All so futile knowing will concede about 3 getting thoroughly outplayed in the process. Only to listen to moggasurus banging on about how we were the better side. The closest we will come to him acknowledging we were the worst side is his usual “I didn’t recognise that team out there today” as if it’s not the bloody norm.

https://www.lancashirecricket.co.uk/development/?dm_i=1AF9,7AIAZ,770Z7X,TKMDG,1 Lancs trying to bringing fans along keeping them updated. Funny that. Not trying to sneak through plans without those pesky fans noticing actually involving them. -
It was a rare fuck up by Williams et al which they rectified and a tad slowly I might add.

Funny how Rovers were the first English club to appoint a black British top flight manager (a decision that had nothing to do with race). Not a mention. But when we sacked him it was racist (also a decision that had nothing to do with race). Lazy journalism by the gutter press.

The re-invigoration of BRFC
matt83 replied to darrenrover's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
There’s only 4 ways to get folk who’ve lost interest going again. 1 unfathomably cheap tickets 2 change of manager 3 change of owners/management hierarchy 4 success And for a lot of people I reckon it’ll take all 4. Sadly just isn’t going to happen. We will tread water until such a point the administrators are called in. Hopefully at that point someone will be prepared to suck up a fraction of the £200 million and run the club properly. -
Blackburn Rovers vs Brentford, Friday, March 12.

Back then I really didn’t want to trudge around from pub to ground chanting Kean out. Wasn’t the best look for me particularly if someone from work had seen. But as soon as Kean laughed off the protests vs Arsenal as the 1% I swore I’d never miss another one. If only more did get involved who knows what message that would have sent to India. -

Listening to Thomas Frank speak we just can’t follow the Brentford model. Frank is an intelligent arsene Wenger thinker with some sort of sports psychology degree I believe. Mowbray is a drongo from Middlesbrough who knows more about biscuits than organising a defence. Thinking just isn’t his thing. In general I think Rovers would be better if Mowbray wasn’t told who we were playing until 15 minutes before kick off so he can’t try to think. -
Dougan and the 1960 Cup Final ....
matt83 replied to sympatheticclaret's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Then played injured to have his moment in the sun. Or so the story goes. Pre Kean Dougan was the Kean of the older family generation -

Yeah. How many decent permanent signings has he made in 4 years. 3? Armstrong, Dack and kaminski. -

Surprisingly in the immediate aftermath he repeats enough shit to feel like had a drink but the volume of crap tends to come out in the following days presumably when read his notes. If did it across everything he says would probably be dead -

There was a midweek game on sky so glad that wasn’t included. Think he’d ticked off 6 or 7 things then out of the blue the interviewer pushed him on being working class. -

We play a Mowbray weekend drinking game from his post match quotes. A double measure for each one of the following. Journey, frustrated, highlighting pointless stats like possession, we go again, the better side (in defeat), some reference about what might happen in the future, excuses-injury’s, officials, covid and working class. Initially started including midweek games into the weekend tally but just couldn’t sup that much rum. -
I’m tormenting myself thinking about could be here. When we all know come august it’ll be moggasaurus with his defenders are coming, journey, working class, we go again crap.

If anyone hasn’t read the LET my suggestion is don’t. Tony will have needed a box of tissues after dreaming about Brentford. -
In my opinion he’s not been good enough since limping up from league one.

5 points from 27. Suppose 4 of them from the last 6 available so technically this is the crest of a Mowbray wave. 14 points off the play offs 12 points off relegation sums up the extent of my interest in this. More Mowbray mid-table mediocrity. -

Not a chance the Venkys aren’t fully all over it. It’s probably been sold to them by waggott but in the past I’m sure it’s been insinuated we can’t even get a loan player without their say so. -
I’ll be very interested to see what numbers are like when fans are allowed back in. I’d wager very low. Perhaps a one off spike for first home game then 7k I reckon. They will then blame covid. Anything or anyone but themselves.

Swansea 9th March at Home
matt83 replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Better side but the fact remains 1 win in 9 and 14th in a season Mowbray was targeting the playoffs. Although I appreciate the gold posts are being moved and by now the narrative is he’s done well to keep us up. -
Decent effort. As with Jacknory my initial answer to that question was no. For what it’s worth I think we look a better side when we’re not faffing around with it at the back. I’ll also add the caveat there is a bloody low bar to being better. Moggasaurus seems to be fixated on the idea teams with high possession get out of this division. But what he’s probably too stupid to realise is their possession tends to come in the opposition’s half. Our possession comes from the keeper and centre halves. Pointless possession.

Strange ones. The usual profile is someone who will blindly back anything the club does or says. On Monday they will be vehemently defending the incumbent, if on Tuesday said person is sacked by Wednesday it was the right decision. But when fans who also have the capacity to criticise are bunkering in it really points to some bizarre phenomenon of the individual being bigger than the club. Not even blindly backing a king kenny type legend of the game, tony bloody Mowbray. Weird
