Just been on brfcc myself. Typical overreaction. Virtually full new team and early days. Marathon not a sprint.

A nice heavy defeat would be good. Drain any confidence and get fans even more on their backs.

Yep.
Just checked 'Flash Scores'.
You don't half have to scroll down a long way to get their league.
Change the O/P to 'Rovers Lost'.

It was gonna happen at some point. Walking the league doesn't mean going unbeaten in unprecendented fashion!

The Rovers joke just gets funnier and funnier - Saxo's lame attempts to ingratiate himself on here again just help to amuse us even more.

If Rovers are not prepared to roll their sleeves up and battle they are going to be in for a long hard season.
Took Sheffield United years to get out of div 1. I can see the same fate meeting Rovers who are half the size of blades

Hopefully, Rovers will be "getting out of div.1" by the trap door.

I remember how bad I felt when we lost 1-0 at Southend. I have absolutely no sympathy for the Blackburn fans though!

The second funniest thing I have seen at Southend was Rocky covering himself in non drying paint. The funniest? Do you need to ask...?
