It's JDT fault why attendances are so poor? over 13k Rovers fans on. Why won't it last? second in the league, 6 home wins on the bounce and 8 clean sheets so far. to do what today? Why is it luck tho?

Rovers deserved the win and we controlled the first 60 mins. First half we kept possession of the ball and we played with confidence. We had 2 very good chances in the first 2 minutes. Pickering played a wonderful ball over the top to BBD who does what he does best and score goals for Blackburn Rovers! We should have been 3 nil after 60 mins. Then Huddersfield came into the game and had to couple of chances, after that JDT change formation and took Gallagher who was shattered for Scott Wharton, which I think was wrong move cos I would have brought Garrett in for Gallagher and gone to control the midfield battle instead. Bringing on Scott Wharton just give them the ball more and we sat back far too much for my likely. I agree with Vale and Dolan subs. Brittain was my man of the match. He was outstanding today and show why Rovers wanted him for over 12 months and why I said he was the right signing for the right back slot. Pickering and Morton were good aswell. I would pick the same starting 11 against the dingles next week. Gallagher and Hedges shown today why we missed them so much when they aren't playing. Bring the dingles on now. second in the league and 6 home wins on the bounce is an excellent start. JDT's Blue and White Army!!! 🔵⚪

Yes Ewood Park is fortress now and fans were excellent today. 8 clean sheets so far and 6 wins on the bounce at home, second in the league after 20 games is excellent under our new head coach

He is a very good striker and should be on the shortlist to replace BBD if we do sell. Ross Stewart from Sunderland is another player I hope we are looking at. I wouldn't expect more than 2 signings in January. Rovers spent more in the summer than you thought we would. I think Joe Hilton our 3rd choice keeper might be worth a shot over Pears, But JDT seems to think Pears is the better back up keeper. I would Garrett here and playing here. He has shown he is ready to play his part in the squad.

Both are fit to play Miller11 and hopefully both will start tomorrow and rest for the West Ham game ready for the proper Lancashire derby. Wildly? Garrett gets his foot in and that what we need at times. His red card at Coventry was rightly rescinded and it was never a red card in month of Sundays. Ref sent him off cos of the Coventry players reaction. simple as.

JDT's comments have been the same from day 1 and he hasn't changed his stance that is project and time will be needed

Morton will go back and whether Hirst and Mola will sign here permanently will be decided by their performances and nothing else. Who knows what BBD will do. He might stay or he might go but I don't think Rovers should sell him in January for any fee full stop. Phillips will replace Ayala in the squad. Plus, I was talking about the number of changes behind the scenes aswell.

JDT doesn't need self-preservation does he really? He isn't going to get sacked any time soon and has us in the top 6. Given this is a new project within a new footballing management structure plus the amount of other changes happening within the club we are ahead of where I think we would be in the league in terms of league position.

Yes Matty, you are correct on this point. I mistype the word I meant. Rovers aren't demanding promotion this season from JDT which is right given the amount of changes going on at the club. Its a project and we are only 4 months into this but we are within the top 6 now and I think we have a good chance of top 6 this season. Keeping BBD for the rest of the season, keeping key players fit and improve our consist will decide whether we get top 6 this season

Rovers have said he us under pressure to delivered promotion this season. Reported by Sky Sports several times during games

Like I posted to you on the 20th June when we were talking about Vale. I said this. Not writing him off at all. " His movement, ability to finish, running in behind defence are the things I think are his strengths. " its another question that has been asked before and reply. JDT and GB pick him has his first choice striker. JDT knows about strikers. cos I don't worry like you do. Its will take time but I'm sure we will get there. No didn't concern at all cos JDT explained the situation around Hirst not playing in those games.

LT reported the story in May. Hardly gossip was it. https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/20173107.blackburn-rovers-must-avoid-adam-armstrong-repeat/ He could have signed Liam Delap on loan but didn't.

Hopefully Both will be back.

Mowbray had more money to spend what he did in the end so maybe it's time you blame Mowbray not the owners. Mowbray was very good at spinning it last January that we had no money. You see a number of posters who have posted that we had a bigger January budget that Mowbray was saying like our bid for Ryan Longman that was around 700k That would be from next season wouldn't it not this one? On signings, I would just add one or 2 players. a backup right back unless we bring back James Brown in January and cancel his loan spell at Stockport. Then a left side attacker player who can back up BBD for rest of the season and then replace him in the summer.

Cardiff to Blackburn is about 3 and half to 4 hours drive so they wouldn't really need to set off till 7am. The roads would be quiet. On Public transport, it isn't reliable one bit and it's getting worse with train strikes, likely bad weather in the coming. Clubs should be making club transport cheaper, so fans use that form of transport instead of relying on public transport in my opinion. On the beer point, That down to personal choice.

No there isn't. No I would keep here within the first team squad and learning under JDT stewardship No, I would keep him here for the season. I still think there is a player there and he had a similar spell at Portsmouth at the start then in November he scored his first goal for them, and he improved more after Christmas time and ended with 13 goals. So maybe he needs to be fully match fit first. I mentioned this last night at work that we struggled away from home midweek and as @goozburgerpost in the Jon Dahl Tomasson highlights this. It is somewhat a concern but another post from @MarkBRFCseems like we struggled midweek for long period time away from home. The Sky Commentator mentioned that they were a couple of other teams who are similar to us. Highlights how important the first goal is at this level especially away from home. JDT does has questions about how last he left it last night. I did comment on Travis playing wing back last night saying he didn't get forward and it didn't work playing him there. Also said he left his subs far too late last night. Would have like to see Pickering and Dolan on much sooner and us switch to playing 4-2-3-1 formation much sooner. So yes, some concerns but I would say that overall, it's been very good start to the season, and we are much higher in the league then I thought we would be given the number of things I have mentioned in previous posts to you on similar subject

I don't do wind ups Dreams as you should really know given my long-term posting history on here Firstly, Dack and Markanday aren't strikers. Leonard isn't ready yet. I think Vale is better coming off the bench. So Yes, I would start Hirst if Gallagher were not fit enough to start. I won't write him off like many others have, and I will back the Rovers recruitment department, Gregg Broughton and Jon Dahl Tomasson.

Hirst

At the minute I can't do many away games for personal circumstances Matty. After next season I will be doing a lot more. I was going Wigan away but it was cancelled for obvious reasons. I will be looking to go PNE away and another away game if possible

We have to disagree Butty

Rovers have been poor today and deserved nothing for the game. Created very little, Passing poor as I have seen first half. Not really created a clear-cut chance all night. No standout performance from any player. Subs too late for, should have been on early. Travis at right wing back didn't get forward at all. Hopefully Hedges and Gallagher is back for Huddersfield game. I would go back to playing 4-2-3-1 formation and Bring Pickering back in for Ayala, Travis for Hedges, Vale for Gallagher. So, my team would be Kaminski; Brittain, Hyam, Wharton, Pickering; Morton, Wharton; Hedges, Szmodics, BBD; Gallagher

Hope Rovers appeal that red

never a red card. The ref reaction cos of the Coventry players reaction.

Been like this for years after years. When we played in Europe we had games at 6pm didn't we or played Sunday after Thursday night game. Or moved for TV coverage like when we played Arsenal at home or United at home. Did we complain then? no we didn't. We are doing well and, in the promotion hunt, so always likely to see kick offs changes
