0 wins in 5. The mid season death spiral takes the wheels off our season once again.

Same shit different season. There’s never any reason to believe things will ever be different under those cretins.

Luis, why don’t you swap Miami and chilling with your best pal Messi for a few months in Blackburn?

1-1 haha! Get in!

FFS another late winner against us. Will we ever get one ourselves?!

Indeed, DE. We’ve all seen this script before. I was hoping that perhaps this time it would be different but I just don’t see the evidence to believe otherwise. Winless in 3 quite easily becomes winless in 13 under this lot.

Has the feels of the wheels coming off - 2 losses in three without a win either. Only Leeds and that lot to come…

Wheels well and truly off after today. Feels like they’ve done us on Boxing Day a couple times at least over recent years:

I said the other day I wouldn’t start believing until we could claim points after falling behind. I also won’t start believing until we can start winning points at the death in matches either. It’s ALWAYS the opposition.

He did bag loads of assists at Boro too.

This is where I’d be going with any budget too. Short-term yes but who cares if it gets us to the promised land.

One for the stattos; when did we last win seven in a row?

Another great piece from Rich. "There feels a lack of an out-ball to often, doubts about how will they fare against teams coming to Ewood and sitting deep, and an ability to chase a game should they fall behind?" The part in bold stood out to me as I was thinking about it the other night - sooner or later we will fall behind. How will this new look Rovers team react? How motivating it would feel should we claw ourselves back into the match, and dare I say it, even win. I reckon that would have even the most pessimistic of fans (like me) dreaming after years of the "we may as well all head home" feeling once we go behind.

Not posted for some time due to being caught up in family stuff, but just to say hats off to Eustace - I've given him some stick but he is getting so much right at the club at the minute. IMO exemplified at the weekend when he made Tronstad captain; it would have been so easy to give it to Hyam but he's clearly spotted that Dom is performing exceptionally without the burden of captaincy. Little things like that, the team spirit and belief he's instilled (just look at the final whistle) tells me we have a good one. A couple of smart January signings (yes I know), is the least this guy deserves.

Love a good party...just not a promotion one.

A shambles calling it off that late for their travelling fans.

Funnily enough, I bet Rudy’s targets cost a fair bit less than what Park has been putting forward.

As I suspected. All hail King Rudy.

"Head of recruitment" downgraded to "Chief Scout", possibly...or is that a vacancy that's been ongoing for some time? https://www.linkedin.com/posts/rudygestede_job-vacancies-activity-7265365003459874817-hfOc?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop

Officially gone X2

As above, I don’t think we’ll find out until the Wharton/Szmodics instalments dry up. Summer perhaps? Unless Carter has a stormer of a second half to the season and goes for decent money then the never ending journey continues.

Good luck getting takers for 9/10s of this lot!

Running out of sellable assets would seem to be our only hope right now of being rid of them. What a hope to have!

Great update, thanks. So in summary, they clearly do not want to pay these associated bonds. If this stance does not / cannot change, then we will reach a crossroads sooner or later with no starlets left to sell.

Yep. There is nobody else who would fetch much more than a million quid. I’d put good money on Cantwell having a v low release clause and nobody’s taking a punt (quite yet anyway). (Hopefully) slightly squeaky bum time in Pune.
