v Ipswich Town (a) - 17/1/26

Leave if out Rev. This team is going down and feelings are raw.. Tronstad is the Gerson class compared to the rest of our midfield. He's a solid Championship footballer, surrounded by 8 or 9 who aren't. You had it in for Danny Graham too, and who wouldn't want a similar player now? -

Sanmie hasn't scoted many for them but of course he notches today. More salt in the wounds -

Seriously, we do not want to go down, because we won't come back for a long, long time And there's no saying the owners will leave either. Why should they? -

Birmingham fans must be having a quiet chuckle at someone, anyone, but especially us, taking Cashin off their hands -

Our group were thinking of going to this but decided to creosote the fence instead Good move -
The January 2026 Transfer Window

Or he flops and leaves after a year on a free and we have to pay up the remainder of his contract? -

So why would anyone watch social media interviews / podcasts knowing you're being fed news / analysis by the clubs that is not going to be in any way critical? I would have thought local newspaper journalists have nothing to lose (especially if they're already banned) and might even tempt some readers back by providing an alternative voice to the social media slop. -

£3.5 million as touted for Jørgensen seems an awful lot for a 25-year-old lad who's been scuffling around minor Scandinavian leagues in recent years. And why a 3 year plus contract when he's never been anywhere more than 2 seasons? -

He'll be right at home on Whalley Range -

Leonard in League One is at the right level now. The lad needed 10 chances to score one goal and I won't forget the League Cup match at Chelsea early in the second half when we were up about to celebrate a certain goal and he somehow managed to shoot wide. That's not say he was worse than Gueye - he wasn't - and I'm sure he would have had game time this season with all the injuries and loss of form but there's alot of rose tinted spectacles about him as a player. He wasn't really very good. -

Did we really have class acts like Szmodics and Wharton playing for Rovers? Seems light years now from the current dross in blue and white -
BRFC - The Nostalgia Thread
jim mk2 replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
It looks a bit odd to me, as if the players have been superimposed on the background, typical of AI, and I don't think it was 1966 as I'm sure the V-neck shirts had long been replaced by round neck shirts by then. Liked Mike Harrison. Saw him leaving the bookshop at Sudell Cross and getting into his VW Beetle circa 1967. Natty dresser and trendy car at the time. -

Thunder thighs Mike Harrison and Duggie, early 1960s From another site and possibly AI generated but a good image nonetheless Note the spectators wearing ties -
Probably an even sadder post than the OP. This chap bleeds blue and white, like we all do, but he's battled hard over many years to break the Venky's regime, at great personal and emotional cost according to his postings - and now even he's given up. There is cause for optimism here - however slim it might be. It's often said that it is darkest before the dawn and these grimmest of grim times might be the nadir. Something, somewhere, maybe soon, will cause Venky's to sell up and leave. We have to cling to that hope.
