Including the cup game, average attendance was about 15,700 last season - https://www.footballwebpages.co.uk/blackburn-rovers/attendances/2024-2025 Including the cup game and last night, average attendance is 13,500 this season - https://www.footballwebpages.co.uk/blackburn-rovers/attendances The Burnley and Sunderland games made a big difference last season.

Not sure it was a 'comfortable' option, more a frustrated one where we've traipsed down to Ewood Park twice this season in the rain only to see the match abandoned. It's quite a time commitment. With no apology for Saturday and no resolution in sight, how could we trust this club to fulfil the fixture if it rains?

Gudjohnsen 6 goals in 15 games,is that negative impact? Alebiosu been outstanding McLoughlin, Miller, TGH, Morishita all have a positive impact for me. Morishita is getting better.

One man’s legacy Destroyed by four Indians Jack will be spinning

There was a moment in the second half where the ball was played to Tavares near the edge of our box (by I assume Ribeiro, but it was by someone occupying that spot). Instead of turning on the ball into absolutely acres of space he played a simple pass the direction he was facing. Even Rovers commentary team, who see everything through rose tinted glasses, groaned.

John Denver - Leaving On a Jet Plane

I'm amazed Gardner-Hickman gets so much grief on here.

You can only sell/loan players if you can find buyers. If Carter could be sold/loaned then fine, but given his struggles to stay fit, I do not feel we would find any takers. In that instance we are left with him here, as part of the squad, When fit, he is first choice in that right centre back role for me, but it would be madness not to insure against another likely injury

In terms of bare additions, it's one extra body. Whether anyone brought in in January will make a difference or Ismael will like them once he gets them here, remains to be seen. Most of the players brought in in summer have had a negative impact imo.

Out of interest what was the average away fans number for last season. A different supporter started this debate last night by somehow suggesting that paying suppporters were supporting Venky's with the implication that if more stopped going Venky's would leave. Your actual numbers suggest that is unlikely to happen as they are still here. Many supporters in the ground want them to leave. We need a united fanbase whether you attend or not without blame games, unsupported by evidence, being played!

We cant keep stockpiling players. 6 is enough. Either you keep Carter and leave O'Riordan on loan, or bring O'Riordan back and either not buy one or buy one and sell/loan Carter out.

I dont think the media have ever cared. Small Lancashire Town, small gates, must be because they aren't in the prem, will be most peoples thoughts. Most people just put us in a homegenous blob, indistinguishable from Burnley, Bolton et al. We will never get a full boycott, not even for a game. Everything thats happened in 15 years should be enough in most normal circumstances for the owners to leave. If people enjoy going, go for it, lifes too short, it doesnt mean they condone the way club is run. The only people who need to stay away from Ewood and fuck off and never come back are Suhail, Rudy and the Rao's (makes me laugh the same people who slag off fans for not attending, defend the owners, who havent been in over 10 years !).

In numbers, it is enough, but when we factor in the injury records of Carter & Wharton, we need another. Assuming they both (Carter & Wharton) come back from injury in the New Year without their returns being delayed, it would be almost unbelievable to think that neither would be injured for at least a month or 2 later in the season, purely based on past history

It's already below 11k this season

Hope Tronstad is back for this.

Which is decent considering the last 15 years. Rovers clearly need new owners who care!

So if Carter stay and we buy another that's 6 players for 3 roles? How is that not enough plus Ribeiro. Carter, Miller. New signing, Pratt, Wharton, McLoughlin

The actual average attendance last season was 12,822, including away fans

Also they're in euros

While our club is struggling under Venky's the average attendance last season was over 16 thousand minus away fans. Not sure how long it will take for the 'remaining few' to stop going! It will need organised action similar to that at Sheffield Wednesday.

There were some positives from the game last night. Thought Morishita looked really good again and is fast becoming one of our best players. Good on the ball and has a good work ethic. Baradji looked good when he came on. Unlike most of our players, he has good technical ability and speed. Toddy head and shoulders above everyone else when he came on. He'll have certainly instructed his agent to get him a move next summer.

Carter will stay, as he will not be able to find a buyer due to injury history If O'Riordan is not recalled, then another centre back is needed as well as the one that's already being brought in

Will O'Riordan be recalled? Will Carter stay? Big questions there. Like Harris suggestion tbh.

Pretty much a big game for both teams. Tough place to go to, Pompey will be up for this one. 3-0 rovers.
