The GK not our former man who is banging them in for Athletico Madrid(!). -
Rovers V Norwich 22/12/18
G Somerset Rover replied to Bigdoggsteel's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Think we’ll come unstuck here. Thought they’d perhaps been getting a tad lucky given their team on paper, but I’ve watched them a few times now and they’re a very decent side. Can see us losing 2-1. Like Tomphil says, wouldn’t surprise me to see Rhodes coming off the bench and bagging a late winner. -
76 pages already. How many will we be on when he starts his first league game? Or dare I say it, bags his first goal?

Seems a load of bunkum, but as I’ve posted before they have been heavily watching him: http://www.kumb.com/story.php?id=133103

Talked about ‘home’ alot ie the south. Will take some persuasion I would imagine.

Nuttall’s not going to suddenly come into the side - just can’t see it. If TM isn’t going to feature he nor Travis then get them out to clubs who will actually play them and watch them develop. Travis is too good not to make the #11 of any league one side. -

Do you know what, I did know. Completely forgot we had them in the Cup and thought you were somehow referencing Norwich this coming weekend ?. -

I’d agree with that having seen the series now. They didn’t elaborate on what, if anything, they were offering Rodwell as a parting deal. Just expecting him to walk away from his £70k pw wages. Who on earth would have done that? The board/owner needed a couple of scapegoats to alleviate their role in this and he seems to be the chief one from the playing side at least. -
Getting fed up with those on here moaning about ‘Ben bashing’ or whatever they’re calling it. It’s been said a million times over already, so it really shouldn’t need saying again, but it’s not what this is about. It’s because we have so many glaring weaknesses in our team that we shouldn’t have shelled out £7 million on potential. That’s the crux of it. If we had a bottomless pit I’m sure we’d all be thrilled with bringing in a young lad who could one day make a name for himself. As it stands, and at no fault of Ben’s, this is looking to be a very baffling and costly signing.

Fair do’s to the man coughing up the necessary £10+ million that it would likely take to get either. -

How the heck are we affording Maupay or Adams? -

Rodwell is getting crucified on Twitter by their fans so he can’t have painted himself in glory on the doc (I’ve just started it so can’t comment). He seems to have disappeared from our squad after the initial positivity surrounding the odd cameo (forgetting his last CB performance). Can’t see him staying around if I had to call it right now. -
For a supposed midfielder when he was younger, Lenihan is dreadful on the ball. Poor first touch and couldn’t pass wind. He’ll never make it at Championship level or above there which is why I’m guessing BR and ROI management see him as a centre half (and before anyone says, yes I agree his form has been terrible this season there).

Would love to know what our scouts saw in Bell. I can’t imagine he was exactly Roberto Carlos at Fleetwood. -

CF, CB, CM, 2 x FB’s, 2 x wingers/inside forwards, GK to challenge Raya as #1. Fair bit for TM to do if we’re really going to kick on. -
Surely? The mentality of the boys (and I say that purposefully) and management just isn’t right when ahead in matches. We’re all sick and tired of it. If TM believes it to be solely a player issue (which I don’t) then he needs to rectify it in the transfer window instead of spunking what little budget we do have, on potential.
-
So effing predictable it’s untrue. How many do we need to be clear by before we can see out matches? 4 maybe? Lenihan, Smallwood, Bell, Nyambe and Raya (obviously) all poor for me. Fuming. And please for the love of God can no wally come on here saying ‘I’d have taken a point before the match kicked off.’
