* The Unofficial "Official" Boro v Blackburn Rovers Match-Day Thread *

This is what happens when you put a chest beater in charge

Should never put Leo in this position.

Gibson's footballing judgement again.

Doesn't fill you with much hope he'll get the full appointment right.

 

[NeilInFrance]

Have to switch back to more attacking formation

 

[Chappy112]

Steffen has been class.

 

[Otto42]

Would be five or six if it wasn’t for the keeper

 

[NeilInFrance]

Did they forget Gallagher in prep?

Was just thinking the same.

I'm expecting an awful appointment which goes badly wrong. Anything else will be a bonus......

 

[FatCat]

Bring the kids in and play them, this lot are spineless and pathetic, do they have no professional pride!! Relegation fodder!

 

[Ironops]

Should be 442

Giles and Jones as wingers, Akpom and Muniz up front, Howson and crooks in the middle, Bola and Smith as full backs, Fry and Clarke at CB

 

[BiggEggo]

Seems wilder was over performing with this set of players after all, we’ve gone from competing in games to looking like fodder

I wouldn't go that far.
New boss, with a bit of nous will get these reprobates to mid tabe.
Formation is shambolic- start right there.

diksteel at rb for me

 

[UTB70]

Get roy keane in. Absolutely rank

 

[sambaDTR]

Looks like we need Warnock back to keep us up.

 

[Chutney]

Stream I'm watching has the Blackburn commentary. They've pointed out three or four perfectly valid points about the problems with our set up based on seeing 40 minutes.

 

[allied_assault]

Crooks needs come off
Too slow

 

[dooderooni]

Steffan said it all with one look after Gallagher had that free header.
This team has relegation written all over it. I said it was borderline negligent to go with the midfield personnel we have and so it is proving.

 

[TeaCider]

Only player coming out of this with any credit is Steffen.

 

[Laughing]

There is a certain paralysis at the club. The players are afraid of making a mistake so do nothing. The management team are scared of any deciding at all so do nothing. Leo seems to be setting the stage for the excuse that he was just keeping things wilder waiting for a new manager.

 

[skazza]

Get in.

 

[Laughing]

Only player coming out of this with any credit is Steffen.

He has been fanatastic today.

 

[allied_assault]

Only player coming out of this with any credit is Steffen.

And Watmore
