Great half for us against Hudders, need to continue banging goals in whilst we can.

You've got to be feeling bit more positive with that half Andy? (sorry town just scored!)
Byram injured again so could be a bug loss? He's good at this level, when not crocked.
See we've signed Adam Forshaw for 12 + 12 option, know nothing about him.

Excellent! All is forgiven for those horrible lads who didn’t want to play

Forshaw weird one. If you can keep him fit he will be great. He seemed to reject our contract offer as he was off to Saudi Arabia! Was surprised to see him sign.

Byram will be a loss as he’s been great

Yes, another good result. 4 games, 4 wins.

Wharton (Blackburn) is a class act, big future

Blackburn sure has a good academy, even 3 of the big England women's players came through there. No idea if the players are products of the academy or Blackburn has decent scouts, but certainly doing something right.

5 lads that came through the academy starting today.

Not sure what happened to Saints to be tonked 4-0 at Sunderland, but I'll take it. Hopefully gives us a chance to nudge another few pints ahead of a big team.
edit: now 5-0

mysticsniper · 2 Sep 2023 at 16:08

I knew Hull will be a tough test for us. We need to push forward in the 2nd half.

JamesH85 · 2 Sep 2023 at 16:46

Carrick gonna take Boro down with that squad. Horrendous compared to last season's.

This aged well

A brilliant half for us down at Southampton. Hope Dewsbury Hall is OK to continue.

We should put them to the sword in the 2nd half.

Should be game over. Why didnt he pass!!

And now it is over

Went to Southampton vs Leicester last night, utterly dismal performance from Southampton. They won't be getting promoted whilst teams can pass or run through the centre virtually unchallenged.

When we were last in the Championship, we got promoted conceding 46 in 46. We've conceded 16 in 6 now, the team is an absolute shambles defensively and RM seems to insist on playing out from the back so strongly that the players are taking on short passes that just aren't on when we're in a vulnerable position, rather than getting the ball away and regrouping.

Andybtsn · 18 Sep 2023 at 15:44

We have you soon, I'm sure things will be different by that time but yeah it was woeful watching on Friday.

We were good yesterday, when the attack is on song it should be comfortably the best in the league. Gutted about Djed Spence, 2 months out

Droolinggimp · 19 Sep 2023 at 06:48

I have been keeping a eye on Wrexham and Notts County after their 100+ points race last season. I'm wondering if they will end up battling it out again for 1st and 2nd place again. Both seem to be doing well so far.

Leeds have just destroyed Watford.

Rutter was incredible!

McBain · 23 Sep 2023 at 17:10

Anyone fancy donning a pair of keeper gloves and having a game for Blackburn? You couldn’t be any worse than our keeper.

Kenai · 23 Sep 2023 at 17:11

I think Russell Martin has just used up whatever little goodwill was still left in the Southampton fanbase.

No comment.
