😂 I was giving it a few months to suss out how crap we will be but by all means it might be sooner

We could stumble on with our gk defence and midfield. we absolutely cannot survive next season without two first choice winger and a striker. Spend every last penny here and then bodge a few loans in to cover other positions.

See you all in October 😂 Massive relief and let’s see what the summer brings

I’m not normally one to slag off Gallagher but he looks totally uninterested today and barely lifted his legs all game.

It’s lining up for a goal difference relegation.

There is an air of predictability about today. I can see us slip into the relegation places on goal difference with 10 mins to go. For those of us on this thread back before Xmas it has felt inevitable all season with the performances, management, squad quality and circus off the field. I just hope that come 2:30pm we scrape through and we can all just forgot this season ever happened. With 6 home wins all season it shouldn’t be hard to.

https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/24296607.eustace-gives-clear-indication-blackburn-rovers-future/ Appears to be no recognition of the total lack of wins/points since he came in or that he is under pressure if we go down.

The difference without Wharton is palpable, with him balls went forward or in behind to start attacking play. Without him we continually go across the back line into the corner, back out again, across the line. Meanwhile all 11 opposition players have filled their box whilst we move it along like a hot potato going nowhere.

His points return is awful and his media talk infuriating. I wouldn’t mind if he left at the end of the season. At the same time the squad is poor from an attacking sense. Losing Wharton and not replacing him was the death of passing it forwards. Costello has had a go but largely looked poor in that role, same for Buckley.

Well it's pretty much guaranteed that we lose and by a decent margin. So we are relying on the 3 other teams to lose or draw to keep us up. Pray to whatever god you believe in.

I think the abysmal quality of our loans this season is a large factor in how we have ended up in this mess. The last good loan we had was Harvey Elliot and almost all of them since have been no better than our own u23s.

Thought we did ok today but just had no luck in the box with lots of missed/blocked chances. Its largely down to a lack of attacking quality as we have mentioned loads of times, the final ball or finish poor most the time. Just feel flat and have done for a while, want the season declared safe and over but rovers just keep prolonging the agony. Its slim that all the results go against us next week but would be just our luck it happens.

The players have proved time and time again at Ewood this season that they are complete bottle jobs. We have barely taken a point off anyone at home and just turn up expecting to lose these days. All we hear before these 'crucial' games is about how the fans need to get behind them and all stick together. Then when Saturday comes they play like non-league plodders kicking them in their own net or passing it out of play. Then after the game the manager and players say "we have an incredible opportunity next week to put it right". Well guess what dickheads you have run out of games.

As soon as I saw it mentioned in the fans forum that the average ticket at other clubs has gone up 3/4% or whatever its clear what is being positioned. Best we could hope for is a price freeze ( which as another poster said is £50 more than most paid last year). If PNE tickets are £250 does that make ours almost £200 more expensive? Plus no free child places. And the club/players wonder why we are all so pissed off and won't renew.

Presumably the Wharton and Raya money will be drip feed in small amounts over their contracts. That probably means Szmodic goes to keep us going till after xmas. That or they will have to take out some dodgy loan like last time. This £1 for £1 offsetting with the bank of India seems to be pie in the sky as they could have already done that if it was the case.

Yeah I suppose. It at least lets Waggot know it’s one less ST sale next year

I said I wasn’t going after last Sunday but I am a glutton for punishment. As a bonus it gives me an opportunity to launch my season ticket on the pitch in disgust at the end. Confident of another loss and those below winning. Then we have to beat Leicester on the final day.

Reading those minutes, wow, it’s like entering a different reality.

With injuries, contact expiries and expected sales the squad next year could be the worst ever to grace Ewood park. It’s been bad enough watching us at home this season but next year could be 0-3 losses week in week out.

https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/24273366.season-tickets-will-greater-test-blackburn-fans-ever/ As well as the story there are some good ideas and similar points of view in the comments to this as there is on here. I really hope Waggot has got the general mood of supporters leading into him releasing the prices as will go down like a lead balloon unless its a massive reduction and promises of investment in the match day experience.

I think at this point unless they give them away for free they will be lucky to get 5k sales next year.

Agree with most of this. As soon as Adam Wharton left it took the only creativity out of the team, a player who could make a forward pass to change the game. All we are left with is plodders who work hard but hate having the ball at their feet. Its like a hot potato and they cant wait to pass it 6 yards to someone else to remove the responsibility for it. If I was Sam Gallagher and got any grief for my goal record I'd just respond with that fact that he gets zero chances created for him. How is he going to score with balls launched into orbit for him whilst he is just past the halfway line. The squad is a total shit show full of similar players, no wingers, no strikers, no creativity, no pace, no dribbling and no power. Whatever summer budget we have must be spent on 4-5 attacking players.

So far this season I have sat and watched us lose to... Hull City Sunderland Leicester Swansea Preston Leeds Watford Queens Park Rangers Ipswich Sheffield Wednesday Combined with fantastic home draws to teams such as.. Rotherham Plymouth Huddersfield Millwall I have seen us win only once (v Stoke) since the 12th December. If anyone thinks we are going to beat Coventry then think again.

Well he will have to replace my season ticket with an away fan every game next year as I won’t be going. maybe that’s his plan after all, probably makes more money out of them than us.

Poor player and a really unlikeable captain. Would be out the door and replaced at a normal club this summer.
