  1. You can sack him yes. It’s very difficult to back him TBH. It won’t make any difference though. The fundamentals at the club give his replacement virtually no chance of success. He wouldn’t get backed properly, he wouldn’t be allowed to have much, if any say on sales or incomings. The people above are a bunch of chancers only in it for themselves. Rovers aren’t just one fix away from succeeding in any way. In all my time supporting the club, in seasons where we struggle there was always some hope. Maybe key players were out, maybe there were easier fixtures ahead. Or maybe a decent signing in the next window would have an effect. I don’t feel this way ATM. People saying today we’re in trouble. We’ve been in trouble since this crew turned up.
  2. No. It was to hit the net without it bouncing. That was our captain.
  3. Wonder what he thinks of this.
  4. 15 years and never finished in the playoffs. Nobody at Ewood park with authority to make decisions to change things. Not had a CEO for a long time. Nobody seems to have anything idea of what’s the short term or long term aims are. We’re the equivalent of tumbleweed blowing across the desert. F… knows where we’re going.
  5. Not exactly true. When water flows over other surfaces, toss molecules blow become attached to them. That means the flow from the upper surface will be aided. Strewth, Blackburn Rovers fans and fluid mechanics 😀 https://home.zcu.cz/~kovarikp/MT/freestudy/FLUID_MECHANICS_D203/FLUID_MECHANICS_D203.pdf
  6. The high tech water removal system.
  7. I said over a month ago the players aren’t playing for Slot.
  8. 40+ in front now with 4 wickets left. 5 dropped catches. I fear played two, lost two and series already gone. Not good enough from England against a pretty ordinary Aussie team.
  9. and to consistently win games IS entertaining.
  10. It’s obvious what brings fans in. Winning games.
  11. In 2010 rovers were half way up the Premier League and gates averaged around 25000. Venkys came in, sacked the manager, sold the entire squad and announced that they could prosper in the PL with £5m/year cash input plus loans and Academy lads. 15 years later they’re asking “where are the fans”. I guess they really don’t know because they’re still pursuing the same strategy.
  12. Lack of effort? Nah, not really. More like a lack of quality throughout the team or probably squad. Quality players bring professionalism with them and would never be called out for not trying. Top players have bad days. This wasn’t a case of a few players having a bad day. I think this is as good as they are.
  13. I suggest a change in tactics. When anyone in either team finds the ball somehow at their feet, they try to kick it towards someone else who’s wearing the same kit.
  14. Morishita looks like a 5 year old lad who’s wandered onto the pitch.
  15. Yeah, I noted that right footed pass out to the left flank. Perfectly weighted.
  16. It’s why no one can get close to him. It’s not two touch football with Adam, it’s one touch. His vision and technique is second to none.
  17. Saw it a month ago. Somethings not right. They certainly aren’t playing for him.
  18. That was as bad as I remember seeing Liverpool play for a long time. It said to me from just a couple of minutes in that they weren’t playing for Slot. He must be at risk.
  19. We were dominated in the air, with ease in both boxes. Why we continued to put high crosses in I really have no idea. Elsewhere there was a lot of huff and Puff in midfield in the second half but it was totally ineffectual stuff. Up front? Do me a favour. There’s nothing there, absolutely nothing. No pace, no power or strength and nowhere near enough ability. Derby deservedly won the game and they had to do very little to win it. The powers that be should understand that this situation has come about principally because of their strategies over many years. I doubt any of them have considered that possibility.
  20. When a manager starts telling fans things that are clearly not true, it’s a sure sign that he’s feeling the pressure, that the job is getting away from him. It almost inevitably ends one way. Here at Ewood it could take a tad longer.
  21. Support 2 clubs? Never. I could never do that. Venkys killed it for me and all the guys I travelled with from Leyland. Under their tenure, long hard supporting fans fell away one by one over the last ten years or so. It finished up where I was driving to Ewood and walking down to Ewood to night matches in the dark, in the rain, on my own. I was in the riverside on the ground at one game where the stewards were wading into the D.E. To tackle demonstrating Rovers fans. That was at the club that I loved. I think the love ended there. I started to fall away at that point. I didn’t renew my season ticket and never heard a thing from Rovers. My attendance is limited now but I still watch every game I can on TV, follow everything in the media and “enjoy” the discussions on here. However the anger I have towards the owners currently dominates my feelings. I would love them to leave because we will never recover while they’re still here. Unfortunately the future post Venkys cannot be guaranteed either.
  22. I think this is the worst squad rovers have had in my 60+ years of supporting rovers. Worst thing is there’s no one in the squad or at the club who can turn this around.
  23. and he didn’t manage to win one header. He’s useless.
  24. When fans like you Matty feel this way it’s pretty grim. Decent owners really would care but ours won’t.
