My son won't be there you'll be glad to hear. He's a jinx. He gets the very odd game in when he visits. Norwich last home game. Previously Hull City a couple of years ago.....we lost. Before that Doncaster Rovers in the league cup......again we lost. He cannot remember seeing them win at Ewood. Here's hoping for our first home win of the season.

I thought Rogers was outstanding.

Southgate was best England manager since Robson

I was so miserable. Wow! My spirits have gone through the roof. I mourn for JRC and was gutted about Leonard going. We need a striker and Harry, when fit, can compete in that department. So glad he's staying.

So much for "respecting Jack's legacy". The BBC have got it wrong. We'll finish 24th not 23rd.

I thought it looked like a hamstring or at least an upper leg muscle.

I watched the Palace/ Chelsea game for the last 15 minutes or so. I deliberately watched Adam. He trotted around the pitch for 15 minutes. He touched the ball once into touch. Later he got the ball and played a good cross field pass. And that was it.......all in 15 minutes of play. If I were a scout that wouldn't have impressed me.

He played the second half. I bet he enjoyed it. Although it's a bit warm there this time of year, even in the evenings.

It was in the 1928 cup final when our centre forward barged their keeper, who was holding the ball, into the net thereby scoring our first goal.

Hello, Gumboots. Haven't read you for ages. Glad you're still around.

The referee was abysmal. And I don't say that because we lost. During the first half the Brum fans were singing, "You're not fit to referee". Then, during the second half the Rovers fans were singing the same and the Brum fans joined in. 19,000 people singing it. We have many poor refs but this fella takes the biscuit.

Manager? Venkys out of course.

Agree. And JRC. We look far worse than last two seasons. I'm not convinced about this manager. Anyway, early days. We can only hope things improve.

I watched our game and afterwards the Sheff Utd v Bristol City game. City were excellent, playing as a team; no stars, just good team players. Their keeper could catch crosses and shots. He's on loan from Man Utd. Of course, Bristol City are a well-run club. I'm envious.

Cue Derby to come in for Hyam

De Neve is very bloodied now

Toth's a fucking idiot

Very subtle.

There was a game at Ewood against WBA when there were 22 different nationalities. It was in the days of Chris Samba I think

Maybe we anticipate doing a lot of defending

What a beautiful gold away kit! I must be one of very few on this site to think it's one of the best away strips we've had. Of course I prefer black and red quarters or stripes but this gold comes third.

At least in the second half he'll hear the voices cheering him on. First half he'll think he's playing in a library

Useless people employed by Rovers. They haven't put photos of players on to many of squad names. Some of these are not newbys this window. Hopeless!

After Cambridge lost 5-0 to Leicester, Beck said Rovers didn't have a cat in hell's chance of winning the final. Got that one wrong, didn't he.

So. The brilliant Kargbo played 20 minutes and then faded. Maybe that's why he doesn't start. Rovers look like a relegation side already.
