Travis was way off the pace of the game. I don't think he's fit. Perhaps that's why their scorer ran through midfield so easily. Still Dolan flatters to deceive. No end product. Brereton was greedy and ran into blind alleys. Armstrong and Dack were little boys lost. Davenport should have been given the whole game in midfield alongside Trybull and Downing. Douglas should have started at right back. I'm clutching at straws because we all know the real problem.

Because they don't want to receive a record number of complaints. Or maybe they are just as pissed off with Mowbray as we are.

Nigel Pearson for me.

He was on a yellow card for being too slow earlier.

This. Over the past 3 seasons I cannot see a regular steady progression of all things at the club. We need a new manager and new backroom staff.

No it was Johnson.

Nothing to see but some repetitive music to listen to.

And you call yourself a Blackburn Rovers supporter? Have you never learned the lesson over many years? This will probably be another great win for Donny regardless of whatever team we put out. Anything different to that will be a bonus.😬

That Frenzy is poor but not as bad as the By Gum..... and Come on......... which were embarrassing. Chelsea had a good one with "Blue is the colour", and Spurs had "Nice one Cyril" The best for me is the current version of "Wild Rover" which they play at Ewood.

My dad took me in the early 1950s. We always sat in Nuttall Street stand, Stand B which was the one at an angle nearest the Blackburn End. There we sat on benches as in the previous photograph. The straight stand running to the Darwen End was known as Stand A and, as far as I know, had individual (bucket) seats. We also took my dad's friend who had lost a leg in the 1st world war. We always left early, about 5 minutes before full time, to get back to my dad's car which he parked up that little street in front of The Fox and Hounds. It was Stand B that later burnt down. Just think, 47er, us little lads may have been sitting near each other in those days.

I don't blame him. Gone to China to avoid this awful COVID.

Appleton wasn't here long enough for us to see what he could do. Neither was Berg.

Askey gone from Port Vale, too. He was there as long as Mowbray has been with us, nobbut.

I heard that he, Joey Barton, has had a disagreement with Ched Evans. Maybe Joey has left the club because of lack of support from the owner.

I was once in The Royal Garrison pub, Deepdale, Preston where Bruce Grobbelar was present to officially open it after refurbishment. I saw someone looking very much like Glen Keeley. I asked him," Are you Glen Keeley?" His reply was, "Not tonight I'm not." I never did know if it was him.

Neither was Kaminski's save shown.

Two things surprised me yesterday. Douglas played far better at right back than he does at left back. Rothwell was absolutely awful when he came on. I know he didn't have many minutes but he was shocking.

Screen was definitely Blackburn End/ Riverside. Although I do remember sitting in the Darwen End new stand to watch another game on a big screen which was in the Darwen End penalty area. What game was that?

A huge, huge difference in ability between Sutton and Gallagher.

Kaminski deserves praise for that save at the feet of Hogan. He kept us in the game.

I'm tempted to do so. Even though I have a season pass, the opportunity to watch an away game without having to travel for £10 is very tempting. I don't normally attend away fixtures unless it's in Lancashire.

Maybe I'm the only person who enjoyed watching Hildersley. I know he passed a ball back in the air to his goalkeeper once which hit the bar but I thought he was OK. Although he never seemed to be as good as when he played for PNE. Another Rovers "character".

I was there on the pitch which looked more mud than grass and stank to high heaven. I thought that the first player to be sent off was a young lad who was being given the runaround by Bailey. I was in the Riverside and watched Osgood run from near us on the Saints' left wing diagonally towards the corner flag between Nuttall Street and Blackburn End. He caught up with Bailey just as Bailey got into the Saints' penalty area, scythed him down mercilessly and then stamped on him thereby giving us a penalty and getting sent off. The TV pundits felt sorry for Southampton. I felt sorry for Bailey. At least Alan Ball admitted at the end of the season, after they had been promoted, that Rovers had given them a difficult time.

Are we surprised? Answers on a post card please.
