Only using players you’ve seen…

You can fairly accurately work out the age of every poster from this thread 😊 -
Only 2 positives about that video - the signing of Ennis and the fact that Pears caught the ball of paper without dropping it.

Ah that myth being peddled again. Tugay played a high risk high reward forward passing game. If AW is performing at the top level when he’s 34 you can then start making comparisons.

Blackburn Rovers v Middlesbrough ticket stubs wanted

Is that postponed one in 96 when boro decided they didn’t have enough fit players to put a team out and got a points deduction? -
Bradley Dack - Twist or Stick?
toogs replied to bigbrandjohn's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I recall him taking a quick throw in down the line from the half way line in one of the last home games of this season. A strictly forbidden strategy by us it would seem these days. I immediately looked over to JDT who turned from his position on the byline and went over and said something to his assistants. I suspect he isn’t one to toe the line which has probably hastened his departure from the club. -
Would have been nice to acknowledge the fans. Scored some good goals for us but imo by far the best was the header vs PNE at home. Absolute class, although I’m not 100% he meant it. Sums up the player. A bit of an enigma. He will become an even better player or totally bomb wherever he ends up. I really have no idea.

v Millwall (a) - Monday 8th May
toogs replied to arbitro's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Can’t even have a convo with my 80 year old Dad because of the noise levels. Another erosion of the matchday experience. Bit by bit they seem to be pushing me away from supporting Rovers. 🤷🏻 -
If only it was. Form suggests we won’t.

It certainly does me! I accept it’s hard to get a decent striker in when you are in the loan and freebie market. However we supposedly offered Diaz a lucrative 1 year deal to stay another year and were prepared to pay O’Brien prem wages for 6 months so there must be some money in the pot and still be able to avoid coming a cropper over ffp?

....and Venky's continue to allow it to happen.

And the font’s all over the place. -
2 poor games - he’s shit. 2 good games - he's great. Half a season scoring goals - he’s worth £25m in the current market (Diaz). 4.5 seasons being poor to average - he’s not good enough - bench him, don’t care if he leaves. If Dolan’s decision making was better he wouldn’t be playing for us. If Dolan’s work rate and effort was worse, he wouldn’t be playing for us. Imo he’s still developing and I haven’t written him off. Some clearly have.

Something very smelly? I'm not itk by the way, just surmising.

v Huddersfield (a) 10/4/23 @ 12.30pm

The players don’t deserve “Rovers” based in this performance -
Yeah sorry I thought I was in the match thread. Yesterday as soon as they scored and for the 10 mins after it was just all so predictable and you knew where the game was going. The keeper had a couple of saves to make towards the end which if we had a decent finisher maybe would have scored. Norwich were miles better though. Adam W when he came showed more forward vision in his Cameo than Morton has all season.

“I thought it was an equal game”. Hmmm Question I would have asked…. ”Jon, we seem to have an inability to get back into games if we go a goal down. Your style is clearly to play around at the back to invite teams on to us, thus creating space and chances. However, once we go a goal down, continuing to do that doesn’t work because the opposition have no incentive to come at us anymore. Why do you persist with the same tactics when we go a goal down when the stats are proof it has never worked?”

What's the official reason for the Burnley allocation being so low?

Having watched Rovers for 40 years in big occasion matches, there was nothing odd about it. -

Something it was obvious to anyone with an ounce of foresight knew Mowbray wasn’t doing after 2.5 seasons with us. Experts on here knew better though. -

Yes, the “Toughsheet Stadium” 😂 and they’ve just signed a player called Gerald Sithole. You couldnt make it up.
