Spain very skilful this is going to be tough

A win, a draw and a loss The die is cast for the season all right. 11th place here we come and Steve and his sidekick in their jobs for another £300,000 a year

It's almost as if it were deliberate. Rovers being in the top 6 most of last season must have frightened him and Waggott to death

Leonard and Dolan starting up front says it all - one lad nowhere near ready and the other plainly not good enough. Until the striker problem is addressed this is going to be a difficult season.

It's the little things that do you - the small errors that lesser players make. This a is a mid-table squad and the quality is just not there

Apart from running around a lot what quality would that be?

That team may or may not win today but it has to be said it's not good, it's lacking in quality and it's certainly not top 6 material As it stands, and with 2 weeks to go until the window closes, we're weaker than last season

Yes, the match circa 1964-5 ? we were 2-0 down and came back to beat them 3-2. Another great game,. They were throwing bottles all over the place outside Ewood. I can't remember when changing ends stopped - probably by about 1970 or so. It was a sad day for football

Different era. Swapped ends at half time and had a bit of banter with opposition fans going the other way, but that's as far as it went. Football was fun then

Sorry, missed it. Were you there? I was sitting in the Nuttall St stand that day, near the Blackburn End. Never to be forgotten

Thanks, memories from 60 years ago! Next time I remember seeing Mackay at Ewood was about six years later with Derby County. Early days of the Clough era. Score was 1-1, again from memory

Correct. Rovers raced into a 3-0 lead, and Jimmy Greaves IIRC pulled 2 back before the break

The Spurs match was without doubt the best match and the best Rovers performance I've seen in a lifetime of watching Can still see those goals in my mind's eye. A brilliant day Andy McEvoy died in 1994.

There's always one more The Aussie press is a good read. They're not happy. 😀

I’ll have another go The Lionesses are the first senior England football team to reach a World Cup final since 1966 Hope this is ok with all the pedants

This is a football thread FFS.

They’re all shouting Go Spain outside the stadium apparently What a nation of tossers

England are in their first World Cup final since 1966

Excellent so good to beat them on their own midden

Don’t care what they call it. The game is football

Their defenders can’t deal with the long ball over the top

Soccer?????

Great goal but England should be winning

Should be 2-0. Bright missed free header

Good goal come on!!
