If we win next two home games we could be in spitting distance of play off positions. Not expecting promotion this season but the further up the league makes us all happy. Ipswich to start with will be difficult after last nights long game so its up to Mowbray and his back room staff to earn their pay and rest/recover/refresh the lads as per their individual requirements. Dack wasn't 100% anyway, Graham needs wrapping in cotton wool, Mulgrew may not be ready yet and Reed may not be right.

Raya tweeted saying he'd had a few stitches on his eyebrow.

OMG!!!

PLEASE HOLD ON!!!!!

Tugay is the player that stays in my mind. There are many memories be it the long walk he made from Riverside when substituted, the outstanding goal from a corner, the Ewood sound "....Tugay, you are my Turkish delight....." or even just word going round ground that he was in BBN End hospitality.

Agree with your comments. My questions for TM: - Why have you delayed playing Travis? - Have you had a word with Bell yet about his lack of attempt to prevent crosses? Its happening every week?

VAR??

Annoying - we cannot hold a lead, recent history shows.

Hanley off (red) at Norwich v Portsmouth

Recall TM saying Dack wasn't going anywhere in January transfer - having said that money will do the talking.

I was meaning in a positional sense they were standing their ground preventing keeper from moving.

Charlie's corner kick was excellent with Dack & Graham legally holding defenders and keeper towards nearside post while ball bent into goal. Something they work at when training according to TM. Relief to see we can still hold onto a 2 1 lead.

Expect more concerns after today's game. As supporters we can speculate as to what, if anything, the transfer window will bring, but for the players what impact will it have on their game? Innocent Rodriguez will rise to the occasion.

I'd also ask Bell why he allowed the cross in the first place, given that there was only seconds remaining. He provided no opposition not even close. A complete lack of ability, loss of concentration (as was Raya v Birmingham - does TM not mention the importance of closing a game down???). Had he held the player we would have come away with a draw. Seconds left Bell what on earth was you thinking about?

Neither be surprised if we are 2 1 up then give it away in last minutes.

Credit the support at Leeds today. You were fantastic!

As the chap on radio lancs said (by the way he supports another club close to home) its not just coincidence that Rovers concede late goals.

Said before Mowbray's not good enough. Truth has been out before today but he's too nice with the players that are close to him. We need a manager who discipline players. Thanks for getting us up Tony but it's time to go.

Good to see Nuttall on the bench.

Love us to get the double over Leeds. Its Boxing Day - strange results have been know.

Overall we played to the best of our ability and Graham was outstanding. Sadly my mind is made up about Brereton. Don't want to see him again. Norwich are good but on another day we could have won. Couple of outstanding saves from Raya was good to see, maybe he had last week on his mind. Ref was poor in first half for not playing advantage and one poor decision when their defender clearly dived. Reception for Jordan Rhodes was outstanding.

Said leaving the ground that daft decision by our keeper will stick in my mind for a long time. Mowbray said he can't be too hard on him, not sure what he means because you'd expect your boss coming down hard on you for crazy decision that was not needed. As a manager he will apply his own style but Raya's card marked. That's football as we all know.

The lads an investment and preventing him full 90 minutes game time could be damaging his development. Not been to many u23s this season but would love to see what he can offer from the start of game albeit at a lower level.

Why does Brereton not play in U23?
