No debate about it - the defender has had to play the ball because the striker is running in behind him. Therefore, he's influenced the play - offside.

Coventry have just signed their 7th player of the window (and gone way over the money they received for that Swedish fella).

Pre season 23/24

Have we been playing 4-3-3 in the pre-season? -
23/24 kit; is a new sponsor needed?
Exiled_Rover replied to alex l's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
A traditional home shirt design that they continue to get wrong? Reversed. Halves. -
Where's Ethan Walker in the pecking order? He wasn't sent to Austria, but he's stood out when I've briefly watched the U21s.

Rugby League

And they wonder why RL is dying on it's arse. National tv audience and the game has been decided by a disgraceful call by the referee. -
Bairstow scored another 60+ runs at a rapid rate - no problem with the lack of declaration in this match. We've lost 2 days due to rain - you're never getting a result in a proper Test.

I went this year for a T20 - lovely ground.

Who is Norwood and how much do they want for him? -

Save us, Harry Leonard, you're our only hope. -

That's our second XI yet somehow we're losing £20m a year - literally 9 Academy graduates in the starting XI (and 8 on the bench). -
Johnny, it's a lovely story that you've got back to playing Test cricket and I'm pleased those worse outcome scenarios didn't transpire - but that doesn't mean I'll overlook how bad you are behind the stumps.

Give over.

He has just spent 3 weeks training with Gallagher, Dolan and Hedges - he knows they're not going to score. -
You only rate 3 of our Academy graduates? They seem to think Leonard, Edmondson, O'Grady-Macken and Fyles have something about them (and potentially Gilsenan).

I'm as 'realistic' as they come, but we are missing 2/3rds of our summer signings. They'd both start. Tronstad is a damn sight better than Morton too imo. Obviously ideally we'd bring in 2-3 more starters (it used to be 3-4, but there's no way we'll bring in 4 at this point). -

Exiled_Rover replied to alex l's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I've decided to dedicate my life to becoming the Rovers Commercial Director so I can insist that every kit (home and away) is reversed halves. It's really not that fucking hard, lads. It's an ok kit (although not a big fan of a dark blue away kit when we play in blue and white), but it completely throws away our USP. -
Leicester City haven't been picked clean like I thought they would be - and they're doing a lot of transfer business. Looks like they're trying to buy their way back into the PL at the first time of asking.
-
I think you mean Derbyshire better not woo the fringe Lancashire players who are better than Vilas / deGrandholmme et al, but their faces don't fit. e.g. they missed out on Lamb, he's already off to Sussex.
-
The whole reason 'The Hundred' exists is because the ECB invented T20 and then didn't copyright / patent it. They're trying to close the stable door well after the horse has bolted - to the detriment of the Counties I might add.

No - but they took two 16 year old CBs... -
This is brilliant marketing
Exiled_Rover replied to philipl's topic in I Can't Believe It's Not Football
Pretty much. I used to live across the road from the Etihad Stadium (in the old athletes accommodation for the Commonwealth Games). I'd pop over to the Academy stadium to watch the City women play if I had a free weekend - it's when they had Bronze, Christensen, Beattie, Bardsley etc - a veritable who's who. It was enjoyable for what it was, but it was worse than men's non-league standard. -

Speaking of - no Walker again. Is he just not highly thought of at Rovers? He's 20 now and plays wide - should be knocking down the door if he's got anything about him. -

Looked pretty standard fare to me - the Championship is a clogger's league.
