Things have moved on, possession is all that matters don't you know? It's now the 'best league in the world'!!!!!

That *was* the January Window

The jury is out for me. I'm not convinced he has the bottle for week in, week out, English football. -

And Tronstad twice gifting them opportunities in the dying minutes. -
Jon Dahl Tomasson - Sweden coach
Wheelton Blue replied to Tom's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Hats off indeed. The game is all about winning. End of. I enjoy us winning games of football; the style of play, not so much. That matters not so much though, when I walk back up LBR after a win. -

We need to stop the rot of home defeats. A win is what we want, ideally with a clean sheat, but a draw wouldn't be the end of the world. 1-1 -

Girona are great to watch, full of passion. -
v Leeds Utd (h) - 9/12/23
Wheelton Blue replied to Chris Whittys Barber's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I disagree. Up until 18 months ago, our whole squad - from juniors through U23s through to the first team - played a completely different style of footlball. The fact that they've learnt to play tippy-tappy since Tomasson arrived, proves that they are adaptable to different styles to some degree of success. -

Similar John Robertson at Forest. What a player he was. -
v Leeds Utd (h) - 9/12/23
Wheelton Blue replied to Chris Whittys Barber's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
When we play well, it's nice to watch admittedly. When we don't play so well, I find the style frustrating to say the least, with the tippy tappying around the back and the continual 10 yard passing to nowhere. Tomasson is doing an amazing job though, all things considered, But he's not beyond criticism, and for me the biggest one is his insistence on playing the 'style' no matter what. Sometimes, for example when you're on an atrocious home run, you have to be a tad more pragmatic and look to grind out a draw or two. It's sh!t or bust with Tomasson. -
This was the first Premier League game I've seen this season. I lasted until half time; it was devoid of any excitement or entertainment, bar the comedy of tippy-tappy errors which led to the Wolves goal. An advert for 'The Best League In The World' it was not. On that evidence, Burnley may pick up a few points here and there, but on the whole they're punchless. Wolves weren't much better.

Sunderland sack Mowbray
Wheelton Blue replied to Tugayisgod's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Any ambitious club at our level or higher would have Tomasson on their wish list. I would not be surprised if there were murmurings of Sunderland being interested. -

Blackburn End: Waggott Out

Absolutely this in a nutshell. -
That's laughable. Whatever the reason is as to why we signed him on a 4 year deal, I'd love to know.

Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr....nope

Will Carter be back for this? -
None of this can be true. It's the 'best league in the world', after all....

Cloughie? -
Surely we could have got someone on a free - from the lower leagues, abroad, an out of contract - at least someone who isn't a crock or seemingly straight off Pleasington. As it stands, they're both a waste of time, as evidenced by Tomasson's refusal to play them.
-
Up until now at least, both Ennis and Telalovic have been an utter waste of time, money and effort. We needed players who could slot straight in. We got the opposite.
