Disregard all the others I’d like to know your view on Whitehall. It doesn’t matter the ability of the other boys from his intake. What matters is how good the golden boy is. The boy has had bad luck with injuries, I want to see if he still the real deal.

From the limited time he got today he still looks the real deal. He needs regular game time to the end of the season and hopefully he can get a one year deal to see if he injury nightmare is over. He would certainly give the first team some different options. Keep going Issac.

Summer was a glass of sasparella from Walsh’s stall and chatting to Peter and his mum. Going even further back when it was an open air market my mum used to buy me a hot Vimto when the weather was bad. There’s still nothing better on a cold wet day than a hot vimto.

If the youngsters are going to move up through the u18’s u21’s and get to the first team squad they have to learn from the toughest games. What’s better for their development? Beating teams 5 or 6 nil, or taking a beating? The players that get disheartened are maybe not the ones who’ll make it to the first team. I’m sure the youth coaches are working with the youngsters to improve them. Bear in mind that as you say they will be younger than the opposition so the key is to keep them motivated, and I’m sure improvements will come as the season progresses.

I remember going to Ewood in the 60’s with my dad and mum. The old man being brought up on teams from the 50’s thought he was not Rovers quality. He could block balls through and kick the opposing forwards. But he was never going to get the Rovers back into the top division. Sorry John to hear your passing but not a Rovers great.

I don’t mind him being one footed. All I want is for him to fucking shoot when he has the opportunity. He doesn’t have the balls to take responsibility.

I watch u21’s at home when they don’t clash with the first team. In my opinion he’s a long way off being ready for a senior debut. He’s too slow and his distribution is not good enough.

If she’s taking you shopping on Saturday, surely she should go with you to Stockport tonight. Quid pro quo! If not tell her to catch the train to Reebok.👍

So you didn’t discover her love of the taste of of freshly prepared cheese desert!!!

You’ve spent took much time in the south.

Cadbury chocolate shit since the yanks took it over. I’d sooner have Aldi or Lidle chocolate. Has anyone had Hersey crap. I wouldn’t feed it to a six fingered cousin

He’s not that tall, but he’s thick set. Seen him when he’s played for the u21’s and he’s very strong. He really needs regular game time, perhaps a loan until January and then review his progress.

Yes it is, they are making direct comparisons between women’s football and men’s. Men are good, women are bad. if we don’t support them interest will fall off and we can go back to clubs only catering for “real football” played by men. Comparisons between the two games only breeds ridicule. Do these posters compare men and women in other sports, tennis, swimming, athletics? Women’s football is about 22 women competing and the excitement and drama is still there.

The posters should read through the misogynistic comments they’ve wrote. I have two young granddaughters that I will encourage to take up sport. Just because some sports have been the preserve of men doesn’t mean that watching and encouraging women to play them isn’t enjoyable. Women aren’t as fast as men so athletics/tennis should be just male. They can’t swim as fast so why should they learn to swim? There are some really pathetic comments on this thread.

Was it the big end sticking out of his pocket?

Scott is a very good CB, what he lacks at the moment is the correct decision making. For the second goal he could have done better to have knocked the ball out for a throw-in and then secondly continued to push their forward away from goal instead of bringing him down. It’s not down to his ability which is great it’s his mental/concentration approach to the game that he needs to improve. I’m sure he’ll make it.

What are your medals Jimbob?

That’s your view, what experience of true world class football do you have? How many league titles/FA Cups/European Cups have you won? He’s forgotten more than we’ve known about how to be a great footballer. Bellingham is an exceptional talent, but what Souness is saying is one swallow doesn’t make a summer. He has to maintain his form over the long term.

It’s difficult to judge two players from different eras. What I would say in Sir Rogers defence is; He didn’t get the chance to play in the top league until the end of his career. He must be a similar height to Raya and therefore as size goes was good enough to be at the top league. He was several generations before other goalies, as he enjoyed being a sweeper keeper. i loved big Brad, but there will always be a place in my heart for our Roger.

Maggot will stay and fill his pockets foras long as he can. I just wish Andrew Cole could tell the Venkeys what a treacherous sneaky snake he is.

LeftWinger was writing about Bellingham at Birmingham!

Think you’re being a bit harsh there rigger. Hyam and Carter had their worst game. Hyam took out Pickering on the second half and their loss of control and poor passing was evident all through the game. The whole team are not mentally strong enough. The young players will learn from this experience.

Bloody predictive texting! Of course it was Mick Heaton. It’s just done it again. I’ve just had to go back and change it. Also used to see Sir Roger Jones down Quebec Road.

I’m an awfully lot older than you, and in my time I’ve come across players that actually lived in Blackburn. Kit Napier played darts in the Corporation on Revidge with my old man. I bought football boots from Mick Heston. They never spoke of what happened on the training ground or the other players attitudes. Given today’s social media I just don’t believe any player would make such comments.

Players that are pissed off because they are jealous of the lad’s ability. Rebekah Vardy tells a good story!
