Rovers…Are We Any Good ?
Miller11 replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
When we are good, we are good. When we are bad we are absolutely woeful, hopeless, toothless, useless and clueless. -
Tonight is completely on the manager. It’s so utterly frustrating because we obviously have some good players and the ability to win games both pretty and ugly. Unfortunately I feel JDT has tried to be too clever for his own good, and then too stubborn to change things. This inverted wingbacks nonsense needs to stop immediately. We got away with it once largely due to Hedges, but it’s an absolute mess. Replacing Vale with Hirst was like swapping a yellow cone for an orange one. It was blindingly obvious we were losing tonight from about the 8th minute. There’s no excuses for a performance like that, and we shouldn’t be shrugging our shoulders and writing this off as a transitional season. Promotion is there for the taking. I’m almost as pissed off with the red card as I am with the manager, team and performance. Wasn’t even a foul, but obviously the powers that be want tackling consigned to the past and every team to make 3,000 pointless passes per game. There’s a good reason I watch barely any professional football that doesn’t involve Rovers.

Ah yes of course! Like about half a dozen Man Utd managers I completely forgot he existed!

Thanks to Venky’s dumbing down we haven’t been represented at a World Cup since 2010, although Kaminski might buck that trend and make the Belgium squad. It’s worth noting we will have one of our home grown players there for the first time since Duff though, as Raya is likely to go with Spain. There’s probably only a handful of our homegrown talents to have appeared at a World Cup (Clayton, Douglas, Newton?). Genuinely think Wharton could do so one day.

It’s been used at Ewood before as well, and I’d wager in hundreds of other grounds around the world at the turn of the millennium by clubs who couldn’t be arsed showing an iota of originality.

One thing you can’t question yesterday was Dack’s attitude, he certainly put in a shift “for the team”. Trust repaid? Maybe the situation isn’t as irreparably damaged as many of us thought.

No need for this thread to be descending, particularly after another good away win and with Rovers sitting second. It is also completely out of order to try and belittle what people do to earn a living.
