Tony Mowbray's Reign...& is he off to Sunderland ?
Ricky replied to roversfan99's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Giles has just assisted the Boro goal against Tony’s Sunderland. -
Transfer Window - COMPLETE. Where’s Gregg?
Ricky replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
So you’re moaning that they haven’t got fees for players and then moaning that they did get a few for a player (Arma) in the same sentence… and those prices are questionable at best! We ain’t selling Nyambe for 2.5m when he only managed to get a 1 year deal at Wigan when he was free!!! -
A new 5 year contract. Good news after the recent contract issues we’ve had.

Wonder if we would look at any free left backs. There may be out of contract players who we could still pick up outside the window. Jetro Willems is an interesting one. Not a bad age and has a bit of Prem experience. -
Best stand to watch a game at Ewood?
Ricky replied to Nuttall is lost's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Atmosphere wise it’s the BB end. Best view of the game would be half way on the Jack Walker stand. -

Was Glen being strung along a bit with the Styles stuff? We clearly didn’t want him as he ended up on loan at Millwall. If we had a genuine interest then I’m sure we would have been a better option. -

Ricky replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
My only concern is his commitment towards the end of the season. Will it be in the back of his mind that a bad injury could result in him basically being unemployed. Will we even keep him past January or will we take a token offer. If we get promoted will he sign a new contract. Lots of questions. -

Just don’t think we can let him go for nothing with the mess our finances are in. If it’s £20m now or a free in the summer then I think we have to take the £20m now. -

We may be all done but that can change if we get a big BBD bid -

It’s an ok from me as well. At one point in the second half he panicked and literally hoofed the ball sideways to a Blackpool player who was on the edge of our box. -

Anel with two goals tonight. Think we missed out on a good one there 😞 -

I’m struggling with the Jordan Rhodes hadn’t proved himself either. He’d been scoring for fun for a couple of seasons before we signed him. -

unfortunately it makes zero difference what they are worth. The issue is our low gates and income which is what our wage bill needs to be based on. someone may be able to find a way to do it without us getting a point deduction under FFP but it would be risky. -

just trying to compute the SVDB not signing thing. Sure Chaddy was telling all and sundry that it was all signed and sealed and that we were just waiting for Liverpool to release the player if anyone dared to challenge him on it. Anyone would think he’s as in the dark as the rest of us and just feeding off Nickos tidbits. -
v Stoke (h) - Saturday 27th August 3pm
Ricky replied to joey_big_nose's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
That’s a shocking starting lineup if correct -

Ricky replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
So is SVDB not joining from Liverpool if we are going for the Cov lad? I’m sure Chaddy said it was a done deal about 100 pages back. -

100% we need to have the money and not get drawn into loan deals bringing the fee down. It needs to become a bidding war but the worry is that there just hasn’t been the concrete interest to date. Really need two or three teams at a minimum pushing for him. -

Of which you’ve made quite a few. -
v Sheffield United (a) - 20/8/22
Ricky replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Everyone apart from Chaddy was fully aware that we needed to strengthen the squad based on the players we lost. Also needed to do it by the start of the season and not by the end of the window. -
Ending the game with 3 of our back line all being played there out of position is a worry. It shows the fragility of the squad at the moment. We need some quality additions. The good news is that we will be an attractive option. You’d argue that we’ve had a hard start but we’re Flying.

You know that’s what’s known as ‘Doing a Mercer’ in these parts. -
West Brom looked very good tonight. Bit surprised that we are the only team to have not dropped any points after 2 games.
-
I’ll be home for that one. I was hoping the West Brom game would be on telly as it’s a Sunday game but looking doubtful.

v Swansea City (a) - 6/8/22
Ricky replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
How many tickets did we have available? I know I left it late but I had a look on Friday on the ticket pages of the website and there was no mention of Swansea tickets. Assumed we’d sold our allocation. I know sometimes the club have to pay for the tickets up front so wondered if we’d only gone for 500 and they’d all sold.
