Displaced Rover

There’s no one with any sort of strikers instinct in the box to get on the end of anything

As it stands we’ll be ending up in League 1

Vardy is such a bell

Not a chance of getting something from this game (unless we somehow manage to score 4 - then we might nick a draw)

We’d be such a good team if we could defend….and if we had a striker….

Walton was definitely worse. GOALLL

How bad must Leo be in training….

The fact Maguire claims to be a chartered accountant is worrying. Takes five seconds to compare date audit report and accounts were signed to then work out non of the PBSE disclosures will include any August transfer activity, The £20k net spend is such a non-story.

Is there a thread for people who think we'll knock about mid table for the next 10 years? Or am in the right place here by holding that view?

Based on the way he’s played this season I’d bite their hand off at that money

Strange for the BBC to put out what in essence reads as a personal advert for him...

Fairly sure this bloke is on the wind up. Can’t be that ill informed on football

It has to be at this point. No one can have watched Pears this season and think he’s been picked on merit. Unless (and this is a horrifying thought) Leo is shit and we’ve wasted best part of a million quid on him.

I’d run a raffle and put a random from the crowd in before Dolan gets on the pitch again. Absolute joke that he thinks he’s better than signing a contract here. Him getting a new deal is basically charity from Rovers

Siggy hat trick. 0-5. Season starts here.

Absolutely. You’d think we’re playing 2009 Barca with the way this is being talked about. They’ve had a decent start with some favourable fixtures but I’ll always be confident we can get something against a team that has George Hirst up front…

Bit off topic but in the brief bits I've seen of Batty (pre-season/league cup) he has looked miles away from Championship level. Does he really stand out beyond JRC in u21s?

We must watch different games. He looked slow and ponderous last weekend. Well off the pace. He might come good as he's obviously very raw but mad to be relying on him playing 90 mins as our key goal threat.

Dolan shouldn’t be anywhere near the squad let alone the first 11. So wasteful

Who for?! With the bizarre subs he’s made already it would be taking Sammie off which would be mad.

Says a lot that Dolan and Markanday getting on ahead of Telalovic

Moran and Wharton in battle for lowest pass completion rate ever seen on Ewood

It’s a Mowbray team so a meltdown whilst leading always a possibility

Who is the little prick who just went running in front of the BBE?

So silly from Hedges. Could see that happening in slow motion
