  1. Bellamy was a striker who was even better when he drifted out wide. He was never selected and played as a winger.
  2. You don’t play good strikers on the wing.
  3. His comments since suggest he was led to believe funds would be available.
  4. A population of 1.429 billion.
  5. You’ve no idea what he was promised Eddie. It seems reasonable listening to his comments that it was more than this - so far at least.
  6. Yes Parson, I agree with that. I guess I’m thinking more of players who are clearly on the wane, such as the two I mentioned. As much as it’s tempting to get them in hoping they can recover a bit of what they had - like Bamford - it’s usually better to just move forwards.
  7. Fair enough. He was superb when he was here.
  8. Didn’t Dave Gregory come back for a second spell and disappoint?
  9. Whenever we’re discussing the likes of Bamford, I can’t help but think about bringing in other players down the years who used to be pretty good. John Radford and Fred Pickering in particular. It rarely works. Forget them and move on.
  10. Such a fragile squad now. The club should never have been in a position where the January transfer window - when it’s always difficult to bring in quality players, was, in Eustaces’ words “vital”. It’s even more vital now. This just reflects so badly on everyone outside the players and manager.
  11. Was that intentional TS?
  12. There was nothing between the two sides today. Both teams defended excellently but Burnley just had that one goal in them. We didn’t.
  13. I was just going to post the same Arbitro. There really isn’t any excuse. The manager has been saying for months that he needs “quality” bringing into the squad. It’s undeniable that we do. Waggott tells us there’s money available. To be scrapping around in the last hour of the transfer window having waited again to see if anyone’s available on loan from the big clubs would be just inexcusable but I wouldn’t bet against it. I doubt Eustace would tolerate that.
  14. Leonard is 21 now. He should be showing more if he’s to make it at this level. Great battling display from Rovers. Very much deserved that point. We can’t be doing that every week though. Quality up front is desperately needed. There’s money to spend and we’ve had months to sort something out. No excuses from me.
  15. Getting too deep now. No one at all available up front
  16. Like everyone else says, defended from the front and defended well. Neither keeper had a save to make. Absolutely no pace anywhere. Im sure Rovers have a pacy, quality front man lined up already.
  17. I don’t see too much quality in front of that back line.
  18. I went to Anfield earlier this season when Forest won one nil. People were just writing the result off as a bad day for Liverpool. What I saw was a forest side who played 5 across the back with big lads in the centre of defence winning everything. They defended deep denying Salah and his mates no space to run into. Forests keeper wasn’t ever stretched. Up front down their left flank in particular they had skill and pace that threatened Liverpool more and more the longer the game went on. Forest looked a good side to me.
  19. By and large, they don’t support them. They sit at home in front of the telly and wouldn’t ever venture to the matches. Youre a supporter Chaddy. You’re there at every opportunity and put thousands into Rovers. They don’t.
  20. Neither of them are good enough Jim. Nowhere near good enough for any ambitious club.
  21. Who’s Evan Ferguson and how can anyone be “partly” dead?
  22. It was the fans favourite game of the 70’s https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/10456927.favourite-blackburn-rovers-match-70s/
  23. Rovers/plymouth 2006 on this forum
