The single biggest goal keeper mistake we made was letting Shay Given leave

Rayas big test coming right up and I suspect that he might be found wanting especially if the arsenal click

Let’s be honest Rovers leadership team have witnessed the decline in season ticket holders over the years YET they still haven’t done anything to address it. At the same time Rovers fans simply made their mind up no matter what happens on the pitch. I believe Rovers supporters have a part to play themselves in trying to be positive about the club instead of the doom and gloom merchants pontifical about everything and anything especially when there is no evidence to support their views. If there was a positive thing on Saturday it was the rovers support it was great to be back. I am not saying it’s time to forgive what’s gone on but maybe it is time to simply look forward and support the club and team and then who knows what can be achieved. Backing the team and backing the club doesn’t mean that you have to love maggot or Mowbray the team and club are bigger than them both it’s those players who wear the shirts that matter. Come on guys and girls give it a go get you pals back into the ground and back the team. You know it makes sense

I think Rovers and Newcastle have a great relationship so why would anyone jeopardise that? I am sure deals like this happen all the time but even a snake like maggot won’t be able to get the upper hand in negotiations with fat Ashley and co

Until it is announced people should stop slating others for views/opinions furthermore stop speculating it will have an effect on what i have mentioned earlier !

Any decent striker with good service will score a bag full for Rovers with some of the players we have. Chapman, Pickering, Butterworth, Brereton, Buckley and Rothwell are all capable of a good pass we just need a finisher.

Valid point. Looking at Che Adams, its taken him almost 2 years to get up to speed in the PL. I wish him all the very best but would welcome him back with open arms

The idiot i am referring to is Maggot not Mowbray!

The reality is that Rovers had very few cards to play because they have a fucking idiot at the helm! Good luck to Armstrong, lets hope he does well. If he doesnt bomb he can always come back on loan !

You are missing the point ARA I know every player worth his salt wants to go to the PL however he hasnt asked to leave he simply declined to sign the contract offer in front of him.

We can only dream of someone inside the club having inventiveness and forethought!

Yet again, where have we ever seen Armstrong has asked to leave? Its just speculation without evidence.

Incompetence is maggots forte

Game aside and mention of Amstel lager being like the piss water it is I cannot understand or indeed I am amazed that no one has pointed out the price of a spud pie £3.80🤬 I saw the eats deal £8 for a pint and a pie or hot dog! WTF ? If Rovers had the sense to drop pies to a reasonable price they would sell many more. £2.20 for a small bottle of water? It’s pricing gone mad on the concourse.

Mowbray has not said Armstrong wants to leave, he said he knocks on his door daily and has been very professional about his situation. At no point does he infer Armstrong is demanding to leave or asking for a transfer. As it stands there is no one inside Rovers set up to either confirm or deny any speculation nor have we a roverswiki leak that feeds us titbits. Anyhow until anything occurs it’s not worth getting het up about it👍

I am no expert but where has anyone seen a story that Armstrongnhas said he wants to leave? All we have isnthatbhenhas so far declined to sign the contract that has been offered to him. Any professional footballer who ‘strikes or sulks” whilst having to play in contract sends a totally wrong message out to any prospective employer so being professional he would have little option but to carry on performing both in training and for the first team especially if he was looking to move or attract additional interest in him. No performing means no real interest, injury fears or not.

Missing the game myself. I would not risk any player carrying a knock. For me the game means nothing so play the reserves this cup doesn’t matter in the long run especially this season.

Match day ticket income for Spurs for premier games is worth a minimum of £39 million per season and doesn’t include any corporate income, match day income, shirts, sponsorship and tv money. Whatever debt they have is completely serviceable with ease and worth noting they have professional set ups across all aspects of football with a seriously good CEO at the helm in Levy. I will repeat we have Maggot the Waggot! We have no leadership at the helm, no football commercialism gurus we have Maggot! Its nonsense to even mention the likes of any PL clubs debt to Rovers Chaddy.

Spurs get 60000 fans a home game are a top 6 team and have commercial experts when it comes to earning dosh. Rovers have maggot the waggot😅

Absolute bollocks on that claim both tin pot outfits with shit grounds and brain dead support😅🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻

Whilst firmly in the Mowbray out movement I found myself walking away from Ewood pleasantly surprised, glad we won, chuffed to break the opening season game hoodoo and wondering if we as fans have got it all wrong! I must admit when I saw the line up as well as the bench I was afraid my prematch prediction of a heavy defeat was inevitable but what I as well as all Rovers fans who watched the game bore witness to, we saw a work ethic often missing on the pitch especially under TM and co. My observations in short: Dolan had a superb game but should have scored a hat trick. Brereton played with so much confidence. Defensive wise we did ok especially Ayala. Midfield worked their socks off at times despite being overrun on occasion. Those who slate Buckley need to understand how he plays. He is definitely a player with some superb tackles, ball winning and ball playing. A real star in the making. Rothwell showed his class at times but worked very hard. Travis was class and lead the team with Lenihan who was very comfortable in the middle. The subs all played their part and young Butterworth should have crowned his cameo with a goal. I am always happy to win games and perhaps it was due versus Swansea however in saying that we need an experienced midfield general who can defend, break up play and put the team on the front foot. I am also very saddened that Armstrong didn’t get out to say a farewell but for me and as someone on here pointed out, we appear to be a better team without him.

The bench is very light weight with no experience whatsoever Mowbray needs sacking and replacing. Its got another huge home defeat written all over it🤬

Add the maggot as well🤬🤬

It’s a move forward if you ask me, match day programmes are a thing of the past

Oh I am not sure Bristol away when we won and nobbers capitulated at home was bad, as was the day bumley survived that drop
