He literally didn't

See my previous reply. He wasn't to blame to either

If you mean yesterday's match the first goal was all down to the goalkeeper The second was an excellent cross and headed goal - sometime you have to give credit

Hill had a good game yesterday and is a big loss IMO. The Crewe lad had better be good if he's the Hill replacement Our best signing for the window would be the Rotherham goalkeeper

View from our day out in the posh seats: Broughton, Waggott and what looked like a deputation from India were only a few yards from our group. Oh to have been a fly on the wall to that conversation after the match Also, Gordon Taylor was there, sitting on his own. Is he a regular at Ewood? The Premier Suite was good and the staff excellent but like the rest of the ground it's looking a bit tired and in need of a revamp. The toilets need ripping out next week As for the game, Broughton has so much to answer for. Rotherham had a proper keeper in goal - great saves, catches crosses and bosses his 6-yard box. Then we have that clown in goal for us. Rovers could have been 3-0 ahead after 25 minutes but will be thankful for the draw after a poor second half. Unless some of the injured players come back soon or we make some decent signings this month we will be in a relegation scrap: I've no doubt about that.

For the first and most likely only time we’ll be in the posh seats for this one so let’s hope Rovers don’t take the taste away from all those lovely prawn sandwiches. This dreadful losing streak has to end or I really think Tomasson will be considering his position Rovers 2 Millers 1

Six defeats in the past 7 matches. It's no fun at all unless playing "attractive football" while losing floats your boat

Possibly one or two but certainly far fewer than those who praised us after taking the three points. I’d say the praise is condescending more than anything and contrary to what Rosenior said of course they’d love to play us every week. We’re easy to beat

Not sure about that. As stated previously our defenders are of a good Championship standard yet the defending at times has been calamitous. The selections and tactics often haven’t made sense. We should not have lost so many games and Tomasson seems incapable of ekeing out battling draws - yesterday being a prime example

Alternatively, we're in freefall and Tomasson doesn't know how to stop the slide. That's his job - and at the moment he's been found wanting

Forgetting the current clown in goal, we have a decent set of Championship defenders and a couple of defensive midfielders to protect them Yet we keep making basic defensive errors and shipping goals at a prodigious rate. That's not down to the owners or the management, that's down to the man in the dugout

Tomasson's is being exposed as a coach who gets his team playing attractive football (sometimes) but is weak defensively, prone to mistakes, and buckle under the slightest pressure The club's deeper problems aside, there's too many folk making excuses for him

A good managing director would haul him in the office and demand an explanation. Injuries etc etc are a legitimate excuse but what’s going on is not good enough

Ferrets scrambling to engage backwards gear here. Let’s see how the second half goes

A bad workman blames his tools

Even after an appalling set of results its amazing how Tomasson continues to get a free pass. Some clubs would have sacked him by now

Maybe Tomasson wasn’t a managerial messiah after all. We’re in free fall and he doesn’t appear to know what to do

Markanday and Telekovic in the starting XI, they wouldn’t have made the reserves not that many years ago. That looks like a relegation team to me

There was nothing more dull than Guardiola's Barcelona. many times I'd be watching them in the Champions League and switch over to something more interesting, such as a repeat of Emmerdale or Antiques Roadshow I'd say we're in the business of winning. Entertainment is on the TV

Would you go back to 2 wingers who can beat a man and bang in a cross over the boring pass-pass modern game? I would.

Foremost, football is about winning. How Rovers achieve a winning formula I don't really care. I'd take a boring 1-0 win any day. At the moment our "attractive" football and the manager behind it is losing.

Last season has gone - a golden opportunity missed and irrelevant now. The facts are we are in free fall with a dreadful run of results that has left us looking nervously down the league rather than up.

Managers stand or die on results. “Attractive” football can lose them their jobs

1966 a great year for obvious football reasons but an awful year to be a Rovers fan. Took us a quarter of a century to get back. If we do go down to the third division again we won't return so easily next time

Any nerves out there?
