze football was mildly entertaining at times. Not only are we crap, we’re turgid to boot
  20. I think she just didn’t realise how much she knew until she wrote it down 😅
