Mike Graham Posted April 22, 2017 Author Share Posted April 22, 2017 Where do I start. I am not one to be over dramatic or critical but....... What a bunch of limp wristed, lily livered, yellow belly footballers. And as for Mowbray he is useless. We produced sod all. ToMo takes off Conway who was our only creative player. Wolves played as if it was a training session. We had no penetration. They had 9 behind the ball and we did not have a clue as to how to break them down. Grea support from the Rovers fans. The last 20 minutes they were silent though; it was like watching a funeral. Down and Out and a very angry PB posting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Marshall and his mates are staying my hotel tonight I hope you don't go sucking up to Marshall. If it was me I'd be telling him he was a disgrace during his time here and it's the attitude and performances of him and players like him over the last few years that are at least partly responsible for putting us where we are now.

JohnD Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 I'm going next week to watch possibly our last ever home match in the Championship but I won't be giving any applause to anyone on the Ewood staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkBRFC71 Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Let's be honest, there's no way Birmingham will lose all 3 games, and there's no way we will win both of ours. We are all but mathematically down - we all need to face the fact we'll be in League One next season. Simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. Go full Jack Bauer on him please Chadster. Lock him in your room and throw a few bedside tables around and he'll spill the beans on Venky's. Stream it live.

Parsonblue Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Set up to grind out a 0-0 and that's what we achieved. Sadly, it was never going to be enough. I don't think either 'keeper had a save to make and for a must win game our tactics, team selection and substitutions were baffling to say the least. We are going down because we are not good enough for the Championship and today was a perfect example of just how poor we are. Wolves were shocking and we couldn't summon up any sustained pressure or decent efforts on goal. Quite why Conway and Bennett were taken off - considering they were our only creative outlets - remains a mystery. Dreadful day all round with fellow relegation strugglers getting the results they needed while we continue to flounder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately for us, this is one match in which Villa will throw the kitchen sink at it. Cotterill is no fool and I would expect Brum to have too much fire for a fading Huddersfield at St Andrews and possibly for Bristol City, who may well have packed up for holidays, on the last day of the season. QPR are the team we might catch if we win our last two. You changed your tune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Backroom Tom Posted April 22, 2017 Backroom Share Posted April 22, 2017 I think we pretty much all expect a Brum win tomorrow, no way I can see us getting out of it now. We'll miss you Mercer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West Yorks Rover Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 The games up folks, anyone thinking we'll win our last 2 games is deluded, I doubt very much we'll beat Villa at home, as for Brentford away they are on very good form at home again, won their last 4, scoring 11 and conceding only 1, they'll want to go out on a high and they will.

AllRoverAsia Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 For months I have worried about being away to Brentford last game. I seriously think they will turn us over big time. They are just not the sort of Club to go easy at home to anyone. Our pansies will wilt and die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Graham Posted April 22, 2017 Author Share Posted April 22, 2017 I heard a rumour at Wolves today that the Riverside is to close next season (condemned apparently) and the pies will double in price and halve in size. Tough times ahead. New song: "Rochdale, Bury, Oldham and the D W Is next season where we will be following you." and: "Fleetwood, Fleetwood here we come."

matt83 Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 "We lacked quality in the final 3rd". I refuse to use the word quality to describe any of our players but what does he expect when the 3 players vaguely capable of producing something even resembling quality come off the bench late on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pk1875 Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Bristol City today 52% Possession 24 Shots 8 On Target Burton Alb today 36% Possession 11 Shots 3 On Target N Forest today 41% Possession 19 Shots 10 On Target Rovers today 51% Possession 5 Shots 2 On Target and there in lies our problem in my opinion which teams looks like they fought for their lives today when you look at attempted shots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattyblue Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Back home, around £70 lighter, banging headache and just thoroughly sick of this disgrace of a season. Think it was Parson who wrote how he 'enjoys it'. I love the club, I am a passionate fan and that's what keeps me going- loyalty, duty, call it what you want. However, the past 6 years have been anything but 'enjoyable', just one long, depressing journey downwards with no end in sight that I can see.

It is the cycle of football, ups and downs. It is the same shirt and badge and you should continue enjoying the 'experience' of watching Rovers and attending some new grounds.

The fact that Keans contract accounted for League 1 where we are heading wasnt natural either. This was all so easily avoidable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
