I agree, but you didn't respond to my previous question just how Brereton, "if he was an good" would have torn their defence apart? They were camped in their box. Personally I think we should have tried a few more efforts from distance. Anyway, we had enough chances to win 3 or 4 to 1. Pity

Transfer Window - Success or Failure
Bigdoggsteel replied to roversfan99's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I thought Rothwell looked decent yesterday, but he had my heart in my mouth on a couple of occasions. It was a positive sub replacing Smallwood with him, but I can certainly see why Smallwood starts ahead of him. -
How? They were defending with pretty much 10 players in their box when we were on the attack. How would he have torn them to pieces? I would like to have seen him on earlier, but to say if there was anything about him, he would have torn them to pieces doesn't really make sense. Dack has plenty about him and he couldn't tear them to pieces

I streamed it, couldn't get ifollow to work no matter what location I set the VPN to. Quality was poor enough first half, but perfect second half. It's £10 for me to watch it on ifollow, thats just over €11. I don't mind paying it and would if I could have today, but that's pretty expensive. I find the commentary pretty good and the lack of replays don't massively bother me (unless the stream jobs or stutters, then it's annoying) For a bit of perspective, t's the same amount as Netflix costs for a month. Supporters really are being milked from every angle, from jerseys to tickets to this. I would love to know the breakdown of who gets what from a €75 jersey. Why are they all the same price? They cost about a pound to make!

In fairness Boro defended so narrow, we needed real guile around the box to get through and credit to our players, we nearly feckin did a few times.If Evans "shot" in the first half goes in its game over. Dacks one off the post was a really nice move. That's twice he has hit the post in two games. I do think he is looking good now though. Some of the touches and passes today were sublime. I'm starting to think he wouldn't look out of place in the premier league. I had my doubts. Evans second one was even easier. He can look at good at times, but he is pedestrian. You're not going to get a while lot of defence splitting passes. I actually think Smallwood is the more creative of the two. He had a good solid game again today. Would like to have seen Brereton around 65. Armstrong needs to go home and have a look at himself in the mirror. He was shocking. He ran two defenders just after coming on, did well, but that is his only 'trick", he got clattered late. We were still on the attack, he moped around, strolled back onside. It took at least 60 seconds and all that time Williams and someone else were looking for the ball to him. It really pissed me off to be brutally honest. He should have been up, making himself available. He looked like a spoilt little brat of a footballler. Things went downhill for him from there. -

Very disappointing. We could very well be having an incredible season if we just came out on the right side of the stuff you mention -
Championship 2018-19

Was watching highlights of Forest on YouTube after I subscribed to their channel. I'm very impressed with them. I reckon they might sneak automatic. Lolly and Cash (sounds like two cowboys) are great players. If we had them on the wing, we would go up. I know Lolly is definitely a winger and I think cash is too, although that isn't mandatory to play on the wing here. The two of them look deadly. Bit jealous. -

Thought Mulgrew was immense today. One of his best games in a long time. Downing did well too. Except for the blunder around 70 min Agree Boro don't look great. I actually backed them to go up. It's hillarious Pulis is trying to recreate delaps long throws, but the Boro player can't throw it the same as Delap could. Delaps deliveries were head height and straight. Very unique. Bit questionable from Pulis to be trying that. Alps Hugill is not a Pulis forward. I bet he tried to sign grabban. -

Ya, that was brain dead. People say he should be played centrally, but if ever there was a time to just pull the trigger, it was then. Even if he reached his second touch, he had made the angle worse. He had a stinker today -

Oh right, that wasn't clear as the original post mentioned both Rothwell and Brereton and you didn't specify which one you meant -

That was frustrating. My thoughts Armstrong was pathetic. Strolling around. I can forgive mistakes, attitude I can't. Evans needs to either practice his shooting or stay the hell out of the box We could easily have lost that and they were poor and down to 10 men. I can understand leaving Graham on, but he was shattered. Brereton should have been on sooner Annoying game now. -

Armstrong has been a disgrace since coming on. Moping, fouling and doing awful crosses -

They have used all their subs. Interesting If Tony uses ours correctly, could be key -

Ya, you would think Pulis will be under pressure if they lose this. I'd say it's a passionate team talk. I can see Dack creating something when they inevitably push out -

I don't know what their players are complaining about. Even their fans on ifollow are under no illusions it was a red -

Really bad miss by Evans. He needs to be finishing that. He did really well earlier in the move though in fairness -

Very cute by Dack not to play on when tugged back there. Red and a free. Stream jumped just as Mulgrew scored though -

They show a pic of the jerseys every week. It never gives anything away. Same team. No surprise there. Strong bench. I hope Rothwell and Brereton get on -
JANUARY TRANSFER WINDOW

Perhaps, but as two frees, I think they would be worth a shout. Maybe keep the budget for one real quality addition on the wing, at cb or upfront -
JANUARY TRANSFER WINDOW

Reed, Chapman, Bauer on permanent and a striker on loan.
