Match Day Thread Blackburn v Hull City

You know how Norwich are always too good for the Championship but can never cut it in the Premier League and inevitably go straight back down?

I have a feeling that's gonna be us between League 1 and the Championship.

 

We're a point above the bottom three having played same matches.

 

He's being saved for Saturday.

 

He could have been a sub.

 

We’re making an average championship side look good

 

Not looking forward to Saturday....

 

Didn't we concede in double quick time in the 2nd half last time we were there. Nailed on..0-3 de-javu city.

 

Ya never know .. if (and its a big if) we get one I would fancy us to get another but it's getting that first one !

 

Oh well. I’m sure we’ll score again, don’t know where, don’t know when…

 

what the hell has happened to KLP? Looks a shadow of the player he was v Preston

 

..but I know we'll score again on a Sunday...

 

Moncur has been excellent since he came on...

 

Blackburn brought two subs on - either McCann didnt think they would have any influence on the game or he had no idea what impact they would have - either way he got it wrong - either he hadn't done his homework on the opposition or he thought his set up could deal with the changes - nothing to do with a crystal ball but all to do with insight, knowing your opposition and knowing how to deal with them - McCann has demonstrated a total lack of insight and demonstrated he can only manage with hindsight

 

Keep smiling through and perhaps we’ll get two !

 

Because he's playing at a higher level. I'd drop him on Saturday and play Moncur or Longman.

 

Based on appearances and injuries - Magennis not fit , KLP , Tyler Smith , Matt Smith Moncur , Hudds last Saturday , Smallwood so how can we play 90 with continuous energy ?

 

I predicted the other week we would go down despite it being so early , and this game just sums up why I think that . We actually played a lot better in the first half , and deserved a lead but that was us playing at our top and still not good enough to get in front . Blackburn were dog **** but just stepped up a gear and killed the game just like that . For all our endeavour we just don’t have good enough players or manager for the championship IMO . Call it negative nonsense all you like , it’s just how I see it . Not even angry or anything Cos they did what we wanted first half and had a go , but if you haven’t got the quality , you haven’t got it . Simple as that . Best hope is a Turkish manager and 5 or 6 Turkish signings in January -

 

You’re expecting him to have foresight that two players would cause them to score within about three minutes - it wasn’t Messi and Ronaldo!

 

Docherty as well. He's done a lot of running but technically he looks a little lost compared to Championship opposition.

 

So they make 2 changes and dominate for 10 mins scoring 2 goals .. daft lad decides finally to make the changes and we get the upper hand in the game again. So fkn disappointing this
