I remember Ron Atkinson saying “look at this lad here , he gets the ball and sold him a lollipop “” after someone did a step over trick/skill clough and Atkinson alone could have a 200 page book out with there quotes. All brilliant ?

Worst Rovers signing ever?
Oldgregg86 replied to bigbrandjohn's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I wrote the guy a letter when I was in primary school wishing his mum well because she had cancer and he replied with a hand written letter thanking me for my support wishing my family good health and sent signed photos of the whole squad . He was a top bloke, as you say, just out of his depth and after some of the arseholes in the game living mansions with gold toilets and smashing Ferrari’s up I’m happy he made a good life for himself. I get the same feeling watching Elliot Bennett. -

In an ideal world I’d sell Armstrong and make the team better with the funds . As that would never happen it’s a no brainer not to sell him. However I think 10 million is a very generous offer if it is him.

All of the above and you can throw in koita, petshi, delfonso, Steele, ward, Sam hart, Jeffers, Fowler, Guthrie , tunnicliffe, Marrow, Samuelson, Harper , slew and I’m going to be on my own with this but Cory evans. anthony stokes has to be in there also. Had ability didn’t use any of it. Also just remembered Tony watt watt watt. Shouldn’t be on this list just made chuckle thinking about the game away at Oxford -
Liverpool have some wonderful players who are easily good enough to start on our team . Curtis Jones stood out and rhian Brewster has already proved what he can do at this level. Top signing and pushed the into the playoffs . suerly we can attract some REAL quality like Brewster from some of the big 6, 8 or whatever it is these days. menrioned Paris maghoma after seeing 90 minutes of him and he has class, now gone to brentford, another I raved about after one appearance at leyland, Hudson odio, he’s not doing badly in the first team and Ethan ampadu is on loan and will soon be a first team player at Chelsea. Another two players who stuck out after 90 minutes at leyland where are all our scouts and contacts. I could tell after 45 minutes these lads where good enough and I have a lazy eye ?

Championship season 2019-20

I watched it and get what your saying. They really are a joy to watch . Fulham were to. I’d love Mowbray to develop the same system and bring attacking attractive football to ewood. If I saw any shoots that we were heading in that direction even at a snails pace I would back him fully. Sadly I just don’t see it or believe he is capable of doing it -
Who ampadu. Loan or permanent . Fabulous signing for them if true
-
Remember a lad playing for spurs u23s at leyland last year but he was called Paris magohma and was a skilful quick attacking player but stood out on the day. don’t know how possible this would be , not very would be my guess. But there’s a big cb at Chelsea called Ethan ampadu who I rate highly . Think he went on loan least season in Holland or Belgium but if Chelsea want to let him gain more experience what better place than the championship in a team like rovers . Would easily be the best defender at the club if he came

Why were all making stuff up how about rice to a big four club, Reed to West Ham or back at saints and travis to Fulham
-
Just about to say the same. Nice one Alejandro
-
No one bigs travis up more than me, he is imo our player of the season and will only get better and better but I think he’s quite a way behind Harrison reed never mind players like rice. As for Leninhan he won’t get a double figure move From rovers as long as I Have a hole in my arse and he’s another I rate for us. It would cost us 10 million and lenihan for a bid to even be considered for O’Connell not the other way round

Pre-Season
Oldgregg86 replied to Hoochie Bloochie Mama's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I don’t know or look at stats but it seems we struggle more against the perceived lower, less attractive /footballing teams. I don’t know if this is down to expectations more than anything. When you expect or should be beating teams and don’t they stand out more than say a win against Bristol city if that makes sense. I haven’t looked at the stats in other posts so I might be talking shite ?? -
I agree. Abit like that daft farker at Norwich this year ?
-
Completely agree about Johnson of old. the only player I really remember seeing and thinking he stood out a mile I.e single handed performance that ruined us was Henry at ewood and robben at Stamford bridge . There’s probably more but they are the two that always spring to mind

He did it to Armstrong for nearly two years and your right there will be many more. Gallagher is the main one suffering now . bowyer did it with cairney and king. It was obvious to most then they were being utilised wrong -

Fulham an absolute joy to watch . Superb goal. Harrison reed having an absolute blinder. Easily man of the match. Hector with a goal saving tackle was equally enjoyable as the goal. a Cardiff player slid in two footed , didn’t get the ball, got the man, studs showing and didn’t get booked. Far worse challenge than the Brentford lad last night -
You also have to factor in the players being left out and the pressure they will put on pep aswell as the owners . They really do have to be top draw. Although if it was a choice between sancho and mahrez then I’d go sancho so doesn’t always pay off. It can be just as difficult trying to manage clubs with huge budgets and quality players for different reasons that’s why I won’t have people down play the work peps done or mourinho or our own kenny.
-
That’s a fair comment tbf. They did play cup games aswell and a few champions league but I suppose im looking at it a different way but agreeing with your point. To give any of those guys game time when you have the players and depth they have is commendable but if the likes of sancho can’t get a game then tosin will struggle .
