I am delighted we beat Doncaster- don't get me wrong. But trademark Mowbray is 1) over think and over compensate for the opposition pre-match so put out a confused and disjointed Rovers starting team which never gets going in the first half 2) under think what the opposition manager is going to do at HT 3) be pretty rigid about timing and personnel for substitutions

I would hang in there on Kipre. Given where we are in football's pecking order, we have little choice in the matter. Clear as day that WBA want somebody else

Reading this thread, I feel fully justified in having zero faith in Mowbray. I would love to see our current crop of players under different management. It would probably be a revelation.

Going to have to plug away to get a result.

On Saturday we went from 1-0 up to 1-2 inside 10 minutes of the restart. Come on, don't tell me it is uncommon for Rovers to emerge from the dug out looking like they don't have a game plan beyond holding it steady and the opposition manager has very effectively shifted things around to exploit our weaknesses.

Yet again v Doncaster, Mowbray comprehensively lost the HT team talk to the opposition boss. Between a third and a half of all Rovers team talks result in Rovers being out thought and out fought in the second half.

Posting to jolly this along towards 400 pages which will trigger the next signing.

The one indisputable fact from yesterday. The Doncaster Rovers half time team talk was a gazillion times better than Mowbray's.

Bell wins Pen for us.

JRC! 2-2 Big Ben made it

Bell made a total mess. 1-2

Doncaster penalty, Lenihan booked

Inspirational HT talk from Mowbray obviously

Idiot decisions taken on the ground staff in recent years.

Rovers 72% possession and ZERO fouls

Play offs excluded!!!!

The audio stream as just dropped!

Tells you how poor the audio stream is

Sounds like Rovers are playing terribly

I have paid for an audio only service???>?

No place for Gallagher and I think.that was a far worse signing than Brereton..

I don't think people truly understand how small and how much poorer Blackburn is as a town economically compared with the home locations of most other Championship clubs. Rovers do really well even now in the ratio of crowds to population size but Rovers' crowds are not only smaller than the Championship average but prices paid are below average also. Where this gets really painful for Rovers is on the commercial side where lack of businesses able to put in the sort of money other clubs get is dramatic. FFP has not gone away despite covid. Cases brought against other clubs show the League are applying pre Covid rules still. Remember we were going to be breaking FFP when Dack was unable to be sold in January. Management and owners throughout the League simply don't know where they stand relative to FFP in the current circumstances. One morbid thought is that other clubs are therefore hit far harder proportionately by zero gate and match day commercial income than Rovers are. Paradoxically I therefore bet Waggott and Mowbray are in a better position in this transfer window than at least half the other Championship management teams.

Given Bauer has got a mention, I always felt from what little I have seen, Saar is a better footballer than Bauer. Saar was a pain for our attack for 66 minutes when Charlton won at Ewood at the start of last season.
