Does anyone have a spare ticket for this? 🙏🏼 -
v Millwall (a) - 24/10/2023
TruRover replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Proper away win that. Terrible mistake from Leo for the goal, however thought he recovered really well and look assured from there on out. He’s streets ahead of Pears, who would have crumbled. MOTM for me was Dolan, thought he was unreal all night and consistently caused problems. Carter a very close second. Special mention to Britain who produced the real moment of quality in the game. -

I just missed out! As a london based Rovers fan was really looking forward to this - is anyone selling any tickets? -

we’ve exceptional. Can’t believe we haven’t scored. -
v Middlesbrough (h) - 16/09/2023
TruRover replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
personally I think Dolan is better in a central position, either upfront leading the press or alternatively playing off someone. He shouldn’t be starting at the moment either way. I like him a lot but his confident is shot and needs a break. We’re desperate for Siggy to hit the ground running. -
Thanks I’ve just reached out 🤞🏼

Longshot but would anyone have a spare ticket for this? Live in London and my game just got called off so I can now make it

January Transfer Window.
TruRover replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Obrien would be a bonkers signing. Best CM in the league in his day, or at least up there. Cook would be a no from me. I think we’re pretty well stocked with decent CBs, the only one that would be worthwhile brining in would be VanHecke. Any names for the striker? -

Sorry I’ve missed this, but whose the juve lad and what is the link? -

Just a loan is disappointing. However I watched a lot of Thomas last season. He’s quick, works hard and importantly has one of the best deliveries in the league. He can play on the wing or at wingback so will give us further flexibility. Was actually heavily linked with Fulham in the summer. Our seemingly reliance on loans this windows is disappointing. -

Was one of the best players in the league last season. Would be a top addition but I highly highly doubt he’s coming here -

Think people are being very harsh on our summer window here. Remember JDT and Greg were starting behind due to when they came in - for sure not ever signing has gone to plan but there’s lots to be positive about. Hirst:0/10 terrible signing and the major failing of the summer. Loan which has been cut short so not to much downside Mola: 3/10 was always coming in as a squad player, hasn’t made much of an impact aside from a couple of strong performances. But was a cheap loan so hasn’t been to much downside Morton: 7/10 our fans seem pretty split on him, however he’s clearly a good player who puts in the graft aswell as having quality on the ball. Has made some costly mistakes (eg Wigan away) but that’s normal for a young player. My only issue with him is that he has slightly blocked Garrett and Wharton. Brittain: 7/10 one of our best players when he’s fit. Great at both RB and Wing back and has the potential to be the best fullback in the league when he is injury free. No doubt in my mind that this will be great longterm signing for us - injury’s have been the only drawback so far. Smozdicks: 5/10 no doubt we over paid by about 1m. However he’s scored and assisted in some crucial moments, popular in the dressing room, fits JDT style and is a good squad player. You can trust him to do the job. Lacks the quality that the price tag may suggest he should have Hyam: 10/10 best CB I have seen at Rovers in a long time (perhaps on par with JPVH), always fit and never makes mistakes. Bargain Id probs give the window and overall 6/10 which considering the cards JDT and GB were dealt is a good effort. There won’t be any excuses this month and next summer though and we will need 8/10 windows if we are to be promoted anytime soon. Targets have got to be a ST and CM this window. While a winger should also be on the radar with Diaz off in the summer. +if there is an opportunity for Van Hecke we need to make that happen. Him and Hyam would walk this league. -

Have we even been linked to a player yet? -

Have we actually been linked with anyone? A fullback, CM and striker to replace Hirst would be my targets -

Was on the upper tier and saw a man probs in late 60s/70s have to be taken away with blood pouring down his face. Didn’t look good. -

Just seen you can no longer get tickets on the website, I assume you can still buy tickets over the phone and pick up at the ground? -
v Sunderland (h) 18/10/2022
TruRover replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Really need to break the streak tonight, honestly I couldn’t bare to lose to TM esp at home… In general I feel it’s been a great start to the season. Sure we’ve been very inconsistent, sure a number of the away performances have been shocking (I’ve been to 3). However, the home form as been excellent, young players are breaking through, the players are clearly onboard with it (Dack aside) and there have been periods where it’s clear to see the identity of how we want to play, and how it can be effective. We’ve lacked that for years. Tomasson needs to learn, no doubt about it, but in general I feel he has been a breath of fresh air since he came in. I would go with: kaminski carter Hyam Wharton Brittain Morton Garrett Wharton Pickering Gally Diaz 3-5-2/5-3-2 Garrett imo is the like for like replacement for Travis. -
Transfer Window - COMPLETE. Where’s Gregg?

What do we know about mola? Anyone got a tactical analysis of him? -
v Bristol City (h) - 3/9/22
TruRover replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Difficult game this, though no reason why we can’t win it. Doubt we will see Ayala, Brittain or Gally, however I believe Wharton is back for this. If he is, I would match their system. Kaminski Carter Hyam Wharton Buckley Travis Wharton Pickering Hedges Dack Diaz Quite harsh on Morton however while Travis is capable at RB I feel he would be out of depth at wing back. Buckley on the other hand is very capable of that role. Part of me would love to see Hirst from the start with Hedges Dack and Diaz playing off him, I just feel we will need to match there system though to get 3 points. -

TruRover replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Apologies, no info. I just can’t see it, would be too good of a signing. Also, didn’t Sharpe say there was nothing in it -
