Pasha is gone?

He's in India trying to persuade our owners to stop their boycott of Ewood Park

Seems likely we have seen the last of Mak then. Wonder where he will end up?

Feel a bit sorry for him. Seems very much a confidence player who needs a manager who likes him and who's prepared to put an arm round his shoulder.

He's got entirely the wrong bloke now here, but obviously it's a tough old game not a kindergarten.

Does Sheffield W have a bunch of kids in their lineup....they have massive problems fielding a team tonight.

What’s the Gueye situation?

Sadly instead of kicking on this season he’s looked unfit and uninterested.

I have to say I was wrong on this one, I saw a player in him, an ungainly, chaotic and unpredictable player but still someone to pose a threat. This season he’s had minimal chances but never looked like staking any sort of claim.

If he was the player I hoped there was he’d have been ideal for this league in the Kenan Davis, Kieffer Moore battering ram style forward but it seems he’s not that man. At least without a run of games which we can’t afford.

He’ll likely be off the first couple of days of the window to Turkey or Saudi Arabia.

I see people lamenting the loss of Leonard after he’s scored a few in league one but I don’t think he was the answer either it will need either a rabbit out of the hat signing or some proper investment now!

Andri has proven the first one is possible at least even here

If Ismael can't get us beating an depleted Wednesday then he has to go for me.

Chansiri destroyed their team in the summer. They're regularly fielding youngsters these days - hence the one win all season.

Well we're on our way doing the same...

[bazza]

Oh dear. The referee is Oliver Langford.

[Tom]

Liam Cooper injured for them in the warm up so another change, we can’t really use injuries as an excuse tonight given their issues

[Gav]

If you see some fat bloke slumped in his seat, covered in pizza and pig, wake him up please….

That bench has to be the weakest I have ever seen as a Rovers fan.

Or if it all goes wrong have you got the right footwear to get on the pitch?

Indeed. This has another low scoring draw written all over it. Where are our goals coming from ?
