v West Bromwich Albion (H) - 05/08/2023
rovers11 replied to Polky's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
This will almost certainly be the starting 11. I think that's 5 players short of what our first choice line up will be moving forward. l think Pears will drop down to the bench, Wharton will come in for Trav, and none of the front 3 of Leonard, Dolan, Hedges will be regular starters. I'd take a draw tomorrow. -
Girona Friendly - #fanstakeover

Respectable scoreline and decent enough performance by the sounds of it. That's a wrap for pre-season. It goes without saying that's it been a very poor summer. Two new signings haven't kicked a ball in pre-season, budget slashed, manager wants out, and several others out injured. Not excited at all about the new season. Lower mid table as it stands. -

Going into the season with Dolan - Leonard - Markanday as our front 3. Very concerning. -
What a surprise, no goals! We'll see a lot of games next season where 0 is against our name if we don't sign some attacking players.

Think that's not far off what we'll see on day one of the new season. No idea where the goals come from in that team though.

Pears/ Kaminski.. summer plans?
rovers11 replied to NeilInBristol's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Not great news. Pears is our new number 1 and Kaminski is obviously on his way. -
v Millwall (a) - Monday 8th May
rovers11 replied to arbitro's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Bullied all over the pitch. There's no steel in this team. As others have said, Pickering, Travis, Thomas, Diaz, Hedges, Pears all need replacing. -
Feels like a much needed revenue boost for us. Waggot will be happy.

Goodnight Vienna. See you in the championship again next season. -
v Luton Town (h) - 1/5/23
rovers11 replied to roverandout's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
They're all good squad players but not one of them is good enough to start in this league. Get Dack on. -
v Luton Town (h) - 1/5/23
rovers11 replied to roverandout's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Same old. Playing them off the park but no cutting edge. A sucker punch from a long throw anyone? -
v Luton Town (h) - 1/5/23
rovers11 replied to roverandout's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I think we'll win tonight by a couple pf goals. We're desperate for the points and Luton won't be at full tilt. Will go down to the final day where I reckon we'll draw. -
Not too bothered about tonight's or tomorrow's results. Sadly I think our hopes realistically disappeared with those late goals we conceded against Cov and Preston. Add some goals to the squad and we'll be a real force next season.

Pleased with the commitment and desire but absolutely no quality up front. Didn't create a single chance of note. -

rovers11 replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Knew that would happen. We have nothing up top and, even though they've not had a kick all game, they've got better individuals who can produce a moment of magic. What a rotten run of form. -

Every season we seem to fail in the Jan transfer window and that's why we generally struggle in the latter part of the season. Last season we were neck and neck with Bournemouth for second place but then they blew us out of the water with their Jan transfer dealings. We signed no one of note and capitulated. -
v Preston (a) - 22/4/23 - 17:30 k/o
rovers11 replied to roversfan99's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
There's a whole clutch of clubs that can say that though. Norwich, for example, were in an excellent position after they beat us but have capitulated since. Millwall have hit a rotten run of form, Watford are a shambles, Preston messed it up in games on paper they should have won. The list goes on. -

Absolutely gutting to drop points with the last kick of the game twice in one week. We're still in a good position but you get the sense those two late goals will ultimately cost us. Whatever happens I'm delighted with the progress we've made this season. We've got the best young players in the league, our style of play over the past couple of months has been excellent, and we added 3 very good players last summer - Hyam, Szmodics, Brittain. And a good manager too! With players on long term contracts we're well set whereas previous years it's felt like a re-build every summer. We're crying out for a couple of quality attacking players who can score goals and an upgrade on Travis in the middle of the park. Get that then I think we'll be competing for top 2 next year. Genuinely think we're only 3 players away. On yesterday, I thought Hedges was brilliant when he came on so it's so annoying that he fluffed his lines at the end. It's also interesting how Gallagher is such a limited player but also such a huge influence on results. The win rate with and without him speaks for itself. -

Difficult to see this game not ending 0-0 -
Yes Wigan! That could be huge for us.

Don't see any goals in that team. Fear we will lose this one. -

rovers11 replied to Sweaty Gussets's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Gutting, it was definitely handball. It's not too damaging given other results, it's just as you were really. How we've got on such a long winless run yet are still in the top 6 is baffling. Surely we're due a win soon. -

rovers11 replied to Sweaty Gussets's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Excellent half of football. The football has been slick and high energy, they haven't really had a kick. Excellent finish from Gallagher and we not often able to say that. Wharton and Brittain have added a bit more energy and quality to the side. I don't think this will finish 1-0 though. Next goal will be vital. -
That was rubbish. Gallagher and Diaz, there are no words. Abysmal. Still in the play off mix.

Not so sure about that. They couldn't beat Rotherham at home.
