Second goal was terrible by Lenihan

Looking at Lenihan and Carter at CH, both are very right footed. Not sure that combo would work long term.

It’s very simple really, we are a better shaped team when Graham plays. You don’t have to be a supreme athlete to play football, vision and being able to play others in are far more important.

At least with Graham in the side, the ball won’t keep ping ponging straight back when it’s played forward, and the best we’ve looked up front since the restart was in the last twenty minutes v. Bristol C. when Danny and Arma were playing together up front.

Your clips so far have been brilliant, Herbie. Many thanks for putting these glory day videos together, very much appreciated.

If some of the PL clubs want to finish the season just playing for places with no relegation, there is absolutely no point in completing the Championship fixtures. If all leagues are to finish they must do so with promotion and relegation, otherwise it’s a waste of time.

Very skilful player. I was in the crowd wearing a Rovers shirt at Stanford Stadium near San Francisco when Wegerle played for the USA v. Brazil in the last 16 of the 1994 World Cup. It was American Independence Day as well, so a brilliant atmosphere. I was about 20 rows back from the half way line and when the teams were warming up I shouted “Weggers” at the top of my voice and the man looked up and waved and gave thumbs up at the shirt, even though he had left Rovers by then. The fans around me thought it was great, asking if I knew him personally. Like most yanks, they had no idea who anyone on the US team was, they just wanted to see and be seen. They learned all about Blackburn Rovers though! In the game itself, Wegerle came on as sub.

Not sure if this has already been shared, but Rovers.co.uk are showing the full match of Rovers 5 Burnley 0 on YouTube tonight at 7pm. Details on rovers.co.uk.

Definitely a massive lift for the players from Charlie’s return, he must have given the pre-match talk.

I think it’s an accurate description of what has gone on, Charlie prefers to be at Ewood and is willing to fight for his place. Nothing sinister in my view. All the stats pertaining to results with him in the team fail to apportion blame to the rest of the team, who were playing poorly on a collective basis last season. Let’s see how it goes, if he can reproduce his form up to the end of Jan last year, it will be a major bonus.

Or maybe he just loves it at Rovers and just wants to see if he can get back into the team.

Football is all about opinions, I just think he’s a very good player.

Delighted to have Charlie back, best footballer we’ve got.

Looks like Preston about to sign Scott Sinclair from Celtic.

Exactly

Any teams that might get relegated because Bolton weren’t deducted points for missing games will be creating hell for the EFL. A free for all precedent has been created by favouritism for Bolton.

Well done, Mercer, after your aberration about the England Rugby team your prediction about Rovers doing a S. Africa on Wednesday comes true! No doubt, lashings of red tonight.

What happened Mercer? Hope Mowbray was watching S. Africa not England, who looked knackered and were out-coached.

Rovers will let her have an OAP season tkt, just call office or go down. My brother turns 65 2 days after season starts, they let him have the OAP tkt.

Hear, hear to all you say, Herbie. We owe a great deal of thanks to the folk who keep this site running.

There should be a parting of the ways with Conway, we need to comb the leagues for a stylish winger.

Kicking the ball out of play as an act of “sportsmanship” is one of the biggest problems in football. Totally ridiculous, because in 99% of cases there is nothing wrong with the injured player. The decision to stop play should be with the ref alone. If teams played on, it would cut out the nonsense in no time and time wasting feigning of injuries would be cut out immediately, especially if a goal followed.

I would say that Jim sums the season up really well in that article. For me, the best game I witnessed was WBA away, the second half performance being one of great football from Rovers, fantastic atmosphere in the Rovers stand and brilliant drama at the end.
