We haven't got the ball in their half yet

Gallagher's touch for that Dack through ball was pathetic. The lad's got concrete in his boots instead of feet. Hedges should have scored as well. We should be 2-1 up but the quality is just not there

Awful. 45 minutes of my life wasted watching a team that couldn't score in a brothel

Jesus, Hedges

We look a poor outfit overall. A lack of quality is evident all the time

Vale plays at half pace. He really needs to get up to speed physically and mentally at this level

Shot could have gone anywhere but he placed it perfectly in the corner Good goal

It was a brilliant strike

Might as well switch off now. We've never come back from a losing position this season

Well, that's a good start

For all you know, they're not.

Different times but they rang my dad at work when his kids were born and he went to the hospital after work to see them. He had a responsible job while Ben kicks a ball about for a living. Missing today's game..... really?

Some excellent comments in the Times yesterday by West Ham co-owner David Sullivan about how he hates the transfer window, the pressure from fans to sign players, any players, and how it gets worse as the window is about to close and how they often sign players they don't really want, or they know aren't good enough, just to appease supporters and "get someone (anyone) through door" Exactly the same as Rovers and, probably, most other clubs Football needs a better transfer system

The fans will decide Potter's fate. If the booing and abuse increase he will be potted. Same with Lampard Potter was a poor appointment and he should have stayed at Brighton, a perfect club for him.

It is very odd, and the fact Dundee's is the same as Ewood but other Leitch grounds are normal rectangular shape would indicate some local factors are at work rather than Leitch himself designing them that way

Thanks. Interesting photos. Leitch designed many stadiums in England and Scotland and presumably many of them were next to roads. So why did he design the Ewood and Dens Park stands in this way and why did the Rovers and Dundee directors allow him to do it? It's weird, and doesn't make much sense.

Thanks for this However it begs the obvious question as to why the Nuttall Street stand was built parallel to Nuttall Street and not parallel to the pitch?

Lovely photo, spent many years standing on the terracing "bend" at the Blackburn end of the Nuttall Street stand Does anyone know why the stand was constructed like that?

Wigan are a bit of a bogey side, they always seem to pull their tripe out against us and we’ve been poor in local derbies so I don’t think that will be easy.

You have to win these sort of games if you’ve got any pretensions of making the playoffs. Anything other than victory will be a disappointment Rotherham 1 Rovers 2

The Super League hasn't gone away and will come back within 3 years in a different format https://www.ft.com/content/28a6bb35-ac53-4365-abf2-7d6e1a57d3e9 It's a continuing process. Football sold its soul to the money men and corrupt regimes a long time ago.

I saw us get thumped 4-0 at St Andrew's in the Cup in 2004. David Dunn was playing for them. Brum also beat us in the cup 3 years ago. Assuming they beat Forest Green we owe them

The carabao cup has a Wembley final. We won it 20 years ago. It’s a chance of glory and a day to remember for fans. Like all competitions it deserves respect, not a place to try out kids. Tomasson was wrong to treat the Forest game so lightly It’s Nottingham Forest by the way. Notts Forest doesn’t exist

Potter was a poor appointment. I suppose when the likes of Chelsea offer you a job you have to take it but he really should have turned it down. A club like Brighton was perfect for him.
