I've heard we are bit Short at the back, but that the Current situation is under review

Sounds a bit too Catch 22 for my liking. Bell has clearly struggled to progress following his arrival, and is consistently wasteful in possession and passes backwards or sideways when play is screaming out for a run to the by line and cross. For that reason I think it is time for him to be moved on and a replacement found. If Wharton or Carter can step up, now is the time to bring them in. If not, then we have a problem that can only be solved by more recruitment.

And Adam Shearer, Tom Flowers, Simeon Garner, Gerald LeSaux, Derek Batty, Joden Rhodes, Twoguy Kerismoglu ...the list is endless

Oh, perlease wake me up - before you go go. Perhaps we will sign someone with connections to West Ham?

Got it,thanks! Great cross for Arna's goal

How does the iFollow thing work? Is it a youtube link, as Hoochie Bloochie blokey said?

What is the point of the chicken chokers hanging around for another season of underwhelming disappointment, gradually starving the club of the resources it needs in order to achieve any prospect of advancement? It doesn't make sense.

What Frazer Cropper has achieved in only 8 years with TW has been great for Blackburn, and the Griffin Park area. As a mad keen Rugby Union fan (Exeter Chiefs box holder) , he might be less inclined to tarnish his company's brand by association with the chicken chokers, than keen to shore up our own dwindling reputation. Might be worth an approach to the new CEO Marcus Saxton, but I guess our forward thinking and dynamic commercial sept may have already made contact.... tumbleweed.

Sad news indeed. I always used to laugh at his one-footedness, as he went round in endless circles in the centre of the pitch. Wasn't it Meccy who scored that unbelievable (own?) goal from half way one rainy evening at Ewood - I could swear I have a memory of being in the old Nuttal Street stand with my Dad, with the rain being driven in wild sheets from the Blackburn End to Darwen end, and watching in disbelief as Meccy hit the ball into the net. (Maybe I dreamed this!?) Anyway, a top bloke, always a Rover and another who would put many of today's so called 'professional footballers' to shame with his commitment to the club. Legend. RIP Meccy.

Yes, the trajectory still feels somewhat downwards, to be fair. At least in the old 3rd Division, when we started our annual battles against promotion, there was something about the club that made me look forward to each new season. Now it is a vague hope that there may be some change that keeps me going, rather than any real belief that something might actually happen...

Lol

Yes, just like Bobby Charlton and Alan Shearer said..;)

Mind you, it's not like there's anyone else busting a gut to lead the line and score, is it?

Well, at least we know that if Luton lob anything towards our goal there is a 42% chance it will go in if Walton is between the sticks. Maybe we will see Gamst goal style of play, maybe it will be another horror story. All we can know in advance is that for us it is a dead rubber, but for Luton it is a 6 pointer potential lifeline for staying in the division. Personally I don't care who drops, or whether we send Luton down or not, just as long as the Rovers play to win.

Gallagher!

Gallagher to the rescue..?

Buckley and Davenport coming on. Bloody training game mentality!

3-3 joke!

3-2

Get in Rothwell!

Isn't it frustrating to see the team playing football, when it doesn't really matter any more this season.

I don't remember Waddington alongside the other 3 stalwarts of our annual battle against promotion from the 3rd division, but I am happy to be corrected - I thought Graham Hawkins was the other big man at the back, before Glen Keeley arrived..

Too much, too little, too late...

Mercer out mercering himself alright! Shame!

Arna!!
