  1. I buy on a game by game basis given my extremely unpredictable schedule. However, I did take up their E18 for December offer @ E3 per game.
  2. Watched Rovers 3 Leicester 1 Good win from u-23s considering they'd lost the last 3 and Leicester were looking to add to their run of 8 wins. Really impressed by Fisher. Mols looking good. Chapman both good and bad- gave away totally needless penalty which Fisher saved. If anything, the youngsters made Smallwood look like the baby in the side!
  3. What is this nonsense? Due to broadcasting restrictions, tomorrow's @SkyBetChamp clash with Bristol City will be unavailable to stream on iFollow both in the UK and internationally.
  4. Don't think Bristol City can be as bad again as they were in losing home to Millwall. This is another level of difficulty again beyond the Swansea game. Coming back with a point would be huge. Play Holtby in the Dack role, Johnson alongside Evans, Travis to replace Rothwell and pray for Downing to be OK. Bennett gives the ball away too much to be a safe option anywhere.
  5. Because the ref was crap and Dack getting sent off was inevitable. He got sent off for accidentally standing on the guy behind him doing a typical Dack spin. 11 v 10 with Holtby in the Dack space with Evans having another good game was obvious. Rothwell might have prospered with the additional freedom that would have given him if Gallagher had come on for DG in a double sub on the 60th minute.
  6. Worry is Downing had a poor game and tired really badly. Bennett would get slaughtered at left back v Bristol City. Williams hasn't travelled- got a huge head ache there.
  7. 1-1 FT. Really rubbish second half from Mowbray. Obvious player to replace Dack in Holtby on the bench change should have been made the moment Carroll was sent off.
  8. Sack has to be very careful with Carrol getting that second yellow.
  9. Let's see what Mowbray is made of this half time. 1) get into Dack's Noddle or get him off as he is a red card in the first 5 minutes of the second half otherwise. 2) rocket up Armstrong and Rothwell to get them working covering off counter attacks and offering when we are on the counter attack. 3) everyone shoot on site with DG told to gamble all the time 4) Travis twice had space to run into the penalty area. Run at it lad and buy the penalty chance 5) Tosin step up the concentration and tempo a notch 6) everyone, Ayew is left foot We can win this if Mowbray gets half time right. We will lose if the team talk is for more of the same...
  10. Rothwell defensive and covering work not good so far. Armstrong being out-muscled. Giving away too many free kicks and Swansea corners are excellent.
  11. Rubbish defending at the corner made it far too easy for Swansea
  12. We can make it a hattrick of 3-1 defeats at the Liberty... We took the lead in the last two as well didn't we? Great DG goal wasn't it!
  13. Watching the lads walk towards a fixed camera along the touchline gave a great sense of respective heights. Walton, Tosin, Gallagher and Brereton heads were missing from view! Don't realise how little Dack is either until seeing a camera angle like that.
  14. We have an XI which has won four on the trot so unless there's a serious injury they have to start again. Change the starting line up and we lose and I will add Swansea to Charlton, Luton, QPR and PNE tp Mowbray points dropped. Win at Swansea and Bristol City and I will give Mowbray the benefit of being our twelth man in two difficult fixtures.
  15. Charlton have bthe worst form bar Barnsley currently and will need to buy well in January to survive
  16. On Saturday we had more wins than defeats for the first time for months. Feet on the ground. Division is ridiculously tight with fans of ten clubs realistically seeing the prospect of breaking into the top six if they have a good December and New Year.
  17. A bit difficult to squeeze an extra 10,000 into a building site when we were first in the Premier League. We were averaging over 25,000 when we came 6th and went six seasons without a gate under 20,000 in the league. I think we have had seven 30,000+ gates in the new Ewood until the police and security got nosebleeds about it.
  18. Jim had Rovers playing some fantastic entertaining winning football. Very happy days at Ewood.
  19. Isn't that two home defeats on the trot for Bristol City?
