time they get realistic and look how long it took them to get promoted from league 1 Mowbray has limited involvement in transfers and contracts there

here you are again and you even asked questions from my summary didn't you if my memory serves me right https://www.brfcs.com/forums/topic/35019-steve-waggott/?do=findComment&comment=2346823

I've never said he was wrong for not bring Dack on tho in my post. Do you not think that there is far too much focus on Dack not being involve more in the games I wouldn't move BBD central cos his best position is attacking from the left.

I had a meeting with Waggott and I gave a summary of the meeting on here. I'm still confident that Brittain and Pickering can deal with them

We don't know whether he is physically fine or not cos we don't have the data and what JDT and his staff seen in training and in games, but given his lack of involvement in the last 2 months would that not signal to yourself that JDT doesn't see him as important player like yourself or others do in his team selection, what he demands on and off the ball, etc?

Given his sending off for dissent today for the under 23's plus his lack of playing time I expect in 2 months' time, he will be leaving us probably for another championship team. He only gets 8 points on the work permit points system but Rovers could appeal against it given his age and say he is future international player. Some good finishes there

Well maybe he shouldn't mention on a forum already then Benson played up front for them against Sheffield United. Brittain was my man of the match and I thought he deserved his award yesterday. Pickering and Morton was also very good yesterday We got the best home record in the league with 8 wins and 2 losses this season. Ewood Park is now a fortress

thanks for reply. It's been years since I bought a pint at Rovers.

They only got 40,000 in 2 home games and Saturday home game to Cardiff they got 27,015

Is there a focus on reducing our wage budget right now? I would say no there isn't but focusing on building a team that can play the way JDT wants and get us promote and stay there. I would say that Dack just doesn't suit how and what JDT wants from his players on and off the ball. We won yesterday cos the team won the game, and we get the points by having better quality at key times and being resolute and battling for the points. Yes of course JDT can be questioned on the team not being able to get back into games and JDT and the players need to look at that problem, but a couple of other teams are similar in the championship as Sky Commentator said during the Coventry away game. On Vale's performance yesterday, He was decent enough for me. Show a couple of good moments of link up play. I still think some Rovers fans focus on Dack far too much and Fans think he is our saviour every time. Yes I think JDT has made some mistakes in games, and I ever said yesterday in the Huddersfield match thread that I thought he should have brought on Garrett for Gallagher and not Scott Wharton and go 5 at the back.

I would play Vale and Edun in this game. Mola is injured at the minute I believe from @1864roveritepost last week

I don't know why Sunderland fans think they should be higher in the league. They just got promotion and being mid table in your first season is a good first season in my opinion unless you invest massively

is this in the Blackburn end? How much is a pint of beer now at Rovers?

our loss? we are second in the league without any major impact from Dack so have we actually missed him or has JDT moved the team on from being over reliant on Dack and where he is just a bit part player. On the Sunderland link, well it's no surprised given that Mowbray went public over a private conservation with Dack about his fitness level. I think he will go there in January or he will leave Rovers for another club for certain

Why would he be under any pressure to jettison Dack cos of his wages? We are second in the league without any major impact from Dack in all honestly the team is moving on from Dack and that it's appears that JDT's plans don't have Dack has any more than abit part player. Is JDT wrong for not selecting Dack when you consider our position in the league table and point table?

My team for this game Kaminski Brittain Hyam Wharton Pickering Travis Morton Hedges Szmodics BBD Gallagher

Yes we would all like to know

aren't Philips and Mola injured? No Vale or Hirst? Szmodics needed resting for the Dingle game for me.

No surprise this is going to happened. They have been poor this season but who they turn to will be interesting.

He didn't look 100% and around 60 mins he was shattered. Rest him for West Ham game so fit for the Burnley away game.

Pickford is the number 1, Ramsdale as number and Pope number 3. I don't see TAA any better than 4th choice at best for the full back/wing back option. Tripper, James and Walker all ahead of him. Tomori should be in the 5 centre backs I would be taking along with Ben White, John Stones, Eric Dier and Connor Coady. I expect Southgate will pick Maguire tho.

I can't West Ham putting alot of first team players given that League and Europe are their priorities really

Ok fair enough. Well he can midfield as his time Chelsea shows. At Stuttgart he played left back mostly.

Pears has played in both Cup games. I don't him not playing if Kaminski wasn't available

I think it will happen and been saying that Mowbray was appointed at Sunderland. Then his comments about Dack only back this up.
