As an aside I suspect the Trav to Saints rumours is rubbish. His passing ability would get found out within 5 mins in that side.

I was hanging fire to make a prediction until we had brought in a centre forward as I think it's that important and would be the difference maker. Given thats looking very unlikely to happen anytime soon - if at all - here we are. I had genuine optimism that we'd get play-offs at the start of July after our decent start to the transfer window. A month on however and I have big concerns about the forthcoming campaign. I fear we're a JDT-walking (looking increasingly likely) or a few injuries to key players away from imploding this season. Heart says mid-table, head is beginning to think we could be in for a dog fight.

You’d like to think they would be thinking, this is more hassle than it’s worth for us now. But alas the five year shirt deal etc. would firmly suggest not.

Indeed. Barring any minor miracles, that’s what we’ll be lining up with next weekend against WBA too. Frightening.

It’d be for one season too as he’s going to be joining Madrid next summer. Insane.

Haven’t seen anything. He’s probably thinking there’s bugger all to say that he’s not said since last season. Basically: ‘we need some fucking goals’.

We’ll be seeing this a lot with that front three.

Didn’t some guy on here post this exact thing a couple of weeks ago?

Ominous with Ennis given what Plymouth fans have said.

2-0. Sounds like S Wharton has continued where he left off from last season in making a big error everytime he’s on the pitch.

Going to be a recurring question over the next few weeks unless someone is brought in.

Leeds feel like a side that will either run away with promotion, or won’t even make the play-offs.

City’s ‘B team’ would probably be top 3.

Or Glen. No offence, Glen!

Are you surprised Wharton didn’t make the squad? I guess he’s been with the england under 19s, but still, he looks to have some of the best experience in comparison (granted likes of Scott).

Yep. Their entitled fans could do with a few years in the wilderness.

I believe Bellingham's Dad is connected to Sunderland's sporting director and a coach who moved from Brum. So yep, doubt he's had any say in this.

Sunderland already splashing the cash - £3m on Jude’s brother, Jobe Bellingham. Brum fans seem gutted, can’t say I’ve seen too much of him.

Interesting that his ‘goodbye message’ on the official rovers site thanks JDT, but in his Instagram post he says he felt he didn’t get enough chances, with no mention of JDT (TM gets a big thanks). All the best Dacky, thanks for some great memories.

Fair play to Pears; didn’t let us down and has earned a new deal. That being said, IMO Kaminski is the better keeper and I fear this is another cost saving exercise by the club to get TK out and promote from within / on the cheap.

The most Blackburn rovers result if there ever was one. We finally, finally come back to win a game of football - and in that style - and still it matters not.

Seeing Mowbray in the play-offs, let alone premier league, is going to take some getting over.

How in Gods name did we not take the lead then.

FFS we’re teeing Mowbray up for the play-offs aren’t we.

Always rated Brereton Diaz. Never said a bad word about him.
