  1. A shot. We’re really growing into this game now…
  2. I would have thought that if he knew the players were against Manning but didn’t want to upset the club he just wouldn’t say anything about it rather than stating the opposite.
  3. I think this is a huge part of it for me. Mid to lower table teams at home. Unless we work out how to win/draw the majority of these we aren’t going anywhere. I’m relatively comfortable with how we play and fair against better opposition at the moment (clearly improvements can be made there as well). Home games against Cardiff, Swansea, Blackburn, Huddersfield and Rotherham. We need points and far more convincing displays.
  4. Not entirely sure what people want from a debut other than a goal, someone who made us seriously dangerous from set pieces for the first time in donkeys years and generally made a nuisance of himself high up the park. He wasn’t perfect and tried a lot of things that didn’t come off. I was happy he was trying. If he is type of player and style of play Manning wants I’m in.
  5. What that video reminds me is not only what a great finisher he was but how much I miss Dele Adebola.
  6. Wouldn’t it be awesome if we had a coach/manager good enough to be poached by someone better.
  7. I think the reaction on here alone would be worth an LJ reappointment!
  8. Don’t get the anti Rowett stuff. He looks a decent option to me. Complaints about playing style seem slightly odd as Pearson didn’t exactly deliver earth shatteringly good football or results at home and I say that as someone who has no issue with him.
  9. Some people believe the preservation of native species is more important than football. Which is a fair view.
  10. I’m a bit surprised they didn’t flag Wells offside…
  11. But then it is close to the Forest of Bowland, Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District with Manchester and Liverpool not far away. He probably wouldn’t live in central Blackburn!
  12. Absolutely spot on here. You just can’t compare football and rugby. When a penalty is given in rugby usually it’s involving the forwards and they are shattered from the last phase of play and in a pile on the ground. It just isnt the same as football where they are relatively fresh players within yards of the red all on their feet with a decent view of the incident. Only the captain being able to talk to the ref would be the best way to take something from rugby if it could be managed. It would take a lot of strong refereeing to dish out the yellows and reds when it was first done but I feel it should be achievable.
  13. There’s usually something similar in any sport where you have to turn a blind eye to something to allow you to enjoy it at the highest level at least. I love watching professional cycling. I know the history of the sport wi the regard to doping. I’m sure there are athletes doping and/or manipulating the rules to their advantage but I still love to watch it and just have to not think about it otherwise the joy goes. Same goes here in football.
  14. Whilst my comment was a bit tongue in cheek if found guilty what does this open them up to in terms of being sued by pretty much anyone for some sort of loss of revenue? Could be an epic class action!
  15. Can we have the league cup they screwed us out of in 2018?
