[Archived] Blackburn Rovers FC v Plymouth Argyle FC

[neophox]

The problem is we need to know how to break down poor sides., we seem to Do well against top sides.

[Mercer]

Just now, Hasta said:

If Nyambe is at centre back, his tendency to get under high balls worries me.  If it's Williams then someone is playing out of position. Bizarre.

Square pegs in round holes whichever way you look at it.

[neophox]

Nice to see Scott Wharton in the reserves.. think he could play in first team soon!

[roversoutsider]

Two ex Rovers lining up at the heart of defence for Plymouth. Songo'o and Ryan Edwards who was part of our academy for long. 

Funny how a lot of our  youth players from the "dark ages" when our academy wasn't all that are playing regularly in this league and yet our current crop of youngsters who are supposed to be good can't get a look in. 

[neophox]

We need to play as we did against Rotherham in all games.

[RV Blue]

Nyambe doesn't inspire much confidence at centre half... no win tonight (should) = Mowbray out.

[Mercer]

in 13 league games this season, Plymouth have won just 1 game and lost 9 games.

You can get 1/2 on Rovers' win and I think the bookies have been mighty generous given Argyle's appalling record.  That is a 50% return on your stake and it would take 30+ years to get that in the bank with current interest rates.  Tonight is the night to get some early Christmas money.

Jesus, I know we're not blessed with centre backs, but Plymouth will fancy getting at those two tonight, especially Nyambe.

As for the likes of Graham, how many chances do some players need? Tinker Tony just cannot settle on anything.

Graham will get plenty of chances being one of the top earners in the whole league.

He needs to start showing it. Hopefully starting tonight.

Having seen Songo'o play in Scotland last season, unless he has had a complete change, he makes Ward look steady. I hope I don't have to eat my words. 

[AdamRochina]

Cheers mercer going to put 20 on a Plymouth win now

[Mercer]

Off for a couple of pints.

I'll leave you with a thought - who thinks Mowbray picked this team !?!?

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

And still Chapman can't get a start.

Strange line up there

Raya

 

Caddiis

Nyambe

Charlie

Williams 

 

Bennett

Smallwood

Whittingham

 

Dack

 

Graham

Antonnson

So it's a 4-3-1-1/2 and a1/2 formation then.

@#/? or bust for Mowbray.

License to print christmas money

Can’t be there tonight as in Germany, but after Saturday I thought Ward, Williams and Conway were unselectable: Two out of three are gone I see: I suppose in reality you could have changed all of the outfield players if options were there.

Raya kept us alive last time, hope he isn’t needed tonight.

Dack to have a stormer and drive us on.

Well, I can hope, that’s all we have left!

[Tom]

As rubbish as it is at the moment there's just something I love about a midweek trip to Ewood! 

I cant imagine the Plymouth fans who will get home at 3am will be quite as enthused  

[Lihamylly]

Soon it begins. Thums up!

Certainly we need a win, but even more I would like to see that we finally get our @#/? together and start to play with the heart and soul needed when you put on the shirt of this fine fine club.

[JohnD]

I hate going to home matches, zero atmosphere and maximum moaning. Still they pay their money so are entitled.

ifollow rules ok

[G Somerset Rover]

Smallwood booked already. Ominous.

[Swanson]

Smallwood, it's a bit early for a yellow card..

[McClarky]

My ifollow is awful tonight. Fuzzy screen and keeps freezing.  What I can see looks pisch though.

Strange, mine is possibly the best yet

[McClarky]

Maybe the wind or something.

[Lihamylly]

How does it look? Have we taken steps from last match?

[JohnD]

Two great chances gone begging and not even on target

Hopefully a jinx but while we've had most of the ball Graham looks lazy, Dack can't head and Antonsson doing nothing with the ball in good positions 

A lot of walking around with heads down.

On too still though
