I personally felt Middlesbrough was a bit of a pressure game and after that performance I would have some confidence in the playoffs games. Only Fulham , just based on our last experience but they should get automatic.

I was starting to think we needed an upgraded on Travis until the Hull game . Then realised how important he is .

Strong and dogid team performance, never in doubt 😉 Delighted for SG , he's never going to be a technical player , but he can be a right handful and defends from the front. Though he almost looked emotional post scoring. Zeefuik looks good, might need bigger shinpads in the UK

Bournemouth losing at home to Hull , leaves me feeling a little better about our last result. Need a good performance and result soon .... Monday would be great , but not confident .

Anyone know how the 18's got on this afternoon vs Burnley?

Was Garrett the rovers player right at the start, who walked towards a spurs player looking like he was going to nut him ? Near the technical box

I think our performances will pick up again after January. It's not good with a number of the players possibly moving on this window and possible replacements being brought in . We need 100% commitment to have a chance, but a few could be hoping to tie up a deal now after some good form. Once the window closes and Dack plus new signing are getting up to speed, I hope we hit some form again, but might be a couple dodgy games beforehand.

Yes correct sorry it came from https://www.claretandhugh.info/rovers-give-irons-fee-for-striker-diaz/

Hi , did you know something about a £28.5m price tag , as a Hammers site now saying it . Just wondered if they got it from this forum , or there's more to it ? https://c.newsnow.co.uk/A/1112699869?-11198:839

I think until we return to the Premier league most of our signings will be young inexperienced players with potential If we are sticking to our wage structure, we cannot afford the wages of players in their prime, who can impact the first team straight away. The only exception I see is in the foreign market, which is harder now. A lot of forward planning needed (succession lines I believe TM reference to ) . This is fine but not good for a quick fix as would be needed if BBD leaves this month.

Yes if done quickly and 20 mill was available for transfers . If most money not reinvented then no

Think we are missing Travis in midfield, Davenport on for Gallagher

Looks like we are going on the attack this time 🤞

Acid test for Buckley being able to Marshall a midfield in place of Travis I guess. Also the fitness of JRC , hope he gets a clear run now

Good piece on the possible Markanday effect. https://www.lancs.live/sport/football/football-news/blackburn-rovers-markanday-asian-community-22776412?utm_source=linkCopy&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=sharebar

I agree on now being short at cb, but think it's the right thing to do with Carter for his development. Hopefully we can get someone in, with the carrot being two of the current cb's probably won't be here in 6 months time. So there will be first team opening in the near future.

Also Dack seemed to like it

Ahh yes I have seen a couple of the interviews, good stuff 👍 I don't really go on twitter, other than following links to rovers topics.

Think this is why we need another LB ,would be interesting to see Edun as a Travis option

Yep nearly said a few times, doesn't look like he's progressing, if anything influencing less than before last sessions injury. I know his role is a limited one but give me a Savage/ Flitcroft/ Batty , think an upgrade as an option, wouldn't go a miss in future .

The club site is shit really 😁 In the last match against Stoke they didn't even bother updating the score from a starting 0 -0, no line up, updates etc . Even to log in to rovers TV you need to do it twice

It's this period ' The Underdogs ' which I still picture Rovers as ( Souness/ Hughes), rather than the title winning period and the Venkys. I'm hoping Zeefuik will bring some bite

Would like to see another LB , CB , CM as cover, plus an attacker to rotate with BBD

Defense 7 , Kaminski & Rothwell 8 , rest 4/5 😁

One of the worst matches to watch but a great 3 points, unlucky not to have a penalty and Cardiff not having a player sent off . Days like these define a season
