This ref has let everything go. Don’t hate it, at least consistent -

Living very dangerously here. Need someone to just calm it down -

Fucking hell we’ve got Cafu playing wide right -

The shite goalkeeping is catching. Lovely build up play though! -

Not a patch on this -

He never made anywhere near this sort of error. Two times the ball ballooned up in the air and any competent keeper comes to get it. Then compounds it by letting it roll right through him. Genuinely the worst goalkeeping I’ve ever seen for Rovers. -

Fact we spent our only transfer fee on him makes me want to cry… -

That’s the worst piece of goalkeeping I’ve ever seen. Not only was it shocking to let that roll in, he also had 2 chances to come claim it and instead stood rooted to his line. Awful. -

The point is that the quality of said meat (at £4 for a pulled pork burger) wouldn't be much higher than what you'd give your dog. There are economics to consider as part of F&B pricing, it's not just plucking a figure out the hat that you think is fair. -
Premier League 23-24

Has Raya made the required number of appearances yet? He’ll be out the team again soon. Been awful for weeks -
That is f'ing superb. Illustrates what a nothing club they are.

It’s a total joke, instigated by the 6/7 richest clubs at the expense of the several hundred all the way down the pyramid that rely on FA cup money. International appearances aside, it’s a complete fallacy that top end Premier League sides play more. If you’re a decent L1 team you’re playing 46 league games, potentially play offs, long EFL trophy run plus whatever you get in league cup and FA cup - sure that averages out as more than most Premier League sides, with far smaller squads and much poorer facilities. This moaning about elite sportsmen, in their 20/30s playing too much will never ever make sense to me. They should be fucking grateful of the chance to do it for a living.

I mean he was always fairly average (golden 6 months aside) but he looked especially crap when played through the middle. More effective when operating as a wide forward. I'm not so sure. He's signed a 4 year, £40k a week deal - £8m ish over the length of the contract, plus presumably a fairly chunky signing fee, whilst making him more marketable to Spanish speaking fans. It might have been a poor move from a football perspective in the long term (as he's clearly not good enough for that level) but financially it was absolutely the correct thing to do for him and his family.

It's a coping mechanism. I've come off Ewood loads of times after defeat and said "they were just as shit as us". -

We’ve not even tried to stick the ball in the box in injury time. No urgency -

The way they were able to waltz through the middle of our defence before the shot is so worrying. Far too easy to beat. -

Ref giving another decision on crowd reaction. Laughable -

This ref seems to just react to the players/crowd. Awful -

In real time I was surprised it was given but once it was how has he allowed the AR (who is about 4 times the distance away) to overrule him?!!
