The Summer Transfer Window (Press Submit)
davulsukur replied to RoversClitheroe's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
That's horrific news. Probably means a contract extension for Fadz. As the owners won't pit their hands in their pockets for a decent replacement. -

I didn't amend it. It was definitely a direct quote (twice in fact) -

Should be spending £10m but we won't get anywhere near that level of expenditure. If you think we are spending that much, you really need to revaluate your expectations. -
Perhaps, but it doesn't bode too well that when we desperately need a goal to try and rescue something against Sheff Wed, Markanday, Moran, Chrisene, Buckley & Ayari were all subbed on ahead of him. The only striker on the bench and he didn't get 10mins.

Well it's 1-1 now

Either Eustace doesn't rate him, or he just isn't good enough. He's played less than 20mins since Eustace took over. He's not been subbed on or hasn't even made the squad for 10 of the 14 league games since JE took over. He makes the bench, probably due to the lack of numbers available in the squad. Honestly, I just think the answer is, he isn't good enough, unfortunately.

v Coventry City (h) - 27/4/24
davulsukur replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Not sure about other teams but we've won a paltry 6 home games this season: V WBA (2-1) V Boro (2-1) V Cardiff (1-0) V Brum (4-2) V Bristol (2-1) V Stoke (3-1) 10 Losses to Hull, Sunderland, Leicester, Swansea, PNE, Leeds, Watford, QPR, ipswich and Sheff Wed. 6 Draws against: Rotherham, Hudds, Norwich, Millwall, Plymouth and Southampton. It's all a bit horrific tbh. Edit: looks like we have the 2nd worst home record in the championship (joint with, QPR and Watford (24 points)), Rotherham with the worst (20 points) Leeds, Leicester and Ipswich (no surprise) have more home points than we have points (53, 52, 51) Southampton, Norwich and West Brom aren't far off either (48, 48 & 46) -
The Aynsley Pears appreciation thread.

It had better be a Rovers career ender. He's an awful goalkeeper and that error is insanely bad. Like you say, had time to kick it but actually avoided touching the ball purposely, instead. The problem is that the next guy in line is just as bad. Don't think it really matter which ones starts but honestly, I'd consider Leo for the last 2. -

Might just be the angle of that video but I still can't wrap my head around how he's caught up to the ball and attempted to do nothing to stop it going into the net. I know he can't pick it up but he does nothing. -
We are going down (the pessimism thread)

Yeah I can't work that last bit out either. Didn't even attempt to make a last ditch effort to save it. -

Hyam definitely culpable in the first. Not really his fault for the 3rd though. -

davulsukur replied to simongarnerisgod's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
You really need to watch Sheff Weds 3rd goal from yesterday, just to reaffirm why Pears should never play for the club again. And to think, people on here were actually suggesting him replacing TK as our No.1 was fine. He's absolute garbage. -

davulsukur replied to simongarnerisgod's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I can't imagine there will be too many who want to put things right tbh. I doubt many of them give a crap. Fair enough, I could see Wharton, JRC and Pickering falling into that category if I had to choose. Still, I'd expect a good number will want out (assuming someone will take them) it'll be a huge turnover of players and I can't imagine Venkys putting much up for an overhaul. I don't see us coming back at the first attempt. -

davulsukur replied to simongarnerisgod's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
The ironic thing is, I'd expect a good number of our players to request moves back to the championship when we are relegated, as they'll say they are championship level players. Couldn't imagine any of: Hyam, Hedges, Sigurdsson, Tronstad, Wharton, Szmodics, Travis, JRC, Dolan, Gallagher, Carter, Brittain or Pickering wanting to stick it out in league 1. That's 13 players who would want out and I can't imagine the club would stand in their way as it shifts pretty much everyone on a reasonable wedge out of the club. Leonard, Garrett, O'Riordan, Gent, Gilsenan, Buckley, Markanday, Telalovic, Vale and Batty are what we'd be left with 😬 -

Wow. That's really quite poor. A one man attack. -

davulsukur replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Agreed on Ayari, think he looks a good player. Markanday isn't good enough, has the odd cameo off the bench or plays well in a cup game here and there but he's not good enough. Probably doesn't help that he plays out of position tbf. -

-----------Like choosing which leg you want cutting off Brittain----Carter----Hyam----Pickering ----------------JRC----Tronstad Dolan-----------Szmodics-------Chrisene ---------------------Gallagher Difficult to choose these days as the squad just let you down week after week. Szmodics aside, we must have one of the poorest attacking group of players in the league. Fuck knows I think we'll succumb to a tight defeat, probably 0-1 and then get absolutely rinsed by Leicester on the final day to send us down. -
John Eustace - our head coach
davulsukur replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Of course we know Szmodics will go in the summer. He's at his peak, he'll never be worth more money than his value is right now. That's the model the club has stated, repeatedly that they are taking. We buy players and sell them on when the valuation suits the club. Venkys will not invest to the levels required, season on season has been a cost cutting exercise for the last few years. -
John Eustace - our head coach
davulsukur replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Top 10? What on earth brings you to that conclusion? A manager with just 2 wins in 15 games, a really poor squad with horrifically weak mentality, selling our only goalscorer and no investment in the summer and you think we will get better???
