FULL TIME: Huddersfield Town 2 Burnley 0 (From This Is Lancashire)

Jordan Rhodes,Jordan Rhodes,Jordan Rhodes,
Will soon be a Rovers player, giving him the chance of scoring even more goals against D,Dingles :)

Bless! Beaten by a fellow mediocre yarkshah side..... Soon to be relegated dingles are punching well above their weight..... Blue square north is your natural home...

Oh dear. Played 3 - Lost 2. Where´s that runty crock Patterson now, bigging up Eddie Howe as a "top, young manager?" Aside from Peterborough, Burnley are the smallest club in the Championship. This year´s Doncaster - and you´re heading one way........DOWN!

Bunleh........a horrible slum with odious folk.... Always in the shadow of the mighty rovers..... Blackburn, the pride of Lancashire ....

Please someone tell, who are the two guys who do the commentary on Clarets Player?

DELUSIONAL sums them up in one word.

Going back to Tuesdays game 2nd half showing was poor.

Todays game well how would you describe it those of you who managed to get there?

Listening to It we don't seem to have learnt anything or moved on from last season.

Yes we had alot of away wins last term and poor home form but not being disrespectful to Huddersfield Town we shouldn't have been out thought and out played by them.

Everyone know's that you have to be consistent in this league , you also have to turn over teams like Huddersfield Town if your going to be serious challengers for the playoff spots or promotion.

Why have Blackpool been so consistent since they come down ? What have the done different to Burney?

Why have our foes from down the road made avery good start ? When you take into account the number of players they lost and what they managed to pull in. Add that to a manager the fans don't want and the turmoil behind the scenes.

I'd rather have the start they have had than just one good performance against Bolton.

I know It's only 3 games into the season but on this evidence it will still be 34 years and counting against those down the road and a long season spent trying to stay up.

I know I maybe mr grumpy, had some long night shifts but can I have some constructive replies please.

I'll be fine after a good nights sleep ;0).

Cathedral, on evidence of our last two games and at this moment in time I can't argue that point with you :0(.

Bit harsh with the Blue Square North bit though don't you think lol .

Hey Sose , It is a very poor start and there is no argument to your comment at this present time.

Being a football fan I'd rather have had the start like Blackpool and yourselves but if I'm being honest we are where we are at this present time because we deserve to be on the performance of the last two games.

all dingles look up what do you see ...............brfc

Look, I don't want to say I told you so but Eddie Howe has surrounded himself with former bournemouth players, so now you are hitting former bournemouth level. Maybe with the additional money coming from the fletcher move you can buy a decent championship player or get one free and pay good wages, but until you do that, you can ride our shirt tails, YEEEHAAAW.

Goldfinger , thank's for pointing that out It's my bloody keyboard playing up if only that could be said about the team , just playing would be a step in the right direction !!!!

Insane, the money from Fletcher will probably go on another Bournemouth player or a young lad who's a prospect for the future.

At this rate what future grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr lol

Once again the Rovers fans live up to the towns reputation for being premature! It's august and we have played 3 matches (two away).

Thankfully it was only 14000, and half of us didn't turn up for reasons you know very well.
Oh and talking about being premature...What were your lot like after the Bolton game.'

I see the weirdo reckonin' to be a claret then belittling at every opportunity is back.

Tetley get professional help.....

I do seem to recall Dingles on OUR site rejoicing (prematurely) at a 2 point lead over their "elders and betters" 10 miles down the road. Well just one week later :"Ho Ho Ho", "Joy" and "Bliss". How's the temp way down there? Bit chilly maybe? Dingles down, Rovers up!!!

Haha, Burnley Glen-moron! Nice of you to pipe up. This guy´s the bitterest of ALL Dingles. I know....quite a fete. Wake up and smell the coffee, Glen-MORON - your manager, ground, town and support are all lower league standard. Now run-along - there´s a good chap. Your Lancashire rivals are celebrating and laughing AT you.......not WITH you. Howe´s ´Bourne-ly´ - what a joke. Hahahahaha!!!!

Midas is an anagram of 'I'm sad' which is understandable considering you follow Bonleh. Always in our shadow dingle boy.

All Rhodes lead to Ewood.

RTID!!!!!!!

Out in Burnley...or Northern Ireland? I don´t know which sounds more depressing. No wonder you´ve developed a good sense of humour (allegedly) ;)

After the first game dingles give rovers sh1t well now it's our turn. Burnley18th and rovers 3rd, power has now been restored. Up the rovers and down the dingles

Bolton, Blackburn and Blackpool all looking down on crappy Dingles. Like a flabby boxer - you´ve punched yourself out in the opening round - become overly cocky - and now you´re FINISHED! It´s all downhill from now cousin-kissers - get ready for some serious ****-kickings. Oh well - at least you´ll be back where you belong next season - Division 1 with PNE. More your level... HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

NOBHEAD, my comments are tongue in cheek and remember i said constructive replies.

Obviously if your happy with the start and the way we have played for the lat two matches then you are as delusional as the pair on clarets player.

By the way i would have been a little more polite had you not insulted me thinkng I'm that idiot tetley.

Now grow up and talk football.

Oh and by the way i never belittled anything .

We all have opinions and we are all different so opinions differ.

You are obviously very happy with the way we played today and the 2nd half Tuesday night.

If you are then fine that's your opinion so we can agree to disagree but please be adult about it.

It is early days yet but there was always going to be that niggling little feeling that we could not repeat this season away from home what we achieved last season. Blaiming wonder strikes when players should have been closed down is not very professional and regards Rhodes goal, there were a number of Clarets players whoi seemed to be stood watching him. I'm still not sure about Edger in defence. What has Michael Duff done wrong? Regarding the bench yesterday, if I was Alex McDonald I'd be out of the club like a flash cause it is obvious that he's only on the bench to make the numbers up. Three home games next up and if we can get three wins out of three then the table will look a little bit better. But hey guys let's remember it is only August and let's remember where we were under Judas in September the season the Clarets reached the dizzy heights of the Premiership.

I know the stick clarets are getting is just payback for the endless stuff weve had to skim over but Im a realistic Rovers fan and this banter is going to swing to and fro. Youve had two away games, weve had two home. I personally thought Bolton were awfully poor in that first game. I think weve been poor in all three of our games. We have a good squad by championship standards and with a decent manager would stand a good chance of promotion but with Kean??? As for the attendance at Ewood, as somebody has said, there are too many there. Non attendance is a strategy and not a disinterest. There is a clear difference

Merlin nice to have a constructive reply.

I know away games will be tuff to pick up points especially after last seasons results on are travels.

Home form will be very important this season but so is picking up points on our travels to teams like Huddersfield , once again no disrespect to them, If the team is to make a serious challenge.

Haven't noticed your home attendance figures but like you say there are reasons for that.

Every team at some stage will lose, a few teams will have a bad run.

I don't like losing who does but It's the manor in which you lose that make things worse. Give as good as you get but end up a loser then fine but to lose by putting in a poor performance his hurtful. I know a team can have an off day but we seem to have so many.

Your team may have been poor as you say in the 3 games you have played but you have 7 points from 9 .

That shows that when you do have an off day you manage to take a point at least and a bonus a cheeky win.

I know what you mean about points but im not convinced it will continue at Rovers. im one of the stay away fans after over 30 years, cant take anymore of Keans antics so Iv only watched on internet but weve been lucky. Its all trial and error and guesswork with Kean. He is a lying little toad. Our attendances are between 13,000 - 14,000 including away fan. Thats about 8000 or more down. More than what you expect to lose purely through relegation. This is a long tough league and hard to escape from and there isnt as big a gap between the clubs. We would stand a better chance with a different manager.

dingles just fooking take it like you give it large to us rovers all pre season & after one match v bolton ... you are fookin **** and you know u r...lol

Merlin , how has that guy managed to stay in place.

Are the owners and board members too scared to take action?

It's not good all round financially not getting the fans through the turnstiles, high wages and you can't use the parachute payment to compensate such a big loss .

We can only summise and guess at why they have stuck with Kean but we think the Raos are divided in their view and Mrs D has the deciding vote. She appears to be the one fixed on him. He has also been self assured of his job, never nervous and very cocky so I and most others think that he knows his job is secure. We suspect it is due to factors nothing to do with football results. Could be he has some shares through his contractual agreement or some arrangment with his agent and Venkys advisor (name cannot be mentioned). I think it is a combination of a number of things like that, lots of shannigans by incompetent amateurs, all wheeling and dealing. Maybe he knows too much? It will all come out in the future but maybe too late. Its a tough decison whether you go with your club and team or whether you go with Venkys club and manager and his team and condone their disgraceful behahaviour so far

Are the owners and board members too scared to take action?

It's not good all round financially not getting the fans through the turnstiles, high wages and you can't use the parachute payment to compensate such a big loss .

We can only summise and guess at why they have stuck with Kean but we think the Raos are divided in their view and Mrs D has the deciding vote. She appears to be the one fixed on him. He has also been self assured of his job, never nervous and very cocky so I and most others think that he knows his job is secure. We suspect it is due to factors nothing to do with football results. Could be he has some shares through his contractual agreement or some arrangment with his agent and Venkys advisor (name cannot be mentioned). I think it is a combination of a number of things like that, lots of shannigans by incompetent amateurs, all wheeling and dealing. Maybe he knows too much? It will all come out in the future but maybe too late. Its a tough decison whether you go with your club and team or whether you go with Venkys club and manager and his team and condone their disgraceful behahaviour so far

Merlin, JW must be turning In his grave watching what there doing to the club that was In his blood.

Lets hope both our clubs have a good season and I for one will love the up and coming derby games I just wish they would come around more often and maybe continue one day back in the Premiership , be lucky chap.
