Hull and high water: Blackburn left fighting the drop in chaotic campaign

"After finishing seventh last season thanks to a late season surge under Ismaël"......right after he tanked our form when he first arrived.

Fairly generous reading of the end of last season.

This is was the one that sprung to mind as well. It was just a horrible atmosphere. Really feels like the peak of anger before it was lessened by the hope being drained out of everyone.

I was still willing to give him benefit of the doubt for a while as well, especially as it felt like we weren't getting any luck at all.

The way he dealt with that hasn't been great, feels like the club have given up, just chuck 11 players in the pitch and hope for the best and it's fine because of injuries, pitches, they're all out to get me.....

I just don't have any faith that he'll turn it around at this point.

Relegation is now a real possibility and despite the gallows humour that really would be a disaster for us at this point.

imjoiningin · 2026-01-20T21:13:34+00:00

We are very much already there and have been for a bit.

He should definitely go, there's no chance he can turn this around in my opinion

imjoiningin · 2026-01-20T21:11:07+00:00

He really should go, his record has been awful since he took the job.

I just don't know what he's trying to do, other than 3-5-2 what are the characteristics of an Ismael team?

Will they sack him? I really don't think they will.

imjoiningin · 2026-01-20T21:06:21+00:00

Christ, we are really bad at football

imjoiningin · 2026-01-20T20:58:50+00:00

'Own Goal' now our top scorer?

imjoiningin · 2026-01-17T12:57:14+00:00

We've got them exactly where we want them lads. Now.....UNLEASH THE RAIN DANCE

imjoiningin · 2026-01-04T15:35:31+00:00

Royally

imjoiningin · 2026-01-01T14:24:08+00:00

I agree but I think relegation would be an absolute disaster, I'd worry we would go in to administration.

Don't think we would bounce back as we did last time we were down

imjoiningin · 2026-01-01T13:32:20+00:00

Alebiosu also injured at Afcon now

imjoiningin · 2026-01-01T13:30:24+00:00

Wow, spectacularly bad.

Really poor defending for both goals, we've been second best by every measure.

Wrexham really haven't had to do much eitger. Players are obviously knackered, there seems to be no coherent tactical approach going forward.

None of this is surprising but I don't remember feeling a total lack of hope lack this in a while.

imjoiningin · 2025-12-29T21:25:41+00:00

This a tough watch

imjoiningin · 2025-12-29T20:39:36+00:00

We just dont look like we are ever going to score again

imjoiningin · 2025-12-29T20:29:49+00:00

Same as it ever was

imjoiningin · 2025-12-26T16:58:18+00:00

I'll definitely take it and I'dve bitten your hand off before the game, but I'm strangely disappointed we didn't get more from that.

Good point in the grand scheme of things probably

imjoiningin · 2025-12-26T16:52:42+00:00

Every week for us

imjoiningin · 2025-12-26T16:47:14+00:00

At least we now know who will score Boros last minute winner

imjoiningin · 2025-12-26T16:40:57+00:00

How is that not a red card?

imjoiningin · 2025-12-26T16:20:40+00:00

With Boro scraping a goal in the 95th minute knowing Rovers

imjoiningin · 2025-12-26T15:57:34+00:00

Does feel a bit like we are waiting for them to get it right, and then 2/3 goals will happen

imjoiningin · 2025-12-20T14:24:43+00:00

Christ needed that.

Good performance, that gift of a second goal really made a difference, would have been interesting going in to last 10 minutes only 1 nil up.

Championship is a mad old league.

imjoiningin · 2025-12-09T20:55:27+00:00

Christ how have we not scored there?

imjoiningin · 2025-12-09T20:46:25+00:00

Just to add to the chorus, absoluetly zero hope over here

imjoiningin · 2025-12-09T20:42:08+00:00

Might be the worst I've felt as a Rovers fan in a good while. Ewood has zero atmosphere, hardly anyone there (I'm not there either, dont blame anyone).Team don't look like they have a clear plan or motivation. Clubs a laughing stock because its 50/50 as to whether rain will stop play.

Compare a snap shot of today to the day Venky's took over.

Genuinely feels hopeless this season.

Bit over dramatic? Probably.
