I enjoyed the first Ni no Kuni a lot. Reminded me of old school FF. Did you play it? -

I would be interested to hear your thoughts on it. I played around 10 hours -
I don't see how this is our best starting 11, whatever stats you take into it. Reed has never played there for us Bennett is not a left back Dack not a left winger If you were picking our best 11, would you not use a formation that we actually use? Home team Raya Nyambe Lenihan Rodwell Bell Travis Reed Rothwell Dack Armstrong Graham Away team Raya Nyambe Lenihan Rodwell Bell Travis Evans Reed Dack Armstrong Graham

How so? -
If we sign Chapman and send him on loan to League 1, what are the odds he will get injured? High I would say. In fact I would be far more surprised if he didn't get injured

I don't think Mowbray and the team are happy to settle for where we are judging off every comment I have read from them -

Morning all Fascinating insight into Mowbrays approach to the transfer window here. All very honest and you would have to say practical https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/football/rovers/news/17383775.mowbray-on-why-rovers-havent-made-any-january-signings/ I found this quote most interesting. I wonder who he is talking about “Have we got the numbers to go and take someone out of our rivals in this league? They won’t be cheap and you’d have to pay over the odds and hope they grow in to an asset. On the quotes about players from Europe though. I understand his point of view, but it proves what a lost of us speculated about him largely favouring British and Irish players or guys who have come through the youth set up like Raya. You ain't arriving over from European football and getting straight into Tonys team! Not sure I fully agree with him. There are obviously bargains to be had, but you certainly need to have done your scouting. -

I think it is odd to say he won't sign anyone because we have good young players, because he is after loaning the 2 best young center halves out! If Wharton or Grayson were still here i would say fair enough. -
Bowen on the right and Grosicki on the left are two serious danger men. The missus is Polish, so I watch a fair bit of them. I always thought Grosicki is a handful. He is a very hard worker, direct and dangerous around the box. I know less about Bowen, but his stats are up there with anyone in the Championship. I watched the extended highlights of Hulls game at Villa last night. They looked about as dodgy as we can be at the back, especially from set-pieces. Abraham caused them a lot of problems with his direct running. I got the feeling watching that we could cause them problems. I just worry about our full-backs and the 2 Hull players I mention above. Bell needs to get tighter than he does and as for right-back, I would prefer Nyambe there. Grosicki is an experienced player and although Nyambe is younger, he is actually a right back and I think his strength could curtail Grosicki. I just wonder does Mowbray have to play one of Mulgrew and Bennett to have his chosen captain on the field.

Your best 5 and worst 5 Rovers games!
Bigdoggsteel replied to JeffRover's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I attended the 7-1 away defeat to Arsenal under Kean with one Arsenal fan and one obnoxious United fan who reveled in the scoreline. A bad, bad day for me. We were sitting in the Arsenal end and my United supporting mate took great joy in standing up, pointing at me and saying loudly "BLACKBURN FAN, WE'VE GOT A BLACKBURN FAN HERE". All I got were looks of pity from the Arsenal fans. An awful day... -

Quotes from Mowbray “I like our young centre halves, Wharton and Grayson are out on loan and Platt has been on loan, but Tyler Magloire is a really good footballer. “So I’m not in a rush to just add another player who would block the pathway of our talented young players, so I’m pretty relaxed with four centre halves and a batch of young ones sitting behind them. “If they need blooding before then, then we will have to put them on the pitch and see how they get on.” -

Ya but my point was if he was that good a Premier league club would pay him those wages. Ya, hopefully the chickens will come home to roost for Villa this summer -

True, but we have spaces for loans, so I don't see why we don't just use them. -
