My vote would go to any of Mark Bunn, Ruben Rochina, David Goodwillie, Mauro Formica or Simon Vukcevic. As unused substitutes they managed to sit on the bench without falling off. That was the most skill on view by any Rovers players on Saturday. Those who did get on the pitch were a disgrace.

If non-playing subs aren't allowed my vote would go to the fans who travelled down to the Emirate and then risked life and limb trying to get back to Blackburn after the game after watching the most inept performance in years. At least at Old Trafford Sam fielded a weakened side, this lot are supposed to be our best - heaven help us.

[Andy]

Nobody at all came out of the game with any credit.

Absolutely agree, Parson. The Fans PAID hard-earned money to be there and braved atrocious conditions to be humiliated. Nonetheless they sang in support throughout the match despite the ever-increasing Arsenal score board. I saw two young boys who came with a disabled person and helper, wearing their Rovers shirts proudly, their little faces shining with anticipation, the party leaving dejectedly a few minutes before the end of the match. Totally unacceptable.

Totally unacceptable but totally predictable, Mum.

We've been a shambles all season.

[K-Hod]

Nobody.

[roverandout]

i would liked to have voted for the referee when he blew the final whistle!!

[Guest Wen Y Hu]

I very, very nearly gave the options of Chris Samba and Michel Salgado, but thought better of it. If no-one votes for any of the players, then that in itself is a rather powerful statement. Vote for the "Didn't see it but would like to see results anyway" as a form of protest vote if you will.

Arsenal fans who went to the 8 - 2 thrashing at OT where issued a free ticket for another away match........... 4 - 3 at Ewood!!!

Im sure if enough of you write in to complain that you spent x amount getting to London in dangerous weather conditions and didnt get home until x time and felt let down that the players didnt make anywhere near the same effort on the pitch, they probably would sort you out with a free ticket? Worth a try.

[Clitherover]

I stopped watching at 39 minutes, Pedersen's free kick was sublime everything else was tragic.

MOM HAHA FUNNIEST THREAD EVER OR SICKEST

There is more chance of plaiting p1ss.

[Rovers in America]

I'm going to name the goal netting for man of the match. That thing took a beating and didn't tear a hole with the abuse it took from Arsenal.

[blue_n_white99]

Alex Chamberlain

[JAL]

The only Rovers player to make a lone, positive contribution in this game was, Morten Gamst Pedersen with his well taken free kick goal.

mom = MGP !

[Drover]

Which joker went for petrovic! He would have given Martin olsson a run for his money as worst player of the match imo

[Stuart]

The fans who paid the money and braved the weather.

I seriously suggest it should be added to the list so that it can be voted on and saved for posterity.

The Ball

[AllRoverAsia]

Givet - he knew where the game was going, knew the weather reports and in French thought f this sh 1 t I'm out of here and off to drink some wine and find a car I can't drive.
