v Plymouth Argyle (a) - 2/9/23

Very enjoyable this, I read… -
Jon Dahl Tomasson - no longer Sweden coach
Mattyblue replied to Tom's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Just need him to let me know to who. JDT? The players? The new bus? Though probably it’s to Phil himself for not applauding his wisdom, us east Lancs cave dwellers do disappoint him so… -
Jon Dahl Tomasson - no longer Sweden coach
Mattyblue replied to Tom's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
‘Apologise’? To who? 😄 It was a great win, nobody is suggesting otherwise, it’s in the history books in black and white. However, they were a very, very poor outfit, so it obviously doesn’t mean JDT is now a superior Rovers manager to Hughes and Souness on the back of it. Just silly to suggest so. -

Mattyblue replied to Tom's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
They were the reserve side of a fourth division outfit. Great fun all round, but it means absolutely nothing either way re JDT suddenly leapfrogging two club legends in Hughes and Souness on the back of it. You don’t half come out with some out there stuff. -
Now moved to the Sunday at noon due to the cup tie… the wait goes on!

v Harrogate (a) - 31/8/23 - Carabao Cup
Mattyblue replied to philipl's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Think you are getting a little carried away. We all enjoyed it, who wouldn’t? The development of these young lads is terrific, JDT’s approach to cup football is terrific. But saying this one result against a fourth division second XI now means JDT’s now our best manager since Kenny, that it’s ‘miraculous’, that the ‘magnitude isn’t registering’ with these uniquely miserable east Lancastrians is just a *tad* hyperbolic. As an example of your hyperbole, a side just seven places higher in the table than their opposition went there and won 7-0 a couple of years back, now that looks a far bigger achievement than giving Harrogate’s reserves a tonking. -

You’ve come to that conclusion post thumping a fourth division club’s second XI? I love the bloke, but he obviously can’t be seen as superior to Hughes or Souness at this stage. -
That story was from 9 days ago, nothing has changed since, I don’t think. Ease in after the international break is the plan, no?

‘Sulphurites’ though 👌 -

We’ll end up playing at a daft time on the Saturday night to avoid ‘fixture congestion, ‘player welfare’… then both sides will make 11 changes. -
v Harrogate (a) - 31/8/23 - Carabao Cup
Mattyblue replied to philipl's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Doesn’t bother me as long as they aren’t giving it the big ‘un when/if they score. Surely we’ve all taken an away fan with us to Ewood at some point or other. -
v Hull City (H) - 19/08/2023
Mattyblue replied to Polky's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
More attacking than Kenny and Souness? Not sure about that. It’s just that football tactics have changed since their era. -
23/24 kit; is a new sponsor needed?
Mattyblue replied to alex l's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Must be the earliest start ever for the annual kit shambles. -
Very, very bitter set of fans, unsurprising when unlike pretty much every other club in this region they’ve achieved the square route of feck all since Finney.

Don’t we all want that?

Atletico Madrid's new shirt
Mattyblue replied to Tricky's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Just like Athletic Bilbao, inspired by the mighty Rovers, indeed the belief is they got their first shirts from us. -
A load of their fans are.

You’ve literally just changed it 😄 -
A lawyer statement, no fault admitted on either side.

Amazing he can still pull off those multi-quotes he loves when he has half the board on ignore… -

Thanks for the quote, he’ll have to read my post now 😎 -

Think you needed a Nintendo. -
He’ll turn up at Fenerbache or the like (if not Saudi).
