Tom

He pulled up before half time Hamstring tweak out for a couple weeks most likely

Bell had a great second half, got a bit of stick in the first half for putting a ball out for a corner but that was 100% the keepers fault he couldn’t see behind him. He was as good as anyone seeing the game out and using the ball well

Superb stuff at villa park Screw sacrificing the cups, we’ll always remember Cardiff, let fans have their moments and respect cup competitions more

Superb result; first half all about craft followed by graft in the second

Third player booked for fouling Travis

I agree with bringing Bennett on this early with the game poised, helps Bell a lot more

Big ugly centre forward doing what he’s there to do

Rothwell could have gone down but kept at it and played the less obvious more difficult ball, brilliant from him

‪Yes what a goal that is superb from Rothwell then some finish from Arma ‬

Walking down, the rain has gone for now, there’s a buzz in the air (well not really I’m walking down Bentham Road alone) and we are going to get a result 3-0 Rovers I’m going for, DJ Sammy with his first goal at Ewood since the titanic sunk, Boris Johnson to celebrate Brexit with a goal and Frankie Costello to wrap it up

I’ve had a season ticket as long as I can remember but for a few reasons miss a few games here and there at home, got to be honest would have been tempted by the red button tonight! I don’t feel any sense of duty in supporting the club, some games I simply prioritise real life over going, always feels odd that some would use that as a stick to beat others with.

Imagine if you go on redcafe or whatever United forum they will be be critical of that too. However we are Rovers fans, a team in need of some improvements so of course we are going to discuss the lack of movement on that front

Hoping that Wigan go down, up against it but if they land Rhodes on loan you never know

Bennett always comes across as a class act to me, sure he’s had a nibble back a couple of times when people have tweeted directly at him but he’s within his rights to do so. I wouldn’t have his as captain on the pitch but as club captain he’s perfect off it for me.

Yep he met with the Roverstrust on Thursday so can’t have been too far away

Always thought Gallagher was a Rangers fan, assume he had one English and one Scottish team

He’s really got under the skin of Sheff Wednesday fans and journos

Me too! Which is why I asked Bangali Fode Koita and he said Vale is the pick of the bunch

But you said you hadn’t seen anything of Mols? Seems a fair opinion to hold if someone has watched both

Interesting that Mulgrew isn’t going; thought he was ‘back on the grass’ and not far from fitness.

He was named his ‘source’ in Ewood, just so happens I know and respect that person and knew 10000% it was not only false but potentially harmful, I called the chap in question who obviously confirmed. Confronted clown pants who backtracked and deleted the tweets then blocked me. Absolute whopper

Surely nobody was ever taken in by that clown?

The fact that we go 5-6 wins on the bounce followed by 5-6 without a win quite often allows the extremes in opinion, we just get a bit of hope then slip away then quietly climb again. If we were win one / lose one things may be a little calmer, we’re about where we should be, not quite troubling the top 6 due to lack of consistency but not far off

So does anyone have much insight on: Schmidt? Jones? I am generally a little ignorant about football outside of our league so would love to hear from someone who has seen them

Exactly right, the vague conspiracy posts are bang on and we will allow no positivity here! Not sure about this keeper, we definitely need one but his credentials don’t instantly shine but I can’t profess to know much of him
