v Luton Town (h) - 14/12/2024
Exiled_Rover replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Nah we're absolutely flying right now. -
Everyone was told exactly what he was when we bought him - a big, athletic, disruptive CF (one who wins headers, holds the ball up and brings others into play) that can't finish. That's exactly what we've seen from him.

The turn of the year are where teams fall away - you play so many games in such a short period of time that if you don't have a strong squad you simply can't keep up. I'm glad Eustace has wracked up so many points so far because I fear for us over the next 6 weeks or so. With regards to transfers - you know it'll be two cheap loans. It's a shame nobody from the Academy is knocking down the door this season.

January Transfer window

We need pace. He's not fast enough to warrant the fee they'll want for him. -

You don't half post some daft stuff. They picked up 26 points last season - SIX points adrift of 17th. They embarrassed themselves. -
v Sheffield Wednesday (a) - 10/12/2024
Exiled_Rover replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
No it doesn't. Gueye will be desperate for the goal, the Sheff Weds defender will be desperate for it not to be an own goal. Panel doesn't need to meet. -

i.e. no chance. -

No Doomsday play, just a simple shoulder shrug when we ask for some transfer funds. -
v Sheffield Wednesday (a) - 10/12/2024
Exiled_Rover replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Misses the Luton game - has been taken off on 80 minutes anyway the last few games. Won't do him any harm having a rest and wipes the slate clean on his cards. I've no idea how he's accrued 5 of them though, he's hardly a tough tackling CM. -

He looked much better when we put McFadzean next to him too - clearly he thrives as the junior partner in a centre back pairing. -

We desperately need pace and width. -

Workrate. Same reason we start Dolan. -

This is the real start of the awful Christmas run in. This is where the richer teams with their larger squads pull away from the pack with back-to-back games until January stressing players. -
Championship 24/25
Exiled_Rover replied to Forever Blue's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
We have 31 points. 50 points is the accepted target for survival. -
v Hull City (a) - 07/12/2024
Exiled_Rover replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Well that and conceding 2+ goals a game. -

Exiled_Rover replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
He's out of contract in the summer, right? I wonder if we could sneak ahead of his suitors and offer them a knockdown fee in January? -

Exiled_Rover replied to Forever Blue's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
19 points from safety now. -
v Hull City (a) - 07/12/2024
Exiled_Rover replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
The concern is always when we have to play multiple games in a week. We're a team that gives 100% effort each match. It'll be interesting to see what happens against Sheffield Wednesday with only a few days rest. -
v Hull City (a) - 07/12/2024
Exiled_Rover replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Tidy on the ball. Nowhere near as quick as many of you want him to be. Did well to win a corner late and worked hard to track Giles every time he overlapped. It's really difficult to influence the game in 10-15 minutes. -

Exiled_Rover replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Calamitous how? He held the ball up and he defended well in our box. -
v Hull City (a) - 07/12/2024
Exiled_Rover replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
He was talking about 4 straight 1-0 wins at Hull. Whether that's correct either I don't know. -

This ref was having a stormer, but he's lost the plot in the last 10 minutes. -

It's infuriating how lax we are at defending throw ins. Regardless of the manager. -

They cost money, so no. -

His work rate is phenomenal, but he's awful on the ball. Always picks the wrong pass (if he does indeed pass it).
