Just let that resonate with everyone.

Incredibly frustrating. We have the best manager since Big Sam, play some terrific football and we get some very good results despite JDT having to manage with one hand tied behind his back. Sadly, I think JDT will soon be off and who can blame him. So dejected tonight.

Not sure wtf has happened with Siggy. Seen him holding his groin a couple of times - carrying injury?

All teams need a nasty hard bastard. Think L'pool, Souey, United, Roy Kean. Even Ipswich have Morsy! We lack that nasty, mean streak and teams know it and bully us.

Brilliant finish but you are spot on.

Could have been booked for either. Wouldn't have committed a second offence with an Andy Todd in the team!

Think there will be lots of goals tonight. Head says we will struggle more defensively than PNE. Heart says we win by the odd goal in a 5 goal thriller.

Used to hate going to Burnden Park - horrible experience. Also remember either either 1973 or 1974 when the Bolton mob en masse arrived early on the train in Blackburn town centre. It was carnage and men against boys as Rovers' fans caught up in it took a real pasting.

The mind really does boggle! Some clown at Ewood probably thinks they'll need to hire more match day staff and they can’t do that! I keep saying it but it's very true, IMO, Ewood is a nous free zone.

Nixon reporting JRC out for 12 weeks. Feck - that is some hammy issue.

Huge opportunity for Scott Wharton to get his Rovers' career back on track - derby games can make heroes! The lad has the passion and has shown the ability previously - a couple of early clean, crunching tackles will give him an enormous confidence boost (and it's confidence the issue IMO).

A terrific boost.

Indeed, a 'super fan'. Think it's clear, Rovers were a huge, huge part of his life. Can recall, as though it was yesterday, his photo in the LT holding a banner on Nuttall Street with the words 'Lee must stay' when Newcastle came calling back in 1975. Thoughts, as always with someone's passing, are with the family. RIP Alan.

Agree. Injuries now biting hard. According to Jackson in today's LT, return dates for Hyam, JRC and Gallagher all ominously 'unknown' whilst Carter expected back for Stoke game (25 Nov). Think we'll be lucky if any of Hyam, JRC and Gallagher make it back before Christmas.

See Jim's post below. Don't think JDT will land a 'big job' until he can add to his cv eg a promotion to PL. Think he would have a much better chance of achieving that at Norwich. They are a decent club (similar to what we once were) who generally give their managers a fair shot unless it's plainly not working, have good facilities (ground, training, academy etc) and average 25k+ regularly. A lovely area to live in and would be a better career step than the cr@p he has to contend with here.

Agree, given the circumstances he has to manage in, JDT is doing remarkably well. That doesn't mean I agree with all his football decisions. Without doubt, his ability to fashion the playing style we have and get decent results with one hand tied behind his back is quite remarkable and will have not gone unnoticed. Surprised at Norwich appointing Knapper as sporting director. His CV isn't that impressive. IMO, also based on some tit bits from a good Arsenal connection, I think it will be hugely challenging for him. Think he's bottled his first big input - it seems Wagner has lost both players and fans and there can be no way back from that. Given Knapper's Arsenal background, I think you've put 2 and 2 together and come up with 5. If I was involved at Norwich, JDT would be on my shortlist.

The grass is not always greener.............................. https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/leicester-southampton-and-west-brom-place-ex-blackburn-striker-on-january-transfer-radar/ We may soon see him at Ewood again lining up for the opposition. Burnley and Palace also linked.

Absolutely. This guy cost us a relatively big fee. Given the fee involved and his one full Swedish cap, I was expecting a far more assured and capable goalkeeper. Based upon his performances so far, one could be forgiven for thinking we'd taken a cheap punt on a League Two prospect.

My big worry is losing JDT particularly with him frequently making it quite clear the 'project' has changed. He must feel he is being asked to do the job with one arm tied behind his back. I think his frustrations are very clear. The irony is our style of football and performance at Norwich yesterday will almost certainly see the departure of Wagner and it is not inconceivable Norwich will cast an envious eye in the direction of JDT; if they came in for him, I think he would be off like a shot and who could blame him.

I really hope we do and money can be found. This lad's value will rocket over the next year or two. There's not much this lad hasn't got in his locker. Very impressive.

Another concern is the number of shots/headers that don't seem to stick! He really does seem to have an issue with both catching (crosses) and holding on to (shots/headers) - I think he's cost us at least 3 goals. I was desperate for him to be the answer to Pears and I would stick with him (we may have no other option) until the window reopens but the signs after 7/8 games or so are a tad worrying - struggling to even call him a decent 'shot stopper' and if a goalie hasn't even got that in his locker................

Unbelievably, odds on Preston win are 3/1. We will barely have a defence come Friday and behind that defence will stand a nervous, error prone, 'draculaesque' goalie. The aerial bombardment will be akin to America's bombing of Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia! This is some opportunity to fill those Christmas stockings - make the most of it and soften the blow of a PNE win.

Each to their own!

He's the least capable of the three- raw and rubbish.

Rest assured, Ryan Lowe will have noted. There will be some bombardment on Friday.
