What did I miss? Definately agree on lack of luck, I thought we were much the better side 1st half, poor postioning by the linesman cost us a goal. If.he had been in line with the front line he would have seen Dack was inline with Hutton. Whatever happened to the doubt going to the attacker. I also thought we.matched Villa 2nd.half until they went behind and we.got our usual eeby geebies about attacking. Bitterly disappointed.we.did not win that. I predicted a 3-1 reverse so I should be happy with the point but we have an uncanny knack of making draws feel like defeats.

I had Andrews flash backs too.

Great free kick, but shiuldnit have been and why is Reed risking it anyway. As soon as the ref gave it I knew they would score. Absolute quality free kick though. 2 poor decisions (imho) and another 2 points lost to officials. I know I know, it will even itself out blah blah etc etc, never seems to for us though. Brereton? mmmmm two cameos and if there has been a flash of potential I have missed it. How long is he gonna get before fans are on his arse.

1st game after the break, I get to watch it on ESPN+, Villa been struggling a bit. Get.your.money on an away win, possinly a handsome one. 3-1 to the original clarrot and blues.

Twitter, never done it.

I don't care for Samuel at all but you have to respect the fact that he was trying to give it a right good go. Putting in the extra effort over summer shiwed he at least wants it. Fell sorry for him that he did not get a chance to see if his extra effort wiuld have paid off.

A great man management style, make it clear to everyone, as long as we don't lose too many games in the meantime. Sometimes you just have to be a bit ruthless.

Interesting reading the squabbling about over positive oosting and all negative posting. Majirity in here seem ti like a moan, enjoy criticising. Great win against a fancied team, 19 pages of posts. Lose against a decent outfit 36 pages and counting. Sums it up nicely for me. Something of a moot oiint but is not their 4th offside?

Most? ALL successful teams score more than the opposition. I just thought it was a funny statement.

I know. What a silly notion. Really?

Funny that.

Our finishing. If we do not get to be more clinical we are going to keep losing games. Better finushing and we would be looking at 6 more points in the board. I only listened to the game but it did not sound like the thumping it was. Had we taken our chances and nit had the obligatory refereeing assist for Bristol this thread would have a lot less posts and we would be talking play offs. Dumbfounded Rothwell did not get a start. Mowbary himself talks about earning and playing to keep the shirt. Well I think Smallwood has not done enough to keep it and Rothwell has done enough to take it. Better finishing, cut out individual errors and we will do as Pardon says. Keep squandering chances and gifting opportunities and it will be a struggle. On a side note. Anyone else listen to Ifollow that.did not like the bloke doing the commentary. I hope this was a temporary change only.

Oh Stuart, your point is valid and correct but your numbers? I can't see that we would double our sales, Premier league ST for 200 we might. However apples to apples, I doubt 200 would encourage even a 50% increase. Sadly the mind set at Rovers is that we have appx 10k hardcore fans who will plonk their hard earned on a ST so let's fleece THEM for as much as we can.

One has to wonder if the decision to make mid week games away thise games in which travel is most difficult was not a pre cursor to help the tv company.

Wish I had the option of using a red button, oh wait I do but it's St Louis Cardinals not Blackburn Rovers.

But will we wax lyrical about his performances?

Mmmmm? Just watched his interview on Ifollow. I hear the words coming out of his mouth but his facial expressions and body language indicate otherwise. Talk abiut a forced smile, he just does not look too happy. Hopefully he is just exhausted from last few days events. Welcome young man and good luck. Do your best.

I know it was only a friendly but the two against Everton are two of my favourite in recent memory. First for how he made them.look foolish and then for how they just bounced off him was memorable indeed. Loved it.

Yup, you are right.

I think I mentioned on here there wiuld be some interest in Dack come January shiuld he perform well at this level. It's inevitable, good player. However the Foxes link is just Nixon mischief making. He does like to stir the pot with us.

Nuttall yes, if not permanent. Travis I think should stay here and be in and around the squad.

He agreed that some fans like a scapegoat not that Raya is a scapegoat, but hey don't let that stop you having a pop.

Can't help but feel the Brereton thing is dead. Time to move on.

Not sure chadster started the scapegoat thing.

Samuel on, goodnight.
