Match Thread Blackburn 1-0 Everton. Sat July 19th 3pm.

I’ve always found these games weird. For other clubs as well. It’s supposed to be about getting the match fitness you just can’t get from training, but everyone then saunters around with zero intensity. A chance for fringe players to raise the mangers eyebrow, and half the players look bored to tears and would rather still be on hols.

It’s not us it’s most PL clubs. Would be quite novel if a manager went against the grain and demanded the team destroys all weaker opposition and goes undefeated.

Scorelines are irrelevant. But top sportsmen/women would surely rather go into a season battering everyone.

Weird. Don’t even make much money out of it as no TV.

Always wondered how a season would start like if all 20 teams didn’t play a single pre season match

Blackburn look a well-coached team on the press, we're doing some nice things but really lack a bit of quality

People laughed at their sodden sheets, but I tell you what, they’re NOT laughing now!

Actually I find the whole thing highly amusing, personally.

 

[Ducans elbow]

Let’s have a decent corner

Who’s the wool on the comms?

Graham Stuart isn't it?

They are in the mud looking up at the bed wetter soldiers wearing adult Pampers

 

[Kirkles]

Can we sell Patterson at half time ?

McNeil wouldn't get in this Blackburn team

He's looked off it

 

[Zatara]

Graham Stuart isn't it?

Those portuguese lessons have really paid off

 

[Vaughan]

It’s just nice to see an actual footballer playing there!

why do i get the feeling that in his ideal world Moyes would still rather have doucoure there?

getting really worried as well that no one’s offered him a deal yet … waiting for him and Harrison to be swooped for on deadline day with no one signed at cm or rw

I'm sure JJ is taking the pee, literally.

Was off it all Accrington game to be fair.

Why do you have an agenda against crap players?
