G Somerset Rover

2-0 Fulham. As I’ve said, I think they’ll be out of sight before too long! 2nd is anyone’s though.

Peter O'Rourke now saying us and Swansea are in for O'Riley. He's usually not far off. Pete O'Rourke@SportsPeteO 1h Swansea City and Blackburn Rovers are stepping up their pursuit of MK Dons midfielder Matt O’Riley. #SwanseaCity #Rovers #MKDons

May have been mentioned but I reckon the Markanday deal will be announced tomorrow, after our under 23s have played the team he should have been playing for.

Nothing better than seeing Spurs fans p*ssed off!

Agreed. I’m not against signing this O’Riley lad from MK Dons - he looks a fantastic talent. But for me we need a 3-4 years younger Bradley Johnson to compete with our midfield options - particularly Travis. A ‘man’ who ideally has experience of getting out of this league. We have a very young side who will very likely need some help on the field as the games go on and the tension really kicks in.

Thankfully we’ve had 24 hours on them to plan for Wednesday. TM’s team talk really should be done for him for this one.

I hope Butterworth gets a decent loan move - I really like the lad. Reckon he could do some damage in L1.

I'm calling it now. Rovers Twitter account: 39 mins: Rankin-Costello cannot continue. Johnson is coming on in his place with Buckley moving to right wing back.

Hull 2-0 down to Stoke at home. They look bloody awful. Great chance not only for 3 points but to get our good performances back on track too. They deserve a pasting off us.

Who plays instead though? I agree a CM is needed this month.

QPR, Boro and Forest all flying. Next Monday at home to Boro looking like a big game.

They just won’t stop winning will they?! Would imagine WBA will pot their manager soon.

Got a full 24 hours rest on these mugs too. God I hope we do them.

Fulham smash in another 6 now. They’re just ridiculous and a cut above when they want it.

QPR WBA 0-0 too. Be great if both matches end like that.

I think we’d all take Maya Jama on loan to be fair, Neo.

2022 - rebirth of Ben Brereton? Lets hope he can rediscover the Diaz again soon.

I’ve said before but IMO we need to stop worrying about them - they’ll open up some space between themselves and the chasing pack soon. Bournemouth on the other hand I think we can finish above. Parker is a poor manager.

Very muted celebration from him (hopefully just the lack of fans). Pay him what he wants FFS.

Hamstring injury I’ve read.

He’s been linked to Brighton and Atalanta for £20 million. Not a chance!

Their home form is terrible and they’re without their talisman Moore, so no excuses. Let’s get the job done today lads. And I think we will: Cardiff 0 Rovers 2 COYB

That’s about the best of the bunch, well done! I saw Frenkie De Jong is mates with him and only just realised he was schooled at Ajax, which is obviously one of the best youth set ups you can come through. Looking forward to seeing him in a Rovers shirt.

AND if Sharpe is to be believed, we then want another striker too! Gotta hope to God BBD is here until the summer at least. Butterworth will surely be out on loan. Hard to see Dolan getting much of a kick too.

I mean…so far it represents a solid start but I wouldn’t class a window like that as ‘beyond any of our expectations’ given the opportunity at hand.
