Elliott very poor so far

The India v. India one day series will also be held in Pune at the back end of March after the test and T20 games, so don’t expect our owners to be too bothered about BRFC with all this cricket on.

Great result for Rotherham, terrible for us.

That makes sense and I agree but you haven’t addressed the barmcake issue
You need to ask a Bolton baker about that, E. Lancs bakers didn’t make barmcakes.

My dad was a baker in Darwen, then Great Harwood where I lived in the baker’s shop. A teacake in the Blackburn area doesn’t have currants in it, that’s a currant teacake. Basically made from white bread dough but cooked off the bottom of the oven on a rack to distinguish them from oven bottoms which are. Teacakes are for putting bacon on, currant teacake are for toasting with butter on. Both drunk with a cup of tea, hence teacake. Ashton’s bakery on Heys Lane still sell proper teacakes, not a currant in sight.

Hmm read on twitter that may be a fallout between lenihan and management 🤷🏻♂️
Rib injury

TM has lost the dressing room judging by the temper tantrums shown by players getting subbed, and the lack of effort on the part of some of them.

Did Holtby not have Covid? Maybe he's not physically 100% yet?
That’s a very good point, his drop in form could be a key reason why we’ve been struggling.

Because I don’t like seeing my fellow fans taken the piss out of.
Thank you for your concern, but I don’t feel like I’ve had the piss taken out of me, just a slight inconvenience with a refund at a later date due to the decision of someone at the EFL.

It’s no surprise any more. Of course the club will blame the EFL but there is no reason for Waggott not to take the £10 out of the money received from each ST pass holder and pay iFollow directly. Just another way to add money to the coffers.
I didn’t buy a season pass purely and simply because I don’t trust any “offer” that Waggott makes. It’s always about getting something later.
The worst thing about all this is that if the club was working with fans - existing and potential - then we would be making more money than by simply fleecing the hardcore - which is exactly what this is.
If you didn’t buy a season pass, why are you so bothered about it?

Much as I like Arma, it was clear today that Pukki is on a different level. He was a menace throughout, not giving our defence a minute’s peace. His work rate is phenomenal, showing he’s not just a goal scorer. Top player.

Maradona, a true football genius, who combined his fantastic talent with an unbelievable will to win. What he did for Argentina, Messi can only dream about. It makes me laugh when people talk about him cheating with his hand of god goal as if it’s the only time cheating ever happened in the game. There are zillions of instances like it in football history.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Lenihan is missing at Luton, a few of the Republic squad have tested positive for Covid, four at the latest count.

Great moment today when I got a pop up saying Biden had won the election at the exact time Arma scored!

Douglas, Bell and Johnson self isolating..
Dack has a ACL. Bennett just had surgery.
That's 5
Add Travis with knee ligament surgery, so that’s now 6.

Hells bells, some folk need to get a grip. The defence have put their bodies on the line tonight and ground out a point against a full strength ‘Boro on a 7 match unbeaten run. Blaming TM for our injuries and illness is pathetic.

We lacked any pace whatsoever in defence and midfield last night. If we are to play a high line, at least two defenders need to be rapid.

We’d have been better with Apples in the nets than Pears by the look of the latter tonight.

For all the rubbish about Reading being in a false position at the top, they are killing us in midfield and at the back.

To be honest, it’s very good to see a player who was bereft of confidence start to show what a good player he is. It’s also credit to Mowbray for sticking with him when the player was becoming something of a laughing stock. I for one hope that he continues to progress and prove all the doubters wrong, because in these days of instant gratification when there is little room for patience and a long term view of life, it’s great to see that this is the most productive approach to most things.

We’ve played well, but mistakes at back and up front kill you in pro football.

Ayala reverts to type, injured half the time.

I bought a season ticket in the knowledge that I would be getting a minimum of 23 home games and 7 away on iFollow, with the difference between my season ticket price minus £230 (23 games x £10) knocked off the price of next season’s ticket. I also guarantee to have my seat for next season. It will be an unlikely bonus if I get to see any live games at Ewood. Sorry, I don’t feel ripped off or cheated by the Rovers, as I knew full well what I was getting for my money.

It’s not a coincidence that 5 of the clubs in the top 6 are managed by Continental managers who are light years ahead of their British counterparts in terms of coaching and tactics. The same is true of PL clubs. If we are to change manger, we must look abroad for a bright, young manager with new ideas and football philosophy.
