Spot on - a game where you hold your hands up and say they don't score any of the first three goals again all season. -

To be fair if the fans moan and get this guy sacked after 5 years of Mowbray and Venus pulling the strings this'll be the last season ticket I buy. I've already fallen out of love with the club, being on a completely different wavelength to the fans would be the final straw. He's done a tremendous job - his squad is terrible and he needs patience. -

I think he's realistic in terms of the money we have. A 20 goal a season #9 and this game (along with the Boro game) is put to bed at half time. The other 2 are up for debate, but we simply don't score enough goals. We created 4 golden opportunities today - I don't think they created 1, yet it's 4-0. -

We'd have been 2-0 at half time against Boro too. -

Oh agree to disagree - he's clearly desperate to bring players in "every window is a chance to improve your team and you shouldn't waste that". -

I distinctly remember a game against Fulham at Ewood that says otherwise. -

He needs to play more based on the last two performances - but even against Norwich it's clear he doesn't fancy tracking back. I can see why he's not played. -

Are they blind to the shortcomings on the pitch? All I've heard from JDT is that this is a project and it's going to take time to get promoted. Sounds to me like a manager that's seen the players train and knows they're simply not good enough. -

We'll see - it's clear that our behind-the-scenes set up was amateur at best when Broughton arrived. He's clearly been addressing that. He talks a good game - he needs the contacts in the sport now to bring in a gem or two in January to strengthen this squad. -

4 golden chances - what the fuck was that, Dack?! -

LOL three goals they'll never score again. -

Yes, there's a reason every game can go that way and why we never come from behind - we can't finish. -

That should be Rathbone's second yellow card. -

Personally think his distribution has been very poor today, but he's showing signs of life as a backup player at least. -

The prick with the alice band should have been booked for that foul on Garrett. -

Agreed, this is a big window for us. The prior window they didn't have a great deal of time and still got some quality in. This window it's clear we don't have a great deal of money so it has to be spent wisely. A goal scoring #9 would transform this team. -

We literally train at Ewood when Brockhall is frozen. JDT wants them training and playing on grass, end of. -

We're not though, are we. They've swung their foot through two balls from 20+ yards out and they've both ended up in the back of the net. That's literally all they've created today. -

The last regime spent £12m on two strikers that can't trap a ball. I'm not going to tar JDT and Broughton with the same brush just yet. -

The other thing screaming out in this performance, as it does every week, is that we have absolutely no pace. -

We both know he needs replacing, but it's a long term project to get this squad anything like. -

I bet he's quicker in a sprint that Dolan and Markanday and he's certainly significantly bigger. As I've repeatedly said I'd love to move on from him, but you've got to wee with the willy you've got. I'm by no means defending him.
