Derby County (A) - Sunday 8th March [3pm KO]
jim mk2 replied to a topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Watching this with a Derby fan. She says they've been poor for months, can't believe they're winning this and how poor we are -

It's just like the election. Gullible people taken for a ride by rich people. The club should be honest and say it doesn't want promotion. -

Mowbray had a long chat with his pensions adviser last night. Promotion puts his pot at risk but another 2 seasons in the championship should be enough -

Still here; one good game in 10 is about his lot. -

Derby had a tough match in the FA Cup only a few days ago yet they seem less tired and more motivated than us. Why ????? -

Entirely predictable - why do we bother getting our hopes up? Still, we're making progress according to the manager's fan club -
The difficulty here is he spent £12m on 2 strikers who haven't been automatic picks and have scored only a few goals between them. That;s very BIG money for us and clearly money not well spent. So the caveat is Mowbray has done reasonably well so far despite wasting cash on 2 non-performing players If that money had been spent wisely who knows where we would be now?. Let's cool it on the Mowbray love-in please. .

You always come across as very angry. Do you have problems in your life?

Yep, stick with what we've got next season and we'll end up in the same place, assuming the division isn't stronger. It's pretty weak this season which explains why we're challenging for the top 6 despite being a mediocre side.
-
What does "we are all set with attackers" mean ? He thinks our forwards are the best we can do and we don't need any more or any that are better? For a start, with Graham no longer first pick and ,Gallagher and Brereton's goal scoring record pitiful, we don't have a striker or natural No 9 who can put the ball in the net.

Championship season 2019-20

Boro done well to turn it round against Forest tonight. Forest still in the playoff mix though so it doesn't affect us unless we get into the top 6. -

After taking 3 points out of the last 9 we need to take 20 points out of the next 30 to get in the mix of the top 6. Not impossible but highly unlikely. Strangely, I feel more upbeat about Derby away than the last 2 home games. Tom Lawrence will inevitably score against us but I'd go with the team that played at Charlton and Brentford with Williams in if he is fit for Lenihan and possibly Gallagher in for Samuel. -
Players running at high speed will come into contact with each other. If anything the Swansea player looked like he was trying to turn away to minimise contact. There was nothing in that collision that looked like he was trying to hurt Walton. The referee had a good game and got it exactly right.
-
Yep, me too. The Swansea lad and Walton collided - they couldn't avoid each other
-
Down to the manager and coaches to find his best position and leave him there. The lad can play
-
....... that managers don't know how to get the best out of him ? He can't be a "very good player" and not secure a regular place. Personally, I'd have loved him at Ewood. Had a few ropey games but more often than not was excellent for us.
-
Yep, but we've taken 3 points out of 9, so we're arguably in poor form too
-
Preston are in a top 6 place - how they are playing is irrelevant
-
PNE are "in the mix" for the playoffs because they are in the top 6. To be in the mix, you have to be included. and we won't be "in the mix" until we get in the top 6. At the moment we are challenging for the top 6. Nothing more. It's quite simple really.

Premier league to launch hall of fame
jim mk2 replied to Bigdoggsteel's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Everyone forgetting Thierry Henry.....one of finest players to grace the game -
Nope, in the mix means "included", so to be in the mix in this context means being in the top 6. We're not.
-
You have to be in the top 6 to be "in the mix". We've haven't been top 6 for nearly 10 years.
-
I'd love an explanation for that one from the manager and players. Armstrong converted well last week so there was no reason for him not to take it again. Unlike you I'm a DG fan but if he called seniority over it then he was out of order. Cost us 2 points and we could be having a big celebration now after a next to last minute winner.
-
Thanks for giving me a good laugh on a bad day?

I think we're top of the table on that stat
