Morton in the Liverpool team as a deep lying playmaker next season. 🤦‍♂️ Yep, like I said the other day you really don’t understand the game.

Well they used to until TM suddenly decided last season that he didn’t like the indoor pitches… and now JDT has carried it on. Crazy, and Ewood is now a cabbage patch as a result.

Yep, I thought it was TM that suddenly decided he liked to do that. We never trained on Ewood repeatedly until last season. Now it seems to be the default every cold snap. Crazy when we have a poor pitch to start with.

It hasn’t had a full replacement for 30 years.

Why are we training on an already poor pitch repeatedly in bad weather when we have indoor pitches at Brockhall?

Swag putting out the Chad-Signal from the Jack Walker roof…

Why are you ‘baffled’ about a good pitch mattering to a football team?

Will he buggery! 😁

Microclimate in the Ribble Valley, obviously…

Still, bet Brentford wish they could be at the top end of the Championship instead…

Forget about Norwich, have a look at other pitches up here. Ours is a mess and has been for years. A chronic lack of investment in infrastructure over a decade will do that.

What a daft appointment Toure was for a club in the midst of a relegation battle.

All about the social media ‘impressions’ and ‘reach’. The fella in charge of the ‘socials’ will probably get a bonus if it goes viral.

Not necessarily the volume of games, as from yesterday onwards it’s one game a week until mid Feb, but more do you want to risk an injury to a key man when we have a pretty thin squad already?

Of course he has. And 99.9% of fans would agree with you. Which is why you shouldn’t get hot under the collar about the totally unrepresentative views of about a dozen people on a message board.

Mad opinions on a football message board baffle you? Not been visiting them long, I take it?

Still banging on about ‘down south’. 🤦‍♂️ JR and his missus are both northerners who have always lived up north apart from a brief spell at Oxford. So why would they be desperate to go to a generic ‘down south’, as guess what Oxford and Bournemouth are a bit of a distance away from each other! He went for a PL move and a huge wage increase. If anybody ‘oop north’ had have offered him more he’d probably have gone there.

Thought you said they were going to win the league?

In the wider fanbase obviously not, but this place oscillates wildly result to result. It will be the same daft posts from a dozen or so next time we lose a game.

Ewood the only ground to have a busy Christmas schedule?

Not anymore.

This you? (Feb 2022)

Very loud boos near me when he took Dack off (correct decision in my view as the game was passing him by with 10 men, but boo they still did)

About right for Rovers fans? Not sure about that, when was the last time we chanted for a managers head? Coyle, and before that Kean? Very patient bunch here and I can’t imagine many other set of fans have only gone after one manager in a decade. As a disclaimer, I don’t think they will actually chant ‘JDT out’ any time soon, just that he won’t get the free pass TM had…

Not sure about that, the Blackburn End was very close to turning the other night (closer than TM ever was in 5 years). Say we go a couple of goals down tomorrow…
