The lad who came on for him, scored their equalizer. Brereton has still not scored a single goal.

As Arbitro pointed out on the match day thread, a lot of the refs have a huge ego and that was my biggest concern. I don’t know whether he held his hand up or not to help to get this overturned, but thankfully it was and it makes the defence a good deal stronger on Friday.

Like others have already posted, he was a real super fan. I didn’t know him personally, but certainly knew who he was and saw him on many occasions up and down the country watching Rovers. The thing I remember him most for, is being in the opening credits on match of the day with his Rovers flat cap on. Rovers were a huge part of his life and something definitely needs to be done on Friday to mark his passing. If the club don’t do anything official, then the fans certainly need to. Maybe a big picture of him with that flat cap on, displayed on the big screen before the match or a rendition of there’s only one Alan Birkbeck sang on 18 and 75 minutes. A mention by the sky commentary team too, would be fitting. Fans like him are once in a lifetime. RIP Birdy.

Is that an R or a C in the fifty to last work of your post?

Two months of costs.

I would be surprised if he ever gets back to the level he did, when he hit the 24 for us. His level is championship, so La Liga was always a step too far. If he ends up in the prem he won’t cut it. He may score a few at somewhere like WBA but think even double figures will be difficult.

That’s the way to go, if you are in the UK.

It’s the people (myself included) who have paid for the games on Rovers TV. Looks like it won’t be available on Friday.

I would imagine anyone who has played or managed at a decent level who vote against that being a red. In real time, I didn't think it was and now that I have seen a fee replays, it definitely wasn't. Is the ref allowed to hold his hands up and admit it was a mistake, to help the situation?

I got an invite to the annual premature ejaculation society dinner dance and I called the venue beforehand to check the dress code. I was told to just come in my pants. 🙂

I think it’s ever in the history of the top flight too.

We beat them twice at their place last season.

Arsenal away next.

The first team in premier league history to lose their first six home league games. To make matters worse, they stay off the bottom on goal difference, after Sheffield United with with a late pen. Two Kompany threes a crowd of defeats.

It’s ironic really, as even another 10,000 season tickets, at the current price, would not make a difference. Venkys presided over the collapse and fall from the premier league in 18 months, so how anyone can blame anyone but them, is a mystery.

Given what’s been posted in the accounts year on year, about the owners needing to plug the gap, perhaps a proper announcement now needs to be made, if they can’t fund us any more. Assuming they can’t put anything at all in, then they need to sell, as it then means whoever comes in only needs to put £1 in to make them a better option.

Chiclana are a none league team, who play on the costa del sol, not far from Malaga. Ben failed to score yet again, despite playing for the full 90 minutes. Looks like his confidence is shot and the fans are on his back. It’s been a bad move for him and one he may live to regret. https://www.mundodeportivo.com/futbol/copa-del-rey/20231102/1002098687/0-5-villarreal-pasa-encima-modesto-chiclana.html?facet=amp

Cheers and fair play to him.

This does become more annoying the more things like this are said. Roll up, roll up, get your tickets for Carrow Road at £x per pop. Pay that lovely travel cost and spend half of your Sunday traveling up and down the UK roads. Make sure you set the alarm early for the 12.00pm kick off. Watch the lads lose, but do so in style. Receive the plaudits of the opposing manager and the Sky sports team and add a few thousand to their value. We are Blackburn Rovers 2023 Farte y laborious!!!

Genuine question, as I have not followed him.

Does Rothwell feature at all, in fact, is he still there?

He has done this a few times now and without knowing what goes on behind the scenes, perhaps it is something he needs to do, to retain his sanity. I know posters on here have said it out of frustration and anger, but if there is no real desire to get into the premier league, perhaps he now sees the job as a road to nowhere. He is probably telling the fans what most of us already know and this it we are owned and run by a load of chancers. As we saw this morning, with the snapshots form the BBC website, some fans still see Venky's as badly advised and insist that they are good owners. I applaud JDT for putting the message out there, that this is simply not the case.

almost certainly a message that to show that he is succeeding with the project.

Right now, I agree, but give it 12 - 18 months and I think you will see him blossom. Let's hope so anyway.
