  1. What a barnstormer for Rovers, dug deep and found the bit of magic to give us all 3 points. The team is just tinkering by grinding out results of late. This had banana skin written all over it, and TM and his boys sidestepped it. Kudos. Review and more.
  2. Bit of positivity for Rovers heading into our Valentines Day fixture against Charlton Athletic. We owes these guys for their cheeky win on opening day. Despite the good spirits we all find ourselves in, this is a very LOSEABLE match. So we need to have a bit of lady luck on this weekend of luuuurveee.
  3. Wow! What was that final 20 minutes? Chuffed to bits to see Big Dom back on the scoresheet again... long time coming. Also, make sure we wrap Armstrong in cotton wool... he is a HUGE threat for any championship club, and we need him in red hot form if we want to stand any chance of squeaking into "THAT SHALL NOT BE NAMED". Massive result, needed that on a cold and shitty night in Lancashire. LOVE IT! Match review and words from the gaffa.
  4. Still a huge month is February - and I feel we need a response from the lads after our defensive display against Fulham the other day. We lacked any desire to try and play positive football. Injuries or not, Hull City are wobbling and we need a win and preferably one that gets the strikers scoring goals. Not sure how we will line up after the new of JRC's injury. Fingers crossed for the result - build up starts now.
  5. Referee has mugged us off... scratched off a complete 100% legal goal! However in all honesty I was not expecting too much from this one, but having digested the performance for a few hours I am little concerned at how we will perform for Tuesday night which is a must win game if we want to remain in the playoff discussion. Thoughts from the gaffa, the fans and more.
  6. Been a tough few days for Rovers losing Holtby for the season. Options getting a wee bit thin for us. What are folks expecting? Change of formation? Who do you think has the most to gain from the injuries. Whatever happens, I am hopeful we can continue our unbeaten run and would gladly take 4 points from the next two matches.
  7. Awesome f̶o̶u̶r̶s̶o̶m̶e̶... fivesome by Rovers today. Not sure where that came from or if we will see anything like that again this decade. Nice to get a win under our belts in 2020, now a short mini break to refresh regroup and go again vs QPR. Nyambe IS class!
  8. Always a tough one to predict this, but despite their past 2 results (1 against Leeds the other in the cup) their form is pretty woeful. Our injuries at the moment giving both me and the gaffa plenty of headaches. Hoping for a positive window, perhaps next week we will see some activity seeing as we have an "off week". Need a win, this weekend would be great.
  9. 2 points dropped for Rovers. time to mix it up formation wise. Play to our strengths, also need more bodies specifically in defense, and out wide. If we can find a winger we can start to play our forwards as strikers. Consolidation season now. Dack aint going anywhere over the next 18 months, regroup, rebuild, and plan for 2020-2021.
  10. Think we all deserve a drink after that week - chuffed to the heavens! Cracking performance, life after Dack might not be half bad... whenever that time comes. Well oiled machine out there, massive credit to Nyambe (Rovers academy), Travis (Rovers academy) and Lenihan (Rovers Academy) for today... shit hot! Thoughts from the Gaffa, the fans and more.
  11. 3 wins on the spin?!?! Blackburn Rovers? Get out of here! Nope its true. Lets hope this fortune continues into December and maybe (just once) we can have a cracking (no pun intended) Christmas period. Thoughts from the Gaffa, the fans and more.
  12. Will Barnsley’s new manager give the club a much needed bounce this weekend? Or can we give the new coach a rude awakening to life in the Championship? Hoping to see the like of Lenihan and William back in defense and an attack we have been waiting to see all season. Season starts now, plenty of points on offer.
  13. What are people expecting this weekend against high flyers Leeds United? Anyone actually think we will get ANYTHING from this match or are we pissing in the wind? We have a performance in us, somewhere, will it surface this weekend? What a tonic it would be to spring a shock before the international break. Who’s with me?
  14. Wam Bam Thank You Mam! I DID NOT SEE THAT COMING! Massive result on so many levels. For the team, the manager and the fans. Gonna be honest, didnt think we did enough to win this one, but on the same note, we definitely didnt deserve too lose. However time and time again I have seen us not responded strong enough when conceding so late, so I will gladly take these points. Now! Any chance we can do something special against Leeds?
  15. Two massive games for the Gaffa, pick up 4 points (or more here) and the fans will be back singing his name. Lose the next two, and the daggers will be sharpened and back out again. Sheff Wed is a winnable game, scored 6 goals past them last year with 4 at Ewood Park. We have been good in 45 minute spurts, but the team needs a performance we have been crying out for all season. Hoping it will happen on Saturday.
  16. It’s the SPOOKY part of the year and our NIGHTMARE bit of form could continue into the month of November. If we play anything like we have done in the last 135 minutes of football then I expect us to be BOOOO’d of the pitch. Hopefully Mowbray can SCARE the shit out of some of these GHOULS. Match build up starts now!
  17. The Mowbray Out brigade are in full force at the moment, and I am not too far behind signing up. If I had any assurances as to who will be his replacement then maybe I can commit… but this is Blackburn Rovers. Nothing is standard anymore. Mowbray has my backing for NOW, but come December when the season takes shape we need to be much more competitive in this division. Chewed on this one for a while, still not over that performance.
  18. Birmingham City (Away) - The one we've all seemingly forgotten about... not me! This is an important week for Rovers as it climax with PNE at their place, who could enter the fixture on Saturday with two defeats on the spin. Hopefully Rovers can enter it with a pring in the step by taking all 3 points against the Brummies on their own patch. The history books will tell you the likely result will be a draw, but I am hoping Mowbrays decision in pulling Holtby and Downing midway through the match against Huddersfield Town be a masterstroke, and they come back fit and ready for both Tuesday night and Saturday. Meanwhile, on Sunday I caught up with Birmingham Fan TV and got their opinion on this match.
  19. We would be top of the league if we played like we did in the first 45 minutes. Anyone know Elliott Wards contact details as its reached that level at the back now. Big week this week, I would take 4 points from the next two if offered today. Meanwhile, thoughts from the Bosnian Rover, a chirpy Huddersfield Town fan and the gaffa... plus me!
  20. Rover back in action this weekend against a Huddersfield Town team on the rise. Our visitors had it rough the first couple of months, but have put in a small unbeaten run and just the wrong time for US. Hoping we can find the winning feeling again this Saturday as we need to start getting more points on the board. Earlier in the week I caught up with both a Huddersfield Town fan and a Blackburn Rovers supporter (from Bosnia).

  21. That was terrible folks... Not looked that clueless in a long time. QPR ripped us apart and they are not that good. Why are we afraid to have a go? Have a crack fellas...! I for one and glad for the break, regroup, refocus and try and bounce back against Huddersfield. This could be a long couple of weeks.
  22. Hoping for a return to winning ways before we have a week or so off. Mojo will be much better around the camp if we can snag a cheeky away day victory here. Our record against QPR is solid, but they have in free scoring form so far. I expect some changes in the XI as this will be 3 games in 10 days. Take a sloppy 0-1 away win to end the chunk with the BIG W!!!
  23. Strong performance that lacked the final touches. 21 attempts, only 6 on target, not the nicest statistic for our point of view. Need to mix up the XI for our next outing, Rothwell and Holtby must be shoe ins to start. Coulda, shoulda, woulda... buy we didnt. Would you have taken a point before kick off? Probably. Lets move onwards.
  24. After that dismal result on the weekend we need a moral boosting result against one of the form teams Nottingham Forest. We have had a decent recent record against Forest both home and away, but they have started the reason in good shape and if honest this could be a tough one. Perhaps Holtby to start, Samuel still very lightweight and rusty, but it was great to see him back. Bouncebackability!
  25. Bound to happen.. Things were feeling too good for Rovers in recent days. Crashed back down to earth with a bump. Credit to Luton, sure we would have done the same if we were in their boots. If we can turn this titantic around and snag 2 wins this week I am sure all will be forgotten. Thoughts from the gaffa, the fans and more.
