Championship - 22-23
Armchair supporter supremo replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Maybe it's more about having different options for when things aren't working. Would be a bit daft to have 3 or 4 virtually identical types of striker in the team (unless they where all Alan Shearer or something 😅) -

Honestly not expecting a result today, but I really am hoping for a good response and fighting display after the midweek fanny show. A fighting draw would be very good though -

Grella was real quality, just turned out to be a total injury crock Fowler was only on a free short term contract i think, so why not🤷♂️ Andrews wasn't my cup of tea but a lot of people rated him, just not prem standard though Either way I did say his time with us was terrible! -

Aside from everything.... I just want to say fair play and well done to Paul Ince, he outsmarted us and it looks like reading are going to have decent season if last night was anything to go by. I was actually a bit gutted it turned out to be a pretty poor appointment when he signed for us, put a lot of that down to him not being experienced enough, joining at a time when we where lodong our best players and weren't getting any real money to replace them and I also think the backroom staff he brought in(archie bloody knox!) where a real backwards step after the brilliant coaching team Hughes had. He's a player i liked a lot and i think he doesn't get the credit he deserves, people talk about Kean, Cantona, giggs... A lot from the early/mid 90s united team but Ince was just as good at the time. Also always did well in the England shirt -

Fair doos Still a player that I'd prefer to have in the squad though for the time being at least -

Tbf dolan has been excellent when he's come on later in the game to ruffle a few feathers! Definitely not one I'd even be considering letting go anywhere -

Our weak links in the team got well and truly found out tonight by an oppo manager that had really done his homework. Still the squads currently threadbare and it is just one bad result out of 5! So the mental breakdown some are having on hear really is a bit embarrassing to see. Personally think the manager got the team selection wrong tonight, particularly in tge attacking line. Think I'd have gone 433 tonight with morton, travis and buckley in midfielde, brereton cf with dack and szmodics on his shoulders. 🤷♂️ Easy for me to say things like that in hindsight though. Need new signings last week and the bbd transfer saga needs resolving one way or another very fast. -

Ince is clearly out to prove a point tonight (this rate he'll be leaving with 3 though 🙈sorry) -

Going to be JDTs most important half time talk yet! And some Re-strategiesing needed! (if that's a word ) -

Hate knocking a young lad, but I've not seen anything particularly good from Vale. Personally I'd have Dack up there, might not be his ideal position but at least you know if you get him on the ball he has quality -

Not really. Calling it an "obsession" is odd. -

I think us getting such a good deal for Armstrong then him going on to sadly be a dud in the prem is probably going against us in terms of what prem clubs are now prepared to offer for him. Football wise going back to Forest would be the 2nd best move for BBD if they wanted him, i think he'd really suit the way they play and blend in well with their current squad, not sure whether the sell on clause would work in their favour or not in negotiations!

I've just watched the first episode so far, I didn't even know they had a woodstock99! Looked absolutely dreadful right from the start! Depressing venue (a large ex military compound) Awful headline bands (American music was terrible at that point) Crowd mainly just of spoilt white "frat boys & girls" Antisocial drugs (gone was the natural mild weed and mushrooms of the 60s, replaced by chemically produced pills and powders) Completely over commercialised and expensive 40° heat and no free water... Not the best recipe!!

Pathetic. The only place "marginal gains" should be addressed is on the pitch! Away fans should be treat and welcomed like guests by the club, it's just basic sportsmanship and professionalism. Also from a business point of view you'd want away fans to leave spreading the word that ewood is a good place to travel to as an away fan, to encourage more and more to come in the future as PAYING football supporters -

Whos crappy idea was it to shove the away fans up into the top corner anyway!? Just seemed a really petty disrespectful and unsporting thing to do unless there's some good reason that I'm not aware of -

Bit daft but I've always liked the idea of each player having their own tune (of their own choosing) to be played when they score. Probably too complicated and too much like hardwork for whichever jobsworth does the PA stuff, i mean they don't even seem to know how to control the volume (other than to just turn everything up to 11) -

Exactly!!! But its not going to change though, blackburn folk in general are always 10 miles behind the curve and still just looking in the rear view mirror when it comes to music. Shit I was considered strange for liking oasis, 'britpop' etc... In the mid 90s whilst the majority of others my age where still listening to god awful cheesy MC knobrash rave music or bloody kiddy pop chart music -
