Subs: Enckelman, Flitcroft, Stead, Thompson, Douglas Good to see Thompson back. Btw, Pedersen is injured

No I dont have a problem with you, and I guess a sense of humour/irony aint your strong point. Btw, expect to get a bit of stick when you over the last couple of weeks have been criticizeing and acting all hysterical just because MGP havent been given alot of playing time after a couple of months at the club..

Would be a little biased I do believe...

Starting for the reserves today: Drench, Douglas, Taylor, Harkins, Fitzgerald, Bruce, Donnelly, Thompson, Gallagher, Johnson, Pedersen I guess someone will update us on his performace...

Norwich 0 Rovers 4 The game might be shown on Canal +, 2hrs delay though..

Perhaps we should sign Ardian Gashi from Vålerenga as an replacement for Tugay/Flitcroft... What do you think of that herbergeehh?

MGP will get his chance I'm sure. Perhaps we should try to loan him out in January if we aint planning on using him much this season...

Bolton - Newcastle 2 -1

Did Emerton play on the left the whole match?

Lineup today! Friedel Neill, Short, Johansson, McEveley Emerton, Tugay, Ferguson, Reid, Bothroyd, Dickov. Subs: Enckelman, Flitcroft, Stead, Djorkaeff, Todd. Good to see McEveley back, and GREAT to see Matteo is not even on the bench! Would have played Flitty instead of Tugay, and no MGP on the bench today..

hey mate, i hope i don't come across as dissing you cos i'm not... but still, i have to say this... really... HOW COULD U BET AGAINST US?? although i myself have been tempted on numerous occasions... but anyway... hope u lose the 100 today. heh. no hard feelings k. He wants to put himself in a kind of win-win situation, rather than all or nothing.. Nothing wrong with that!

The line up for today should IMO be: Friedel Neill Todd Short Gray Emo Flitcroft Ferguson Pedersen/De Pedro/Djorkaeff Dickov Stead Just DONT play like this Hughes: Friedel Neill Matteo Short Gray Reid Tugay Ferguson Emerton Dickov Djorkaeff

Just face it, we are going to LOSE this one! Last time we beat Liverpool in the Premier Leage was 03/11-1996 when we won 3-0 on Ewood Park. Rovers 1 Liverpool 4 Att: 23 011 Btw, did you know that Rovers have won 5 out of the last 20 matches on Ewood Park? In other words we win 1 out of every 4 games at home (25%), and when did we win last at home game? Against Pompey, and after that we have played 3 home games without winning! WHAT AM I SAYING? The home game against Liverpool is our fourth since we last won, which makes this easy equation: 4 x 25% = 1 which means there is a 100% chance of us beating Liverpool on saturday! You cant argue with statistics, so the result will be: Rovers 2 Liverpool 1 Place your bets folks!

Excatly what I was thinking myself, and I really hope that Hughes aint planning on using Emerton on the left anymore either. At least Souness trew the players who didnt perform out of the starting XI, dont know if Hughes has the balls to do the same.

Agree, but he has to address our problems soon. He can't stick with Emerton on the left anymore, and Matteo or Amoruso in defence. Not sure Djorkaeff should start every game either as I dont think he is "hungry" enough. Bring on Gally! I'm by all means not a fan of Johansson, but I would rather see him along side Short than having to see Matteo or Amorsuo in the blue and white ever again! or Todd

Fixtures till jan: liverpoo 0point norwich 1pts man city 0points brum 3points fulham 0points spurs 1pt palace 0pts everton 0pts newcastle 1pts bolton 1pt 7p out of 30p

no kidding

Dont be upset cuidado, even Ronaldinho would struggle to get into our first XI.

Because Emerton is doing an excellent job on the left, and Reid is a world beater on the right. The amount of crosses from our wingers today was fantastic!

Agree, everyone seems to think that we have a top 6 team on paper, thats RUBBISH! We aint better than Palace, WBA or Norwich in fact, we are worse. We dont have any player who can go past their man, no-one! We dont have pace, we dont have creativity, we are poorly organized, we have no plan in our atticking play, our players dont understand each other, we are crap! Players that IMO have no future at Blackburn Rovers: Matteo - one of the worst defenders of the PL along side Amoruso Amoruso - see above Flitcroft - offers nothing Neill - cant defend Gray - see above

There is NOTING positive to take from this match, we were again very poor and we will go down if we dont use a lot of money in januray. First goal: Matteo was tracking back, why? The guy must have a peanutt of a brain. If Matteo had stood still, Gudjonson would have been offside. Second goal: Poor position by Neill, WHY didnt he see the line of our defense? Third: Hard to tell if it was a penalty or not, but can complain to much. Fourth: It wasnt a corner, but does it matter? 3-0, 4-0 poteto - potato. Other than the goals: We didn't create anyting We didn't defend We were poor, no in fact we were an embarrassment!

I dont blame Hughes, but WHY OH WHY is Emerton playing left wing?

Chelsea 1 Rovers 3 Short (17, 71) Lampard (19) Jansen (90)

Would be very suprised if Tommo came back this season and played more than a couple of games before getting injured again. Its a sad story for Rovers but we seem to have lost two great players in Jansen and Thompson..

Would any of those command and organize our defence? Having said that, I would gladly take any defender over what we got atm... Sign Keown or Desailly
