How many years behind Brentford were Barnsley last season, 4 or 5? They survived by 1 point. 14 points behind Rovers. Mowbray would still have them down there that's a guarantee.

Blackburn Rovers vs Brentford, Friday, March 12.
Ghost7 replied to WacoRover's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
30', 70', 86', 91'. Dack's minutes over the past 4 games. Relatively eased in but didn't need 2 90s in 1 week. Hindsight is a wonderful thing, he had to start playing 90 minutes at some stage. -

Can't wait for this season to be over. -
Blackburn Rovers vs Brentford, Friday, March 12.
Ghost7 replied to WacoRover's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Watched it again, I'm wrong, Dack goes to plant himself heavily which he does have a habit of doing. It's very similar to the Morsy incident, although with Raya slightly less to blame. Terribly unlucky for him. -
Blackburn Rovers vs Brentford, Friday, March 12.
Ghost7 replied to WacoRover's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Might be wrong but I think Dack's left foot "goes" in the turf which left him vulnerable just before the nudge from Raya. The pitch is partially to blame for me. Hoping it's not as bad as he fears. -
If that's truly the case the next question has to be why? He's pointing our a major club failure. Why are we still 4 - 5 years behind Brentford, why hasn't this been spotted earlier and why as a club were we 9 - 10 years behind them previously? Surely the board can expedite the process or will we forever be 4 or 5 years behind Brentford? Brentford! Christ. It's absolute nonsense.

Very obvious from early season performances that Dolan should have been used more this season. Not solely relied upon but certainly given more than 15 minutes here and there.

Swansea 9th March at Home
Ghost7 replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Gallagher was doing the right thing in trying to clear the danger and many refs would have ignored that kind of contact since it still created a chance. The player didn't take it in his stride and get upended by a missed clearance. He stretched to get there, forced contact and went down like he'd broken his ankle, completely bought a penalty imo. The ref was conned. -
Well that should get Tony a 4 year contract extension.
-
Can't be nice heading into Millwall away needing 3 points to save your job: Thankfully Tony doesn't have to worry about that.

I miss the days when you could sing "sacked in the morning!" and the manager actually did get sacked in the morning.

Reading v Rovers. March 2nd 2021, 8pm.
Ghost7 replied to Proudtobeblue&white's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
again this wouldn't have been allowed to happen at ANY other club in this league. -
Every single team in the league is looking "sharper" than us and starting each half better regardless of their ability. Even Doncaster in the cup. Some quotes from Mowbray over the past 3 months sum things up pretty nicely. "Didn't do the basics" "Fell short today" "Played in the wrong positions" "Can't play this bad an expect to win any football match" "We didn't make the right decisions" "We lacked intent today" "We conceded really poor goals" "We need to be better". "We were way off where we can be". "We couldn't find a way through" "Lapses in concentration let us down". "Individuals didn't do their job". "We gave them a goal". "They didn't have to work for it". "Nobody reacted, the ball went in." "We made it hard for ourselves" Unfortunately these are the results he's producing game after game after game. I'm absolutely sick of it.

Rovers v Watford Wed 24th Feb 19:45
Ghost7 replied to davulsukur's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Preston, QPR, Barnsley and Forest were hugely important games. You could see that when looking ahead at the fixtures. I truly believe every other club in the league if they were in our position would have fired their manager for losing all of those. -
Rovers v Watford Wed 24th Feb 19:45
Ghost7 replied to davulsukur's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
It's simple really, to keep your job as a manger if the results aren't there, then the performances have to be and vice versa. If the results and performances aren't there for a sustained period then you get fired. This has highlighted something that is still a major problem at the club and has been since Venky's arrived: Knowledgable footballing people with the club and fans' best interest at heart are not in charge. They haven't been since the February 2011. -

Ghost7 replied to davulsukur's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I struggle to call borrowing other teams players "great" signings. His signings have been very hit and miss, or completely non existent in areas. The main problem is he can't get the best out of them. -

Unfortunately this is about to end sourly for a man that did some great work for Rovers. He should have been fired before now. It's become very uncomfortable. -

Looking like Tony might scrape another victory on the possession front tonight. I wonder if he’s had a trophy made for the end of the season? -
Championship Season 2020 - 2021
Ghost7 replied to Hoochie Bloochie Mama's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
We have one of the worst managers in the league. Absolutely no surprises here. The signs were there since October. What it has done is highlight the ownership issues the club has yet again. A corner I'd hoped we'd turned but seemingly not. I don't know where we go from here. Thankfully some high earners contracts are up in the summer which simply has to free up some smaller permanent transfers to be done, ideally by a manager that can put a defence together. It's going to be another case of 5 - 6 signings needed simply to achieve mid-table. Unless Venky's plan to spend millions (???) In my opinion we'll have even less chance of promotion next year which makes this season completely unforgivable. It has been a disaster from the playing surface to the dugout. Whoever is responsible for the pitch to become like it has and for the current manager still being here is completely to blame. You get out what you put in and unfortunately with Rovers corners are constantly cut. You can't fluke your way to promotion with the help of Premier League clubs that are doing it properly, you have to do it all properly yourself. -
That's Bristol City and Cardiff both finishing above us.

Blaming Nyambe's injury on outside pressure is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard from a Rovers manager. He shouldn't have been in charge today. -
Forest v Rovers Sat 20 Feb 3pm
Ghost7 replied to windymiller7's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Another 3 points on Mowbray's possession board. Looking really comfortable for him now up there. -
So, we haven't played well, the results haven't been good enough but the possession stats are. Imagine expecting to keep your job because of that. How about you publicly accept the performances haven't been anywhere near the required standard, bollock the players and demand more from them... and yourself!
-
How can you turn to stats when we haven't played well since October? 🤣

Forest v Rovers Sat 20 Feb 3pm
Ghost7 replied to windymiller7's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Won't be watching sadly due to the manager. Didn't watch Wednesday's mess either. As a fan I'm perfectly happy to watch us lose games we are expected to lose. I'm not happy to watch players underperform with a passive manager on the sideline, like we have done since October.
