A few have said we would have lost that last season. Didn’t we win a very similar game there last season, we were well under the cosh the whole game, rode our luck (Big Bad Branthwaite with the most blatant red card) and then Rothwell got the winner Hope it is a sign of a more robust team long term though

I said the same a few weeks back, he was clearly slurring but then he addressed it 🙂 Anyway, good point on the back of a scrappy sounding game Need to add some quality; I reckon Nyambe will leave this week

Kammy revealed recently that he’s been suffering with Hypothyroidism that has affected his speech

Ben Shitehawk scores for North End Sounds like we need to up our game

Get in Gally

Saw a rumour that Ashley Phillips was travelling with the squad - doubt he’d be in the squad but a big sign of intent for the 16 year old if true

Have we reached the ‘struggling to get deals over the line, May wait until January’ stage yet of setting expectations on the striker front?

Not many of us thought good on Dean Henderson when he did the same mind you

Clarkson did show flashes of class and ultimately played a part in the goal but I did think he delayed just too long before playing that ball and overcooked it slightly, luck is a decent trait to have though

I commented on how bad both the screen and the scoreboard look, really showing their age and dead ‘pixels’ all over the place

The family stand seems to have had very little attention, the steps up the the seats are all cracking, probably not an issue for now but some look like they’ll be a danger in time. There’s a chief steward or similar, nice chap who is usually around the concourse entrance nearest the centre (where I sit) and he was making notes yesterday of issues he’d spotted so hopefully there will be things done. Have to say the pitch isn’t looking great so early in its life though

First time seeing Carter properly today, he got caught under the ball and got slightly fortunate a couple times but he really impressed me with his composure on the ball, looks a real talent.

Been kind to us there, missed off them hitting the post and the bar along with a few more chances!

Tony Mowbrays blue and white army came from the Blackburn end a few times. Was watching Chapman ‘warm up’ today and he looked like he had a real sulk on when davenport got the call and was barely even stretching, that said he looked a threat when he came on, think he deserves a start certainly Buckley couldn’t complain if he lost his place next time up.

My uncle was in hospitality today, apparently it was a nightmare trying to get hold of anyone to book it What’s the deal with using the top tier for Swansea to stifle the atmosphere yet when West Brom bring more we start them off in the bottom tier. Either it’s tactical or greed, pick one!

Tough game against a team that will be promoted, another day we snatch a point (and on another concede 5)

4th time off the woodwork bloody hell

Stunning save Tommy

Come on Rovers, dodgy keeper here

Again moments after hitting the bar, can’t pretend we aren’t warned Not sure why the Blackburn End are so mad at handball being given when Brereton nearly caught it

Superb ball there by Jezza but we are lucky to still be in sight here Their manager is night and day with Mowbray

The most initiative we’ve shown so far is trying to knick their towel

Anyone see a replay of that? Looked a foul but thought he was offside from the flick

It’s not often a team scores in the first minute and you can say it’s been coming

I personally wouldn’t play Buckley as a false 9 but will refrain from commenting further as it could be a master stroke. Too often have I spat my dummy out over a team selection and been made to look daft. Tough tough game but I’m going for a battling 2-2
