The Ryan Nyambe Appreciation Thread
rigger replied to blueboy3333's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Nyambe is good enough for our level, If he was any better he wouldn't be at the Rovers. -

Is it an African swallow? -
Darwen End Closure / New Singing Section
rigger replied to pk1875's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
personally I am not that bothered about moving from the Darwen end. The attraction for me was the unrestricted seating where you could be near who you chose to be near. -
Why do we concede so many last minute goals?
rigger replied to Alex Rover's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
In my opinion one of the reasons we drop so deep is due to a lack of leaders telling their teammates where to defend. I was lucky when I played ( all be it at a low level) our keeper used to bellow at us all the time telling us to push up when defending. if you commit a foul its easier to defend a 40 yard free-kick than a 20 yarder. -

I would add that it is enjoyable to watch the Rovers again. -

An accurate long ball is often more effective than a multitude of short passes. Especially if your team has technically less gifted players. -

With our present forwards, I don't think crosses are our main attacking plan. -

His recovery, after a mistake is fantastic. But it would be better if he didn't make the mistakes in the first place. His performances have not been anywhere near the top of my worry list. I think he will be a great asset given a couple of seasons more experience, which I would certainly give him. -
An Assessment of Player performance v Bristol City

Nothing so was claimed, but don't let the truth get in the way of a good story -
An Assessment of Player performance v Bristol City
rigger replied to tonyoz's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
No as I stated earlier, Both sets of fans where chanting to the ref, "You don't know what you're doing". I would take that as a telling sign that the ref was having a stinker. -

An Assessment of Player performance v Bristol City
rigger replied to tonyoz's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I was talking about the entire game , not just that one incident. But on his decisions almost 20,000 thought he was wrong. 1 thought he was right. (Admittedly the most influential 1) -
Why do you make a big thing of Nyambe needing help.All defenders need help when two on one. I would challenge any defender at any level to cope with two attackers on there own. If that was any managers tactic they would soon show up as being unsuccessful. You state that helping another player weakens the team in other areas. On the contrary I would say that if you win the ball back the team is in a better position to win a game.

Against Bristol especially in the first half, Evans seemed to be helping Bell when Bell was outnumbered, whereas Smallwood gave no help to Nyambe

Except both sets of fans chanting, "You don't know what your doing". -
And isn't that turning out to be a fine system.

An Assessment of Player performance v Bristol City
rigger replied to tonyoz's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I think he was pulled to try and introduce more attack from midfield. Most of Bristols threat in the second half came down our left side or from Rovers errors. -

Why didn't you quote my full post, as I stated there, from my position about thirty yards from the incident, the Bristol player slipped whilst trying and failing to control the ball. The linesman on our left side had a good view of the situation, but judging by the rest of his decisions he must have been briefed to only indicate off-sides and throw-ins. In my opinion the ref got it wrong. -

To tell you the truth, for their free-kick, I thought the Bristol player tried to control the ball and just slipped. It wasn't a foul by Nyambe. My biggest criticism of Nyambe is that he sees himself being doubled up on, but doesn't seem to demand any help. -

On Sunday it was our right back area. Not necessarily the player but that area was targeted for two on one situations, especially in the first half -

Wasn't this also the one where we had the ball, two rovers players tackled each other and gave the ball to Bristol. -
But the game was on Sunday
