    Thought Ballard got totally clattered by their keeper and should've been a second penalty

    Is this a Blackburn stream on sky? Commentator desperate for them to score!

    Jobe is no where near a CM either. We ****ed it there in the window. We have literally no one available.

    I swear to god my sky box is going through the window. Have had to reset my internet connection 3 times then on 4th attempt just got to see our penalty taken then it lost my effin router again and by the time I peel myself off the ceiling and connect back up it is 1-1

    Ba is suddenly looking such a smooth dribbler. Less hectic than before. Nice to see

    Ba & Burstow not in this game at all.

    We have to sort out the midfield pronto though

    Absolutely smashing us to pieces. If we get to half time it's a freak really. They have had so many changes and final third opportunities.

    Was just thinking there he needs to come off he’s been dreadful but there’s only Aouchiche on the bench and he’s not a CM. No idea why he’s not playing in front of the back 4, it can’t be any worse than running round like a headless chicken and chasing shadows in their half.

    Burstow not strong enough holding up the line so far, early days of course, but we really need someone to help drag the team up the pitch

    Honestly if we go in 1-1 and if this ends a draw it’s been a good result.

    Need a half time rejig for me. Jobe a bit off it tonight. Hume struggling a lot. Adil, Roberts might be the answer at half time, for jobe and ba.

    Oh I know. But he hasn’t congratulated anything we’ve done, pass from O’Nien was top class to Clarke earlier, lovely skill from Ba to make room for his shot, it’s a wild effort. Szmodics just walloped one in the crowd and it wasn’t wild, it was running out if space.

    We have no one else. Literally. That was my main think when the window closes. Incredible we didn't sort it. One knock and that was it.
