I hope so for their sake, whatever it is, it wasn’t on display today.

Last weeks goal was exactly that. A good long ball from Pickering that sent BBD through on goal.

Not picking on the lad because he wasn’t on his own but last week against Hudds Morton was abysmal also. I said at the time “ If he’s the future for Liverpool God help them “. Then I see today some top German team want to sign him. I wonder if he was being watched today ? For his sake I hope not.

Our half time xG was 0 apparently, you may be sanguine with that but I’m not.

We never do play Brererton up the middle. It’s not his best position but sometimes you have give it a go in emergencies.

Maybe they just don’t believe in the managers way of playing ? I’ve worked for gaffers who told me how they wanted a job doing that was complete bollocks. So you do it their way without much enthusiasm and it usually end up a cock up. Been there, done it.

Great.

Joke of a club. I’d take em’ to Blackpool and have them running up and down the Tower. On the outside ! So what happened to JDT’s master plan of getting them used to “ his methods “ during the World Cup ?

When JDT has won as much as Fergie won he can please himself what he does but for now he needs to hold his hand and at least be honest about what he got wrong.

He needs to realise he’s skating on thin ice, more so after today. At any other club there would have been a meeting asap - this afternoon back at Ewood or tomorrow morning at the latest - with the board, manager & coaches , captain , and a couple of senior players. It would be made plain that performances like that aren’t acceptable at Blackburn Rovers and if there are repeats in the future there will be consequences. Of course at the current Rovers none of that will happen and it will be all pals together, ear flicks, and piss taking at training tomorrow. If they don’t get a day off that is.

I suppose you can say that when you live in Manchester. Try living in Great Harwood or any of the areas between the two towns.

Maybe a sniper had got him ?

I’ve been saying that for years. Managers have come and gone but the lack of fighters in the team remains the same.

They must have no pride in who they are and no self respect then. If somebody did that to me when I was playing I’d be counting the days to the return match and win lose or draw that lad would have known all about it.

I’d blow that up big style and have copies all around the dressing room walls for the return game.

None on the pitch.

Yeah, “ disappointed “ is when you accidentally put too much salt on your chips. Or your dog accidentally knocks over your cup of tea. Today wasn’t “ disappointing “, it was off the scale.

“ Disappointed “ is that it ? Some of us won’t sleep tonight after that no show. If they had any feelings for the club and its fans at all there would be a written apology in tomorrows paper signed by every person involved in todays “ game “. Starting with the manager.

If that’s what he really thinks I’m worried. How many away performances have been equally poor ?

In the original Minis v Ferraris game at least the dingles had a go.

He obviously didn’t understand the importance of the fixture at all. Kompany has lived in the North West a long while, he knew how much this matters. From me it’s a real black mark against JDT and whoever pulled on a shirt today. Totally unacceptable for Blackburn Rovers.

Have we scored a goal after conceding the first goal ?

Mola played 3/4 of the Wham game and then came off ! Why start him today ? Has JDT apologised yet ?

Tony didn’t like them.

I wouldn’t mind if our football was worthy of 7th place but it’s more worthy of 7th from the bottom.
