47er

Especially true when you lose on a Friday night. Whole weekend ruined. Partially anyway!

He certainly pretended to be fit. He wasn't going to mis that game. Didn't last 30 seconds after deliberate foul by Flowers 3 seconds after kick-off. Did put a transfer request in day before. A shitty day all round really.

Supposing crowds are allowed back in, how many season tickets will we sell? We are not free of relegation yet either remember. I'm getting increasingly disinterested in all things Rovers, more than 70 years after I saw my first game. Venkys are wiping away my history.

The thing is we are not going to spend summer looking forward to the next are we? We are dying slowly.

and the team which falls apart at the end of the season anyway. Beyond belief that Mowbray is the man trusted to build it up again. Another long journey on the way......

But Mowbray has made him like this. In reality he is not that bad. Never worth the money, never the striker we were looking for ---but not as bad as he now is.

What's that mean?

That's longer than Mowbray's tenure!! 😮

Ha Sorry! Never signed up with Facebook!

Go on then....!

Its like a religious cult. Just fit the facts to suit the beliefs.

Bloody joke isn't it? One result after a run like that. I despair.

Yet who are 4 places above us in the table.....

It would help if the pool of young cricketers was larger. When do you see young lads playing cricket in the streets unless they're Asian? I always thought young Asians would come through to play for England one day but it doesn't seem to be happening on any scale. How many non-fee paying schools have cricket pitches these days!

That young lad from Crewe must be wondering what on earth he's done! Signed up for Div 1 potentially.

Chris Rea 70 today. "On the Beach"-----great album.

I am though!

Looks like they'll get a reasonable 1st innings lead though. They seem to be finding batting easier and easier at this point.

It should be a top 6 squad wth the time and money he's had but he's made a horrible mess of it. Well done for accepting he has to go though.

Which other teams have 1 point from the last 21?

Can't see any role for Bairstow in Test Cricket. The only place for him is as keeper and batting at 6 and England have obviously decided we have a better keeper than him On these pitches facing spinners he's out of his depth as a batsman, its sad to watch him.

And despite spending £12M we still don't have a centre-forward.

You're right about that, thanks to Mowbray's priorities But I can't get impressed that he "scored a cracking header against Blackpool in the pre-season". Team is trying out for a structure as opposed to players just being chucked in in the wrong positions and Armstrong badly needs a tall partner upfront to knock it down to him. But I seriously doubt we have anybody. Certainly give Brereton the chance, we have nothing to lose right now. its nightmare up there, no wonder we can't score.

Brereton might be the best option we have up there but that's another indictment of Mowbray. Brereton doesn't have the abilities of a traditional centre-forward eg heading. However, anything is worth a try at the moment because the current line-up is impotent.

At uni aren't they?
