Middlesborough away Sat 8th Dec
G Somerset Rover replied to Scratch Andy's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Corry Evans never bleddy scores for us. You feel we’ll need a second here as they’re only ever one set piece away from getting level. -
Middlesborough away Sat 8th Dec
G Somerset Rover replied to Scratch Andy's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Get in! Can see the ref trying to even this out given they've got so long to go with ten men. Do NOT do anything silly boys. Williams (on a yellow), Smallwood, Evans I am looking at you. -
Middlesborough away Sat 8th Dec
G Somerset Rover replied to Scratch Andy's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Been moaning for weeks about the lack of consistency in the selection so for once you won’t hear any moans from me pre match. COYB - lets take a point away at least. -
JANUARY TRANSFER WINDOW
G Somerset Rover replied to adz4d2's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Wickham seems a realistic shout, you’d like to think we’d be in for him if he were available. Ings is probably the most ambitious name I’ve seen on here - he’s the Saints tailisman (and record signing?!) and I doubt we could afford one of Maupay or Adam’s feet let alone both. -
Middlesborough away Sat 8th Dec
G Somerset Rover replied to Scratch Andy's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Like others am concerned by their style of play. Set piece experts - utilising their big buggers to cause maximum mayhem in our box. Which really ain’t our style. Not really sure what TM does to counter this as we have to be the smallest side in the league. Perhaps Chris Samba fancies dusting off his boots for a one off match?! -
JANUARY TRANSFER WINDOW

You can’t have read my post then pal where I said about them contributing the majority towards them. As I said, ambitious name but one nonetheless. -
JANUARY TRANSFER WINDOW
G Somerset Rover replied to adz4d2's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I’m not usually one for the ambitious targets, but I could see Leighton Baines going out on loan in January given Digne has taken over as Everton’s first choice LB. Could be worth throwing our hat in the ring - would imagine there would be a fair few clubs in for him mind and Everton would need to pay the majority of his no doubt big wage. 33 but even if he just played with his right foot would still be a huge upgrade on Del & Rodney! -
ROVERS v Sheff Wed
G Somerset Rover replied to blueboy3333's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Will hold my hands up I didn’t see this coming after the past two matches and after seeing our lineup pre match. Fantastic to see Dack and Graham back on song - crucial they fired again and they have. Big win. -
ROVERS v Sheff Wed
G Somerset Rover replied to blueboy3333's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Yep gotta feel for the fans who’ve paid their hard earned today. Even if we win it will be an extremely insipid affair with no pace or creativity in the side. -
ROVERS v Sheff Wed
G Somerset Rover replied to blueboy3333's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
JHC I knew his lineup would seriously piss me off, and there it is. Tell me Tony, aside from having zero creativity and zero pace, how in Gods name has Derrick Williams kept his place? I think I’ll stick with my uninspiring 1-0 defeat prediction. Where the heck is the creativity coming from? -
ROVERS v Sheff Wed
G Somerset Rover replied to blueboy3333's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Confident how this one will play out; 0-0 drab first half Weds take the lead midway through the second, we huff and puff but can’t force the equaliser. -
ROVERS v Sheff Wed
G Somerset Rover replied to blueboy3333's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Has Mercer given his prediction yet? If he’s been off colour and predicted a defeat we can all pop the bubbly early to toast 3 points. -
ROVERS v Sheff Wed
G Somerset Rover replied to blueboy3333's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Be nice to score a first half goal tomorrow wouldn’t it?! -
Wigan V ROVERS 28/11/18
G Somerset Rover replied to blueboy3333's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
He’s looked like a drunken Sunday league player (at best) for the past two matches! -
Wigan V ROVERS 28/11/18
G Somerset Rover replied to blueboy3333's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Even if we were rock bottom, 15 points adrift they wouldn’t bother with a vote of confidence speech. Like guessing the weather with this lot. -
Wigan V ROVERS 28/11/18
G Somerset Rover replied to blueboy3333's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Williams ‘attempt’ really does get worse every time you watch it. Inexcusable. Simply cannot be in the side on Saturday - would send completely the wrong message that dipping your toe in, doing a pirouette and barely jogging back is acceptable. -
Wigan V ROVERS 28/11/18
G Somerset Rover replied to blueboy3333's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I hope Mowbray is more pumped up with the lads than his last couple of pressers. Sounds like a man on death row on the latest one from the official twitter account. -

You’ve said this a couple times. Can you elaborate? Doesn’t make any sense. -
Wigan V ROVERS 28/11/18
G Somerset Rover replied to blueboy3333's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Agreed but none of them have shown an iota of leadership nous in the past 2 matches. Agree with others too that Mowbray doesn’t help. He’s too much of a forlorn figure on the touchline for me. I’m not asking for a gorilla like Cooke but it’d be good to see some passion rubbing off on the players as the match progresses. -
Wigan V ROVERS 28/11/18
G Somerset Rover replied to blueboy3333's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Yep - the response from our boys every time they scored was galling. No shouting at one another, no grabbing the ball. Just heads down feeling sorry for themselves. Would appear we lack some serious leadership on the pitch. -
I read a stat last night that weve used 10 different back line variations in 19 matches. Add in the chopping and changing of our ‘front wide men’, Graham and the false 9’s, and it’s little bloody wonder we can’t put any consistency together. He’s going to obviously shuffle the pack again this weekend, and rightly so to an extent, but we cannot keep making 3-5 changes every week - no successful Championship side does it, so we’re not going to buck that trend anytime soon.

Yep. No mention of the false 9 masterclass at the start of the second half again of the failure to get them fired up after Saturdays debacle. -

Looking forward to Mercer’s scathing review in this match thread before predicting we’ll thump Sheff Weds on Sat in that one. -

If Williams gets more than a 1 in the LET then it needs shutting down! -
Bloody concerning. Is he losing the plot? Friction with India? Too pally with the lads? Something ain’t right. When you don’t get a ‘promised reaction’ questions need to be asked, regardless of who the manager is.
