Tracking our (outbound) loan players 24/25
bluebruce replied to BRFC4EVA's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Wow, honestly, who makes these loan decisions? -
My guess is probably 2 out of those 4 will get renewed before the expiry. Dunno which, probably whichever is prepared to accept the shittest terms or has the least external interest. So probably the 2 who are in the worst form at the time.

'Cheaper'. We surely are the masters of false economy.

v Millwall (h) - Good Friday 18/4/2025, 3pm

Aye, he never scored more than 3 in a season (once, his first season). In fact I struggle to think of many CMs, especially those who are played a little deeper, who ever got 5 in a season for us, let alone 10 (no, the likes of Szmodics and Dack do not count as CMs). It's a really bizarre expectation. -

Why do you think it's reasonable to expect 5-10 goals from central midfield, let alone from DM? Travis doesn't do that either, his record is 2 goals in a season. But for some reason you're not giving him the same criticism. -

Are you expecting 5-10 goals from Travis next season? Both have scored 2 goals this season. I'm guessing you won't. You seem to have different expectations of Tronstad (and Hyam) to other players. -

Good, I hate them. Most despicable fans in the country. You only have to spend a bit of time on their highly racist, bigoted messageboard to see that. -

If there's anything predictable about Rovers, it's that we were going to hit form as soon as there was nothing left to play for. -

Hardly had a sniff? He was 17 that season and had played 8 Championship games, and 14 games in total. At CB, too, where you normally have to wait a bit longer. How much sniffing should he have been doing?
-
I have less time for Finneran though. At least Phillips signed a deal to allow us a modest sum. Finneran shat on the club that built him.

I think people should keep in mind he hasn't said 'I'm good enough to play in the Premiership now, as a regular.' He has said his ambition is to eventually play at the top level, which is a good ambition to have. Also remember he's only 23 and we have seen other, older players improve rapidly.

Thought it was harsh, especially for a second yellow personally. We've had much worse ones against us not given. -
2025 Summer Transfer Thread. 😂
bluebruce replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Well Pasha fucking lied, didn't he, shock horror. Gueye - 1.5 Ohashi - rumoured to be about 200k Kargbo - 800k Cantwell - 500k Toth - 800k 3.8 million. And that's ignoring that Wahlstedt for Toth was practically a swap as they moved for the same fees and we brought in 9 mill from Szmodics, got the Raya money, Gally, Ennis etc. Why would we be spending 4-5 mill this season without major sales? Let alone just in the summer. -
But how?!? We don't know what division we're playing in next season...🙄

Won't get a lot more than 120k for him at that age.

v Sheffield Wednesday (h) - 8/4/2025
bluebruce replied to philipl's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
The commentators said something, and I didn't catch the specifics, but along the lines of if we lost it would be the worst run since 1992 I think it was, under a certain Kenny Dalglish. But the run of early conceding wasn't mentioned. I'd imagine it's longer since those sort of numbers we were talking about. -

Christ that's abysmal...apart from his first game, that's a goal conceded inside the first 20 minutes every single game, and 5 goals conceded in the first 10 minutes in just 6 games. I can't think of a worse record for starting games for any Rovers manager, at any point in their tenure. Let alone in the fucking honeymoon period! -

bluebruce replied to philipl's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Probably precisely because of the big improvement. With that and a surge of confidence from not being beaten at 2 down, he will probably feel this could be a turning point for him. -

Highlight of the match- camera switching to Suhail just after the 'Pasha out' banner was unfurled. The shadow man did not look happy! -

Is this ref on crack? Guy shoved Travis heavily right in front of him, outcome is Sheff free kick and a booking for Travis? Yes Travis mildly put his hand on him first but the ref didn't blow until Trav was shoved. God the refs in this league are nearly as bad as we are. -

They always count all the season ticket holders. Quite a few of whom probably aren't attending. -

Before isn't as bad, but still. And he's still a cheeky cunt - the fans asked him to stay away and he gives a pre match interview, which he never does, to ram home that he's going anyway.
