Is there a deterrent for being useless at Blackburn Rovers?

no,it`s a pre requisite in the commercial and financial departments,the manager and coaches just have to bend over and take it,if they want a job

I am surprised that anyone thinks it should have been anything other than a red.

But it didnt cost us the game, thats the key. We held a 1 nil lead going into injury time, again. We might have not had that lead in a totally different game against 10, we might have had a stronger lead, we will never know. The game was thrown away by us, not the referee.

It IS denying an obvious goalscoring opportunity. Which is clearly was. Not an obvious goal. 

You can't interpret rules differently based on a players ability and what they might do next attacker or defender in the phase of play that was denied.

If he's in the box it's a penalty and arguably a yellow card if he tried to play the ball. Outside the box the rules are clear that this is a red card. It's possibly the worst decision I've ever seen at Ewood.

As I say I'm certain it was club bias, I'm confident Pratt, McLoughlin or Miller walk if the roles are reversed.

Pretty much no difference apart from the distance to goal & that the ball is going to come down in the player's stride

Doesn’t matter about the distance to goal or the ball. He’s last man end of.

That's not the laws of the game

Bloody hell, Tronstad is hopeless and Miller even worse. Now you’re arguing with a fair minded Board member who has refereed at the highest level. What’s the view like from up there 🤷‍♂️

I was passing an opinion on Miller not attempting to be unpleasant towards you. He must have been responsible for at least half a dozen goals so far this season.

Don't think I've ever said Tronstad is "hopeless" pretty ordinary is more apt but either way my views on him are completely irrelevant to my views on Miller.

Apologies if you've taken umbrage at anything I've posted, it's a message board at the end of the day and I've merely posted my opinion, Im not attempting to upset anyone. I can't recall you taking particular exception to anything anyone else posted so if you don't like the stuff I post for some whatever reason Id imagine the option is there to put me on ignore.

In the same period since we scored a last minute winner in front of fans, we have conceded 10 last minute winners to lose games.

I thought it might have been more to be fair, although we have conceded plenty of last minute equalisers too.

That is abysmal

Someone posted a link to a stat on X that read:

"Make that 17 result-changing goals conceded after the 90th minute since the start of 2021/22 season to 4 scored."

 

considering 

The last 90+ minute winner in front of fans was November 2019, against Sheffield Wednesday at Ewood.

our form suggests that we will concede another in the 90+ min against Sheffield Wednesday

I think we were more hard done to by by the decision not to award a second corner right at the end than by the red that should or shouldnt have been given,  but either way you're right. We have to defend the situation at the end properly and the fact we failed to do so is 100% on us.

Anything else is just excuse making as Wheelton has said.

If the boot was on the other foot I would accept the red card without question.

You would but others on here? 😉

Nice to see we finally got round to DOGSO rather than 'last man' which is mentioned nowhere in the rules. (I knew the answer to my question Kidder.) 😉

Nice to see Miller get away with a clear yellow early on.

On certain players, Rev’s dug in deeper than an Alabama tic 😂

Terrifying the amount of time's that 'last man' has been cited in these discussions
