I'm waiting for a referee strong enough NOT to blow up when a defender falls over on the ball facing their own goal. That's never a foul by Buckley.

A good manager would have us competing for automatic promotion with this squad. Especially with these resources.

Brereton came on at 60 mins. Not a coincidence.

You know Dack can't play 90 minutes yet. Besides in desperate times I've never been a fan of starting a player knowing you have to use a sub on him at some point.

The 5 subs rule is actually terrible for Mowbray. He feels inclined to constantly tinker and give everyone a game.

I'd be embarrassed if I was Lenihan. An 18 year old who doesn't know the name of half his teammates has completely outshone him.

Well I wouldn't have brought him on. But, gun to my head, I wouldn't put him in a position that he's consistently and repeatedly failed at. Put him upfront or don't play him.

Watch him put Gallagher out right...

Yep, my focus switched to survival in December. Playoffs were gone by then and we were in such bad form that every point was crucial. Sadly nothing has changed.

I'd bring Brereton and Davenport on. I'd take Johnson and Travis off (he's on a yellow and doesn't look match fit). Revert back to 4-3-3. Play Dack in CM with Davenport and Rothwell.

What the fuck is Dack doing taking the ball off the toes of our CBs?! They literally must just meet up for the first time each week in the car park.

As several posters have stated, we're just filling up Mowbray's pension pot. There's no accountability at this club. He's on easy street. At any proper club Mowbray would have been fired by now.

Johnson was there too - both failed.

Elliot has been really poor today.

I'm not an expert on pitch maintenance, but it's not like we have the same issue as the DW Stadium - we've seen luscious pitches at Ewood. If the groundsman has enough resources and the pitch still looks like this, replace the groundsman. If he's a well respected groundsman, but doesn't have the resources, up the investment.

It's been crap for most of the Venky's reign of terror. They don't care about the infrastructure.

How quickly people forget that Brereton has been our player of the season so far.

Good to see Rothwell shoved wide left too, where he's proven time and again he's a world beater out there. 🙄

It is a wonder that Mowbray is happy to throw these PL teenagers into the fray, but had to have a gun placed to his head to play Travis, Nyambe, JRC, Wharton, Davenport and Buckley. He refers to them as 'young lads' when they're a quarter through their professional careers - they're in their early 20s. Baffling man manager. Baffling man.

His problem, much like JRC, is that he's not an athlete.

He's been floundering for a while, trying to get us to play 4-2-3-1. He stumbled across 4-3-3 in the lockdown, but now this has been found out too. He doesn't have any more answers. He's lost.

He had a shot blocked from a corner, otherwise no.

He's the only one who holds the ball up in our front 3. He needs to work on his finishing for sure, but he's still a work in progress. Most importantly he fucking runs his socks off for 90 minutes and provides a constant outlet. He's the least of our problems.

Fair enough. In Dolan I see a talented (albeit physically limited - he's small and is never going to be anything more than 'quick') player who needs to seriously refine his game before he's ready to start for the first team. That said I'd have him in ahead of Gallagher as a RAM any day of the week.
