Home V Fulham 08/02/2020
Tyrone Shoelaces replied to Bigdoggsteel's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Teams win " every loose ball " for a reason. Do you think Travis and Nyambe will be here this time next season ? You must be seeing another back four to the one I'm seeing. It's entirely possible that none of them will be at Ewood next August. -

Absolutely pointless argument. What does it say in today's paper ? Mine says Blackburn Rovers 0 - Fulham 1. -
January transfer window 2020
Tyrone Shoelaces replied to GunnerRover7's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
It's the thing about the chairman mentioning a game at Rotherham and implying that he doesn't relish the physical side of the game that did it for me. We've got more than our fair share of faint hearts already in my opinion. -

Yeah, not my style of player. We don't want any more players who's hearts aren't in it. -
Championship season 2019-20

Another season standing still is another season actually going backwards. -
Home V Fulham 08/02/2020

That sums up my feelings. The team play in the image of the manager. Predictable, dull, uninspiring. Laboured passing, not enough movement off the ball, players going through the motions knowing they'll still get a game next week. Listening to Mowbray on the radio being followed by Neill was like your TV going from black and white to colour. It was a totally different outlook and way of seeing how games should be played. I hate saying that but it's true. -

I listened to his interview on Radio Lancs and then the one with Alex Neill at Preston. Absolutely chalk and cheese. One would talk a glass eye to sleep the other was full of enthusiasm and aggressive intent. Tony's view was JRC will never replace the likes of Dack or Holtby if he lives to be a thousand ! -

Could be or 4-3-3 with Travis-Johnson-Downing in the middle 3 and Gallager-Armstrong-Rankin Costello up front. Or it could be a mixture of the two systems with and without the ball. -

I can't imagine us having a better chance of promotion than this season. -

I don't think he's at that level yet. -
Supporters Consultation Meeting
Tyrone Shoelaces replied to J*B's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
From what I read Brexit is going to make hunting for players in the European market at lot more difficult. Especially regarding the sort of lower ranking European players we'll be looking at in the future. -

I'm frankly amazed by that. It would have been my first question. -

He reminded me of David Speedie style wise. -
Just before my time at Burnley but I saw him play at all his subsequent clubs, Bolton, Bury and Barrow. He was a top player in his day at a time when every team had two good wingers. RIP.

Supporters Consultation Meeting
Tyrone Shoelaces replied to J*B's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I've been away from the board for the last few days and I haven't really got time to go back through 8 pages. Just one question for attendees - was the signings of Brererton and Gallagher discussed ? -
I think his form at Chesterfield previously had got him in the public eye.

Academy & U21s
Tyrone Shoelaces replied to blueboy3333's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Given the injury situation in attacking midfield/strikers area of the pitch he would have probably got a game or two now. -
It probably was Metcalfe, he could fight fire with fire when it was required.

A rare opportunity
Tyrone Shoelaces replied to Alejandro Tapia's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
You or him ? -
Somebody mentioned Bill Eckersley was a bit of a practical joker. There's a photo on the internet of Rovers training before the 1960 Cup Final. The lads are doing sprint training on the track between the pitch and the main stand. Dougan is just breasting the tape that a couple of the players are holding. The rest of the players are sat on the wall watching. Bill is sat there with the leg of his shorts pulled up, quite clearly exposing himself. Meat and two veg on display. I've got exactly the same photo in a Rovers history book and the offending organ has been coloured in to match the colour of his shorts but the internet photo is un censored.

I got the feeling with Holtby that he wasn't a stranger to the treatment room and to expect him to play every week was being a bit optimistic.
