v Millwall (h) - 8/3/22
G Somerset Rover replied to Uddersfelt Blue's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Indeed. How many more times can we keep saying "a point is okay"?! We need to start winning football matches, particularly against the teams just below us in the table. Must win tonight. -

It was only 2-3 weeks ago that Hedges was "the best player in training". Chats some waffle does Mowbray. If he'd had his way, Harrison Reed would still be "learning what is asked of him in the Rovers set-up" instead of dominating midfields at Fulham. -

G Somerset Rover replied to Uddersfelt Blue's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Spot on. None of this ‘it’s not a bad point’ b*llocks if it happens (or worse) tonight. We need to win. -
Word is that Dack came through 90 mins against Salford today in a behind closed doors match, scoring twice and assisting the other in a 3-2 win. Got to get him back on the bench for Saturday.

That's a huge miss. Without BBD he and Rothwell are about the only two who could produce something out of nothing. Even more difficult to see where a goal will come from. -

One in seven I’m afraid! I’d call it a ‘goal scoring crisis’ not ‘concerning’ unlike the media and many of our fans on social media. -
Tony Mowbray Discussion
G Somerset Rover replied to Neal's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Mowbray clearly has us punching above expectation this season so deserves some slack but I can’t help but feel he’s getting a very easy ride from fans and the media with this barren goal scoring run. Yes, any team would miss their main goalscorer but to score just 3 times in 11 matches, 1 in the last seven and have no open play goal for 600+ minutes is ridiculously poor. It’s unacceptable but all we get is a shrug of the shoulders, and at best, a Bayes will ask ‘are you concerned by the lack of goals Tony?’. I was told by a ‘fan’ yesterday on Twitter to be happy with one shot on target: ‘what do you expect?’ More than that FFS! Recruitment, or lack of, has played a huge part (and we will likely argue about that for years to come), but Mowbray’s stubbornness to adapt the system, or work on a plan B, has cost us hugely since the turn of the year, and that cost could well be our play-off place. -

No goal from open play in 7 matches either. Got to be another record Tony has smashed right there. -

We clearly won’t catch up them given they have 4 games in hand, but fantastic to see Bournemouth losing. QPR nosediving a bit like us. -

Boro and QPR winning. -

TM on Zeefuik: “Deyo is struggling, he’s on crutches, we’re trying to get a boot on him, he’s struggling quite badly. “He can’t put his foot on the ground.” JRC at RWB for the foreseeable then. A pairing of him and Pickering at LWB has to be the slowest wing backs in the history of football. -

Football‘s a funny game but Bristol City will have won 2 out of 9 after today. I’ve seen enough of them given where I’m based to know they’re pretty dreadful. -

Bristol City are so terrible - down 2-0 at home to Birmingham. If we don’t beat them next Saturday then we don’t deserve to get top six. -

The pressure on Tuesday night is going to be huge come 5pm today. We simply have to win. -
Championship 21/22
G Somerset Rover replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
We are so reliant in these next three matches of: - Nobody dropping a clanger at the back (we dropped two today). If the opposition get just 1, then we’re not winning, as we barely have A goal in us, let alone 2. - Somebody stepping up to score a goal each match. We haven’t scored from open play in 7, and have scored 3 in 11. Barely creating any chances either. I would say even 7 points is extremely optimistic on current evidence. -

Anyone would have thought we peppered their goal if they read this post! Their keeper made one save FFS. Thank God Fulham just decided not to expend any more energy and were content with two. -

Some fella on Twitter telling me to be happy with one shot on target today. ‘What else did I expect?’ The dumbing down across our ‘fan base’ continues. -

ONE shot on target. No goals from open play in seven. We’re not getting the play-offs unless something big changes. And soon. -

G Somerset Rover replied to Proudtobeblue&white's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
You can’t expect to win matches when you don’t create any chances. Apart from the Swansea game (when they had ten men) and a couple of chances against QPR, since the turn of the year we are so poor in the final third. No creativity, no guile, and nobody to stick the ball away. Throw in some blunders at the back and it explains our atrocious form. -

I’d be quite happy to see Mitrovic get sniped from the stands here. Odious tw*t. -

Kaminski is all at sea. Jesus…quite a comical performance from him today. -

He could still have squared it - Sky showed a great angle. At least we’ve had a shot on target though. Progress. -

Can we claim that as a shot?
