We had that image so often in the last 5 years. -

Polite applause if he claps us. A bit like the oppo goalkeeper. Otherwise, meh. -
v Middlesbrough (a) - 15/10/22
Mike E replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Imo, 3 at the back with wing backs is our way forward, as it's given us our best performances this season. How it is supported by midfield and forwards should be what we vary, but the defence should remain imo. Incidentally, 3 at the back is what Mowbray kept trying but could never get right, so I do actually view this as a positive point for JDT. -
RIP Hagrid 😞

Jon Dahl Tomasson - Officially No Longer Our Head Coach
Mike E replied to Tom's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
WLWLWL etc isn't bad form. It's better than average form as it includes no draws and likely places us 8th-10th. That with a squad that seemed to fall through a trapdoor February onwards. -
Jonny Stead had my favourite 6 months of any Rovers player ever. His impact undoubtedly saved us from relegation in Souey's final full season. There first player that demonstrated to me the difference between class and form, but I'll be forever grateful for his contribution 🙂

Looking to expand our collection after playing Ticket to Ride. Secret Hitler looks good 😅

I justified it by saying he was passing to where his teammates SHOULD have been 😅

Transfer Window - COMPLETE. Where’s Gregg?
Mike E replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I'm we've become a wall of silence. Feels more professional somehow. -
Anyone play board games regularly?

I have my reservations about the owners, as we all have, BUT I believe the numbers surrounding FFP do show that Mowbray was given every penny that Venkys could allow him to spend. It's also true that in the last two windows, money was there going unspent, and that's from Mowbray's own mouth. He's a man full of excuses when it doesn't go his way. I have no issue with his struggling to push on. All managers hit that point eventually but his retconning guff is just annoying.

Transfer Window - COMPLETE. Where’s Gregg?
Mike E replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Finally listened to the GB interviews and really enjoyed them. Taking at face value that they basically 'started afresh' from his appointment, then we've had a very reasonable transfer window. He said something about it being two parts of his remit out of 6, and now the other 4 need attention until the next window. Wonder what they are? -
Weird feelings of football thread

Thought that MGP and John O'Shea were an item once. -

Benfica have always been a top tier Champions League team -
I'm sure he did score, but only in pre-season

Completely agreed. I think it will benefit from the written story being complete (albeit very brief), and therefore they can only add meat onto GRRM'S written skeleton. Enjoyed it immensely so far, although I expect I'll find the cast changes a bit jarring, just as I did/do with The Crown.

R.I.P. QUEEN ELIZABETH
Mike E replied to SIMON GARNERS 194's topic in I Can't Believe It's Not Football
While I generally agree, Morrisons haven't silenced the tills. They've turned off music in store, which had previously disguised the din of the tills. No music highlights how shrill their tills are, so they've turned them down. -
Jon Dahl Tomasson - Officially No Longer Our Head Coach
Mike E replied to Tom's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Our overall record is win-loss-win-loss, which is 69pts over a season, probably roughly 8th place? -
v Watford (h) - 13/9/22 (possibly)…
Mike E replied to rigger's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I honestly didn't notice Carter at all tonight, and I mean that as a fantastic compliment. -

v Wigan Athletic (a) 11/10/2022
Mike E replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I don't mind what decision they come to. However I believe black armbands, a rendition of the new national anthem, and a minute's applause would be adequate. -

I'm at a loss as to what to think. We've lost one of the most remarkable women in history.- 45 replies

I work with him now! Lovely bloke, made much of his living running academies in lower leagues, before assisting Dunny. Decided football wages are too unreliable (coaches get sacked with a manager usually).

I married a Dingle. She's the best person in the world. I don't even mind if Little E decides ro support them as long he doesn't support Manchester fucking United.
