Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Blackburn 1-1 Chelsea After a dodgy start, Rovers really competed against an under par Chelsea team, and may even have won. There were 4 things to really note: 1. El Hadji Diouf scored after doing precisely fuck all up to then. 2. Chelsea have no full backs and therefore no width since Ivanovich was injured, joining Cole and Bosingwa. 3. Phil Jones had an immense debut and kept Anelka and Drogba in his pocket. Not bad for an 18 year old. 4. Robbie Savage was entertaining as a pundit. The perfect antidote to listening to Alan Green whiny bollocks at the Man Utd game. How many times did Savage say "when I was here under Sparky..."? I was starting to think it was some sort of challenge for Sports Relief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was very close to Hughes, which is probably why he fell out with Toshack. Another win, 2-1 against Big Club (Birmingham). Sets us up nicely for Sunday.

We still have a section who hate him, say his football is awful, he is the worst manager ever etc., but the mjority say whilst the football is not exactly Barcelona, the results more than make up for it. That former group will never be happy, but never say who'd they'd replace him with, and just criticise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney 0 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Has he tried to play for a point away from home to the worst team in the league yet? If he's getting you wins and moving up the table though, then great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Castell 0 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 (edited) Which team do you mean Barney? We play Portsmouth on the 3rd, and then we finish with quite a few scary games in the run in. Whilst I wish we could have Messi, Rooney etc. and play great football, but a club in our position can't really expect that in a million years and results are the most important thing.

Guest alex Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 (edited) He's on about Derby County in 07-08. They were bottom and he went there looking for a draw and we lost. It was their sole league win that season I think. Edited March 25, 2010 by alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Alex is right. That was the biggest problem-the absurd negative tactics whilst playing dross opposition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they're (statistically at the very least) the worst team in the history of the PL. The daftest thing about the tactics we employed under Allardyce was that the side we had was far better going forward than it was at defending anyway. Also, I remember going to Fulham away and it must be the most boring match I've ever attended. I can't think of one that was less interesting anyway.

OTF 6272 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 He's on about Derby County in 07-08. They were bottom and he went there looking for a draw and we lost. It was their sole league win that season I think. We even gave them a point at St James'. Disgraceful. I still remember that away goal. It was from a long ball from their keeper that none of our defenders got to. Consequently it bounced and that bint of a forward Miller smashed the ball into the back of the net on the volley. Horrible horrible game. I think it was Viduka who partially spared our blushes scoring the late equaliser (and possibly our first) in the return match which finished 2-2.
