G Somerset Rover

Four losses at home already and we’re not even in November. ‘Fortress Ewood’ this season it is not. The ‘if you can’t win, make sure you don’t lose’ philosophy means nothing at Rovers. As with last season, it’s win or bust.

I think we’ve got to trust that Scott Wharton has put his (very) indifferent form behind him, because I’m sure JDT would be loathe to move Hill/JRC given their respective form.

Here’s a moment to relive the one that got away: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/67210275

Very interesting. It’s like those saying that Coventry were ridiculously fortunate to win last night. On another day we take a point - but let’s not forget they still hit the woodwork 3-4 times. I’m very concerned personally.

Indeed. Seen a few folk on Twitter saying we're "too good to go down". Our form over the past 25(?) matches would suggest we are in for a real dog fight. Some folk are going to be in for a rough few months if they're suddenly expecting us to find the net with real regularity and keep it tight at the back consistently.

This is where some experience would have come in bloody handy. We’re looking like we’ll need to be reliant on kids in a dog fight. Thank you Venky’s once again.

This thread is going to go bonkers if we lose on Saturday.

Gregg ‘really happy with the transfer window’ Broughton.

5 defeats in 6 too. Hideous. As I say, absolutely massive game on Saturday against QPR. Fail to win that and I think we all need to be bloody concerned.

Of course. We are so bloody soft. Our horrendous run goes on. Six pointer on Saturday it is then.

JDT talked all summer about needing a proven goalscorer, and we didn’t get him one. Team of kids. Waggott said staying in the league is our aim. Sutton quite rightly said that simply isn’t good enough.

Sutton summing things up perfectly.

As much as I think JDTs football right now is suicidal, it’s hard to disagree. We have no leaders, no experience, no height, no strikers. A bunch of kids effectively. But hey, it’s what the owners want.

Pathetic. Hang your heads lads, and JDT.

Can this ref do us a favour and send Carter off please.

It’s not just on Leo, we haven’t tracked their runners all afternoon. They’ve had the freedom of Ewood on the break.

Leo that’s pretty poor son. This is now embarrassing. We are so, so poor defensively. We cannot stop shipping goals for fun; I don’t know about anyone else but I’m very concerned.

Three home defeats in five and conceding goals for fun. Coventry away next. If QPR beat us next weekend then we should all be very concerned.

Coventry away next where I’ll wager we’ll lose once again. 6 pointer against QPR next weekend then!

Pen Leicester. 3-1 as I said. All very predictable.

Jesus Christ Travis, how did you miss that?!

This will be 3-1, I’m convinced. JDT still not fancying Semir when we’re this desperate speaks volumes.

Pears will surely have to come off here. Would never wish an injury on anyone but he needs a spell out of the side. Huge chance for Leo if so.

Our corner routines nearly irritate me as much as seeing Pears on the team sheet every week. Embarrassingly bad.

Carter’s form is very concerning. Throw in Pears being invisible and little protection from the midfield and it’s a complete shambles defensively at the moment.
