The January 2026 Transfer Window
RevidgeBlue replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Is he really pissed off? Edit: Or will he conveniently forget what he said about wanting signings in early and bat on regardless? I dont know of course, but my money would be on the latter. -
Valérien Ismaël: Blackburn Rovers Head Coach
RevidgeBlue replied to DE.'s topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
It's all good then. Despite results and his history at former Clubs we actually have a genius of a manager and fifteen wins out of the last 21 incoming to sneak into the play offs. Phew, thank goodness for that, for a moment there I thought we were in trouble! -

Fair point but with strikers Id rather have them generally in the right areas where they can cause the most damage. All crying over spilt milk now though, hindsight will show us whether it was a good move to let him go at that price or not. -

I didnt notice any lack of effort, I thought his movement was very good and he didn't waste his energy in the wrong areas or chasing lost causes. If I had any criticism of him here it would have been that his finishing wasn't clinical enough but I thought that would come with more game time. -

Yep, the culture of do the bare minimum to protect your own position. And yet as much as I dislike him, he's still probably an upgrade on the current fella. -
Valérien Ismaël: Blackburn Rovers Head Coach
RevidgeBlue replied to DE.'s topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
At a rough guess I'd wager the questioning went something like Bayes: Well Val you've been at the Club nearly a year now, what are your thoughts? Vi: Well yes it's been a challenge, we had a big turn over in summer so we're in transition etc etc we've had a lot of bad luck with injuries etc etc we havent had the rub of the green with officials etc etc but there are signs the squad are gelling and everything is coming together etc etc -

Course he did. Id prefer it if he won some football matches. -

You'd have thought there'd have been a summary on the official site or in the local media or something. -

With Mowbray and the Cups it was his attitude to them rather than his selections that were the problem. He made it clear in his comments around the matches he saw them as inconvenient extra fixtures which needed to be fulfilled and the team played accordingly. Edit: Without checking my recollection is that we were even worse in the League Cup than the FA Cup under him. Id hate to go back to those days where we dont bother with the Cups. It's depressing enough in the League as it is. -

That's the 64m dollar question though isn't it. Are they bothered? I can't imagine this particular lad would be much use in League 1 though. Would be kicked from pillar to post. -

Nevertheless, he was fit and available for selection by the time he was sold so if he turns out to be a huge success Im sure you'll agree selling him for £1m will represent dropping a fairly major bollock? -
150th Anniversary kit/celebrations
RevidgeBlue replied to Proudtobeblue&white's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Excellent Ian! If Im being honest I prefer the darker blue on the 1975 Centenary kit but it's still a very nice effort with some serious thought put into it back from the days when the Club didn't fuck up everything they laid their hands on. -

A few years ago I was sick of Mowbray not taking the Cups seriously and thought when JDT arrived at the Club that the powers that be had suddenly decided to take them seriously because they'd decreed we needed all the money we could get. Well, we still do, and the Cup runs under JDT were wonderful for morale which frankly we need a boost of even more at the moment after one win in ten. -

It will make no difference whatsoever to whether we stay up or go down Parson. It would be just forfeiting a game. -

I think we all know it's not happening, was never happening, and I suspect Val couldn't care less. I have lashings of humble pie sat waiting in the fridge in case I'm wrong on that.......... -

Does anyone have one of the shirts brought out to mark the 125th anniversary? I didnt get one myself but they were quite a nice effort in Cambridge blue and white halves as I recall? -
BRFC - The Nostalgia Thread
RevidgeBlue replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Agreed on Price but he wasn't in the starting X1. Remember Napier being described as "mercurial". Very good on his day but there weren't many of them at all to the best of my recollection. -

Agreed. Really poor game.

Im not a Neville fan at all but I didnt think he said anything wrong at all. He said Martinelli trying to push the injured Bradley off the pitch was an absolute disgrace, which I completely agree with and he was surprised one of the Liverpool players hadn't chinned Martinelli (or similar) which I cant disagree with at all.

Waddington and Fazackerly. That was an incredibly classy CB pairing for Division 3. The Hansen and Lawrenson of the Lower Leagues. Look how attacking that line up was as well Endean, Napier, OMara and Field. Ok they were all pretty crap apart from Field but thats not the point. Game hasn't necessarily changed for the better. -

It's a close one. Thought Hendry was a far more consistent performer week in week out. -

When did the person who "has moved" move? Im only really getting Gueye vibes out of those 3. Pickering? Forshaw?
