A fair assessment from someone who didnt watch the game today. We are debating his performence today. Please show me what i quouted that you didnt say?You started with the namecalling -

Majority of the board say Buckley played well,guess we are all idiots and you are right with your "superior knowledge" -

Great save by Pears towards the end. Rothwell and Buckley class above. Well done Mowbray -

Ha my superior knowledge?What about yourself? I mention he has 7 or 8 goal involvements.You dismiss it.I then say he has 3 assists and you say that isnt great for an attacking midfielder in a free scoring side.I then mention 3 assists is joint second for the team this season and you start banging on that he would have started more games than the others. I mention he has played multiple positions this season.You dismiss that also and compare him with Gallagher and Dolan who play as part of a front 3 when selected. He has playing well this season.I am not the only one saying it.If there was to be a poll on here wether Buckley should be starting or not my money would be on a higher percentage saying he should be playing. The assist the other night was a fantastic ball, not disputing it was a great header but Buckley put it into a lovely area but again you play it down. Rothwell is currently a better player but he was in and out of the Oxford side at Buckleys age and i dont care if i sound arrogant or not imo Buckley will be a premier league footballer and there isnt one bit of doubt in my mind he should be starting the majority of games for us Oh and of course i would listen to Dacks opinion etc,i never said i used it to form my own.Dack will have seen him a lot more than you are i so i would be "arrogant" not to at least consider his opinion.I remember reading an article not too long ago from Mick Rathbone, he was working for Forest and said Brererton had the potential to be a £30 million pound player and Warburton said he had it in his locker to reach the top, yet some on here where saying he would be playing in the lower leagues....which is the more accurate statement now? Buckley is a young player, im not disputing he has had shit games but so have many others, he has something in his locker that not many at this level have and with gametime and more experience we will see more of it -
Plus we had mowbray saying last summer he didnt want to talk about contract extensions with the pandemic yet he still brought in 12 players that summer through loans ,free transfers and permanents.That 2k a week we spent on trybull could have been added to Nyambes package. The overall fault lays at the owners door but Mowbray and Waggott are definitely complicit in the situation we find ourselves in

More game time shifted all over the place,Dolan and Gallagher play in the front 3. Yesterday you play down his goal involvments yet without him on the field those goals may not have happened.He has won the ball back countless times for us.And the stats will show he is worth his place in the team. We will agree to disagree but lads who see him everyday(including Dack) talk about how much talent he has not my problem you cant see it -

He has played rb, right wing back, as part of a 3 in midfield,behind the striker and false 9 so yes you may be correct he has played a lot but not always as an attacking midfielder -

islander200 replied to Gone to seed's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Buckley is joint 2nd with with Dolan and Gallagher with 3 assists with only Rothwell doing better with 6. We will just have to agree to disagree but imo Buckley has a big future will only get better with more game time like Brererton -
If my posts appear that i am saying no blame is attached to the owners then i apologise for coming across wrong as of course i do think it is the overall responsibility of the owners to ensure we dont get put in a situation like this. From various reports it would seem our highest earners are on 17/18 grand a week.If Rothwell and Lenihen are looking for that or over it, id argue they aint worth that certainly in the case of Rothwell prior to this season and although i think we are a stronger side with Lenihen in the team , i do not think he has pushed on and as an individual i think better could be found on the market . Other teams with similar income in this division wont be paying their players 20+ a week.

I wouldnt sell them either but if say Rothwell agreed with Rangers in January that he would sign on a free transfer when his contract is up do we think he would be giving 100% the last few months of his deal here or would we be listening to the manager telling us Lenihen, Nyambe and Rothwell have been left out due to their heads not being right? Like you say we are likely to recieve peanuts if we do cash in on those 3 in January, but keeping them we aint guaranteed they will be busting a gut for us either -
You are obviously referencing my post with your use if the word "privy". If you read my post in caps i said we dont know if it is ALL down to the owners, which we dont. Plenty of money was found to extend ageing and past it players.

How many improved contracts did Bennett and Evans have? Mulgrew? Smallwood?Sam Hart etc etc etc? Bradley Johnson effectively a 3 year contract. The contract situation isnt as black and white as the picture you are trying to paint.Offers have been made and unless you are privvy to the finer details of said offers how can you be so certain ALL the blame lays at the feet of the owners?

He still has 3 assists this season and has generally been playing well. He can pick a pass better than anyone in the squad and is well worth his place in the team. -

islander200 replied to Gone to seed's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Not many in our squad are capable of playing the ball he did last night for the opening goal. Not all assists but he has had 7 or 8 goal involvements so far this season. -

No you think this.He will not be going for nothing.You are obviously on the wind up and trying to scare monger as for a man so certain of something funny you wont commit to taking an easy £100 off me -

I think the situations are a lot different.Chapman wasnt potentially bringing in 15+ million.Currently Brererton is our highest valued asset so i do think the club would be absolutely certain that option was in Brerertons contract before sharing it with the local paper -

So the club dont know? We didnt activate Rothwells and Nyambes year until last summer.Sharpe knew about both those before activation. The £100 bet is still on the table that he wont be leaving for free this summer. -

In fairness the club got that wrong.Mowbray himself thought it If we didnt have an option in Brerertons contract the club would be shitting themselves and we would be seeing his name linked with a lot more clubs -

So how did Sharpe know all the other times players had year options before the club activated them? Not an assumption im going off what Sharpe has written and like i said above he was on the money all the other times.Like Rothwell and Nyambe going into this season.He had it in the paper before the club activated the year Are you going to show this evidence that Brererton was a Balaji signing? -

I didnt qoute you today.You quoted my post.And you did say all those things. If i see something i disagree with on here then i give my opinion.Isnt that the point of a messageboard? I also said in my post i agree with some of your views but definitely not when it comes to young players. You drop Buckley every week and even early part last season you were on Brerertons back when he was contributing to the team. Also you comment on me quoting your posts, there was a point on here when you quoted every single post chaddy made -

Sharpe will have asked the club about Brerertons contract situation. That other story that was posted no questions will have been put to the club .
