I describe 'getting hammered' as being played off the park. A sliced shot, a 25 yard 'swing your foot through it' and a GK letting a corner go in direct does not equal hammered to me - but again I appreciate I watch a different game to most. -

We have a serious problem with quality - nobody can consistently hit the back of the net. Goals win games and we don't score enough of them. We had 4 golden chances today and missed them all - that's baffling. They didn't craft 1 clear cut chance and scored 4. -

It would free up my Saturday afternoons - so maybe I should get on this bandwagon. It's certainly not fun watching a different game to most Rovers fans every week and trying to explain yourself. -

Did we get hammered? They won't score those first three goals again all season. We created the 4 best chances of the match and contrived to miss them all. -

I'm happy for most of the dressing room to leave if someone else picks up their wages. -

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. -

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. -
