Snots Forest v Not Very Rampant Rovers: 20th February 2021

[Old Darwen Blue]

“My post match criticism of Dumb and Dumber was defended by their chief cheer leader ODB who informed me that Dumb had actually punctured his lung in the 8th minute!”

Are you still pissed as I don’t know where you got that from, I only heard after the game about his injury and had no idea when it occurred?

An interesting read nonetheless, chief cheerleader indeed lol.

No I wasn't popped up like when we get back to the pub after a trip to Ewood. You said he 'd punctured a lung but I think it was TM who said it happened in the 8th minute. I do rem the challenge and that Ribeiro did it intentionally and it was a cautionable offence, definitely dangerous play and to add insult to injury he did another foul within minutes and never even got warned by the Ref.
In fact I mentioned it here......

Harwood-Bellis 1 foul and straight in the book whilst ribeiro has done two in a minute and got nowt.

Was this lad watching the same game or is it just lazy journalism?

I knew you were wrong. There, it does happen.

Maybe he´s also in with the ´Coventry Cartel´?

Seriously only Nyambe and Davenport would have got above a 4.

I wonder if we are going to take the hammering our play has deserved any time soon? As this ´unlucky to lose´excuse is getting a bit grating - especially in matches where we should have lost by more.

On the whole we seem to have had more luck when picking up points. The Millwall ´handballs´, Braithwaite´s head kick v Boro etc.

Harsh that. Kaminsky played well as did Branthwaite, Elliot and Armstrong. imo of course.

Nyambe is not out long term and Gallagher expects a swift recovery from his knock.

Mowbray is not a Doctor so should cut back on immediate post match, agenda driven, medical diagnosis based on emotion and his need to blame fans and very mild pressing from the media.

Lancs Live football reporting is, like the LT, committed to all things good in a non objective way.

Edit: I will have to temper my Lancs Live view in light of this latest article:

Rovers are building for the future whilst seemingly ignoring the present

Mike Delap used to run the rovers version of 'vital' football didn't he? Seems he's as sick as I am of seeing useless triangles being played outside our opponents penalty areas with no end product. TM needs to look no further than the goal scorers list to see the problem.
