v Wrexham (h) - 1/1/26
MarkBRFC replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Thing is, and I've been guilty of it myself over the years, hastily predicting we will lose the next game after a rotten defeat. Said the same against Preston after the limp display against Derby, and the same against Milwall after that dreadful defeat at Portsmouth. I bet we don't lose against Charlton, not 100% we will win but I dont think we'll lose. -
Valérien Ismaël: Blackburn Rovers Head Coach
MarkBRFC replied to DE.'s topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Cheaper to sack him than make the 4 new signings that he apparently wants. -
2025-26 Relegation thread

We'll stay up because Oxford, Portsmouth and Charlton are as bad if not worse than us. -
v Wrexham (h) - 1/1/26
MarkBRFC replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
For me that game epitomises the venkys era at this club. A Slow, ponderous, small, weak, thick team with a rubbish manager that had no clue what they were meant to be doing out there. All while wearing a North End kit. We will stay up because Charlton & Oxford are just as bad as us, but christ its going to be a hard watch. -
The January 2026 Transfer Window
MarkBRFC replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
We haven't been ready for the January window in any of the last 5 years, what on earth makes you think it will be any different this time? -
The January 2026 Transfer Window
MarkBRFC replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
That happens everywhere and would be naive to suggest it doesn't. If Rovers were as ready as they claimed, then they would know if the player wanted to join, and what the fee would be for him. If they have had a bid rejected, it shows they haven't really done any planning at all. -
The January 2026 Transfer Window
MarkBRFC replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Ismael banging on about how we're ready for the transfer window and that all the players will be ready to integrate themselves in the FA Cup game. First bid for a player rejected. Guess we're not that ready then?! -

It's just pie and peas i think? -
The January 2026 Transfer Window
MarkBRFC replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Or they could sign an actual striker that does play that role rather than trying to shoehorn someone in who hasn't played that role before. -
The January 2026 Transfer Window
MarkBRFC replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Seeing as it doesnt look like he's played as a striker so far, thats probably the plan. This lot just wing it from one transfer window to the next don't they. -
v Wrexham (h) - 1/1/26
MarkBRFC replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
That team we finished the game with on Monday isn't catching anyone on the break. Slowest side we have had in many a year, and thats saying something. -

Would be classic of this regime if we starting signing wingers all of a sudden for 532 formation. -
The January 2026 Transfer Window
MarkBRFC replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
If he was to sign he would be played up front, a Kargbo replacement as I think if he hadn't been injured he would have been used as a striker too. -
v Wrexham (h) - 1/1/26
MarkBRFC replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Imagine being in a world where i just cant imagine us getting anything at home against a side that was in non league just over 2 years ago. -
v Wrexham (h) - 1/1/26
MarkBRFC replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
They haven't wanted fans to be here since they took over, no matter how much they preach. They all would snap your hands off for everything to be behind closed doors again. -
How long until the end of Venkys?
MarkBRFC replied to ilian22's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
This lot will be here for years yet, no matter what anyone does. -
The January 2026 Transfer Window
MarkBRFC replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Maybe, you can't do that in the hope he will sign a new deal though when its clear he is nowhere near ready. -

That Tyjon news shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone. It was clear when he didn't sign a deal when he turned 17 that he wasn't going to. -
v Sheffield Wednesday (a) - 29/12/2025
MarkBRFC replied to JHRover's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Can only go off what we have seen this so far this season. Dlamini showed more with that turn to beat his man in the middle of the pitch than Gueye has shown since March. -
v Sheffield Wednesday (a) - 29/12/2025
MarkBRFC replied to JHRover's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I think so. Seen enough of Gueye to last me a lifetime. Can pretty much gaurentee that he would have been even less effective than Henriksson/Dlamini was as we have seen the evidence already this season. -

Both have the same amount this season though. Poor players. -
v Sheffield Wednesday (a) - 29/12/2025
MarkBRFC replied to JHRover's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Sheffield Wednesday while a bad side, aren't the pushovers they were back in August/September either. Scored twice and were unlucky not to beat Hull the other day who are flying. Two shattered sides who have to play two more games before the end of the week due to the ridiculous schedule. Inexpect very similar performances against Wrexham and Charlton. -
v Sheffield Wednesday (a) - 29/12/2025
MarkBRFC replied to JHRover's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
This always happens when a player isn't selected for a few games on here. Believe me, Henriksson offers much more up top than Gueye, and thats saying something. -

MarkBRFC replied to JHRover's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Maybe I am softening up, probably because my expectations are at rock bottom after 15 years of this ownership, but the only thing missing last night was a finisher. We controlled most of the game, and there wasn't that much wrong until we got to the final third, lack of urgency and quality in attack cost us 2 points. Cantwell though, for a player so talented I have never seen anyone as bad at striking a ball towards goal. Woeful.
