Stonewall IPA for me tonight Tom

Rudy Gestede: ‘Performances are getting better’.

[Tom]

The flaccid nature of the game has sucked the anger out of the fans it seems

Could do with a spark 

[sharpysharps86]

I can see them potting Ismael out of sheer desperation, thus wiping out the summer transfer budget 🥲

[had.e.nuff]

just a good shot there of the manager thinking what can i spend my pay off money on

Oh we're dreadful - but they're shite. 

They'd need to buy a whole new team if they went up.

Can you really? That would mean them admitting they'd made a mistake - and cost money. Won't happen

[DE.]

Not even sure what Ismael says at half time. "Win this one and I'll resign" might be the only thing that would do the trick, as these players are not interested in playing for him at all.

[Proudtobeblue&white]

Maggot is committing the criminal offence of fraud, taking a wage the size of his from our club. Save for all the bosses of the failing wate companies, who else least deserves his salary? We might as well put Jack's statue on the dug out, at least it would galvanise the players. Our manager is so statuesque and fucking lacking in ideas.

So embarrassing, Boro could take us apart second half. Abject all over.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Worse than I ever thought possible.

Any normal club would sack Pishmael tonight. 

 

He might get sacked tonight , a deflection tactic by Waggott and CO

[rock steady]

Who is getting the second half red card? Few candidates.

[DanielMB]

xG of 0,01 for Rovers. That’s something.

Good deflection tactic.

[jim mk2]

Another abysmal half. Boro at a canter and we don't like like scoring a goal in a month of Sundays

Even the protesters have been numbed into silence

[LDRover]

It's only 2-0 because Boro have took their foot off the gas. If they really fancy it they could get 5 or 6 no bother.

[roverandout]

Good to hear the fans booing at half time

[WacoRover]

Nothing encouraging so far today. Not at Ewood, anyway. I feel sorry for our fans, they deserve better.

This game has similar vibes to the Bolton home defeat way back in 2011. Unhappy crowd, terrible team performance, awful manager / head coach who's way out of his depth.

The fact that we're still going through the same problems with the same owners some 14 years later is soul destroying.

I had a flat tyre on the way to the game that day. Arrived 5 minutes after kick off. Stood behind the people that unfurled the big "Kean Out" flag, and left at half time. Didn't return for a year.

When I saw the team I thought our midfield looked weak 2 min in and it is what team as he picked not looking  good can someone who knows more about football tell me why Buckley is in the team he plays one pass then just stands there.
