Their #5 is just a thug.

I personally think Carter has done a fine job at RB. Obviously asking him to play RWB is a bridge too far.

I swear people watch different games to me.

And take the engine out of our midfield?

That guy was a mile offside.

Whenever we take Rothwell off we lose that link from midfield to attack. I like Davenport, but he just ticks things over - he can't carry the ball or hit the passes Rothwell does.

Who needs Armstrong, eh?

Shocking umpiring that.

Much better all-round keeper than Raya.

Of bloody course he does. Once again he's flooding our team with loanees. What a journey.

He can play RB once a week / fortnight with how thick and fast Championship games come / how often Nyambe gets injured.

They're a kick and rush team - fair play, if you're into that. They're also disgustingly cynical - I'd be embarrassed following that. Their RB must have taken 15 minutes out of the game with his time-wasting.

I was discussing this at the ground on Saturday. I'd be livid if I was a West Brom fan. Travelling all the way to Blackburn (admittedly it'd be a relief to get out of Birmingham) to watch that turgid football. The win takes the edge off it, but I go to matches to be entertained.

They have, yes. The unchecked greed of the Premier League has made football unsustainable for many clubs down the pyramid.

I suspect it's more Nyambe and Rothwell trying to get out of this basket-case club

He's a bloody good League 1 player judging by his loan signing last year. For me he should get an extended run in the side (hamstrings willing) as he offers something different - pace and dribbling ability. He won't though because laughably Mowbray doesn't think he works hard enough defensively - which is rich as he can't organise his back 4 can't keep a clean sheet regardless of who's in front of them.

Do you ever get the feeling this MB puts more effort into this transfers lark than Tony and his mates do?

Have you met the average person?

Yeah, imagine if the CEO wasn't wtf in London most weeks and his other mate wasn't trying to sell the training ground to line his pockets. It's a sorry state of affairs because we keep attracting parasites - and the Venky's keep hiring them. What I'm saying is the money and autonomy is there to turn this club around. We'll just never do it.

Phillips gave him the run around today.

You've also asked several people if their seats were facing the pitch today, so I'm not surprised you're astonished by a remark. The Venky's are as hands off as could be - as much as I hate them they plough £20m into the club each year and only stop spending money on transfers when someone tells them that they'll break FFP rules if we sign anyone else without selling someone first. You have carte blanche at Ewood Park if you're the Manager. This club is absolutely set up for an experienced / visionary young manager to come in and shape the club / team in his image. He'd have to fly to Pune occasionally to kiss their arses, but otherwise he'd be the lord of his own fiefdom. That and the Championship is a shite, shite league. Bring in some pace, physicality and organisation and you're a handful for literally every team in the division.

Has anyone got a replay of the two Brereton penalty appeals? Neither SKY or the Rovers highlights team deigned to put them into the package.

Looking at the squad Mowbray has assembled and his tactics, yes surviving is the height of our ambition. A good manager would get us out of this league with a summer to sort out his own squad.

https://www.skysports.com/watch/video/12387223/blackburn-1-2-west-brom Sky have done us dirty with the highlights.

That goal was coming - their keeper was playing a very high risk game and got caught out. If Gallagher had got a toe to that through ball he could have got their GK sent off.
