Saxo would love that sort of win.
Not pretty but a dig in and grind out a win.

yea, it was a truly terrible day for football. I went on Sat. Good hard fought win.
The goal was magnificent.
Ben Brereton is the 6th highest paid player at Rovers. Can you believe that?? Crazy.
Ayala and Dack get paid £17,000 per week. Johnson gets £12,000 Sam Gallagher gets paid £8,000 a week.
Brereton is not even in the top 5. He is on under £5,000 a week.
Someone will stroll in Jan and offer to treble his wages and he will be off. Madness as they are so screwed without him.
I could not believe what I was reading.
If that is true,then that truly is madness.
Johnson getting over double what brereton is getting is unbelievable.
Ayala and dack have spent the majority of the time injured but a lad who clearly has worked hard to get where he has is on low wages.
Sure it's still a very very good wage but when you compare to who is on more,then that is crazy.
Offer the lad at least double his wages and hope he signs.
He has a year extension at the end of the season but it won't take much to sway the lad.
He does not appear on the top 5 Blackburn Rovers top earners. I am NOT making this up.Quote:

We could easily survive without Armstrong, he wasn't actually any good. We would be screwed with Brereton.
I would be spending most days trying to get him to sit down and take our offer of making him the highest paid player at the club right here and now if I was Mowbray.
Couldn't agree more.
He and lenihan need to be tied down to a long term contract.
Both are integral to the future of this club.
I feel the real rising star is Wharton. I feel he is better than Lenihan. He makes Lenihan better, and I rate both. I feel the fact he is back, means we have no issue with missing Ayala. I would say that keeping him is also crucial. He is steady and makes a big difference. The really good news is, he has a brother coming through, who is actually rated much higher and is by all accounts, going to be the real star.Quote:

And I feel the gradual introduction through loans, and a slower first team introduction has meant we have a more rounded player. With decent experience. I have to commend Mowbray on that, he has had a huge positive effect on him, and we have benefitted.
I agree fully and can see both lenihan and Wharton being our first choice pairing next season,however getting lenihan to sign is the problem.
