You get a weird random feeling sometimes with players. Think the Goalie is one -

Spot on. We just have to look at why they have been fined in their own country. They bought Gary Neville's house and claimed they would be mining and farming on the land. It's a lie at best. -

Strange old game today. If we have a decent centre forward, we would have walked the game . We are basically playing without one (no false nine stuff). Goalie, back four and Tronstradt looked comfortable all day. That's a great base to build from. Attacking wise, Dolan is just miles off it. Genuine basic technical deficiencies. He has set the goal up, can't knock that. The interesting question is our best player, Wharton. We are poorer going forward, but more solid without him. I love the kid. If we can get a centre forward and get Wharton nearer to him, could be magic. -
v West Bromwich Albion (H) - 05/08/2023

Ewood is the only place in the world I enjoy the rain. Always makes for a good game. Won't repeat a lot of the brilliant points made by people previously, but the introduction of the World cup injury time is going to have an impact on games this year. Games will now be 105 minutes compared to 95. We lost a good young kid on Friday, he is nowhere near Hayden Carter. -

The beauty with iFollow, (VPN aside) is every fan of a football league club is going through the same. All waiting to see what happens. It's not just a Rovers product

I would hazard a guess that the active country will be taken into account when you reach the payment screen.

Opera browser has a built in VPN, just saying

It's actually a fairly decent law to protect football. Saves lower leagues and stops people sitting on their arses watching the top 4.

New Games/General Gaming
Speedie Dived replied to Cocker's topic in I Can't Believe It's Not Football
Played a lovely little game called The Cave. For Monkey Island fans it's a Ron Gilbert creation. Well worth a look. -
Why is it on us fans again to give him a chance? This will be the seventh manager we are being told to back, the owners want to try backing one.

New Camera Position In Riverside
Speedie Dived replied to AshleyClifford's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I have a friend at the ground at the moment and there is no gantry on the Riverside. Is this not happening any more? -
Just started watching Mr Robot, series about a genius hacker. Superb so far but pretty sure i have worked out the twist. Has been commissioned for a second season before the first even started. Well worth a watch.

The Relegation Thread
Speedie Dived replied to roverandout's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Yeah i do agree on luck, but don't recall two incidents like that happening for us. I have never thought we were good enough to go up since we have come down, we have not had the players. If new owners came in the first thing i would want is a new manager. However i have said it before and it's what i believe, i trust Bowyer to get us to a respectable mid table position more than i trust the owners to appoint a suitable new manager. -

But can you see that he is operating under conditions that the owners have directly influenced? Results have been poor, without question. Performances have been ok in some parts of games, very poor in others. Don't tend to bemoan luck but Wolves punched one in the net and the Fulham 'goal' was over the line by a mile. If we had spent the money Fulham had in the summer and we were in the bottom 3 then without question he should go. -
The Relegation Thread
Speedie Dived replied to roverandout's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I agree. As fans we went for the wrong target last time. As vile and under hand as Kean was, we should have targeted the real problem, the owners. If history repeats itself and we target Bowyer then we have once again missed the point. He is not the greatest manager in the world, but he is a million miles away from Kean. Tensions are ramping up each game at home and if "Bowyer Out" starts then we have learned nothing as fans. -

Yes apologies it was a bit of a sweeping statement. We could get a new manager bounce for a while, i agree. But nothing drastic will improve, imo. If Venkys are here in 5 years time, we might not even be in league one. -

Speedie Dived replied to roverandout's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
In a normal world yes i would agree. However, we live in Venky's world. The only managerial appointment they have got right so far is appointing Bowyer, who without, we would already be in League 1. The other three managers have been nothing short of diasterous (although i think Berg could have worked out) -

I too felt we would be in trouble this year, but changing manager wont make a blind bit of difference. A change of ownership is needed. If we get a new manager, he wont be able to sign anyone on over £10k in January. That is chronically pathetic by board/owners.
