We always have “ excellent players coming through “. That’s as far as it goes.

Yes I could see that. Some modern centre halves see defending as a bit of a chore, he’s one of them. I prefer centre halves who love defending.

Kaminski was our best player for me and more than made up later on for not getting out to the Derby goal.

Just looking back at their goal. What a typical Mowbray shambles. We don’t do enough to prevent the first cross coming in. The ball sails across to the far wing. Nyambe is too narrow. The centre half jogs over like he’s going getting a half time pie. Elliot is also too slow reacting to help out. Their guy eventually puts the ball back into a huge space on the near post for Lawrence to head home. Some of our players seem to be marking each other. I would have also expected my keeper to have got out and clattered Lawrence back in the day but that doesn’t seem to be the fashion these days.

Rovers are the only constant in my adult life. Wives, Houses, Jobs, Workmates etc have all come and gone over the years. I was on pins tonight until the ref blew up. Having said that I haven’t got the same enthusiasm at the moment. A change of manager would work wonders though.

My relief at gaining the three points is tempered by the knowledge that if we start next season with the same management team it’ll just be more of the same.

Did we find out why Lenihan wasn’t playing ?

He’s leaving the England set up for a reason.

He could have been whatever he wanted to be. I saw him play central midfield, behind the striker, defensive midfield, out on the wing, right full back - and he was great in all of those positions. A David Dunn who could tackle.

I wouldn’t back him to get us promoted even if you gave him £100 Million. He’d probably blow it on back up players to help the lads out or kids for the future.

Hart. Cunningham was decent but on a loan deal.

Being better than Bell or Douglas isn’t exactly setting a high standard. I was hoping for another Alan Wright. He was great going forward but he could make life really difficult for opposing wingers.

Me too.

If we’re having none English players Mike England has to be up there. The best centre half I ever saw in the flesh bar none.

Indeed, we didn’t see him actually put a tackle in on an opponent in that video.

I’m not impressed with Holtby, he’s good for a 15 to 20 minute spell in a game at the most. Rothwell has one good game in six. Dolan has potential but he’s far from the finished object.

I don’t think the Harvey Elliot’s of this world are the sort of players that get you out of this division.

We’ll be back to gates of 5,837 before too long.

That pitch looks better than Ewood.

Armstrong could probably out sprint Rhodes running backwards.

That was a while back, Gally’s not done much since wherever he’s been. If you had a time machine would you still go back and sign him ? I agree if you are going to play him it’s right up front or nothing, asking him to play out wide is crazy, he hasn’t got the tools. I’d like to see him and Armstrong together up front just once with somebody out wide who can put a ball in and a midfield player who can pick an incisive pass now and again. I don’t hold out any hope for Big Ben.

I think it says more about the goal scoring abilities of Brererton and Gallagher.

I don’t want Mowbray getting another penny.

Anybody know how many Dumb and Dumber have got between them this season ?

I thought I heard on the radio that all next Saturdays Championship games have been cancelled. Help or hindrance ? Hindrance for me.
