Certainly on thin ice with the fans. Wouldn’t be surprised to start hearing boos at Ewood. Already happened against PNE

Thoughts: We have been shocking today and in fairness deserve fuck all. JRC has had another good game Dack only one creating atuff so obviously first to be hooked Morton has been poor and we are shit in midfield Hirst need getting rid of in Jan JDT certainly on thin ice

I heard Hedges shouting at the bench for some electrolyte gel for Philips. Philips came over for that and a bottle of something shortly after so I’m guessing maybe he was low on energy? Came off about 5 mins later

Was always gonna be a tough ask tonight, lots of games in a short space coming up so like others said, can’t be annoyed at the team he put out. Imagine if Diaz or Dack started and got injured, you’d all be slating him. S.Wharton is in a poor run of form yes but I don’t understand why everyone is being so harsh, homegrown lad who was unreal last year. Form has dipped yes and everyone’s getting on his back. Get behind ffs!

In fairness having been there, it was more of a clear foul than the foul not given against Saka for France’s first goal in the World Cup 😂😂

As much as we’ve criticised some of the recruitment. Must say Dom Hyam was a brilliant piece of recruitment. None of us saw it coming but how good has he slotted in? Really like him with the armband too. Was at Blackpool game away for his debut and he looked like he’d worn a Rovers shirt for years. Brilliant

Kaminski best keeper we’ve had for a long long time

Get in

Looked pretty poor since the subs

Didn’t want Dack to go off but thought he was a little tired looking after last attack. Gotta be a nailed on starter now. He presses more than most of the team in fairness

And then that back heel to Buckley that took 2/3 Norwich players out the game

I know I bang the Dack drum but he is certainly not finished. He’s one of our best players still. Quality passing, one touch passing and link up play

Good pressing when they passing around at the back

Although that being said. It was a decent set piece move

So fluky 😂😂

Get in!!

I agree, in fairness surely the players aren’t stupid enough to think that playing tennis across our 18 yards box is a good idea. They’re probably pissed offthey keep getting told to do it. I think I’d need a holiday if I was forced to do that

I was just thinking, If anyone had anything about them yesterday after Barnes’ shithousery in the first half, they would have left one on him in the second half. He genuinely hates us (saw an interview saying he is so happy because he scored against the bastards) that showed yesterday in his play, I can’t help but admire that because once the ref let him get away once he knew he’d carry on getting away with it. Didn’t see anyone with that desire and hatred for Burnley yesterday from us

Sorry but I’m still not over yesterday. I’ve watched plenty of away games this season: Sheff utd, Luton, Wigan, Cardiff etc and we’ve done the same fucking thing, pass across our own box while under pressure, make mistakes and then concede. We do this slow fucking boring build up play which gets to midfield and then it comes straight back every time!! There’s NO press whatsoever. Every away game I watch I think to myself ‘surely we’ll no do that again this week’ (we went direct against boro and look what happened, we actually fucking won) anyways, convinced myself today we would be more direct (knowing they are vulnerable that way) we’d press and be in their faces, and be up for the game. What the fuck was I thinking, only a lunatic would expect JDT to change the way we play away from home for the biggest game of the season after getting slapped away from home repeatedly when playing that way. What an idiot I am. Yes we’ve won some good games and played well and the passing out from the back works at Ewood (so far, with hairy moments still) but what are we doing still doing it every away game when we’ve been beaten by shit teams like Wigan and Cardiff who’ve been really struggling when we’ve played them. I could forgive JDT for us taking the game to them and us getting pumped 3-0 because we had a fucking go but Jesus Christ, we set up like we were playing Man City away. Lastly I’ll say we need someone who can keep the ball in midfield with their back to goal, can buy a foul of can hold it up because it’s like a game of tennis when it comes out for the back at snails pace. Good job we have a player who can hold it up sat on the bench tho, who also while am at it (allegedly) can’t do the press that JDT wants, because that press has been evident time and time again. Can get over all the defeats this season but that set up from the team he put out, tactics and lack of fight and desire, also lack of changing things when we went one down and carried on passing around the back till we twice found a claret and blue shirt is unforgivable. If it was every going to change it would have been yesterday so I think we’ll carry on getting beat away from home passing it around like dickheads for a while to come. Jury 100% still out for me on JDT especially with his lack of giving a fuck about that performance and swerving questions in the interview. He’s not arsed what yesterday meant to us and he’s proven it

At least when we are being pressed change it and play over the top

Also for me, Pickering has been decent for a while as well and might I add, BBD plays better when he links up with Pickering down the left!

We seriously need to sort out this going behind and not managing to do anything after problem. It’s getting silly now. when we go a goal down we carry on fannying around it’s embarrassing

I hate to say this but I’d love someone upfront like Ashley Barnes. Absolute shithouse, must be a nightmare to play against. Passionate

Agreed. We set up like we were playing Man City away or something. Defend defend defend. why not take the game to them. We were never gonna soak up 90 mins or pressure. What a joke

Yeah I get that but our squad is capable of a lot better quality than that. Like others said, better to lose when we put a shift in and take the game to them than do what we’ve done today fannying about. We had the quality with the right game plan to do something today. This was pathetic and pathetic tactics. Same as ever fucking away game. Passing around the edge of our box
