Where are the bargain clever signings from Scandinavia ffs? Kompany seems to pull them out the hat for that lot from Belgium, why can't we do the same?

This is all so predictable. Deals should have been done weeks ago. We should have spent £10m-15m this time last year when we were 2nd and used BBD summer sale as our insurance. Instead we did neither and are now loosing are most sellable asset for owt. Utterly pathetic

Haha very good. Ok 'beer' is that better?!

And who comes to Ewood to go off and miss half the game drinking piss in the concourse? It's their choice, why does it matter?

Playing extra time now..

Interestingly Bristol City are at full strength tonight in the cup. So hopefully they'll be a bit leggy come sat!

That's the kind of anti-dingle self depreciating comments we like on this forum!

So here we are almost in mid Jan and not a sniff of a signing. It's the lack of planning that frustrates What were Broughton and JDT doing during the world cup? They would have known that come the Jan xfer window, we would be round about the playoff spots no matter how bad our form was. So why arent we thinking to ourselves, ok here is an opportunity this season, we need 2-3 quality players in these xy positions. Let's go out and get them early. If you do business in the first 2 weeks of Jan, with the fa cup game, the new signings don't miss any league games. Sign them on 31 Jan and you've already missed another few league games. Have we learned nothing from this time last year?! Scrambling around on deadline day?

Iran should be immediately banned by Fifa. Surely that is a politisation of their football..?

I'm surprised that so many aren't raving more about the victory ysday! Especially when you read the first few pages of predictions of us getting battered.. We've just won away from home against the team in 4th*, a team favoured for promotion, at a ground that we never seem to win at! I know Norwich aren't playing great and there is some fan anger, they're still right up there tho! Remember how we used to never win against a top 6 side or against anyone when we were in the top 6? We've been top 6 for the entire first half of the season! I don't want to sound like a happy clapper, cos I was frustrated as anyone at the derby defeats and the inexplicable passing it about at the back. However overall he deserves a huge amount of credit. I think it's a fantastic result and I'm delighted. Sets us up perfectly for the Christmas period!

Excellent and typical TM result. Picks up am unlikely win when things aren't looking good. Keeps in form brum from getting into the playoff spots

Bizarre subs again. I know we're 2nd but honestly his subs are a mare. Markanday and Dack are probably the 2 most desperate for 90 mins. Brings them off for 2 players who will start at burnley?!!

Striker misses chance in headline news?! Yes should have scored, but he's not the first striker to miss an easy chance and won't be last. Encouraging to see him in those positions.

Full time! Rotherham you beauty. If only they had held on to at least a point vs the dingles.

Last min equaliser for Brum vs Swans. QPR lost at home to huddersfield. Sheff U loosing I'm injury time to rotherham. Excellent stuff!

Rotherham 1 up at Sheff U

Huddersfield 2-1 up at QPR. Sheff U currently nil nil. Swans loosing.

100% agree with this. And this is where mine and many other supporters frustration stems from. If the manager doesn't want to start Dack, fair enough. I think if you were in a court you argue that as a reasonable position.. However his failure to bring Dack on when we are literally playing to the standard of a non league team (and instead plays Hirst or Vale) boggles my mind.

Watford and QPR both loosing at home. Good results for us that. Both Sheff U and QPR with very winnable midweek games unfortunately

Exactly, and that is frustrating part. If you put all round pegs in round holes, make appropriate subs at the right time and we lose, then yes fair play. I'm sure that will happen plenty this season and yes we are inconsistent. However that wasn't what happened tonight.

I don't want to be too harsh as he's got us to 2nd and he is a young manager still learning. However he needs to take a large amount of responsibility for tonight with bizarre decision making. 1.) No Pickering and putting Brittain Lwb/ Travis Rwb. Should have Pickering lwb, Brittain Rwb and Travis in midfield. 2.) Hirst for Vale at HT. Hirst is a complete waste of space, why isn't Dack being brought on? 3.) Waiting far too long to make changes. That triple change should have taken place 20 mins before that. All round extremely frustrating and an almost carbon copy of Cardiff and wigan.

Lol literally midway through last season 😅

I suppose after all those late goals being conceded Longers, you were due one the other way at some stage.. 😤

Anyone know what kind of travelling numbers we had there? Another fantastic win, great to see us so solid. No shots on target, sounds like some of our away days earlier in the season! Onwards and upwards. Desperately hoping that either Cov is on or they award us the 3 points, don't want the game rearranged as that will stop the momentum!

Birmingham beating Qpr doesn't surprise me at all. Excellent result that. I said on another thread that beating Brum was an excellent 3 points and they'll take points off our rivals. 2 off Burnley and 3 off qpr in the last couple weeks alone.
