v Hartlepool Utd (h) - Carabao Cup, 10/8/22
jny replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Almost as good as Wolfgang Wolf of Wolfsburg -
Think it's more to do with Financial Fair Play to be fair, they're on a limited budget and can't afford the outlay on lots of big names

Transfer Window - COMPLETE. Where’s Gregg?
jny replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Might be a blessing in disguise if it pushes the club to invest in one JPVH (one can dream...) -
Transfer Window - COMPLETE. Where’s Gregg?
jny replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Rubbish, we've barely seen him play. Give him a chance at least, arguably best player in the league on his day. -

Ha, forgot about that one 😂 (I meant the one before that!) -

The last kid we had on loan from Liverpool wasn't all that bad, as I recall. -

I'd be interested to know goals scored vs crosses made this season, piss poor from Mowbray -
January Transfer window 2022
jny replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Okay, by what metric then? History of the club? -
January Transfer window 2022
jny replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I think the £10m bonus for the team if they go up, probably tells you they are. Honestly why do people think it's that easy to get players to sign a new contract - we're an unfashionable club in an unfashionable area punching above our weight in a precarious financial position who can't afford to offer top wages to most of our players and are trying to run things on a shoestring. -
He's scored one goal on the bigger stage. I think it might just be a touch premature to say, "his potential is starting to be realised" and we need to tie him down NOW to be honest.
-
I disagree with the last part, on the whole we very much have above average players and with the right manager could've actually done something this season. Now any quality in that squad appears to be about to evaporate, and the journeyman manager appears, for once, to be going nowhere.

Good or bad Friday depending on the result
jny replied to perthblue02's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Seen it all, I'm already there -
Tomori definitely at the moment. I can't help thinking Gomez, Stones and, to a lesser degree, Konsa look better because of the players around them.
-
I don't know why Wan-Bissaka has never been tried as a right centre back. It's so infuriating that we have a player who's so defensively sound (when England are lacking good defensive players and who clearly isn't an attacking full back), and we might lose him to the DR Congo team because he won't even get in the squad with the embarassment of talent we have at right back already. Seems obvious, but that's not the way football works (as we well know).

Bristol City v Rovers. Wed 9th Dec. 7.45pm
jny replied to darrenrover's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Elliott though, what a player, some genuinely Pirloesque passes in that game -

Completely agree, just doesn't have the tactical nous. -

Elliot looking sensational every time he's on the ball, Ayala looking shaky, Armstrong selfish -

Too wasteful in attack, and too open at the back... It's enough to cause a heart attack -

And we still had more on target than them ? -

Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak for me -
What's the highest level of football you have played?
jny replied to Aqualung's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I've never played at a high level, but my step brother was the best in the area and a youth player for Hartlepool, though didn't make the cut/got bored of playing and didn't play again for years after. However, no word of a lie, he used to play upfront with none other than Arma (for a team called Newcastle City Juniors) for a few years. You could already see then he was something special as he was playing in the first team of the best club in the area despite being a year younger than everyone else (this was when they were about 9 or 10). Proper weird seeing someone you used to watch on a cold Sunday turn out for Rovers now (quite aware this sounds like total bs, but it's absolutely true haha) -
Rovers v QPR Sat 7th November
jny replied to darrenrover's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Great result. We need to use the impetus to move up the table though, if we're still languishing around mid table come January we won't be viewed as a competitive prospect and we'll lose the likes of Arma -
Coventry v ROVERS
jny replied to Hoochie Bloochie Mama's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Why does Tony persist on playing Gally out wide, why not let him get on the end of some of those Douglas/Holtby chances and put Armstrong out wide
