Just really hoping there isn’t some low buy out clause in the contract like Phillips had (appreciate they’re very different scenarios so I doubt it). Great news though assuming there is no curve ball like that. If only we had some form of budget the last 12 months to add to the very good pieces we already have

Women's World Cup 2023

Only 4 European countries at the Olympics seems strange anyway. Not sure if it’s always been like that. Some good nations missing out. -
Goalkeeping standards deteriorated

Some shockers from Raya tonight. I hope that agreement is binding for our little sum! They’ve had a shocker paying that much for a keeper whose stats really were not that good at Brentford. Just the obvious myth that he’s good with ball at feet as he’s Spanish (he isn’t). -
v Sheffield Wednesday (a) - 2/12/23
superniko replied to philipl's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Just checking it now…. Wednesday, Plymouth, Ipswich this season all lost already away Rotherham, Wigan, Sunderland last season we lost all 3 away from home Peterborough, Hull, Blackpool the season before that, we lost all 3 away from home Year before that we drew 1, lost 1, won 1. So it’s now 9 games we’ve lost in a row to the promoted league 1 teams away from home. Just shows how weak we are really -

I think the commentators said we have lost the last 8 games away from home to promoted league 1 sides (it was something along these lines). Absolutely sums up Blackburn Rovers under Venkys -

Should have been 2 yellows for that lad. 1 for the tackle. 1 for gobbing at both player and referee (oh and the 4 other horrible tackles he’s put in) -

Disgraceful refereeing. What can you do though when the standard is just so horrific and the same pleps get rolled out each week. -

Felt a bit soft to me. This keeper is dire though, another one under his body -

The referee was staring straight at that challenge on Szmodics. Disgraceful. The standard of referees is at an all time low (and I remember the decisions in the fergie days!!!) -

superniko replied to philipl's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Not sure how we haven’t scored in these last 5 minutes. Szmodics pass blocked to Leonard, Carter block on the line and Szmodics weak chance after Leonard’s pass then almost an OG on Leonard’s final cross -

Shocking from all 3 CBs. Hill with a poor header, Carter letting the cross in far too easily and Wharton losing the man in the middle. Dreadful defending -

superniko replied to philipl's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Team pretty much picks itself with the injuries / suspensions: Leo Brittain Carter Hill Pickering Tronstad Wharton Szmodics Moran Leonard Sigurdsson The only other option would be Garrett in midfield in place of Siggy/Leonard with Szmodics in the front 3 -
v Watford (h) 23/12/23
superniko replied to We Are The Rovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Yeah correct, £10 I believe then too. Jack Walker and lower BBE were sold out (think it was just under 19k but there were barely any Wigan fans there). It was also unfortunately the night Bradley Dacks premier league dreams ended. 0-0 draw though for all those floating fans! I’d expect us to beat 20k here though, in better form, playing better football, community behind it, Saturday 3pm and I’d expect Watford to bring more than / as many as Wigan (even though Watford don’t particular take many themselves). If we were playing Leeds / Sunderland we’d be getting 25k+ -

superniko replied to philipl's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I feel this match will say a lot about our season. Defeat (and arguably a draw) would feel like “same old Rovers” and just isn’t something a team with Top 6 aspirations end up with. Victory means the decent form continues, and has the potential to push us into the playoff places if Hull fail to beat Watford. -

How much did United pay for Onana? I honestly can’t believe how many howlers he’s got in him. Every other game there is a shocker. No idea how he is a professional, doesn’t even look good with ball at feet (which allegedly he is meant to be). -

Pickering has been solid, all their danger has come down their left, troubling our right backs. -

If we can hold on here and go to bottom of the league in 7th place it’ll be a huge confidence boost! -

Wharton’s pass taking all the comms by surprise, even Hyam. Superb finish by Sammie. New contract, same Sammie -

A lot of talk about Birmingham should have had a sending off but I’d argue Travis has been more blatant in deserving 2 yellows. He got very lucky in the 2nd minute. -

Cannot understand why we have Brittain playing left wing whilst Travis is playing right back. -

Well done to everyone involved in targeting the correct match! I’ll be back in the UK for Christmas so will be there with a few others. Hopefully we’re in the top 6 by that point and it’ll be a real party atmosphere. -

superniko replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Not seen any of the match but always great to win in a scrappy match (which it sounds like), and do so comfortably in the end. Positive GD now, no reason we shouldn’t go into that Leeds match in the playoff positions with Birmingham and Sheffield Wednesday up next. PNE crumbling in stoppage time. 5th and 6th are well up for grabs!! COYB
