These two goalkeeper comments show just how wired everyone is on this forum.   Honestly, most of you would be better off searching for UFOs.   Weirdos.  

That's a very strange comment to make on a forum dedicated to people talking about Blackburn Rovers, Football Club

well done

If we want that pressing number 10 like we had with Szmodics then Dolan sees the ideal man for that role

Surely they will arrange a game for the likes of Weimann, Batth, McFadzean etc behind closed doors otherwise they all go into the season with no game time.

Most likely tomorrow or Sunday

From what I read, lots ot chances fall his way (that isnt a fluke) but he is not very clinical.

He had 3 chances so far but without seeing them I don't know how good of a chance they were. Hopefully we see some good highlights of the game by Stockport or Rovers.

Playing Dolan at #10 hides his lack of pace.

He's always looked most effective playing as a False 9 (when we were shit out of strikers) where his initial burst, strength, low centre of gravity has helped him hold the ball up.

if he could work on his decision making he`d be a far better player,he always seems to make the wrong one

give him some time,he`s bound to be lacking match sharpness

If he's a real handful but can't hit a barn door, is that considered an upgrade on Gallagher 🤔

Yes as Gallagher was neither a handful or clinical.

Of course it is, when ever was Gallagher a handful?

Its not about tonight. Just a general comment based on what I have read about him in general.

I’ve just checked and he’s definitely a keeper. Nixon knows his stuff!

[BankEnd Rover]

Gueye with another great chance then sets up Dolan who missed a sitter.

Sounds like we are playing ok but, not surprisingly, can't finish. 

[chaddyrovers]

[Forever Blue]

Sounds like a promising debut from the Mak Daddy. 

[Madon]

I've Request A Bet on Big Mak being top scorer in the league. What a beast 🤣

To give Sam G his dues, there has been times mainly off the bench when he’s come on and been a handful. Albeit not many but I do remember him looking half decent on occasion off the bench

Agree, Gally was better off the bench.
Best wishes to him.
