For a bit of context, Blackburn fans are elated with their performance yesterday, many saying it was their best of the season. A few are saying that the ref had a poor game too, but was crap for both teams. https://www.brfcs.com/forums/topic/36370-v-hull-city-a-291022/page/21/
I counted six or seven 50:50’s where the ball went into touch and the ref awarded all to Blackburn, statistically, that seems very unlikely. Right about the Seri challenge, very reckless. Anyone know what the linesmen actually do, apart from waiting for the ref to tel, them?
Can anybody clarify the rules re subs. I thought a team could make up to 5 changes but with only 3 breaks in play. Do half time subs not count in the 3 breaks?
Good away performance from Blackburn they got the goal sat back and soaked up the pressure. They sit 2nd in a League with no stand out team.
Welcome back to the MKM mate As others have said, beaten by a better team yesterday. Thought we were off it first half yesterday but couldn't fault the effort 2nd half -just lacking a bit of quality (particularly up front). Hopefully we'll get a 90-minute performance on Tuesday and a positive result
We are **** at cheating. Other teams do it so much better than we do, there's a lack of nous across our team.
Best team won. No disgrace in that because whilst many will understandably have been disappointed losing at home yesterday it was another sharp reminder of where we really are right now especially when you look at the league positions between the two sides. Not on a downer btw as we have definitely improved under Dawson but to become a good solid Championship side like yesterday’s opposition with the right man in charge it’s going to be a season of stability and hopefully steady improvement which I don’t personally have a problem with. UTT.
Typical City springs to mind. Just emphasises that the two away wins were either a flash in the pan, or shows just how poor Blackpool and Rotherham were. Probably the latter. With stiffer away games on the horizon. The collapse at home must be addressed ASAP.
No one has mentioned getting Curtis as a player, it was said we could do with Curtis Davis type of player to organise the defence.
Blimey, we were playing a top 2 team and we still didn't do too badly considering we still don't have our first choice 11 on the pitch. Give them a break!
A break? I'd rather have a kit-kat. If Blackburn are top. I wouldn't like to see the bottom. Just a minute! Ps. City's home form is crap. 5 defeats in 6. Needs to be addressed ASAP by whoever comes in. Assuming that was Daws last game.
Figgy's was easier. Instead of sticking his nogging on it, he appeared to pull out when all it needed was a glance.
Know what you mean. I’m just about convinced we won’t go down now because let’s face it up to a few games ago we looked pants. Like another poster suggested the managers name is irrelevant so long as he himself fits into the dressing room and therefore in return extract’s 110% out of each and every player.
Jones was hooked to put Greaves back to left side cb, where he belongs, and bring Fleming back to lb, and the team immediately looked more balanced and threatening. We got away with Greaves playing wide left recently, and he did pretty well, but it's not his natural position as he's not quick or mobile enough. Although not match fit, Fleming was tricky and positive and gave Blackburn something to think about.
