  1. And I have spent more than you have on following the team, so does that mean that I have even more right than you do to spout whatever opinions I like?

    The difference though chesh, is that you COULD get to Rovers without a driver, without taking the Jag and having 2 fuel stops, without having to pay a man to get you a port, without having to pay someone to take you to your directors box and without having a gold plated ticket made by elizabeth duke for each match.

  2. Me and flopsy will spend about £50 each when we come up for the WBA game.

    Me and T4E spent about £50 each at the spurs game.

    Seeing as i didn't spend much, i can only moan about one player.

    Not much has changed then!

  3. Dave, i don't need a scapegoat for last season. It was a shitter and i felt every blow of it. Just because i think Emerton had a very dissapointing season after seeing what he is capable of and i make an opinion it means i'm not giving him a chance? I've been hearing in reports that he's been poor in friendlies against pub teams and Stockport, doesn't make good reading does it?

    I couldn't give two flying sausages if Brett Emerton gets dropped after 5 games, never plays again and leaves Blackburn Rovers.

    I'm more bothered about the team getting results and winning than Brett Emerton.

    If he starts this season by beating every left back in each games i'll be delighted. If he beats half the left backs he plays against, i'll be delighted. If he plays this attacking minded role he's been speaking of so much i'll be over the sodding moon. As we'll most likely get the results we deserve. If he doesn't, then yes, i will be on his back and mainly because i want whats best for the team. Not whats best for Brettys precious confidence.

  4. Birmingham City have pretty much a full house every week. The Gold brothers and Sullivan the porn king have a fortune. Thats where their money comes from.

    We on the other hand struggle to get 3/4 full stadium for some matches. We HAD a pretty high wage bill. Therefore, our money has to be invested in keeping the club alive.

    We've got some good young(ish) players on our books which will hopefully hold a bright future. Nills Eric, Jay, Barry, Stead, Gallagher, this young lad Derbyshire is banging a few goals in the reserves and plenty more i've not seen play. The future can be good, lets hope the experienced players bring these young(ish) players through and help Rovers.

    I'm worried this season, but i'd be more worried if we'd spent 6 million on someone who we all pin our hopes onto. We've obviously still got money if we were planning to pay £1.25m for MGP and we've only spent 150k (Or something like that) so far. Which means we've still got £1.1m lying around, i personally would rather see us hold onto it until January. Especially the situations like Brad and De Pedro getting injured. Mind you, with those 2 injured Coles replacement could have filled the gaps. unsure.gif

    We've got 3 decent players for 150k and i fully expect us to bring others in in January.

  5. Give the lad a chance!

    I'm fed up of people saying that. I'm not going to sit in the Blackburn End and just curse the lad for 90 minutes, i'll want him to be on sodding fire and rip the opposition apart.

    But when you watch him for 15 (i think) games that i managed last year, you begin to realise that the lad is frustrating and very defensive minded. It's difficult to get your mind set on a different style of play if you've been playing the total opposite for god knows how many years.

    People, please realise this - I WANT BLACKBURN ROVERS TO SUCCEED - If this means dropping weaker players then what is the problem? If Golden Boy Stead stopped scoring for a season and wasn't looking himself people would being to worry and show concern as to why the lads on the bench aren't getting a go at where Stead is failing.

    Emerton came over here wanting an attacking role. I believe he rejected Newcastle as they wanted him to play right back. Now to play in an attacking role, you have to attack. The guy hasn't been doing his job for some time as noted by people on here and at matches.

    I don't take happiness from Brett failing to attack. I don't smile when he turns back and i certainly don't enjoy his corner taking when he hits the first man.

  6. I'd love us too as well den. But we're not exactly going to win all the trophies we take part in.

    I'd like us to get far, but with the size of our squad, i'm worried that we'd see injuries and fatigue to players if we went a fair distance in both cups and then see our league position suffer.

    Staying in the Premiership is more vital than winning a cup. Once we have a fairly large and strong squad, then we can move onto bigger and better things. Until then, we need to name at least 3 clubs we look stronger than this season and hope they're down their and we're not.
