  1. Another opposing commentary team singing Rothwell's praises.
  2. Khadra is definitely a winger. He's fluffed a few opportunities in tight quarters now.
  3. I'm torn. It's nosebleed time so we'll probably lose - however he's once again stumbled on a formation / starting XI that works and has only tinkered due to injuries. It must be killing him.
  4. Put in a terrific block in the first half too. Just a proper CB. Ayala is too.
  5. That was a forearm shiver. I wouldn't be surprised if he's out for the weekend. He looked concussed.
  6. I'm Nyambe's biggest fan but we're playing with 10 today. Horrendous performance.
  7. Neat and tidy on the ball and much more defensively sound. In this formation you're choosing between Buckley and Rothwell really.
  8. Even then, during said run we were humiliated on TV. Guess which part will live longer in the memories.
  9. 'Amenable, knowledgeable and honest', but completely unqualified to be the Chief Executive Officer of Blackburn Rovers FC.
  10. Give over, he's terrible at developing talent. Let's look at your list: In the space of a week Buckley has played at RB, as a False 9 and as an AMC. He tried to shoehorn Rothwell into the AML role for two years and now alternates him between AMC and CM. Travis he's beaten the creativity out of - he's forced him to be a DM when in reality he had the potential to be a quality CM (a classic Box-to-Box one at that). Brereton carved a role out for himself at AML because Mowbray didn't know what to do with him. The only playing time he gave to his £7m man in his first year was as a 10 minute sub every other game.
  11. There's only a 10% chance we'll get someone better if you picked someone out of the Blackburn End. If you actually opened up the job to qualified applicants you'd be hard pressed not to improve on him.
  12. It's not cricket - a football captain isn't out there making tactical decisions. Plus I genuinely don't think Lenihan gets into the starting XI on merit when everyone is fit.
  13. Travis going over to congratulate Khadra on a great game as he's subbed off. How he's not the captain is beyond me.
  14. They have more talented players than we do. Bad manager, obviously.
  15. The pass from Travis was the best of the move. Lovely weight to it.
  16. Wharton has been by far our best defender. Edun I'm afraid to say can't defend.
  17. Once again the officiating at this level remains a joke. Stonewall penalty.
