v Sheffield United (a) - 3/5/2025
Exiled_Rover replied to ...'s topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I agree with most of that. I'd argue the recruitment in the summer was excellent considering the miniscule budget. Gueye cops far too much stick on here - we're a different proposition as a team when he's on the pitch, he gives us physicality and an out ball (not to mention how good he is defensively on set pieces). Ohashi doesn't provide that - and neither will Leonard (if he ever plays for us again). Cantwell flattered to deceive at times, but he really is playing with crap wide players who offer him nothing. He needs to be taken off set pieces and just given license to play a free role as a #10. The January recruitment was diabolical (although I quite like Sanderson and Ribeiro) and the reason we ultimately missed out on the Playoffs - and a factor in Eustace making us look like a laughing stock by going to Derby. -

Yeah not as bad as Bootlicker Dunn, but pretty poor form. -
There isn't one this year, unfortunately. You can't rely on your Academy to produce First Team quality players every season, it just doesn't work that way.

Hope he does more for us than his dad ever did here.

That's the craziest thing - with all this disfunction behind the scenes (absent and now penny-pinching owners, self-serving clowns in the Board Room) we've still finished 7th twice in three seasons. With the right leadership we'd be a PL club again. -

Who wasn't up for it? You have to understand from 1-11 (and 12-17), Sheffield United had better players across the park. You can't go gung-ho because they'll tear you apart with the pace and ability they have. We gave a very good account of ourselves - a draw at Bramall Lane is a good result, it's losing to the likes of Plymouth, Cardiff, Derby et al that have shafted us (on the pitch at least). -

The reason they've finished so far ahead of the pack if because all of those 7 changes would walk into our first team. They brought Hamer back, ffs. He's their player of the season. -

Leeds, Burnley and Sheffield United are by far the best teams in the division - and two of them got embarrassed in the PL last year. -

I was more annoyed with his attempt to pass the ball into the box from Kargbo's cross. Completely unchallenged at the back post and he mishits it. Should have brought it down for himself or shot. He's been a disgrace for us. Up there with Murphy et al. -

A second rate Sheffield United team on 92 points? -

I wouldn't bring Dennis on - he's been an awful signing. -

Would have been nice to get a competent ref and have been given one of those pens. Alas competent refs are few and far between. -

Gueye and Kargbo on for Ohashi and Hedges at half time for me. -

His dead ball delivery is poor - surely we have someone better? -

He cannot lead the line - he needs to play off someone. Gueye should always start when fit. -

Their RB should have given up 2 pens. -

They're the best team we've played all season, they properly bottled the automatics. -

Imagine being that petty after watching 15 years of your rival having their face stamped in by an oppressive Indian boot. No wonder they have the reputation around the football world that they do. -

Sadly forums are dying out. Gotta appreciate what you have - the modern way is shouting into the void on social media. -
