Wait, what?! I don’t think we will break 10,000 ST sales, can you explain this? Good to see the ST sale calculator return, btw.

It’s FREE on BRFCS! Despite there being a paid for ad free version of BRFCS, it’s all on the front page 1 minute after release. Incredible! No pressure, obviously: https://brfcs.com/magazine/premium

I love Adam Wharton as much as the next person, but let’s not forget Bellingham was the best player on the pitch almost every week for Birmingham and was younger than Adam. Adam needs another successful 12 months to be a 25M footballer.

They paid for access to City’s on deadline day because it’s easier to get people to (train, plane, motorway access). Usually it’s all done at Brockhall.

I think they’re both good players but neither where necessarily great signings

I think that’s harsh on Morton. I think quality wise he’s a good loan, my issue is that he’s a very similar player to Buckley and Wharton meaning three of our four central midfielders do the same thing. We needed something different. Also think it’s harsh on Thomas, if he had a genuine striker to work with he would have had much more success. If we had a 30 year old Danny Graham he’d have scored 20 league goals this season.

…because that will mean Waggott’s ploy to charge those willing to buy a ST regardless of price top whack, then sell Sky TV rights to every game regardless of effects on the dates or times of games, doesn’t generate the same amount of income.

See, when BRFCS decided to start making retro blue and white football shirts of no link to the Blackburn Rovers Football Club brand, we took pre-orders first to make sure there was enough demand to commit to the minimum order needed for it to be worth our while. Because we actually thought about it, rather than spending resource, money and time creating something that would have little uptake.

Win promotion & sack Waggott.

Email Lyndsay Talbot and arrange to drop it at Brockhall.

I think he’s spent the last 10 months talking about developing assets because he realises to generate budget he needs to develop and sell talent.

At some point early second half before they scored my phone said they had 0.34 xG. That’s all I know.

Where have you been these past 10 years or so?

I believe that effort on goal had an xG of 0.02. They had much more than that in total.

He’s quoted as saying it in local press, LET/Lancs Live/Radio Lancs.

Can someone pick me out a few of these big chances we had?

I’m not entirely sure they’ll have a choice, Tella will want to play at the top level and that will be with Burnley, not Southampton.

I thought they were better than us at the back and offered much more threat moving forward. Despite good midfield play, I didn’t once think we looked likely to score. Wharton was the best player on the park by far.

That wasn’t my question - do you think that offensively and defensively we where better than Burnley tonight?

Just to be clear you watched tonight and thought we defended better than they did and had more attacking threat than they did?

I think we had the two best performers in Wharton and Szmodics, but we weren’t the better team. They were better defensively and offensively than us.

The better team is the one that scores more goals than the other in my opinion. It’s was a close fought match and our total lack of fire power meant that much like in the league, we couldn’t compete.

I’m not at all into this “proud” rhetoric that goes around, especially on social media. Hyam looked out of sorts and has since his Scotland call up. Carter made plenty of errors. Pickering responsible for their goal. Travis looked poor first half especially and had no control over any element of the game. BBD did nothing again. Dolan has no understanding of football, his decision making was poor. Hedges had no impact on the game. Rovers security staff where all over the shop and had little control over the stands. Burnley won the championship at Ewood Park, making it six times in a row they’ve beat us and we’ve not scored in four. Short of Szmodics and Wharton (especially) who I agree where great, I don’t see much good this evening.

Absolutely. Watched all of this and the sheer confusion from the Rovers staff was incredible to watch. They weren’t expecting it to kick off, didn’t know how to react to it and where grossly under prepared. Another sign of Waggott’s cost cutting and dumbing down campaign if you ask me.

He was JDTs favourite at one point this season, wasn't he playing right back just to keep him in the team? Decent squad player if you ask me for the coming seasons. Although across the board they all need to be taught top level decision making. We've had a consistency of players make some very very stupid decisions over the past few years - Hedges not either going into the corner, scoring or putting the ball into row Z, Wharton not bringing the attacker down... all the way back to Sam Gallagher not taking the ball into the corner against PNE and i'm sure Armstrong did something stupid as well.
