FULL TIME: Huddersfield Town 2 Blackburn Rovers 2
9:45pm Tuesday 6th November 2012 in Sport
LEE Novak’s last-ditch equaliser denied Henning Berg his first win as Blackburn Rovers boss as Huddersfield Town claimed a point at the John Smith’s Stadium tonight.
Jordan Rhodes and Danny Murphy had netted as Rovers came from behind to lead 2-1, but Novak levelled deep into stoppage time.
Rovers almost took the lead after only 25 seconds when Huddersfield keeper Alex Smithies made a fine save to deny Ruben Rochina.
But it was the hosts who went ahead in the 15th minute at Novak found the net.
Rhodes hit back in the 43rd minute, though, on his return to the John Smith’s Stadium – just over two months after his £8m move to Rovers – as he ran on to Rochina’s pass and fired past Smithies.
And Murphy put Rovers 2-1 in front 10 minutes after half time as he sent Smithies the wrong way from the penalty spot after Markus Olsson had been fouled as he surged into the box.
Novak, though, equaliser for Huddersfield in injury time as he bundled the ball past Paul Robinson.
Rovers: Paul Robinson; Adam Henley, Scott Dann, Grant Hanley, Martin Olsson; Mauro Formica (Diogo Rosado 82), Danny Murphy, Dickson Etuhu, Markus Olsson; Ruben Rochina (Simon Vukcevic 78); Jordan Rhodes. Subs not used: Jake Kean, Bradley Orr, Bruno Ribeiro, Morten Gamst Pedersen, Raheem Hanley.

Ok we conceded a late goal yet again, but so many positives
Berg directing from the side line, positive substitutions which saw us attacking at the end of the game instead of sitting deep for the entire second half.
Still a lot of work to be done of course, Etuhu and Murphy are still poor and invite pressure onto a very shaky defence; Dann is poor even at this level
However I think Berg will sort it, fitness levels need to improve and so does concentration
But that said, a lot to like already about Mr Berg, promising

Palace was an expected loss, as they are on fire, and boro outplayed us, but that's about it, and those 2, top the table, so it aint all that bad
But Henning get some fresh legs in that midfield, dicko and murphy can't last the pace

Decent result in the run of things, all you armchair fitness experts should note it was scored in the 95th minute, more concentration than fitness methinks
Berg is making a difference , give him time but then most of these posts are from Trolls not fans as always but I am working on it...

ROCHINA - He played his best game in a Rovers shirt - creative, skilful, did not lose posession cheaply, tracked back, looked a threat every time on ball, still needs to improve his decision making though ...
MURPHY / ETUHU - You would not get in my 5 a side team. You are both AWFUL. Danny DO NOT KISS THE BADGE AGAIN you Kean loving traiter !!!. You play 10 yard passes to each other / lose the ball in dangerous areas / do not track back / moan at others when you need to sort your own games out ...
DANN - you are a LEGEND IN YOUR OWN INTERVIEWS - not on the pitch. You conceded a goal at Palace by not picking up. You conceeded a mindless free kick tonight for the Hudds goal. Your own players know you were never a £6million buy - you are WEAK / cannot deal with headers / cannot manage a defensive line / do not deserve to play for my club.
I am sure Henning will sack you as soon as he can.....
We need to be winning games like this, and closing a lead out ... Senior Pros this falls on you ..
Great to see & feel the ROVERS FANS chanting & cheering their team on again tonight .. Its been too long we have been forced to put up with crap management and our only course of action was to shout against the club ...

I know we only got a point but its football and we were just unlucky.
I think Rochina played well, the best this season and he'll improve.
Central midfield is where we lose matches as have old players playing for us.
I am not a fan of Etuhu /Murphy but then again we have not got any better at the club.
I think the manger has still a lot of work to do and obviously it will take time as he has to find out about the capabilities of the players already at the club.
I really do feel we need a midfielder, actually 2 central midfielders as we ain't got any that deserve to play there......!!! or are too old or past it.....!!
We need central midfielders as we are really poor in this area at BRFC. We need players who can boss the center of the park and provide link up with the strikers who is also energetic and that means young and able to last 90 minutes.
We will need to replace all the oldies sooner rather then later but of course we need to keep the elder players as we need the experienced players to provide balance for the younger lads.
I think we will start winning sooner rather then later as i have hope and expect from the current team selection.
I think we can look forward to collecting 3 points regularly in the near future with the current team selection.
I saw many positives from out performance today.
Young players are the future and although we need players like Dunny, Murphy and Etuhu, Pederson in the squad, I would rather have energetic younger players especially in the midfield as it can be fast and players need to last the full 90 minutes
I think Pederson should get a chance in the center sooner with Etuhu or Murtphy as I still think Etuhu / Murphy are slow and past it.
Hence we really have not got any players capable of doing the job that is required in the centre of the park.
In fact I think this is where we are losing games, we simply have not got strong enough players to boss the center of the field of play.
Ultimately we need young midfielders who can be the generals who can boss the play and control the games. we clearly don't have a leader on the field.
I would recommend to buy a central midfielder, a fast winger and a big striker to play alongside Rhodes.
Obviously the defense could do with an additional member as Orr is cxxx.
anyways what do you think...????

ok...
We need someone like David Batty and Tim Sherwood
to boss the center of the park and dictate play.
I would urge all fans to look out for special talented midfielders in the football league as we clearly need some midfielders who can emulate Batty / Sherwood

Performance wise I can understand the confusion, but the result was there for the taking after conquering the onslaught given by those Terriers and their hard ball approach.
At least 3 times we had the chance in those last dying minutes to keep the ball well away from the onion bag, but our CLASS did not shine through along with some composure emitting from a LEADER on the pitch !
I'm gonna lay the blame firmly at the door of Robbo tonight, as I believe his two major mistakes or lack of commanding his area allowed the goals. He should of been all over that ball for the first(IMO) considering he his the only one allowed to touch with hos hands. Strangely, when he decided to attempt just that he f....d it right up culminating in the 94th and 56 seconds goal !
Absolutely sickening, but that said the terriers deserved the equalizer if purely through the tenacity to play to the final whistle, unlike our boy's who couldn't smell the triumph, as we could on the terraces - regardless of the performance.
Berg as every right to be peeved over this and i believe he his considering his remarks on the BBC sport website.
The odious one as much to answer for with his preposterous signings that lack steel and the determination to see out a game such as that tonight.
Rochina was quality, for me tonight, but from his direct shooting in the first half to beating around the bush in and around the area in the 2nd cost us the chance to score more goals. Even before they scored the graveyard shift goal we had 3 good chances to hit the target, but faffing around put paid to that.
One thing I will say here to the detriment of the Terriers is that they lived up to their name quite shockingly tonight with little or no protection from the poor ref.
This scenario of tonight conceding such a late, late goal must be nipped in the bud and the likes of the fallen hero should be busting his gonads in drumming that into the heads of those players !
Berg will be livid and he must act in showing them it is not acceptable if we are to have any chance of achieving promotion at the first attempt ?
I believe he will get it right, but he must install that mentality and quickly.
A sickener overall, but the green shoots of Berg can be seen in small doses. Here is to him getting it right and steadying the good ship Ewood. Great turn out from the fans tonight all in good voice :)

Murphy had probably his best game especially in the second half, I thought he recycled the ball really well towards the end of the game and controlled the midfield.
The starting lineup was almost perfect. We have been crying out for that team to play together for a long time but neither Kean nor Black made the realisation. Formica and Ollson supporting a higher up Rochina made the difference.
Rochina seems to be getting over himself a little now and actually passing the ball instead of shooting at the first chance. Vucevic looked deadly in his brief cameo, i'm still perplexed asto why he isnt played more often especially since we don't have a right winger other than him. You could argue Rosados introduction was lethal since a poor pass from him ultimately led to thier equalizer, although he may have a future.
You could really tell CKR wasn't playing tonight since we didnt have too many shots from 40 yards and we didnt have snail pace build up. For me CKR is no where near good enough, we don't have the type of team which supports lazy, greedy, slow, unintelligent frontmen.
For me the way forward for Rovers is the stylish 'beat-a-man' approach and the best players for doing that were playing tonight (apart from Nuno Gomez). I would like to see either Murphy or Etuhu make way for a permenant role for Rohina when Best/Goodwillie return so that we can play 2 up top with 1 in the hole.
Amazing travelling support tonight, I like how Berg gets his blue n white army chant straight away and yet Kean never earned that in 2 years, just shows how useless he was.
If we pick that team on Saturday we should walk the three points. Berg just needs to drill into them "KEEP SCORING WHEN WE GO INTO THE LEAD" and we'll be alright.

This is football, only win matters and get the correct player for next match.
If u want fans to cheer, u have to get goals, never allow to go deep, deep.
rochina need to improve with his shoot on target and angle. he need more consentration than runing around. he played better with respect to other matchs.
How many matches we loose in this championship like this in the last couple of mts with the same team members, Lazy .....lazy .... defence.

There's still a lot in the background that stinks about the club and not everyone has the stomach to put up with it.
It'll take a long time to win back the fans that have been lost due to the diabolical way things have been handled this last two years.
It took years and years of hard work to get Rovers where they were, only to be ripped apart by these fools who now run the club.
Those fans won't be returning soon, if ever whilst Venkeys are still here.

You should have applied for the job.
Yes we continue to give away daft goals in the last couple of minutes, but we did that throughout Kean's sad reign and that of Lardarse before him if I remember correctly.
The confidence of the players is fragile at best, most of them haven't recovered from the week in week out stuffing they were getting the last two seasons, and relegation doesn't only hurt the fans.
But it was good to see Murphy's reaction when he slotted home the penalty, more of that to come I hope.
What we do need is a Robbie Savage type midfielder to break up play, we have too many show ponies and not enough miners, and I am pretty sure Henning will be picking up on this.
Premier League players are pretty useless in this division because they come in thinking they are better, that's why relegated PL teams nearly always struggle in the early part of the season.
We need players who will get us into the PL, not more show ponies.

OK we squandered a 2-1 lead with 30 seconds left but I think we can put that down to Rosado's inexperience at this level, Maybe Robbo could have done a little better and maybe Dann could have cleared the initial header - but he didn't and they scored.
Aside from that I thought Murphy looked a lot better after his goal and actually started passing forwards once he scored - Maybe he will start coming good after a little bit of confidence, certainly liked his celebration as it showed a lot of passion, Lots of plusses in Rochina, Simon, Rosado (Bambi!), And of course we know how good Rhodes is. All in all I would have taken a point before the game so to walk away with one when all said and done isn't the worst thing! berg seems to realise we need to make better decisions in the final third and I hope he addresses this, Sure he will in the next few games!
Finally to all them doom and gloom folk on here - Please don't bother coming and booing players on Saturday we don't need it! Get behind them, 3 points and we're right back in the mix!

Game 1 = 0 points
Had little time to influence things in training prior to game. Playing form side of the Division. Learnt a great deal and blooded some new talent in Henley.
Game 2 = 1 point
Progress. Not a loss. Judge Berg's reign from this game. Stil early days and plenty of room for improvement according to fans who were there AND also some positives at long last and the sense of some HOPE AND BELIEF for a change!
The Jury is out on Berg...but so far he appears to be building a case for his defence (no pun intended!) that could ultimately stick. I hope in the end he proves his doubters wrong and a unanimous verdict is passed in his favour and we can get back to being united once more.
Give the guy a chance!

And I wasn't telling fibs, I actually saw him still rolling down the hard shoulder of the westbound M62 as I passed the junction for Saddleworth!
Why would a dingle go to the Hudds v Rovers natch then ?

There are a lot of people in Blackburn who won't forgive Venkeys for what they have done, so won't go back whilst they are there. They have every right...I'm not one of those.
I'm just waiting until we do start playing well...and then.
COYB.

We say Rovers Til I Die and Come On You Blues to show our passion for our club.
You say "Up the Clarets" as if you were wanting to rectally examine them (which you probably would).
Turd Burglars.. suits you.

Pain in the Claret.
You Clarethole!
and
Kiss my hairy Claret..
as Up the Claret obviously means up the rectum.

You dingles should to go back to your own article and argue with whichever rover was sad enough to comment there rather than jumping on ours because no-one else will to talk to you.
Between you zealous knuckle draggers and the conspiracy loving loons,on-topic debates lvely debates are few and far between and frankly I'd rather be reading sensible posts from actual rovers fans.

If that's an improvement then you lot really are fcuk'd this season.
Oh and that away end I reckon holds about 4000 and you brought just under 2 for a 35 mile journey, I see the boycotters are still staying away from the away matches too. Great support there lads.

The pompus Rovers, how we all laugh at the bleating, the "boycott", the excuse, what means so much to us is the Schadenfreude and it gets better every day. We revel in it, we gloryfy in it, we share the joy with fans around the country as we all laugh at Rovers, how miserable they are, how they squirm and slither through the cess pit of their own making.
.
but hey ho lads, its only football :-)

You need Rovers because we make your world go around. A world of bitter and twisted hatred born out of frustration at being second best.
Easily pleased gobsh1tes the lot of you.....
Oh and please please don't stop posting on here, some Rovers fans may not like it but just I love to read the poison hatred that oozes through in your posts, it's foooookin hilarious.... and you're all the same. Every last one of you.
At least you've got 'claretsmad' I suppose to discuss all things Rovers.... how very apt because you're all mad aren't you? Mad at failure I suspect. Or lack of ambition. Or both.... Just ask Eddie! Charlies next.
Big kisses Midas you filthy slug and try harder next time x x x x

I purchased my Season Ticket as I am ( was ) a true supporter of the club and genuinely believed that even if SK were unable to turn the club around, there would be a solid plan B.
Unfortunately I had not forseen the ridiculous appointment of Shebby the Snake or plan B becoming Plan Berg.
I can assure you that I am no Glory Hunter..............
.....there is little prospect of further glory at Ewood. All I am looking for is a club, a team and a manager that I can pledge genuine allegiance to and know, in return, that they are all as committed as most of the genuine fans are.
The weather forecast for Saturday is not looking great by the way!
