its not always better, depends who you beat and who you lose to..... losing to Sheffield Wednesday at home for example and beating Bristol at home might mean we have 1 point more, but it would also mean Sheffield Wednesday have 3 more points on us....... Not sure there was very much mroe he could do on Sat against Plymouth to try go for it. You are blinded by your support of Moore. He could have changed formation, pushed the players up, tried to get the players to shoot from range as their keeper looked shite, ask for more bodies in the box. No risks were taken like the majority of his games in charge! Could have gone 442, kept matos on and added wiles who at least tries to play forward (albeit not well). The club did loads of hard work getting people to the game this weekend and I’m not sure they’ll be coming back. The worst thing was he thinks we were positive, he must be blind. You say we have injuries, if we had Rhodes on Saturday I think we win that game. He’s not the answer but it’s pathetic that a club in the championship doesn’t have a striker on the pitch (which is on the club). Hudlin league 2 standard Kian league 1/2 standard Ward can’t keep fit so he’s pointless in this discussion Bojan - unlucky to get injured. Those options aren’t good enough. Dont forget Bergzorg... unless he's out for a long time?? |

Losers attitude. That’s why we are always down there. Moore shows no bravery whatsoever as witnessed by the ridiculous amount of drawn games - win one, lose one is better than 2 draws. its not always better, depends who you beat and who you lose to..... losing to Sheffield Wednesday at home for example and beating Bristol at home might mean we have 1 point more, but it would also mean Sheffield Wednesday have 3 more points on us....... Not sure there was very much mroe he could do on Sat against Plymouth to try go for it. Its called bravery imho though castle. Every time this fella makes a sub we get worse! Thats not just down to limited options......its him not grasping the opportunity and making something happen. Koroma and Thomas arent forwards - they deliver best operating out wide........try rudoni up there and only one striker with the midfield flooded with numbers for 10 minutes.Do something different - right now its making fans eyes bleed. Its dull, pedestrian and unsuccessful as it is. |

The various ways he could’ve attempted to win without exposing us to their counter attacking style have been stated elsewhere but demand imagination and a will to succeed. Picking and choosing who is best to win against (reminder - 3 in 21) is just another iteration of a loser mentality. You are defending the increasingly indefensible. |

Not sure if it’s forbidden in the terms of his loan but Alex Matos has played striker in the past, could’ve moved him up front, or as other have said give Helik a go for the last 10 minutes? There seemed to be a lack of urgency to win the game is what was disappointing for many. |

Blackburn in terrible form.We bear them 3-0 not too long ago.It’s a game to go and win.
Go 4-1-4-1 and press them in their own third when they try play out.

After that insipid performance on Saturday that is me done now with away games until Moore is sacked. I am going to persist with home matches as I have a season ticket and I was thinking of going to both Blackburn and QPR but not now. To pay over fifty quid to just attend both on top of travel costs is just not worth it. I hope fervently my absence helps the team to three points for both games although in reality I suspect we will struggle to get two. I was giving Moore the benefit of the doubt after two uplifting performances against Middlesbrough and Blackburn at home but that on Saturday was a disgrace and the final straw. To use the injuries as an excuse before a ball was kicked was disgusting allied to the fact that we could have recalled Jordan to be a presence up front at the very least. I don't blame Moore for the Jordan Rhodes fiasco but he could have at least tried to move to have him return. By not doing it suggests he is nothing but a puppet and after watching Warnock's unnecessary dismissal for criticising the owner he has decided to take the cowards way out and refrain from stating his true opinion.
On top of that the match on Saturday was a shocking example of so-called match strategy. In the first half it looked like Plymouth were more interested than Town with the criss-crossing of backwards and sideways passing gaining no advantage at all. Then to take off our goal scorer in Koroma after the Chelsea lad was unforgivable. Koroma was our best attacking option up front and only likely scorer and as for Matos's substitution that was clearly linked to Moore's non plan plan of removing him after an hour. Both youth players who came on made Town much weaker all round and undermined any chance of scoring a winner. Diarra has gone backwards since Warnock left and if he is an example of Moore's coaching then it shows that we are heading to League One.

Over the last ten games the form table shows Blackburn next to the bottom on 7 points & Town a few places higher on 10 points, the bookies however have the home side odds on @4/6 & Town @4/1 (draw 3/1)......Relegation odds are Town still 4/6 & Rovers at a tasty 20/1, possibly this seasons Reading?

Blackburn looked very poor at our place, could be a nice little bet at 4/1 and 20/1 for relegation seems mad.

Rovers have a dire recent record, they haven't won a league game since Dec 12th a 2-1 home win v Bristol City.
In 6 league games since then they have managed 1 point, a 2-2 home draw with Rotherham, in those 6 games they have conceded 18 goals and scored 6, they did defeat Cambridge 5-2 in the FA cup.
Surely this is a massive opportunity for Mr Moore to chalk up his 4th win as manager?, he has to approach the game same as he did the home fixture surely?.
Just hope some of the walking wounded are fit to return to the squad.

Just hope some of the walking wounded are fit to return to the squad. Key players in that game Burgzorg and Headley still injured! Could do with someone through the door this week to at the very least give us another option off the bench, at least the new striker should be fit for this one. |

Yeh, a quick look at the BR forum & they are not confident at all, its another relegation match for both who have QPR (BR Feb 3 at home) next in line after this game.......No one at the bottom seems to be able to put a run together to pull away from the danger zone, another draw then!! |

Anyone got any recommendations for parking? Not been in a long time and don't know the area. I park in the Mill Hill area and walk down (live in Preston so know the area). Alternatively as you come off the M65 at junction 4, take the road right into Blackburn, under the motorway then right at the traffic lights (Esso garage on left) and park along there |

I got mine ages ago but just checked & still tickets available. Thought we’d have sold all 2,155 tickets at £20 for a crucial game that’s just over an hour away for most.
Just goes to show what the DM style of football is doing to our crowds
Come on town fans let’s sell out & get behind the lads 🔵⚪️🙌🏼

Just hope some of the walking wounded are fit to return to the squad. Means naff all. We all said Plymouth away record was poor then we played utter crap against them and scraped a draw. Odds usually work better for us when they’re against us. Had Blackburn not lost at home all season we’d probably go and beat them. It’s the Huddersfield Town way. |
