Jason Perry isn't very happy. Having a go at the board, fair enough

Re: BLACKBURN ROVERS v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread

It’s been coming, a thrashing like this, the 1-0 defeats were softening us up it seems. It’s not being trigger happy wanting a change of manager, it’s common sense I think. We’ve stumbled to a few wins but the writing has been on the wall. The squad looks shot to bits and a ‘different direction’ boost would be for the best now rather prolonging the agony, we’ve been ‘worked out’ and nullified by other coaching staffs. To be honest you didn’t need to be Pep to work us out and the season is young enough to take a punt on a change.

Massive problem though is the brilliant football minds at the top

All you need to prepare for our games is to have your 2 Centre halves heading practice and a lively striker. Job done.

The sad thing is that this post could have been written at about three different times in the last 12 months. We need a massive clear out of the squad at the end of this season.

With the acknowledgement that it will take 2-3 seasons to get a manager and squad of players who will buy into football that is played for the majority of time on the floor, i quite like the look of Colwill as a player, who wants to play ground based football, but for a young lad he does seems a bit porky and unfit, not seen him live so maybe the TV isn't kind. I've seen the majority off games on I Follow this season and the opposition teams appear to break quicker than us, press harder and get back into position quickly ,although that may be because we go forward so slowly!!, imagine those having used 8-10 gallons of petrol to go and watch that today!!!

West Brom (home)

Reading (home)

International break

Swansea (away) 17th October

Fulham (away) 20th October

Middlesbrough (home)

4 points from those fixtures? Not looking good, at all.

There is potential for a lot of positives to come from this season but turning potential into reality seems a long way off at the moment.

What do you do though? We have the opportunity to have a really good summer ahead of us but if we're rushing a managerial change mid-season then that is less likely as well.

Got to believe that this is as bad as it gets this year and that the next three games are favourable match-ups. If we can stick together and some of these very experienced professionals want to roll up their sleeves - players and managerial staff.

....and add on the cost of the M6 Toll. Could have invested in toilet rolls, instead.

You keep spouting this nonsense. You don't seem to have realised it's September.

Give it to Dai Hunt until the end of the season

He’s pitching as we speak on Call Rob

In terms of my prediction (there's things to look forward to but not necessarily this season) and your prediction (apart from top four, there's no one better than Cardiff) mine seems a bit closer to being accurate.

International break aren’t up to much these days. We could sneak a point off them.

3 off the Jacks and one from anywhere else (Boro, preferably).

I believed most teams at this level this season would struggle to cope with City's prehistoric, physical football. I was hopelessly wrong. The season is already turning into an embarrassment for McCarthy and his band of not so merry men.

Meanwhile, your 'predictions' are just pie-in-the sky gibberish. You seem to be labouring under the illusion that Tan and Co have some sort of grand plan when that so obviously isn't the case. Meanwhile, the notion that the current crop of youngsters are some sort of golden generation is fanciful at best.
