Blackburn Rovers vs Brentford, Friday, March 12.

[RevidgeBlue]

100% down to Trybull that. Atrocious play.

As for the penalty, seen them given but on balance thought Lenihan was merely standing his ground.

[Dreams of 1995]

Was never a penalty 

[CambridgeRover]

Buckley our best player by a large margin

[TimmyJimmy]

Never never never never a pen, simple.

[WacoRover]

Bah

Are you even watching. Lenihan literally stood there and did nothing. I thought the ref was giving a yellow for diving at first

I am. It was soft but there was contact. We've known for long enough that those kinds of decisions will be given against us and yet repeatedly we give them that decision to make. Lenihan is one of the main culprits and in my opinion has been a liability at the back for a long time now.

Lenihan clashed knee to knee.  There was contact

There's been contact both times Brereton has been on the floor too. Ref hasn't blown up for those.

The Brentford lad made contact with Lenihan, though.  It was about as much a foul as Brereton trying to buy a free-kick up the other end.

Would have wanted it at the other end tbf 

Aye, we'd have wanted it.  But you shout for anything.  We never get em, though.  Two soft ones against us in four days but the only one I remember us getting this season was Gallagher against PNE.

[jim mk2]

We're way off the pace here. Brentford so much better

[TonyM]

We give away far too many soft penalties.... and usually it's Lenihan 

[benhben]

Could concede a few here. Brentford walking through the midfield with ease. 

[Hasta]

Lenihan puts his arm across his waist..Very similar to the Speedie penalty at Wembley.

Brereton does fall down alot. He probably has form

[Tom]

Remember what was said after Branthwaite at Boro ‘it evens out’ 

We’ve got a lot of decisions go for us this season as well

Eh there is support and then there is just pure bias. None of them have been better than another and it's only 15 mins in🤷

[Proudtobeblue&white]

Last refereed against Forest away, yes he was shit then.

TBH i'd have been bloody annoyed that our player went down before laughing hysterically that the ref gave a pen... But i'm old fashioned

They've had 9 days rest. Perfect excuse for Tony right there

The bloke literally ran into Lenihan. The officiating is a joke. I genuinely don't know what Lenihan could have done if we are judging that to be a penalty, however soft. His only other option would have been to run away.

None of them have been better than another? What?

[G Somerset Rover]

We look terrible here. Lethargic, poor on the ball, creating zilch.

[simongarnerisgod]

we`re getting overrun in midfield,do something tony,drop a bit deeper,switch dolan and gallagher and go a bit more direct,they are walking through us at the moment

Nah.  I'm still appealing for Morten's penalty at Arsenal 🤣🤣
