Another game another win,how great that feels.We need a goalkeeping coach asap,what's John burridge doing these days.Raya has everything but presence,needs to realise he is the only one who can catch the ball.
On to Wimbledon which won't be easy but we are on fire and seem to have forgotten how to lose ps bleeding Plymouth in the playoffs now.

We said same yesterday , he needs time one on one with crosses and kicking . How I have no hangover is baffling ha. We can't put a 90 mins display in . Mind you a great result in the end . Lennihan & nayembe were outstanding yesterday.
We found a club at the side of the ground and it was full of rovers and caught up with a few old mates as well.
Just reading some of the team were chucking up at half time as well . That don't bode well for Tuesday night.

Good win. First half brilliant, second half not as good but I honestly don't know what the fans expect. Walsall are at home, they've been battered for 45 minutes, should be 3 or 4 nil down. Obviously their manager is gonna put a rocket up them in the dressing room and obviously they're gonna come out fighting. Football games where one team dominates for 90 minutes just don't happen and it was pretty pathetic how much the fans turned on the players just because we had to weather some mild pressure in the 2nd half. "Rovers till I die"? How about Rovers till we're not completely bossing the game and then shout abuse at them till I die.

I never heard anyone turn on the players .
Me neither.
Frustrated and anxious definitely but no-one 'turned' that I heard. I thought the support was great throughout, been even better if everyone had known all the words to the Mowbray had a dream song!

Reminded me of Notlob, ??????.......?????? the famous Bolton Wanderers.
Probably just me but I never could work out what was sung before the last 3 words.

Anyway:

Mowbray had a dream, to build a football team, We had no money so We signed some players on loan, Mulgrew at the back and Dack in attack, WE're Blackburn Rovers and WE're on our way back!! duh, duh.........

COYB!!

Maybe you were in the end, that seemed a lot more supportive. I was in the side and around me there was nothing but angry criticism 2nd half. Went to the loo halfway through it too and had to walk almost the full length of the side, could hear it all along.

The depressing reality of modern supporters but it doesn't half ruin it for me personally when there's a few nobheads behind shouting "get it on the floor" at the slightest thing, and some fat hag screaching and moaning like some petulant 4 year old at every move that doesn't slice through the opposition like a knife through butter. And then of course the classic "get it wide!" bellow, as though getting it wide counts as half a goal or something.

Every time I say its the last game I'm going to, trying to support Rovers stood amongst cretinous idiots with zero football knowledge and playing experience shouting their angry, moronic instructions at the team. Sooner or later it will be and I wonder how many positive fans the moaners have driven away already. There's no way I'd take a kid to Rovers with the hostility and language that goes on these days.

I was in the side as well and heard nothing negative.
I never hear any real negative stuff from around me except the odd moan when someone gets a pass on the wing and immediately passes back to the centre back immediately killing the break.
