PFree Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 I'll start you with a couple: Okay, we've only taken 16 points out of a possible 57 but we are still outside of the relegation zone If we go down, we'll have the best stadium in the First division (albeit, it'll be less than half full every week) Any other positives to help cheer us up..?

redfieldred Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 Smith was the best player on the pitch apart from handley, did not deserve to be on the losing side. Ayling played quite well as did Bennett. Freeman was so bad the manager will have to now have to put Reid in for him when pack returns, ( that is a positive) The pack bashers will be quiet for a bit. Their dreams came true. Reid for pack and we created very little and looked less secure defensively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeAman08 Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 I thought 11v11 the teams were even and we maybe could've gotten a goal but neither team had great chances 11v11. Kept a £15m striker at bay. Korey Smith looked good. The bad is we lost, no baker next game and seem the boys are taking more and more knocks coming into the most congested part of the season. There is every chance this could be a brutal December for the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jay mizel Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 We were the better team first half. Playing two attacking midfielders helped push the other team up the pitch. If Baker hadn't wanted some time off (he's got form for this), we probably would have sneaked a win. Time for another pint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron-Bcfc Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 Here's another positive: We weren't that ******* bad today. Good thing the whole of OTIB wasn't at Rotherham last week. Blackburn have been on the up since Lambert took charge. We were definitely the better team until Baker got sent off. The leagues best striker (Rhodes) didn't get a kick and apart from Agards dodgy back pass they never looked like scoring from open play. Blatant penalty also turned down for us in the first half from Hanley's rugby tackle. I've struggled to praise us this season and was fuming after last week, but we were unlucky today.

Agree with all of that. 11 v 11 I think we'd have drawn, 12 v 10 we had no chance. All hindsight but with Blackburn doing everything to get him sent off I hope Cotterill subs Baker if this happens again. I thought Moore and Wilbraham did well when they came on, Reid showed that he is currently a better bet than Freeman and surely we'll be given a penalty soon? From my angle theirs also looked a dive, be interested in a South stand view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regarding the penalty at the end, from my view in the South Stand their player was definitely looking for it but it seemed like Flint was rash in diving in. My first reaction was that a penalty was inevitable. Be interesting to see it on the highlights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was right in front of me and I sit front row, the ball was gone by the time Flint got there and he caught the player, clear penalty Imo, blatant handball before it but that's neither here nor there, as for our turned down one, that kind of incident happens from most corners and is never given Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No you're right we weren't that bad but we still only had one shot on target at home for the whole 90 mins. That is becoming too frequent I'm afraid as we very rarely trouble the opposition keeper.

In other games he has tired and become ineffective as the game goes on. For me he was better than 6/10 across the whole 90.....and 41 of those minutes were with ten men. The OP was about positives, and he was for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
