G Somerset Rover

Delighted and pleasantly surprised with both the performance and win last night. I really want to try to be more positive but it’s just so frustrating seeing us play like that with some fantastic individual performances knowing that the club will just sabotage any progression at the first opportunity. Take Tronstad for example: phenomenal last night. Yet seemingly the club are just content for him to leave for free in the summer. Cantwell too, no doubt off. Under any normal ownership there would be many reasons for optimism.

Looks a bit like men’s vs u18s at the moment.

Pickering has never let us down at LCB before to my memory. And has great experience at this level - something we sorely lack.

Why on earth Pickering isn’t at LCB (again) can only be for one of two reasons: he’s pissed off Pasha & Rudy (Team Eustace) or he’s over the wage threshold. Either way it’s a ridiculous decision.

Ismael’s PR excuses for not bringing in another centre half are very insulting to the fans who have half a brain.

Harry Pickering out for similar reasons I’d wager (we’ll find out on that one tomorrow).

That's Cantwell off, as many of us suspected. As for Carter, f*ck me. We've finally found a player who surpasses Grella as an all timer sicknote. But final mention to the masterminds that are Venkys, Pasha and Rudy. The decision to sell Hyam on the final day of the window without bringing in a replacement. I'm just speechless.

I think it was Glen who mentioned in the summer that they were looking to get rid of him due to his high wages. Then came the captaincy which surprised everyone. But here we are. If he’s still ‘injured’ tomorrow then I think we all know he won’t play again before being shipped off in January. Cantwell for Henriksson. Jesus wept.

All the evidence points to there being two consistent goals across their God-awful rein: cut costs and line the pockets of 'agents'.

I’ve long thought our best bet of ridding ourselves of this lot is to have a sustained campaign against Suhail. Whenever the spotlight has been on him he’s absolutely detested it. I’m guessing it’s come down to a lack of funding from the few Rovers’ brave enough to fight the cause, but unless it’s consistent and persistent, it’s not going to be enough.

The surname is wrong - it’s Samet Wecantafford.

Rochina looked like the penny had finally dropped and he'd be a world beater on the first day of the season back in 2013(?) - he then dislocated his shoulder in the same match and just never seemed to really kick on. One of those who will surely look back on his career and think he could have got way more out of it - like Dunn has admitted about himself. Rochina's natural ability was unreal.

And yet some do not believe that particular 'agents' still have their noses firmly in the Venky's trough.

There's typically never any smoke without fire under Venky's rein, so it adds up that he barely kicks a ball for us now despite being in favour under much better managers. He may not be the best LB in the league but he's dependable. And who would you prefer at LCB, Pickering or Ryan Hedges?! Yet again, penny pinching over what is best for Blackburn Rovers football club.

I’d wager after the the upcoming international break it’ll be ‘he’ll be ready for the start of the year.’
