Stoke, who had just 25% possession up till this point, just scored a really good goal on the counter. Winning the ball back in the midfield, 2 passes later and it's in the back of the QPR net. A good through ball and good run, all of QPR's possession undone.

@DE. Summed it up very well.

Before a ball was kicked this season, you would have really struggled to put an argument forward for sticking with Mowbray. Seeing the bigger picture was exactly the reason for replacing him and there was absolutely no way you, or any other of the "real fans" (as you like to call them) could have predicted this season going like this. Any support of Mowbray up to the start of the season has just been done on blind faith. And just to be clear, any fans who were calling for him to be replaced only want the best for Blackburn Rovers football club and have ambitions greater than a mid-lower championship finish.

Absolutely class result. Fair play, I've been as much as a Mowbray out as anyone but sitting 4th in the league, we really can't grumble right now. Let's hope January doesn't totally derail our season.

Dolan on for Khadra. Come on Dolan lad, bag us another!

I want them both down

Meh, somehow they both need to lose

It's ended in a draw, Bournemouth went ahead, so it's not the end of the world. Beat Preston and then Bournemouth, we'll be 4 points behind them. Certainly a good test for us, to see if we have actually grown a pair or just the standard daring to dream before it all comes crashing down around us.

JRC out for another month according to the Lancs Live.

It would be about damned time that we beat these lot in our own backyard. 3-0 Rovers! Let's do it!

Didn't expect us to win that today, up to 4th as well which is amazing! Gotta keep this going!

What? Nnnnnoooooooo, worst news imaginable

This is one of the main reasons I joined. Our fanbase seems to be fragmented, it would be great if we all rallied to one cause (even as a silent member for the most part) because I believe sooner or later, the fans, in numbers are going to be needed.

It would be 11 years too late but yeah they definitely should be. But then again the whole game probably needs complete overhaul. It seems Reading, like Rovers, were used as a way to make a lot of people rich with the best interests of the club no wherw near the top of the priory list. The fans of course, as always are at the bottom of that list.

Oh, it's more than that, he's signed a 4 year contract. The bloke has been a terrible manager, bombing at Leeds and Hibs. Even his caretaker role earlier in the year with Sheff Utd he oversaw 8 losses in 11 games. They'll be lucky to stay up.

Modern day foreign ownership in a nutshell. Why the hell would they do this?

Another good driving run from Rothwell, resulting him being blatantly cleaned out. Rothy gets us frothy

We're talking about a guy who not too long ago, literally tripped over the ball/blade of grass in the box with only the keeper to beat. And now, 16 goals before the end of November. Insane.

Needed that! BBD again, mental can't believe the season he's having.

Not sure why Brereton felt the need to kick the ball away and get carded.

There's taking your foot off the gas and then there's taking your foot off the gas after a Mowbray half time team talk.

If only it was PNE!!

3-0 Nice! 👌

Aye possibly. He is our captain though, which is why it would be a surprise to see him dropped in the next few weeks.

I really don't want to see a back 3. I think, as someone mentioned in another thread, the surprises in the team selection going forward will end up being Lenihan phased out in favour of Wharton. A back 3 keeps Ayala and Lenihan in the team (for now) but gets some much needed minutes into Wharton. Just my thoughts anyway.
