Comfortably numb

More than decent start for the ressies. Liking Cashin

Their manager said they were going full strength earlier in the week

Trying to work out the system. Maybe 3-4-3 with Powell and Diamini either side of Henriksson? Not expecting anything today but some positive performances from the youngsters would be something to take from the game

I would be around 14 at the time and lived on Revidge Rd. There were many, many times I would walk to Ewood from home and wait outside the players entrance just to see Tony Field and get his autograph.. He never refused, must have got his signature a dozen times. God bless Tony and thank you

Could do with this fellow in his heyday RIP Tony

Apparently it's the Tyjon to Arsenal rumour again. Though he says nothing been agreed ! That's breaking news for you. Nothing to do with Alebiosu

Oh dear .....😄

True. Who in their right minds would offer a 6 year contract at a club where you do well to last 6 months.? Same with the 8 year contracts for players. Absolute bat shit club ( and that's something coming from us )

We've already been told that this is the policy, try and buy unpolished diamonds, sell them at a profit and reinvest. It's the model the likes of Brighton, Brentford and others use to great effect. I doubt that we will be quite as successful, though it shouldn't surprise anyone to know everyone is available at the right price

The perfect description of his ability .... He has a mental scanner. He knows what needs to be done before winning the ball back. What better endorsement for someone.

Just a thought, but remembering Baradji is only on loan (with an option I think), shouldn't we be trying to sort that out this window as well ? Otherwise I can see it getting to Summer, us pissing about ad usual and missing out on him

Baradji ? Shown in the few games he's played he's not afraid to have a dip from 25 yards. Got a good leap on him as well, could do worse (Henriksson, no fault of his though)

Nobody's building his ego, certainly not me.

Whatever you think of Nixon, if it wasn't for him there wouldn't be a need for a transfer thread 😄. He's the only one who at least gives us something to discuss , whether true or false

Same poster saying Hedges out for 4 months 🥺 If true that's a lwb required as well as rwb and 2 strikers imo

So that's Miller, McLoughlin, O'Riordan, Cashin, Pratt, Litherland, Atcheson, with Carter and Wharton to come back in the next few weeks. Considering the latter 2' s injury record seems we are playing safe ,( if true). Maybe it allows a couple of youngsters the chance to get a good loan deal away and really get some more valuable experience at decent clubs ?

Alebiosu already being linked away, though I imagine this is bs to be honest. Rudy must be rubbing his hands though , £4m for someone whose probably cost a tenth of that 6 months ago. The project is working .... https://c.newsnow.co.uk/A/1299027330?-11198:839

Sometimes you can accept getting beat by a better side , which they were. What you can't accept is being outfought, outrun and worse I'm all the basic football "givens" There have been some dire performance at home this season but that was as bad as it gets. Going to need to go back to a back 4 on Monday as no option with no wing backs available.

Moore and Windass missing for them 🙏🤞

Seeing we Ohashi as only recognised striker wonder if we have a slight change of system and play a midfield diamond. Something like... Pears Miller. McLoughlin. Pratt Tronstad Litherland. TGH. Baradji. Hedges Cantwell Ohashi
