Dingles on top here… City look like they can’t be bothered.

I’ve just come across this. Here’s the table at the same stage, last season.

AbsoluteIy fantastic set of results for us. It’s looking very rosy!

Excellent result- should have been more. I just hope people start returning. The lads deserve a big crowd!

Rowett’s a fantastic manager. I can see him taking them up eventually.

I doubt he’d leave them for us- they’ve just been took over, and look in stable hands.

Boro winning again- they look unstoppable. I’d say they’re on course for finishing second.

I’ve just watched it- Norwich looked bang average and void of ideas. #UpTheTonyMowbray

I’ll be blunt here- watching this reminds me of the dying days of when Allardyce was in charge. We haven’t got the players. Years of Waggot talking about revenues and refusing to spend more the £1.55 on a player… all for what? Probably the worst side Championship since Coyle was around. Edit-Diaz saves us!🤣

Game over We’re appalling.

Is this the most boring Rovers side, ever? I’m struggling to think of one.

Half time- the back line looks solid, but we’ve nothing going forward, as per.

True, but that was always at home. Our away form was dire, if I remember rightly.

1 chance😴 This reminds me of when Allardyce was in charge- we’re praying that we don’t go behind, because if we do, it’s game over.

Why do we stop playing? That goal’s been coming.

To those shooting me down- where is the £300 million coming from?

Whilst I agree with some of what you’re saying, I disagree about the Bury case. Who’s going to come in and pick up the near £300 million debt, if they walk?

During those early years when the protests were at their height, when the world’s media was focusing on them, they didn’t budge. We’re at a stage now were half as many people turn up at Ewood for home matches, and we’re no longer shown around the world, due to being outside the top flight… meaning that protest against them, when playing against a Championship side, is unlikely to come anywhere near what they were up against all those years ago. I’ll probably get shot down for saying this, but Venky’s are keeping the club afloat. We owe them close to £300 million. If they pull the plug, we’re done for. As upsetting as the back of this week has been, it’ll be nothing compared to us becoming another Bury. The problem for me is, like it always has been, the people who are in charge of their money, over here.

For me, it’s Waggot that this has to be aimed at. He’s the clown pulling the strings and advising the owners. He’ll be at the ground too, on Monday, when the cameras are there for Sky.

Does anyone know his salary? Would I be wrong in saying there must be a few well off business minded supporters (with the right experience), who’d do it for free?

Absolutely! The man’s an absolute disgrace.

For me, the football has been dire. Whilst I’m a season ticket holder, I’ve missed several games this season. JDT’s brand is dire to watch. The other big thing for me is knowing that the clubs that come down, are almost automatically guaranteed a return to the top flight, with the TV money they’ve received for finishing in the bottom 3. They can retain a top flight team without any financial worries. Fulham are a prime example of this, last season. You only have to look at the current top 6 Championship sides to realise this too. … and if by some minor miracle we defy the odds and go back up, how much would be needed to remain there? £200 million?

That second half proves JDT’s out of his depth and doesn’t have a clue. He’s got to go.

HT Summary I think we’ve played well, apart from in the final third. Dack’s roaming around in a free role, dictating the play. It’s a lot more pleasing to watch than the laboured dross we usually serve up. Questions need to be asked about Gally though- he’s been poor.

An incredibly boring 1-0 win. Having said that, Dack looks like what we’ve be missing.
