  1. The lads in Blackburn end that want to stand and sing do say anyway. Not sure a terrace makes a difference. Where I sit in JW majority probably couldn’t stand for 90 mins anyway.
  2. Im with you on Armstrong, I was a big backer of his when he was on wing and people called for him to be dropped. His pace is a weapon, even when he was poor for us outside, just him being there made opposition think twice. It’s almost ironic that, the style of football we are playing this season, he would be the missing piece. But the possession football we played last year, albeit he scored 29 goals, wasn’t as suited. Or maybe im wrong cos that goal return is huge, but I feel the way we play now he would flourish.
  3. Grim reading. Buckley has something, if it clicks with him he can be a good player. Dolan clearly has something, he is playing very safe at moment and needs to back himself and unleash a bit. Rest of those you mention, can’t see any of them breaking out as a first name on team sheet, Travis excluded obviously.
  4. Wasn’t Malgoire fastest in Europe at one point? Sounds good, but meh.
  5. If opening 8 games is anything to go by, relegation is not going to be an issue for us anyway.
  6. Encouraging there is some kinda option to keep Brereton. Why Rich Sharpe can’t elaborate on what I don’t know. I’m just hoping Brereton relationship with Buckley and Dack is enough to keep him here. Unless he scores 20 plus goals this season, I can’t see where he goes that is better for him. I spoke to Waggot at Barsnley, had no idea it was him until seeing his face this week from the interviews, missed opportunity to tell him what I think.
  7. Losing Lenihan, Nyambe, Brereton and Rothwell on a free is a disaster. I can handle Rothwell leaving. Brereton is a financial disaster to spend 7 million on and let go just as he starts semi producing and is still only 22/23 years old.
  8. Just got home, could of gone either way I guess another clean sheet and point away will do. Kaminski, Nyambe & Ayala brilliant. Once Khadra is fit he will be starting every game I hope. Our fans were really good today, great atmosphere in our end all game. (Apart from the ones fighting each other first half)
  9. Say we sold 10k tickets at £30 that would be £300,000. If tickets were reduced to £20, we would need to sell and extra 5k to make the same money. Does anyone think 5k fans would come over sake of it being £10 cheaper, I don’t think so. I think lack of success, investment in team is the main issue. If we got promoted by some miracle, attendances would go up regardless if tickets were same price.
  10. Can’t see anything changing in terms of holding people into account. Not at games anyway. Home games - No one really cares, about 30 people in Blackburn end will sing, rest will sit there watching game peacefully until we score. Away games - Majority just want to support our team on the day and leave the club politics behind.
  11. Have we still not heard from the club about our abysmal transfer window? I spoke to a guy who works for our club at a game this season and he said he told Waggot he wants Mowbray gone, and the response was we played good football start of season. I don’t blame Mowbray for transfers, I heard it from Lowes agent we offered 1 million over 4 years for him. That’s not gonna be the managers doing. I agree with fans annoyed at team selections etc, but transfers is Waggot at co.
  12. Racist chanting, throwing stuff at our players. No sign of all those on social media condemning our fans in euros for booing anthems. UEFA really needs to get a grip of these European fans who time and time again racially abuse players.
  13. With all due respect to the players that have just joined, that is an abysmal transfer window. After losing 13 players, and with numerous contracts coming up in the summer, to only sign 1 player on a permanent basis is baffling.
  14. Was told by someone not connected to our club that we wouldnt budge on 1 million for Lowe, and that’s when he was offered Bournemouth.
  15. Sorry he’s not Steven Gerrard. Sounds like your issue is with the board, don’t bring a 21 yr old footballer into it.
  16. I mean he’s explained it enough times. He has no reason to lie, if he could have the players now he would. Why wouldn’t he?
  17. Buckley definitely isn’t the next Lowe. He’s only 21 for god sake. Whats with this board and writing off youngsters? We aren’t Chelsea that can loan them out for a while and bring them back. Hes a very good footballer and he’s only going to get stronger and better. We aren’t going to buy anyone better with our budget.
  18. Agreed, that’s what players should be thinking! I’m talking as a fan
  19. Had Rovers on the laptop and WBA on the tv tonight. They score for fun. Sheff United only scored 20 goals last year and none so far this year. In a way WBA play to our strengths, we are suited to an end to end open goal fest. Still expecting nothing from the game, anything draw and above would be a great result. The key is to not get dicked.
  20. You would be correct about Dolan, if our plan was to have Dolan cross it in box and Gallagher just try head it in. But that’s not the tactics, cos Dolan can’t cross and Gallagher can’t head it. The front free works the way it’s meant to for what we have. Dolan worked wonders against Swansea, not against Millwall so Was subbed. So again, our lack of players isn’t why we have started well. The players playing are Mowbray players, and although some fans wrote off all these players (including Armstrong) they are now at the age and stage where Mowbray wanted them for. If only we had Chris Houghton aye! We would be in Premier League.
  21. I know it’s light hearted, but this forum would be more enjoyable with out the constant digs at Mowbray. I was ready for him to go after last season, because with the squad we had the final position wasn’t good enough. Bit give the man his credit when it’s due. He was ridiculed for saying we need our goals to come from elsewhere like our CB now Armstrong gone, and what happened tonight? They both scored. Ayala his signing who is ridiculed because he’s from Boro, has been Superb first 3 games. It was frustrating he was out last season, and he’s prone to it, but if managed and kept fit is one of best defenders in league. A surprise win, especially when it went 1-1. WBA look so good I don’t expect much from that Saturday but let’s give it a go!
  22. Interested to see the data. Because in my eyes, Swansea’s possession was all in their back line. And Millwall can have the ball all day long, only time i feared them was set pieces.
