[Archived] Blackburn v Millwall 24th November, 2012

[philipl]

Keogh has had two goals disallowed.

Defensively all over the place today.

[Bundesburn]

3:20pm

20mins: Millwall almost take the lead when Wood does well to keep ball in and find Keogh who sees a sh1t blocked by Hanley.

Rather lol-tastic typo from Alex James on LT site.

(Edited to evade BRFCS' profanity filter)

Ipswich losing at Peterborough. Yikes. Anyone still wish we got McCarthy?

[Mercer]

Hurry back Andy Cryer all is forgiven !

Today was always going to be a tough one and a fair old measure as to Berg's progress with Rovers.

[Steve Moss]

Rovers has had 5 shots, 2 on target, compared to 4, 2 on target, from Millwall. Millwall has committed 5 fouls to Rovers 0. 40% possession to Rovers.

Adrian Durham said Millwall had 3 goals disallowed, what planet is he on exactly?

"Millwall, Millwall, you're all really dreadful, and all your girlfriends are unfulfilled and alienated." COYB!

Black Books?

[philipl]

Reads as though Rovers coming more into it now.

Need to get a result the way the other games are going.

[old darwen blue]

39 minutes 7 shots to 4 for us and 51% possession.

That sounds better

Tweets pleading for Rovers to make the pressure count

[Boylerhaus]

So many set pieces. So many poor deliveries

Listening to it on Roversplayer, from the sounds of it we were lucky to be even after half hour but controlled it since then while making few real chances

[rovermagic]

Gerald on Rafio Rovers driving me round the twist. Millwall dominating. Our attack, defence poor. Just Dann and Henley seem to have played ok. Murphy and Rochina poor.

.Pedestrian and poor. Peterborough performance put into perspective.

Jim I'm not seeing the game live, so take my comments with a grain of salt, but 11 shots, 5 on target, for Rovers compared to 5 shots, 3 on target, for Millwall, would indicate we are creating plenty of chances.

And how is Joshua King doing? I see he replaced Marcus Olsson.

[philipl]

King on for Markus

[Clitherover]

Leeds are beating Palace, 1-0.

[Steve Moss]

I see Rochina has taken almost half of our 14 shots, compared to 1 from Rhodes. Is he being greedy (and thereby starving Rhodes) or is he taking real chances?

Probably. I hope Gomes comes on soon, he could be just what we need by the sounds of things.

[davulsukur]

1-0 down

[Steve Moss]

Still, with 2 yellows Millwall must be feeling the pressure.

We have 20 minutes to get it back and then some.

[philipl]

This has 0-0 all over it.

Hope we can nick it because the other results are swinging in our favour.

Oh crikey- I jinxed that didn't I?

[SamTheShrew]

unlikely now

[Oklahoma]

0-1

Nuno Gomes on for Formica
