Yeah, the cure is having our bottlejobs as competitors -

I can, we always turn up when it's too late to mean anything -
v Millwall (a) - Monday 8th May
RTM08 replied to arbitro's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
How anyone can have watched this last month or so and thought he's the one I'll never know. Regardless of the lack of a striker the football we play is still suicidal, the team has no fight or will to get back into games and the game management is non-existent. Absolute dross. -

As always we have no bottle for a big game. Still not convinced how this new brand of football is supposed to be entertaining when we seem to be completely incapable of competing with anybody. -

May as well throw Wigan at home while we're at it. We've been god awful against some of the worst sides in this league. -

Yep, contrast that with: Burnley Home and Away, Preston Home and Away Rotherham Away Reading Away Luton Away We have been absolutely shocking at times this season. -

Biggest mistake Venky's made in the last 10 years is not getting Warnock through the door. It wouldn't have been pretty but I bet we'd have made the playoffs. -

I hate this framing. This framing implies we've fought for where we are. The actual facts are, since they first started talking about "cup finals" and "big games" at the FA cup QF, we have won ZERO games. A SINGLE win in any of those and we're probably in the play-offs. Yet again we had a massive advantage and completely and totally bottled it. Instead, we have to watch this turgid, lethargic, tippy tappy football with absolutely no urgency to suggest that we actually want promotion. Taking the table out of context completely distorts what has actually happened. -

As expected - bottled it but not quite enough to just get it over with. Not a chance this lot take points at Millwall next week. Every single game that they talk up as a massive game we fail to win, because this team has no leaders, and not winners. -

What's the betting we draw and bottle it when there's a chance at the weekend? -

Imagine serving this drivel again and again at the business end of the season and then complaining that no one wants to pay over the odds for a season ticket. -

Any players that were here last year AND this year for the total and utter collapses need punting immediately. -

A manager who would rather play pretty football than effective football and it's screwed our season. Honestly won't lose sleep if he goes elsewhere in the summer. -

RTM08 replied to roverandout's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Another half with no goals. I appreciate we don't have a striker but this "new improved" brand of football seems to have removed our ability to grind out narrow wins. Hope we can nick it in the second half but we absolutely don't deserve playoffs based on the last 6 weeks. -

One thing I will say, is whoever on the media side of things who keeps highlighting the players saying all these games are "cup finals" needs to stop. I'm actually sick of hearing it now. We've heard it since coming out of the international break between every game - we've won zero and it's starting to grate a bit. -

RTM08 replied to roverandout's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I'm not sure where this idea of Luton being on the beach has come from as they're significantly more potent than we are and just beat Boro. They're one of the form teams in this league! Add to that the fact that we always struggle against them and I just don't see where a resukt comes from - the away fixture was one of the biggest wastes of money I've ever spent. At the end of the day, we came into the month with 9(?) "cup finals", and literally winning even one would have had destiny in our hands, but they've bottled it completely (yes, January is partly to blame but winning none of that run of fixtures is still abysmal). We don't create anything and this team doesn't scrap. Rovers 0-2 Luton -

And yet still scored and conceded none, the bare minimum required to win a game of football. -

And I'm sure they would trade in their title for our zero goals and our "better team" blue peter badge. Only one thing is important, and losing well isn't it. -

RTM08 replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I disagree. Much like our 5-0 win in 2002, this moment will be replayed for decades by them. Also bear in mind that in addition to winning the title, they have also more than likely ended any hope of the play-offs for us, and I believe that mark ten years without even a GOAL against them. The title itself was never important, but the location was vital. They will get the riches of the premier league again whilst we will continue to sit in relative squalor and the gap will widen. It will take a complete miracle of a season for us to close that gap now. -

A bit of a pointless comment considering Megson didn't get results either. But if you're happy to continue watching us do sweet FA game after game, get consistently embarrassed by our bitterest rivals etc then be my guest. Not a chance Venky's back JDT with anywhere near enough to make this football work at the level we need it to. -

Is it? I keep hearing that word "improvement" but if you're playing "well" but not creating chances/picking up points consistently, you're not playing well. Give me Big Sam's football with actual results any day of the week. -

Nah, Bournemouth are much more likely to just throw money at everything that moves like they did last time. -

JDT has already said we'll be fishing in the freebies market this summer. I have a sinking feeling we've just blown it and the gap between us and them is just going to get wider and wider. If teams like Everton and Leicester drop down you can forget going up next year. -

On what basis? We've lost more games than anyone around this part of the league and have an appalling goal difference. There are arguably few teams less deserving at this point.
