Manchester City are funded with an endless pot of gold from the Arabs. You don't get an endless pot of gold playing the good tooth fairy. I prefer 6os and early 70s football, there was a transfer ceiling of 100,000, and every team had an opportunity of silverware over a season.

We could do with a brave government to introduce a super rich tax, some spoilt footballers of today definitely fit into this bracket. The excess tax could help the poorest earners out.

Haven't been on this site for a month or so, my tablet broke down just got a new one. Before a ball was kicked on Saturday, I was saying to a friend this one could be a stumbling block after the easy efl cup tie. We have time to put things right with the international break. We could have Sigurdsen and the new signing from Monchengladback in contention for the Boro game. Hopefully we will make it fortress Ewood again for this one.

Unfortunately I will miss the Hull city match Saturday, I will be babysitting a family members dog while they are on holiday. Hope the rest of you enjoy the game and we make it fortress Ewood and take the 3pts.

Sam Gallagher back in contention, his work rate is excellent, his goal scoring could do better. He might have to up his game to get back in the team with Leonard, Markanday and Ennis beginning to find the net.

I have faith in this team, showed some neat touches against Girona and w.b.a, Rotherham 0 Rovers 3.

Your quoting me on this comment, it was for somebody who asked what the attendance was.

I was replying to somebody who asked what the attendance was.

A poor performance first half hour, to many passes going astray.Walsall were up for this one and took full advantage to take the lead. Great to see Ennis and Buckley on the score sheet. We always make things difficult for ourselves these days, cruising at 4-2, I went to the toilet and came back to see the score was 4-3.

It wasn't a decent turnout, Riverside closed vacant seats in the Blackburn end.

Dunny was well built, but a decent footballer. Let's not knock Ennis till we have seen him given some decent match time.

I agree with JDT, we have a more threadbare squad than last season at the moment, he's resting Travis who took a few knocks at the weekend but should be fit for Saturday and a few others.

Adam and Scott Wharton will play according to the Lancashire Telegraph, also Ennis is getting game time to build up his fitness.

I was at both, Morcambe and the nightmare that unfolded against Fulham after Van Heck was sent off early.

Early days, the best 11 get the nod. We have yet to see Siggurdsen and Ennis in action for 90 minutes. After watching Rovers against Girona and West Brom, I have good vibes about this Rovers squad, there beginning to gel and play like a team.

I agree, would like to see Ennis for 90 minutes, but let's not get carried away, one of our best chances of silverware is the EFL cup. Let's have some decent players on the bench incase things don't go to plan. I can remember us playing Morcambe in the EFL cup with a second string squad, and we lost it 1-0.

It was a battling performance from Rovers to see us over the line after 104 minutes. The Blackburn End was rocking when Leonard scored the 2nd. If we can play like this consistently over the season, we will be in the mix for the top 6.

My thoughts exactly, a winger to whip crosses into the box. After saying that I thought we played well down the wings and got the ball in the danger zone several times.

Don't forget Markanday, who's beginning to find his form. We have yet to see 90 minutes of Ennis who has just got over injury and wasn't match fit.

Two good performances in a row, this teams beginning to gel. Leonard and Markanday on target again, but we nearly paid the price when we missedd 2 golden opportunities, slack defending from Rovers to let West Brom back in it, the defence stood off while Phillips slotted the ball in the net. Good performance Rovers let's hope it continues.

Pickering was taken to the cleaners against Girona, they waltzed round him like he wasn't there. Let's hope he puts things right against West Brom.

Luton have agreed with a deal for Kaminski, will some of it be spent on strengthening the Rovers squad. We could do with a decent winger, Ennis is a powerful looking tallish striker who could get his head to a few decent crosses.

Unlike some comments who reckon we were rubbish, I disagree, I thougt it was a decent workout for Rovers. Leonard and Markanday on the score sheet, it will do there confidence a World of good. I thought Ennis looked the business when he came on, and he gave the Spanish defence a few problems at times. somebody mentioned he was slow, they forget he's just recovered from injury, I can see him scoring goals for Rovers. We were unlucky not to level it at 3-3 with a couple of decent chances that just went wide. Dont forget we were playing decent opposition, who beat Real Madrid 4-2 and Sheffield United 2-0.

We could do with a decent crowd turning up at Ewood Tomorrow for the friendly against Girona, who have just been promoted to la liga. They have beaten Sheffield United 2-0.

A £1,000, how about getting a round in at the beer tent. It would make it an even funner day.
