Who cares. We fucked up games ago and this isn't making me feel any better. Milwall shat themselves and that is the only reason we came back.

Think I'd rather Millwall scored now at this stage

28 years ago on Monday 8th May we were beating Newcastle on the way to the title because 'we've got bottle'.

Apart froma 5 minute spell this has been shambolic and embarrassing. JDT is the boss and he has to take the blame for many many spineless displays. 0 wins in the final 10 games this will be. A joke.

Get in! Good man Wharton!

On a side note the commentators are thick as shit. For the 1st goal they said its clearly over the line when it was dubious. The 2nd goal was onside but they said the offside call was the right decision.🤣

This is a brutal performance so far. I've said it before there's no leaders in this team. We need a few tough experienced pros who know how to steady the ship when its going tits up. Lewis Travis is not it.

How many points have we won from being a goal down this season? I believe its 2 or 3 points. Pathetic

The perfect start. FFS. Season over. Goodnight Vienna.

Sky saying Hedges will be the lone striker. Put Diaz up front as a 9.

Loved that 92/93 kit. Probably the nicest in the club's history

He left to give Ray Harford a chance to manage the team and iirc KD went 'upstairs' to some kind of DoF role. Nothing to do with bottling it.
Dalglish: Stepping down as Blackburn Rovers boss was emotional | Lancashire Telegraph
I don't buy that reason at all. Seems strange that a top manager would walk away from the newly crowned champions to let his assistant have a go because he is a good guy.
The DOF role was a total farce where Dalglish barely was at the club and played golf all year.

Dalglish stepped down after walker told him there would be no major spending that summer. Walker went all cheap especially with appointing Harford. The only summer signing was matty Holmes even though at the time we could have attracted the best in Europe
I've never been satisfied with the explanation Dalglish has given why he stepped down. I have heard a few rumours.
1. He fell out with Walker over the failed signing of Geoff Thomas in 1992 and decided to see out his contract and leave.
2. He wanted to go back to manage Liverpool
I never heard that Walker told him there was no funds available for big signings in 1995 and that's why he left.
I think he left 3 weeks to the day after that day at Anfield. It was very sudden.
My own personal feeling is that Dalglish doesn't like pressure. Blackburn were always the underdog and now they were champions with expectations to stay at the top. Dalglish bottled it and wanted out. Still doesnt take away from his achievements.
I do always wonder what would have happened had Dalglish stayed at least another year or two. My guess. 95-96 we sign finish 3rd or 4th. We have a more respectable Champions League campaign and there would have been some big signings to set us up for the following season. Les Ferdinand should have been signed in 1995.
On a side note had we signed Roy Keane in 1993 who knows where the club would be today. There surely would have been even more success in the 90s.

Hoping for the best obviously but expecting total disappointment tomorrow. No wins in 9 in the run in. (Facepalm)

Booing Shearer was ridiculous. Yes everyone was gutted at the time but this was the man that won the title for us along with Dalglish. We were a sinking ship and that 95-96 season was a total disaster and Shearer was arguably the most in form striker in Europe at that time. You couldn't blame him for moving on. The club royally fucked up by not making any major signings and he probably felt a bit abandoned by Dalglish. I remember thinking at the time that that things are going to go downhill fast now that Dalglish stepped down and that's exactly what happened.
I still feel the club do not remember and honour those two men enough. Brian Clough is remembered by both Derby and Forest. I dont see why Dalglish cant be a legend for Blackburn Rovers and Liverpool, yet there is no stand naed after him nor any statue of him with the trophy. Nothing.

He got a bit of stick at times, but Morten was a class act. Two brilliant goals here. Also a sad example (for us) of how owners can completely change the face of a club. City struck gold, whereas we...
His twin brothers Gamst and Pederson were fairly good as well

No urgency about the back 4 even when we can win this now. Sideways over and over.

Noting like a short corner eh

If this game went on until next week we wouldnt score

Yep. Pointless in the end. Nice to win but its a depressing win. Millwall shat the bed and they were clearly very nervous.
