Low of all lows...At least it will wake those who don't understand where the issue lies...

You reckon? I seriously doubt it!!

[bigbrandjohn]

Bit early to be playing to get the manager sacked.🤔

You would have thought with half of them in the shop window they would play like they were " shiny  bargains"  rather than " faded threads from better days"

Didn’t realise there was VAR in the championship. Shite anyway, season over.

The only positive is that we didn’t play as badly as we did against Derby and Stoke.

I never want to see ACD in a Rovers shirt again. We looked the better team and Cardiff looked knackered till he came on. Just send him back now.

The ref has reversed a penalty decision due to pressure from Cardiff players.

FUCK OFF!

Can't do that. It's been given

[OsloRover]

No more talk of play-offs or a play-off push, we were never going to finish in the top six. We’re lucky we have enough points on the board to avoid relegation.

We don’t score nearly enough goals and our defensive solidity went out the door with Eustace. 

Good luck Ismael, you’ll need it.

He does my fucking head in. In a sea of shit he winds me up the most.

Comes out with bollocks on his Instagram after his shambolic performance in midweek then backs it up with this.

Agreed. Stinks the place out.

I was surprised how poor he was - struggled with basic passing and movement.

You cannot tell me that we don't have better players in the Academy.

I played LW in a charity match at Ewood last year and I was genuinely several shades better than ACD was today.

[Gamst]

To lose consecutive games to Derby, Stoke and Cardiff who all hadn’t won in many games is actually embarrassing. We were in the playoffs so it’s not like we had nothing to play for. 2 weeks into his reign and the playoff chances are over. I’m still really annoyed that Eustace didn’t just finish the season with us as we were well placed but he’s showing how talented he is at Derby. The owners now have a manager that matches their ambition. What on earth will next season bring? We are utterly broken and I can’t recall ever feeling as uninspired as I do now in my 30 years of supporting the club. Please please please please sell the club. Please.

I'd quite like to two foot Hyam, the soft sod.

He’s a different player without Batth.

When are Batth and Beck coming back?

Mate said it was pretty toxic at full time.  Travis arguing with a fan in the riverside.

I'd have Markanday over ACD everyday of the week...ACD is never going to make it sadly.

Ismael is already finished wether he realises it or not. His failings are a representation of the failings of the club. Perhaps somewhat unfairly, he will take the flak for Waggot and the owners. If he had a bit of sense, he'd resign and walk away because there's absolutely NOTHING he can do to fix this. He isn't good enough. 

 

For the sake of your mental health folks... Forget your season tickets next season, it won't be worth it. Forget this lot, they don't deserve your time and money.

Relegation absolutely nailed on for next season with this shower of crap led by an utterly clueless coach and managed by a bunch of lying self-serving idiots. Probably the most hopeless situation I've seen in more than 60 years. 

[benhben]

Lost interest in this bunch of chancers and journeymen. Self sabotage again from the crooks above. Gonna stop following results now. 

Pay for bargain basement players with bargain basement manager...get the results you deserve. Rotten to the core.

Travis’s body language was terrible in the last 5-10 minutes. It’s understandable that he’s disappointed but he should be professional, lead by example and play till the final whistle. Not just booting the ball anywhere in frustration.

Ismael “we have to show desire and conviction from the first second” 

 

what a prick 

 

surely that’s a given

Like Hyam, spouting nothing but hot air and bollocks pre-match.

His nosedives post Christmas coincide very nicely with that of the wider team.

Venky's don't let managers resign, lol. He's either stuck here for 3 and a half years or not working for 3 and a half years.

I'm not impressed either but Batth is a huge miss from the  defence.

Our better defensive displays came with Brittain ,Batth Hyam and Beck.Only one of those is playing today.

Our defence at the moment is shakey but the real problem is players lazily giving the ball away putting us under unneccessary pressure.

Today it was ACD, the other day it was Cantwell.

Why the hell he brought on ACD for Dennis I'll never know. I know Dennis was injured and the bench was as weak as piss, but he was probably the worst pick of the bunch.

Hyam's challenge for their second goal was laughable.

[BigUts]

Embarrassing, really.

Sadly the ref got it right to overturn the pen as it was Gueye who handled the ball.

This club is finished until the Rao family leave, and sadly I think I might be too. Emotionally it's almost too much to take now. I'm about to tick 40 and can't believe we have been in this spiral since my mid-twenties.

The rot has properly set in, and we rolled the dice with JDT and Eustace and got a pair of 6s but Ismael is another Coyle. We are cooked this season and next.

[Riverandout]

Feel sorry for Ismael, they haven't given him enough time to get relegated. 

[Bbrovers2288]

Crazy after 4 games but we aren’t a normal club, ismael is a dead man walking here, be as well walking the now if not the end of the season, it’s only going to get worse. But 0 points out of derby, stoke and Cardiff isn’t anywhere near good enough and his cards marked already 

[superniko]

Thoroughly enjoyed not watching today. I’m done with this club until Venkys, Pasha, Waggott and Gestede are all gone.

They are a disgrace to our football club
