He might have actually turned us down, Dingle bastard.

Ideally, would like to keep it that way tbh.

Do you wonder if you annoyed someone at Ewood, hence not heard much since the initial revelation?

*ahem* WE HAVEN’T PAID £7M FOR BRERETON.

When you were saying ‘70% done’, what did you mean? And any further on that figure?

Sol Campbell: ‘I’d have been England captain if I wasn’t black.’ He played in teams with Paul Ince as captain...

Haven’t we just signed a virtually unheard of Gibraltan?

Hang on, so other clubs never sign duds?

Not sure why SG is underwhelming. Everyone who played under Coyle has massively improved under Mowbray. I think he’ll get a good tune out of Gally.

Gallagher would be a good signing in my book, as the heir apparent to Danny Graham. A striker of CA or BA calibre would be a huge bonus, but I’d rather secure Gallagher if I’m honest.

Dad: ‘When the keeper saw those thighs, the penalty was in before it was kicked.’

Every report said deal ‘could be worth up to £7m’.

We were on TV at least 6 times that I can remember with Gallagher scoring that awesome low volley vs (I think) Wolves.

Mark Atkins used to live on the Jacks Key estate up Bull Hill in Darwen.

Agreed on the first 2, but Givet was a CL finalist from Monaco!

Worst: Orr and/or Murphy vs (I think) Ipswich under Appleton. Best: I have to say Rio Ferdinand vs Man Utd, assisting in our 4-3 victory. Also seem to recall a game where we beat Charlton. Think it was Curbishley’s last game for them as manager and it transpired Nelsen had been playing with a broken leg.

Equally, when I saw your initial next to the bold topic title, I thought Chadster had returned!

After today’s performance, should we play this team next? Raya. Bennett. Rodwell. Lenihan. Bell. Rothwell. Reed. Travis. Armstrong. Dack. Graham.

Motm is a stretch, but he certainly played better than he was before suspension. I think Smallwood focusing on the defensive side would allow Trav more freedom to roam forward looking for the passes. I only say Smallwood because Reed will be right wing though.

Hang on, you mean he’s better than that? First time I saw him last night and I haven’t been so excited about an academy player since Jones’ debut!

First time I’ve seen Travis play. Wow.

Damage was done conceding early really. We matched them up until 90mins, and possibly would’ve won if we hadn’t had a makeshift defence. At least one can in this window please, or start introducing Grayson or Wharton or Magloire (sp?)

Gutting that. 15 mins to get penalties.

Amazed Graham’s lasted the distance tonight. I’d look at gambling Butterworth in the second 15 (if not before).

Really? Didn’t know that.
