Aaaand breathe. Get in!

Hopefully we hold out but if we lose this from here it's on the manager as much as anyone.

Can't see JRC lasting much longer at Rovers. I don't know what it is but he's been a complete and utter liability under Eustace.

Someone please explain the rationale between never changing anything when losing, but then changing things when we're winning? Hope it doesn't bite us in the backside because it's been decent up until now.

He was never going to be. His job is to create which to be fair we largely are doing. It's not his fault our strikers are National League level at best.

Eustace should have gone at the end of last season.

Gueye out. Gestede out. Eusless out. Waggott out. Venkys out. In literally any order.

Have we seen enough yet to decide that zero experience Rudy should be nowhere near the transfer operations of the club? This is absolutely rotten.

Yep, I said the same and a bit of flack for it. It was inevitable. Venkys have royslly screwed us, but Eusless ball is back in full flow. I gave him the benefit of the doubt when we were grinding out results but nothing I see right now is making me think he's up to snuff.

We could grind out results because we have Szmodics to cover our awful defences mistakes. We got rid of Szmodics and replaced him for as little as possible, and are reaping the results.

Imagine if Luton and Ipswich for example had had that kind of attitude.

You don't understand people getting frustrated at 2 solid months of half-arsed, low effort performances?

I was downvoted by quite a number of people when I said we'd be fighting relegation during the Preston game and unfortunately I can't see anything but. Cuts after cuts after cuts only lead one way. We've got a cheap, ineffective squad with a plodder of a manager and under Venkys we're lucky to even be the division we're in. Every season we have an initial purple patch and then collapse a couple of months into the season. Mentally weak and I'd take surviving the drop as an outcome for the season.

Eventually we're going to start getting punished for these performances. We've been shocking since the Bristol City game, and I'm not entirely sure why.

I wouldn't bother looking up there, we've got an awful away record and we've yet to play anyone decent at home.

Well, I get the office bragging rights so I'll take that, but a lot of work needs doing to make this team competitive over a season.

I think if we get away with our 100% record here West Brom are going to give them a rude awakening. The home form is the only reason Eustace has breathing room - if we start bringing our away game to Ewood we're in big trouble.

If we do then big questions start to come over JE with regards to his tactics and match plans.

They're settling now and I think they'll begin to pull away. I think we might regret not taking advantage of the opportunity to win at the Dingledome. That said, BBC also suggested they got away with another decision in the build up to the goal.

It does seem odd on the face of it, going all out to get players like Gueye and Cantwell to keep the ball higher up the field and then sit on the edge of our own box at home against a mid to low table side. That surely can't have been the plan coming into the season? I'll take what points we can get of course, but it does worry me that we lack the nous to put our foot down on our own turf.

Weirdly I think counterattacking has been our best look for a number of years now, despite the lack of pace. That said, Eustace seems to like us to sit further back than I'm comfortable with, and at home it's a bit of an odd choice. We'll see in an hour or so if it was the right one.

I can only think that the Wahlstedt experiment has made some people wary. That said, I'd love to know how many point Pears has cost us just through individual errors in his Rovers career, must be at least 10 points a season I'd have thought.

I sit next to a Swansea fan at work, anything but a loss but we could really do with a win - we can't afford to let the malaise of the last two games fester.

It always a feels a bit like when Preston try to big up the games with them as the biggest of deals when ultimately the vast majority are focused on the Burnley games more. I wasn't that attuned with the news and all that as I was quite young when Sven and Capello were appointed, was the media backlash like it has been the last couple of days? The right wing rags, radio shows and even Sky Sports seem to be posting nothing but different people complaining about it with differing degrees of vitriol. Honestly some of the stuff has seen has crossed the line into just nasty, ultimately whether you like him or not he's still the England manager. Seen people say they'd rather we won nothing with an English manager - it's pathetic.

I'd have taken Mourinho, box office and a pedigree in navigating knockout tournaments. For me Tuchel is about as good as we could have got, we were never getting Pep and as others have said, has experience with prima donnas and the English media.
