I reckon we will beat Blackburn. Not because I've been told I'm a serial negative poster by @Gordon Armstrong @Smug in Boots @RTB
Just a hunch. Everything is cyclical. We will hopefully go on a good run now

 

I initially put 2-1 down on the predictor but after Friday I am reverting to type and going for 5-1. Just maybe we have found our line up thats works and whether by fluke or design it looked bloody good.
Hoping Jobe gets a couple more and would love Hemir to get a goal. Not bothered who scores our other two .

Cheers RTB we really are spoiled with the effort you put into these threads.

 

You missed a few out there tbf

Also the @tags don't work for some reason just FYI.

No offence BTW, you've labelled a few people in your time and once posted a thread about you being negative. I don't recall why but I think I was quite polite to you.

You labelled me touchy and protective about Sunderland the other day ...

... fair cop, I'm Gil T Azell tbf.

 

Yes mate, you posted a good article on the now closed Cardiff thread ...

... as I'd confused everyone I thought I'd be courteous and post it here.

It's my new regime to be nice to everyone

Alot of that is way over my head. I've labelled people? As your an expert in going through people's posts I'm expecting an avalanche of god only knows what.

 

I have my moments!

My grandson makes the same type of promises, I'll leave it at that

 

Don't take it all to heart man.

I'm sorry if you've been offended, I'm much worse with people I know ...

... they just give it back double.

As I've said I'm turning over a new leaf now

 

5-0 Jobe 3 Rigg 1 Ba 1, they have a great player i want us to sign, Szminoids.

 

Right, mark me down as officially concerned, this is far too positive a post and you've probably put the kibosh on the game.
PS Great bit of spelling, I like it

 

Got a good feeling about this game 3-0 Jobe, Adil and Mundle.

 

Got a feeling that this will be a tighter game than Cardiff so I'm going for 2-1 to the lads

 

Cheers RTB, you are the man for these threads.

Was so pleased with our performance on Friday. It was as close to the style of play we learned under Mowbray for a long time. Some real confidence and swagger. It was like a handbrake had been released. I hope this is the style for the rest of the season, win lose or draw. I have been in my Dads garden all afternoon and he doesnt watch anymore but I told him they just make you smile when they play like that.

I wouldnt tweak too much. Wouldnt mind seeing Roberts back if he is 100%. Would mean Rigg missing out perhaps, or maybe Ba is more vulnerable with Rigg moving to the left. I want Rigg to play every game to be honest, a real star in the making.

Jobe stays up front, lets see if he can repeat what I thought was an elite level CF performance. If he can maintain a performance level through to end of the season up top then he can be the CF to build the team around next season. It was that good on Saturday, I was drooling.

Blackburn are a solid side, and wont be a pushover by any means. But right now, if I were Dodds, I wouldnt be talking about any opposition, just about our own performance aspirations. Let the lads play for their positions next season.

 

I've got a feeling Roberts will come in for Ba

 

Thanks for another top thread RTB! Down for a rare game with the boy, think it'll be a tough match but reckon we'll squeak it by one goal and be smiling back up the A1. Haway the lads!

 

Hope you have a cracking day, where are you leaving from?

 

Thanks @RTB for another great thread, Im confident we can win

2-1 with Rigg and Jobe getting on the scoresheet

Hawaaaaaaaaaay

 

Will we see Roberts?

 

Hope roberts gets a good 20 mins but really hope he sticks with Rigg and Adil. Thought they brought real energy to the team Their movement gave Neil so many more options Think it will be tight Blackburn have struggled and suspect they will park the bus Think we will win but will be more than happy if we continue to play with the same freedom we did against Cardiff.
