I felt before tonight that unlike Birmingham last season when their cup run ultimately affected their season, for us it wouldn't. Our league form is so bad that there's no way a cup run would hinder us.

The League Cup offered a glimmer of light in what is going to be the worst season for Rovers in my memory, if not ever.

Now even that glimmer is being extinguished.

Kean off, you keaning keanwit.

Why are they saying on Sky it'a a cup 'upset' ?

It's not an upset, even before we saw the team it was entirely predictable.

'It's just long ball from Blackburn, no guile or invention, Cardiff are much the better footballing side'.

Think you've got your teams mixed up son, we don't do 'long ball'.

Cracking display by the lads tonight - you can clearly hear the "Kean Out" chants on radio lancs.

I wonder if Kean will do the decent thing.

My only hope is that the Carling Cup run had previously masked the poor run of Premiership results we were on. No matter how you spin it - we have been beaten by a Championship side - hopefully owners will understand this (but not holding from breath)

Honestly, I'm not surprised by the result. Was expecting us to lose once I saw the line up. If he is finally sacked I will view the loss as a huge positive. A new manager, and no more distraction to try to get us out of the relegation zone. Staying in the PL has to be our priority and we know we won't be able to do that with this idiot in charge.

Was this one of the six "winnable" games? I can't remember. Anyway, good performance from the lads. Gave the Cardiff keeper a night off, which is a lovely gesture.

And I still don't think they'll sack him.

Posted

Have we ever won a game with him playing?

It's a good question.

I'm sure he'll make it one day, as he does have some attributes, but he's so far from being a Premiership player right now and it's costing us points.

Quote from Kean on Granda Reports tonight, we haven't failed to score in all our away matches this season :blink:

We have now, and we havent failed to concede in away games this season!!!

God, what a bloody numpty he is, he is quickly running out of positive stats!!

All I want is all three of the owners to explain why Kean is employed at our football club, just one reason is all they need to give.

The only reason they could give would be cost of sacking him but they already said money is no problem.

New contract fully earned tonight :wacko: :wacko: :wacko:

I think we did well, Cardiff are in the top 2 teams in the country and we had players out and only conceded two, we can take positives from that.

Their keeper must have made 7 or 8 top saves and on another day we win that game comfortably.

"we conceded 2 goals at Leyton Orient, and have only conceded 2 against a team a league higher... this is obvious progress, we'll take those positives and look to get it right at the top of the pitch. everyone can see what we're building towards, the majority are behind us. just yesterday I was in the village and somebody told me "watching Rovers is like watching Barcelona... but better", hopefully we can turn the 1% around. if not my 99% will beat the sh1t out of them."
