    Correct!
  2. LeftWinger
    Paul Cooke was actually very complimentary about Rovers and pointed to the injury list. Very rare from that bellend. After Tony's job?
  3. LeftWinger
    Both correct.
  4. LeftWinger
    Crafty tactics by Warnock to put this sign on the half way line at half time.
  5. LeftWinger
    Any truth in the fact that Bettinelli was furloughed at half time? Not sure I actually saw him in the second half.

    How many of these 20 'obscure' Rovers players can you name? Some of them are more difficult than others. 1) Jimmy Corbett 2) Hakan Unsal 3) Dario Marcolin 4) Oumar Konde 5) Dino Baggio 6) Niklas Gudmundsson 7) Per Pedersen 8.) Kaba Diawara 9) James Thomas 10) Adam Reed 11) Anders Andersson 12) David Yelldell 13) Javi De Pedro 14) Bruno Berner 15) Maceo Rigters 16) Lars Jacobsen 17) Elrio Van Heerden 18) Herold Goulon 19) Edinho Jr 20) Sacha Petshi

    I've dated women like that.

    There were only 6 players that got more assists than him in the Championship last season. ** This may actually be out of date, this statistic was from July.

    I think he did alright at Stoke before going off towards the end when he got sacked. But he was fired from his last job over two years ago (Southampton), where he had a win percentage of 18.5% in 27 games. He was also pretty poor at QPR where he lost 58.8% of his 34 games. I'd still take him back though.
  10. LeftWinger
    Absolutely correct. He was one of our best players for the most part of last season. In fact he'd have been a strong contender for our player of the year before lockdown and the form of Armstrong. He's an absolute professional as well, so he'll probably be fitter than most of our squad even at his age. He can cover a few positions and we are struggling somewhat with numbers. No brainer of a signing for me, we must be able to afford whatever he is on.

    I'd definitely take him back, even though his record has been fairly mixed (and I'm probably being polite there) since he left Rovers. City had just come into money when he went there, it was a good move for him. According to that article on wikipedia we also got a world record compensation fee for a manager at the time.
  12. LeftWinger
    Some proper players there. Certainly some bite in that side.
  13. LeftWinger
    This from Wikipedia sums it up nicely.... During his spell in charge of Blackburn, Hughes' side was accused of being "over-physical" and "dirty" on multiple occasions[37][38][39] and the club finished bottom of the Premier League disciplinary table in all four of Hughes' seasons in charge. No-one enjoyed playing us. We were good to watch, but were always fiery and aggressive. I enjoyed that style.

    I was just looking at our record this season with/without certain players. This one was a shocker: With Ryan Nyambe: P6 W0 D1 L5 Without Ryan Nyambe: P5 W4 D0 L1
  15. LeftWinger
    I'm pretty sure it was confirmed on here by a poster that it was Lenihan.
  16. LeftWinger
    I'd go with this: Nyambe Lenihan Williams Douglas JRC Trybull Holtby Elliot Armstrong Brereton Dolan Might as well not bother with a keeper if the last game is anything to go by.
  17. LeftWinger
    At least you can imagine him getting 15 goals in a season, as it appears you've dreamt about him scoring 17 in a season. Did you even watch our relegation season? ?
  18. LeftWinger
    I'm not Gallagher's biggest fan - but he's actually scored a goal every 58 minutes on the pitch over his last 6 appearances. 173 minutes / 3 goals.
  19. LeftWinger
    I think someone said it expires in the summer of 2022. I wouldn't be rushing to sign a new one if I was him.
  20. LeftWinger
    I was just looking at this page on the BBC website for top assisters in the Championship. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/championship/top-scorers/assists It's only got Brereton as having 2 assists, so must not count the penalty he won and the one that hit the post for Dolan to score. His other stats make for pretty impressive reading though. It suggests he's created 12 chances - only one other player on the list had created more (Buendia at Norwich). There's only one other player with a higher pass completion rate than him on the list as well. Harvey Elliot is also doing very well on the list considering he's only played 3 games as well.

    Agree. I was just thinking last night that he scores all kinds of goals other than headers. Then he goes and scores a header. His goal scoring highlight reel is very impressive. Scores with both feet, blasted finishes, dinked finishes, lobs, strikes from distance, instinctive finishes, curled finishes. I probably wasn't his biggest fan 18 months ago, but he's flourished since Dack has been injured. Definitely our most valuable asset now, especially after Dack's injury.
  22. LeftWinger
    Absolutely. 21 goals this calendar year now. There was a stat not too long ago saying he'd been involved in more goals in 2020 than any other player in the English league. I'm assuming this is still the case.

    We were after Zidane in 1995 and signed Matty Holmes. I'm judging our recruitment on the signing of Holmes as opposed to the interest in Zidane.
  24. LeftWinger
    Brentford always seem to get their recruitment spot on.

    I was a big fan of Samba. He was on that Soccer AM Pro Am thing not too long back. First attempt at a volley he completely fluffed. Second one he absolutely smashed it home. Also finished a one on one by taking it round the keeper. Very underrated on the ball for me. Watch 2.20 - 2.50 to see his awful volley followed by his belting one.
