I think Ayari, Chrisene and the french CB are free loans - the parent club saying "would you mind taking them on for 6 months 'cos their initial loans failed. We'll let you have them for free". 

They should be paying us! And the cherry on top is they’re blocking the pathway of our own lads.

Just how bad is the Swedish team if Ayari and Wahlstedt have got caps?

 

Those caps were friendlies where only players from the scandinavian leagues were selected.

[Lancaster Rover]

Not one to say I told you so but at 5’6 and 10 1/2 stone you’ve got to be a hell of player to cut it in the champ, Ayari is not a hell of a player

JDTs prints are all over this team. He's only been gone a wet week. The problems he created are still there.

 I've never seen JDT's team play as badly as this.

I could frame it that anything good that JDT instilled into the team, went with him. And all of the failings while he was here can be put down to some terrible footballers and the awful bunch that assembled them.

[simongarnerisgod]

If that's what Euston is going to serve up we might as well be relegated this season and save the pain of being next seasons Rotherham. 

Euston, we have a problem!

Just need to crawl over the line at this stage and assess in the summer. Hopefully better times ahead.

Coventry fans pretty much told everyone, then someone in recruitment identified him as a potential signing then Gregg signed him.

Another diabolically standard Tuesday night Championship away performance from Blackburn Rovers.

What minute for the typical 2nd half home team winner? I'm going 76th. 😴

87th

BigBar, you and I generally see things about football similarly, but you can’t be blaming a manager you were slating to high heaven while he was here, when he’s been sacked. When does it stop being his fault?

He had us on a rotten run of form for months. Was it something like 1 win in 10? It's a poor bunch alright but he never managed to stop the rot. Terrible combination.

Conceding less, more defensive sound now with three CB's but also a lot worse going forward.

[Angry_Pirate]

0.02xg 

Are you kidding me, that it pathetic, even for a fake stat.

Rovers would have to play that half FIFTY times (or for 37.5 hours) before they would be "expected" to score 1 goal! 🤣🤪

Edited February 20 by Angry_Pirate
Missed the decimal.

[Erased Citizen]

This is so incredibly shite from both teams that it's genuinely entertaining🤣🤣

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

We've threatened more in 48 secs than the first 45 mins.

Yet we still weren't playing as badly as that half of football.

Let's hope Eustace has a plan B (spoilers, Brum fans say he doesn't).

[GaryC]

Poor first half definetely,  Dolan needs to come on for me

[Inferi]

What a terrible performance. Feels harsh to judge Eustace this early but we look completely hopeless. I wonder if those clowns who celebrated a successful transfer window are still happy.

[johnradfordsubbuteo2]

spread bet!

[Polky]

Rovers TV have said that Markanday and Buckley went through a ‘vigorous’ warm up at HT.

I didn't slate him to high heavens, I was fair, I just wasn't a fan. What did I say that was so bad? He is naive? Let me be clear, Waggot, Suhail and Venkys are the fucking problem.

My point is people saying how bad this is like it's Eustace's influence and we've fallen off a cliff since JDT left. Let's not have short memories. I want to give Eustace a fair crack, I think that's fair.
