Tony has just wasted another 15 minutes of football. Remember, we're only allowed to make subs after 60 minutes.

I don't think we've even played that well despite what some are saying. Preston have had long spells of possession where we've been made to look like mugs. They're winning and at times have allowed us to have possession whilst getting behind the ball which I think has conned people into thinking we're playing well. We haven't scored and never really believed we look like a team capable of scoring. They look bang average aswell, which pretty much tells you everything you need to know about this shower.

Absolutely furious. Absolutely sick of not turning up in derby's. I'm sick of these soft as shite set of pansies. I'm sick of seeing talentless crap like Smallwood playing ahead of Rothwell. I'm sick of our toilet distribution. I'm sick of all the long balls we play. I'm sick of watching us never turn up in a first half. So many fans at the ground seem to have lost faith in Mowbray.

Yeah I was there. Unreal atmosphere.

Fella my dad goes Ewood with got invited to the training ground recently, I think he won some sort of competition or something, got to watch the players train... That's nothing compared to how he spoke to Dack apparently. Bloke said he tried doing some fancy flick or trick in training and he went ballistic at him not realising fans were there... Quickly realised they were and waved at them to apologise for the language he used.

Mate, fair enough if you want to change managers but don't start comparing him to Steve Kean because thats just not on. I just feel that a change of face who has fresher ideas might just liven things up. Perhaps someone a bit younger. Just speculating.

I think he might need to shake up his backroom staff. What the guy who coaches him called? Time for some fresh ideas perhaps.

Do it again at the end of the season I think.

I have serious concerns over the manager now.

What I've heard aside... Why Joe Rothwell hasn't been playing and the likes of Smallwood have been turning out isn't nothing short of a complete farce... The lad is f*cking miles ahead of anything we have. Disgraceful.

Rothwell technically is clearly the best player we have. I've heard that he seemingly has a bit of an attitude and seemingly doesn't integrate with the players. Maybe that's the issue.

That was absolutely disgusting defending. The whole back 4 and keeper need replacing. Soft as sh*te.

Or should only be trusted in a back 5.

No movement. Put Armstrong up top and have 3 in midfield, sub Smallwood and Bennett for Reed and Rothwell. BUT WE ALL KNOW HE ONLY MAKES SUBS ON 65, 70 and 75.

We're only on top because we're losing, that's not good enough. This team is relegation fodder in its current state, I'll still mean it even if we do find a way to win this. We're starting to see the last days of Graham and Mulgrew, Smallwood isn't good enough, neither is Bell, Raya or Bennet. Too small, too soft and simply not good enough. Preston winning... We'll get murdered off them.

Brereton will be nowhere near this game I think but it might be a good opportunity for him to get a goal on the back of his u23 game. Only big change i want to see is Rothwell in but I'd like to see him giving some minutes to youth players. Season over in my view, obviously would like a win but to not lose again will be a bonus.

Crucial info needed is... Did he play CF?

I can see what you're saying, the way I see it is that we should be trying to improve every position possible, if we bring someone in that's better than him then it's tough, he'll have to step up... Look how many decent keepers the apes have for e.g.

https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/football/rovers/news/17457039.i-dont-want-to-point-fingers-rovers-boss-on-keeper/ "David has found form recently" Eh? Cost us against Brum, Bristol and against Brentford! What's he been watching? Makes me worry he won't be looking for anew keeper. If that isn't evidence enough then I fear what it will take to make him realise. He's liability at the moment. Hate to say it because I like the lad and would like to see him succeed here but he needs to learn and work with a better, more experienced keeper here.

I've had enough of Raya for the time being. Need to desperately bring in a keeper, lad is simply not good enough I'm afraid. He might have a future for us but not right now, he's not up to it. If it's not him costing us goals it's the back 4. That's our season summed up but we say this every f*cking week. Soft as shite.

UTTERLY F*CKING RIDICULOUS. Midfield and back 4 are a complete joke. How is Raya getting best at that angle??? Useless.

He was ready at 65 though! Rothwell at 75?

Really interested to see what minute TM makes his subs, I'm pretty sure he thinks you can only make changes on 65 and 70 ?

Should be playing holding midfield, not a box to box... Just sat in.
