The club as it stands is not nearly as marketable as it could be, if the owners tried to make it more attractive. They must look at the current roster, & the fact we were 2 points off playoffs, & try to invest some money to get us to the 3-6 range. It would bolster their investment in the club, and if somehow get us to PL, they could make more of their investment back- if they choose to sell.
My expectations are to improve on this seasons strong finish- so, 5th or 6th, & a chance at promotion.
Reality, and the last 15 years, says hope for 10th, but don’t be surprised at a lower half finish.
If we can re-sign Weimann, Dolan & Batth, I’d feel much better. Weimann can score, & Batth was very consistent in defence.
Sorry, I must respectfully disagree. I don’t think we could’ve asked more from the players. We didn’t give nearly this performance vs ShefU at Ewood back in November (we were on a poor run then).
If we see today’s fight every time (in particular, I’m thinking of vs Stoke, Cardiff, & Pompey) the point tally wouldve put us in playoffs.
A little early to look at signings, but Ryan Hardie’s (who’s free kick beat Liverpool) team relegated, & Emil Riis is out of contract. Could be useful signings, & probably better than some already on our roster.
I am proud of this club. A month ago, we had nothing to play for. The lads never quit, gave 100%, and gave us an exciting finish.
Thank you, Blackburn Rovers, & Ismail, you never quit!
