We are going down (the pessimism thread)
MarkBRFC replied to simongarnerisgod's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
They might win 1, but I don't see them winning both. -
v Coventry City (h) - 27/4/24
MarkBRFC replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I think we'll be nervy but I don't see us losing this one, but I don't have any confidence in us winning either. Going for a 1-1 draw. Brum to draw with Hudds, Plymouth to lose to Milwall & Sheff Wed to lose to WBA That would leave us safe going into the last day barring a ridiculous goal swing. A miserable end to the season seeing us staying up after being 7th in December thanks to the sides below us being even worse than us. -
Maybe it was reverse psychology by Waggott by trying to turn it into an away game considering we have won 1 home game in 5 months.

We are going down (the pessimism thread)
MarkBRFC replied to simongarnerisgod's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
This sort of chat always seems to happen after we lose. Birmingham couldn't even beat an already relegated side at the weekend, why are they all of a sudden going to beat both Huddersfield and Norwich? Sheff Wed against WBA, WBA played really well at Leicester and need another win to cement there play off place. Sunderland on the last day I give you is very winnable. Plymouth will get bullied at Milwall and get beat there fairly comfortably I think, last day at home to Hull depends what Hull turn up I suppose. We were all saying the same after Bristol City and managed to pull a result out of nowhere at the Leeds game, I don't think we'll lose to Cov as after Wednesday they will be out on there feet by the time we play them, can see a draw. For the record, I think we're dreadful, and if it was just us up against one other side, or if we were in the bottom 3 right now I would be saying that we would definitely be going down. As it stands though, like I have said too much needs to happen for us to go down, next season I agree with whoever said we go down wherever we are. Of course, that's what they want us all to believe. -

Brum & Sheff Wed won't both get 4 points in there last two games. Also don't think Plymouth will get another point. Always said no chance we go down this season and still believe that. Next season we're fucked. -
FA cup replays scrapped
MarkBRFC replied to wilsdenrover's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Man Utd pulling out in 2000 set the precedent there I think. No reason why teams couldn't boycott it if they wished too. -
v Sheffield Wednesday (h) - 21/04/2024
MarkBRFC replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Only one I can recall is early doors in the 97-98 season when we lost 4-3 under Hodgson, just about filled the bottom right corner of the Darwen End. Agree on Sheff Wed though they bought some really low followings in the 90s. -
v Leeds United (a) - 13/04/2024
MarkBRFC replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Can see this being 0-0 until half time and everyone saying "oh we're doing alright here" to lose 3-0 in the second half. Can't see anyone else around us winning this weekend so that's one plus. -
2024/25 Season Tickets
MarkBRFC replied to TheRevAshton's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
With the desperation of saving money etc I'm suprised that they are willing to still open the Riverside for next season with how small the uptake is and will be in there, and I sit in there. Has there been any discussions about that being a possibility? -
v Bristol City (a) - 10/04/2024
MarkBRFC replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
If we do go down, I will be looking at Eustace and the games against Milwall and Plymouth at Ewood. That was the time to pull away from this mess and we played like cowards in both of them. -
v Bristol City (a) - 10/04/2024
MarkBRFC replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
On the flip side I would argue that thanks to JDT's work until December that's the reason we'll stay up. Won't be much to do with this bloke who has 1 win in 12. -
v Bristol City (a) - 10/04/2024
MarkBRFC replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Your underestimating how bad the sides below us are. Genuinely think we could lose the next 4 fairly comfortably and still stay up due to sides around us all playing each other. -
v Bristol City (a) - 10/04/2024
MarkBRFC replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
We're going to end up staying up with 2 wins from our final 28 games, thanks to the absolute dross around us. -
2024/25 Season Tickets
MarkBRFC replied to TheRevAshton's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Bolton have announced this morning that they have passed 12k ST sales. Meanwhile our lot are still dithering about talking to fan groups about what to do, and then will probably do there own thing anyway. -

v Bristol City (a) - 10/04/2024
MarkBRFC replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Game too far I think after the efforts since Good Friday. No real options to freshen things up will see us lose this 2-0 I reckon. -
v Southampton (h) - 6/4/24
MarkBRFC replied to philipl's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Think Monday will have lured quite a few into a false sense of security. Southampton, whilst you can get at them have a ridiculous line of fire power that will be far to good for us I imagine. Rovers 1 Southampton 3 -
I'd be tempted to get Carter in at right back. Failing that JRC in at RB and Ayari in midfield.

Sunderland 1 Rovers 0

We are going down (the pessimism thread)
MarkBRFC replied to simongarnerisgod's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
We're very lucky our previous manager worked miracles to get the points on board that he did before December. That's what will end up keeping us up. Agree with the above, Hudds & Brum look dire and not convinced either will win again this season. Same with Plymouth. One win will do us. -

MarkBRFC replied to philipl's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Could have had 2 keepers in net with nobody stood in front of them, they wouldn't have got to that header. Szmodics was stood where the ball went, of course it impacts the keeper. -
Nothing new there, that's just the interview from back in August?

MarkBRFC replied to philipl's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Cardiff scored a very similar goal at Ewood this season which was disallowed for the same reason. I presume that was the correct decision, but this one wasn't?
