v WBA (a) - Valentine’s Day 💙🤍
Bigdoggsteel replied to rigger's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Ya I would stick as well. Just with Pickering and Nyambe back in. Giles could maybe play on the left up top, with Brereton on the right I think Brereton is under a bit of pressure as we all know, we don't have anyone else who scores as regularly. A lot of his goals early on were from nothing really and maybe he's just a bit fatigued or lost that bit of sharpness -

Jesus that's not great, is it? Both options would considerably weaken us defensively -
Should have cashed in if we were offered over £3 million. Doesn't strike me as a lad who will put the clubs aspirations above his own when the chips are down. I think he's a tools down sulker. As Mowbray correctly said we could have signed 2 players from that money. Celtic signed O'Reilly for just over a million and he looks a great player. I would be delighted to be proven wrong on this and for Rothwell to have an amazing end to the season, but I can't see it.

I suppose the only reason to switch to a back 4 I see, is to keep someone on the bench in case another gets injured or sent off. Who is next in line? Magloire? If we did go back 4 , I would be tempted to go with Ayala and Wharton. Ayala can bring leadership and experience. -
No ,another poster said we lost because Mowbray played players out of position and you then gave 3 examples of players who didn't actually play out of position Are you ok?

They have had their moments ,but both are struggling badly the last few games -
January Transfer Deadline Day 2022
Bigdoggsteel replied to Tom's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
We are getting found out a bit too. Who does Khadra have to pass it to? Brereton only really. Just double up on him. Buckley and Rothwell need to step up and contribute -
We didn't lose cos he brought Hedges on there, as you say, we lost cos we weren't good enough. We were second best in every way, missed chances and defended surprisingly poorly
-
He didn't start there though, we were losing at that stage and I suppose it was just get as many attackers on as possible and hope it breaks. Personally I would have brought on Nyambe, but I don't think its fair to say we lost last night because Mowbray has reverted to playing players out of position.
-
Ya and someone could make the counter point to you, that they weren't played out of position
-
Ya it was inexcusable for that tp happen twice in quick succession Have nerves crept in with us I wonder? Missing Brereton for 2 games didn't help either

v Nottingham Forest (h) - 9/2/22
Bigdoggsteel replied to dallydally's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Put it this way, it was easier to score -
It was all working well up to a few games ago. Rothwell was making those decisions to drop back and get the ball. He was paying CM, that's his favoured position. Is Buckley really playing false 9 though? He's more of an attacking midfielder I wouldn't be against swapping them though. The main issue is we have stopped scoring
-
No, Buckley has been playing there all season and Rothwell likewise?
-
It was congested in the middle in their 3rd. They were well set up to stop his breaks.

Just do anything except what he actually did 🤣 The keeper had committed to the dive before he kicked it. Brutal miss. Dack would have stuck that no doubt about it -

Ya, indeed and we are going to have to do it the hard way with our upcoming fixtures. 3 points from the last 12 available How many from the next available 9 -
Who was played out of position last night?

PLAYER WATCH v Nottingham Forest (H)
Bigdoggsteel replied to tonyoz's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Ah easy one to give away. He was exhausted. The run their player made was what Rothwell should have done instead of trying to pass through a defender to Brereton. Terrible decision making -

Don't overcomplicate it guys, he just needed to put it in the corner, high or low. Simple as that -

Thinking though, any Buckley goal I remember was a scuffed/deflected shot. Last night was an absolute shocker of a miss Maybe swap him and Rothwell? Otherwise get Dolan in there and move Buckeky back to Rothwells position. Should have cashed in on Rothwell I reckon -

First goal is crucial. Comes back to Buckley's sitter -
It was embarrassing. One of the worst goals you will see. Definitely not a goal conceded by a team serious about promotion. Zeefuik tried foul him and he couldn't even do that Speaking of fouls , Rothwell did a pretty nasty one. He kind of had to do it ,but it was one where you could injury someone very easily. I don't see many saying it,but I thought he stank the place up last night. Pointless display by him

He has often rested Nyambe, so it's not a major issue imo , although he needs to come back in for the weekend. -
Thier first goal will be horror movie viewing for our players today Worst goal we have conceded all season
