v Bristol City (a) - 10/04/2024
grinder replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Supposing just supposing we do stay up - then what? A new dawn with rejuvenated players manager and owners or more of the same following another fire sale to keep the lights on and the import of more 3rd rate loanees - death by a thousand cuts - I'd take relegation now if it meant Venkys and their cronies would fook off -

We should be throwing caution to the wind a go down fighting but instead is tip tap tip tap give the ball away bollocks - dreadful -

All I can hear on Sky is a child crying - at least I think it's a child 🙄 -
v Plymouth Argyle (h) - 09/03/2024
grinder replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Earlier in this thread the 5-2 against Plymouth in 75 was mentioned - reckon that team would have hammered this load of 3rd rate shirkers off the park - how many of our current squad would get into that team - Sammie and that's about it for me.... -
v Millwall (h) - 5/3/24
grinder replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
How many of this lot actually care and are playing for the shirt? Sammie and Scott probably but on tonight's evidence that's about it - a bunch of third rate half arsed non tryers.... -

Was prepared to give JE some leeway but this has relegation written all over it - players aren't good enough neither is the manager but we know where the blame ultimately lies... -

But he has nothing to aim at - it's not as if pickering is bombing on - maybe swap them... -

bbc have got formation wrong Gallagher in goal and Wahlstedt as a false 9 surely - couldn't be any worse 🙈 -
Jon Dahl Tomasson - Officially No Longer Our Head Coach
grinder replied to Tom's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Can't but help wonder how much the distractions of his negotiations with Sweden which were clearly going on during the slump contributed to it either consciously or unconsciously - he was clearly disillusioned with the hierarchy but it was almost as if he had lost interest /motivation to change anything on the pitch. -
Back to the bbc team - thought it was good to hear Shearer mention Tony Parkes in the build up...yes he is going to favour Newcastle but clearly still has fond memories Lineker I thought was his usual anti rovers his comments after the 1st half were way off - Murphy we know about maybe not as bad as he can be but anyone listening would think he used to be a decent footballer...

https://www.wolves.co.uk/news/club/20240222-paul-bradshaw-a-tribute/ nice tribute with a clear implication he was sold too cheaply - we have a long history of that....

Really good keeper - remember a save at the Blackburn end when he half stopped it ball flew over his head and he spun round and clawed it off the line - seems like yesterday....

grinder replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Umm most of the players I was referring to by implication were landed early in the window or in previous - of course Waggott is more responsible but don't think he was recruiting... If we are going vto apportion blame the buck stops with the owners and always has... -

grinder replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
The worrying thing is - looking at the crap GB has landed us with - how on earth do you rearrange these deck chairs to stop the barge sinking - Gallagher to CB and Hyam up front or Telalovic to swap with team bus driver? The result will be the same.... -

Could play another 3 weeks and not score - zero creativity... -
Jon Dahl Tomasson - Officially No Longer Our Head Coach
grinder replied to Tom's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Clearly a clumsy Iand conceived attempt at a diversionary tactic - we shouldn't fall for it - we all know what the issues are... -
Honestly and I hate to say this but I would take relegation administration points deductions - absolutely anything if it meant getting rid of venkys and their odious hierarchy... This is pretty unbearably depressing - I'd take the dark days of the 79s over this any time...

Jon Dahl Tomasson - Officially No Longer Our Head Coach
grinder replied to Tom's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I do think that we could and should have made the play offs - there were about 3 occasions in the run in where his late game subs wrecked the formation - one in particular when he took sammie off when he was running around like a spring chicken... And his insistence on tippy tappy out of defense when just occasionally row Z is needed - but the potential is there if he was at a less dysfunctional club.... -

If has any sense he will quit now before his reputation is damaged beyond repair the alternative is taking us to league 1 if not this season then next.... What a mess..... -

Let's hope we don't try to loan him out after 6m like the last 4yr deal.... 🙈 -

Trying not to knee jerk here but nearly fell off my chair when I caught up with events today. Has the feel of a low rent 21st century Fred Pickering moment - we all know what happened after - of course Travis is a very limited player but given our vulnerability why we didn't try 2 proper holding defensive midfielders with Wharton further forward either suggests JDT is pedantic or not as good as some think.... -
v Rotherham Utd (h) - 1/1/24
grinder replied to wilsdenrover's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Souey once said you have to wee with the willy you've got JDT is trying to wee with someone else's - he needs to take a look at making the best of what he's got and if that means a style change so be it cis this style will take us down if it goes on....
