Just out of curiosity. Does anyone know how many actual shots have we've had on goal since V.I appointment?

5, I think

Not counting mishit crosses that ended up on target

Come on Val, pop another blue steel and stand motionless in the technical area - 204th time the charm

At least we signed him, who was it we didn't sign because he wore ripped jeans?  Am I mad in recalling it being Reece James?

On loan but yes, Mowbray didn't fancy him - rap music, tattoos and ripped jeans...

[davulsukur]

Ohashi has looked bright since he's been on tbf.

[Exiled_Rover]

I was desperate to sign their GK on loan in the summer - he's made two really good saves today.

Alas we stuck with Pears.

[Tom]

Fair play Yuki has given his all, probably the only player I’d give any credit to tonight

[Bohinen1983]

Objectively, why should we win this one? Squad's wank and chronically underinvested in- especially so when you consider the players sold in recent years.. 

Venkys out!  Venkys out! Venkys out!

Will the players applaud the crowd as usual after the game.

There's no one left to applaud.

[johnradfordsubbuteo2]

Thanks

BBC has 14 on target shots.

'Blackburn's a shithole, I want to go home'.

...from people from Middlesborough.

Anyway, absolutely dire again tonight.
The senior management haven't got a clue what to do, how to handle the situation and all they will do is close their eyes & ears.

Ismael has been an unmitigated disaster.

that sounds wildly exaggerated

[Torgeir]

JRC overstretched again for their first! Defensive liability...has to stay in position.

 

Batth unlucky. 

 

Poor first half.

 

Better second half but Boro happy to defend. With all the injuries to our squad this is our level... five straight defeats. Wagg, Suhail and Rudy can fuck off but not the lads and the team.

 

Oh, and I wouldn't have given Ribeiro a three-year deal. How many matches has he won for us? Him and Pickering are preparation for League One.

[SpaceBarSlam]

One of the bleakest nights I've experienced at Ewood. Came onto the ground with absolutely 0 expectations. That team is not playing for Ismael and I don't blame them with the absolute non-tactics he's got them playing.

Massive, massive credit to our fans tonight, for turning out when there were so many reasons not to and for being so vocal. The most vocal I've heard the Riverside for a very, very long time.

Fuck off hinchcliffe

Fuck off Hinchcliffe 

‘they were not a top 6 side’

They’ve got, what looks to be a tribute to a condom of a statue outside their ground.

But yeah, it’s like an argument over who’s the tallest dwarf, ref which is the bigger shithole tbh.

[roverandout]

According to chincliffe we should be happy with midtable 

[Torgeir]

At least we can hope this run of games has been a wake-up call to the men upstairs that this squad needs heavy investment come the summer. I will not bother to watch the transfer thread though as it is not good for my mental health.

 

[Ferrit]

Hot fucking garbage

It's the worst chant in football - anyone that sings it is a tosser.

Gotta be some sort of sit-in protest now surely

[Tugayisgod]

Rovers are shite and the worlds going to hell in a hand cart 😦

Pass the arsenic
