v Norwich City (a) - FAC3 - 8/1/23, 2pm
yellowsubmarine replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Only managed to watch the 2nd half. Dack's movement was a joy to watch. Seems like he's back to full fitness and confidence. Pears caught almost everything thrown at him. Mr Safe Hands JRC was good too when he came on, bar a back header pass which Pears got to it first. Felt like we need a big target man upfront so that we can lump the ball too when we need to release the pressure. All the passing at the back was nervy to watch. -
Championship - 22-23
yellowsubmarine replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Don't think we will finish 3rd. Happy with a playoff spot. The points needed for 6th place in the last 5 seasons are around >70 points. We are still about 30 points away, which means we need 10 wins from the last 20. The fastest we get to that the better. I don't believe our football philosophy will change drastically now, so let's just scrape as many points as we can. We definitely need Diaz to start firing again or JDT to bring in a striker who can score goals. -
v Cardiff City (h) - 1/1/23
yellowsubmarine replied to Sweaty Gussets's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
We have a problem scoring goals or even creating them. JDT needs to solve this, especially our defence is not great either. Diaz seems to be really off-form at the moment, gets into some good positions but he's not hitting the back of the net. Gally/Hedges full of running but really nothing fruitful comes out of it. Dack is a positive today! -

Our football are pretty shite at times. -

yellowsubmarine replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Well done to Preston. Well organised bunch of no marks and still comfortably brushed us aside. JDT and the entire team should hung their heads in shame. -

Nobody wants to shoot the ball, pass after pass. Travis is just soooo poor today. -

Even the commentators are mentioning we are OVERPLAYING at the back. We can have Messi, Ronaldo and Haaland up front but if we keep playing like that at the back, we are so fked! -

We have been working on this comedic act for the past month? -

Wharton's passing is horrendous. Has been for awhile. Got away with a few previously. Definitely his mistake here. -
v The Dingles (a) - 13/11/2022
yellowsubmarine replied to sympatheticclaret's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Was the result unexpected? No. But to put a derby game on the plate for them is out of order. Baffling starting lineup, Mola? Garrett? Brittain at LB, Hedges again at RWB. Scott Wharton on bench. Adam Wharton missing. Dack only came on with 15 mins left? Bringing on Bucko? So many weird decisions. And of course, the passing around in the defence has got to stop. Every time Mola, Ayala, Hyam gets the ball, the Burnley forward line pushes and pressures our defenders and we ended up giving the ball away in our own half. JDT got to sort this out. It has been coming since many games ago but we got away with it. This time in a derby game, Burnley punished us dearly. They are not even spectacular of any sorts. Their football is just efficient to beat us with ease. It was men vs boys. Kalminski (had 2 other great saves) and probably Brittain are our better players today. Poor poor performance which we finally got punished. Let's hope JDT will sort this out in the next month and using this defeat to keep ringing into the players ears during the world cup break. -

After a brilliant week, we revert back to this shit. I hope JDT has a plan. -

What an awesome pre-match we had. Playing a team who dresses like Burnley's colors. High-pressure penalties session. Importantly a morale-boosting victory for the entire team. Best prep for this weekend. -

Dack came on the other game and keep running to press the opposition defence. Vale just came on and jogs around. -
v Hull City (a) - 29/10/22
yellowsubmarine replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Did just enough for a 1-0 lead at HT. Plenty of passing the ball around in our defence, almost putting Hull to sleep. We need to more clinical in front of goal, created a few chances but probably overplayed. -
John Buckley

He might be suitable for La Liga. He's a similar player to Pedri (built and style wise). 😆 -
Premier League 22-23
yellowsubmarine replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
When Jussi plays a long punt to K.Dav who scores, it's Big Sam Route One football. But Allison bypassed the midfield with a long ball to Salah, its a "stunning pinpoint pass". -

First team to reach 8 wins in the league. -
v Wigan Athletic (a) 11/10/2022
yellowsubmarine replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
The only consistent thing is our inconsistency. Why do we perform to get a result for one game and then played badly in the next, repeatedly. I'm worried once we start losing 2 in a row, it will be hard to find the confidence again. Our play so far has been underwhelming. All the passing at the back, hole in the middle of the park, our creative player is on RWB duties, to be honest, i dont even know what style of football are we playing. While 7 wins is nice, the 7 losses are also quite damning.
