FULL TIME: Blackburn Rovers 1 Charlton 2
4:53pm Saturday 19th January 2013 in Football
By Andy Cryer, Blackburn Rovers reporter
MICHAEL Appleton's Blackburn Rovers reign has started in defeat after seeing his side's four match unbeaten run ended by a miserable 2-1 home defeat to Charlton.
Watched by owners Venky's, until they left on 65 minutes, Rovers struggled to break down their visitors as Charlton secured a deserved victory.
Jordan Rhodes cancelled out Dale Stephens' first half opener but Yann Kermorgant's second half header was enough to seal maximum points for the Addicks.
Rovers started slowly and, bar a driving run from Ruben Rochina, struggled to hurt Charlton's defence.
The visitors were passing the ball around well and took a deserved lead on 26 minutes after a good run from Chris Solly.
Solly raced past Colin Kazim-Richards on the right and, after his low cross was half cleared, Dale Stephens was on hand to brilliantly fire the loose ball into the top corner.
Rovers fans had little to shout about in the opening 45 minutes with Kazim Richards' header straight at goalkeeper Ben Hamer the closest they came.
Rovers were level just three minutes after the restart. Kazim-Richards' whipped cross was brilliantly glanced home by the diving Jordan Rhodes.
The visitors should have been ahead again just a minute later though, with Stephens lashing wide of an empty net from eight yards.
Ruben Rochina saw a low shot hacked clear just past the hour mark, with Kazim-Richards having a shot tipped wide minutes later.
Charlton were ahead on 64 though as Yann Kermorgant rose unmarked to head home Cedric Evina's right wing cross.

Like it or not Appleton is the manager and get on with it. Promotion?? More like relegation!

C'mon Appleton you can't gloss that over, tell Venkys we need some new players in and not just mercenaries on the way out of the game.
We need more in midfield as Murphy is shocking.

I don't know who are the most shameful. The Venky's who have completely wrecked the club and left with 25 minutes to go today; or those of you who never gave Big Sam a chance right from word go. There were more long balls today in this one game than there were in a full season under Sam. Utter garbage!!! I'm all for giving Aplleton a fair chance and plenty of time, but that was appalling today. By far the worst performance of the season. Olsson - for goodness sake, snap West Ham's hands off and take the 4 million and get him off the wage bill. Kazim Richards? Awful and a terrible attitude. Rochina? loses the ball every time, not good enough. All we can hope for is to make sure we don't get too near the bottom and build for next season, Oh, how I long for those boring days of regular boring Premiership football under boring Big Sam with his boringly successful tactics...!!!! I can almost hear the laughter echoing up the M65!!!!

Cue the moaning from the great unwashed ,we should be in the premier league,were too good for this league, we should be in europe,we want our rovers back boo hoo ,constant whinging and whining its tiresome.The facts are thus-Your a mid table championship team or as you often reffered to it chumpionship team at best,Jack walkers glory days are long long gone and never to return,your club and its dwindling supporters are a national laughing stock,it aint YOUR club its owned by the venky boys from india,your protests are pointless and futile.I could go on all night but maybe just maybe the biggest problem is you the so called fans who boo when they score a goal ,(only in trampburn ehh).The venkys might just get fed up with your constant moaning and decide to milk you dry and toss you away like an old fag end,and then what will you do when your straddled with a mountain of debt ?? ADMINISTRATION ??.Cue the 34 years nonsense .WE ARE BURNLEY WE DONT CARE.”

Appleton had the same players at his disposal as Gary Bowyer but look at the result!! This is a results driven game and a quick look at Appleton's record is a pretty good indication of what is on the cards.
I am beginning to have an issue with football in general as it is the only business on the globe where people can make millions from mediocrity and it has to stop as it is obscene in the extreme.
How many people walk away from a job with a poor track record and step into a double your money post??

Dont blame Venkys, quite a few at Blackburn end left early as the play was abysmal.

Defenders who don't talk.
No desire to press the ball when we were not in possession.
No desire to expand and attack space despite us having 5 bodies in midfield.
A keeper that hardly comes off his line and is rooted when crosses come in.
BUT as cold as I was, couldn't feel my toes, I was there supporting, no booing,
Our support is embarrassing.

Instead, they left early, I can only hope it was to rush to London to arrange a sale asap. But once again, it was a typical and disrespectful dispay from what must be the worst owners to appear in a very very long time in English football.
"Football" is an exaggeration for what I saw Rovers dish up. No energy, no commitment - a ten year old could have seen that with an abolute gem of a goal scorer in Rhodes, the most likely game plan was the thump the ball into the Charlton penalty area as often as possible.
The Chelsea junior at RB was the only one with any energy or sense.
Dann makes Gladstone's statue outside King George's Hall look mobile and Hanley is rough and ready in a Blackburn pubteam like way.
Murphy is clearly cashing in some last pay checks and Lowe willing but scarcely able.
Olly has lost his spark as as MGP. Kazim Richards has the build and nibbleness of a light heavy weight boxer.
Some much for Apple's motivational skills.
It was an utter shambles. The fans seem to have sunk into a stupor beyond disappointment or anger.
I saw Rovers go down into the old div 3 and almost into div 4,but I've never seen such a sorry mess. There's alsolutely no hope as long as Venkys are there, nor with the current maagement, nor the current players.
I felt really sad that I'd gone along, but I won't be going back. After almost 60 years of watching Rovers - firsrt game 1953 - I'm not going back until this shower has collapsed and the sooner that happens the better for Rovers long term future.

I think Blackburn players are suffering due to the tactics / training methods of 5 different managers. Every manager is bound to have their own method / way of training the players and every one certainly has their own interpretation of tactics. Bowyer seemed to have found a good balance, but then Venky's decided MA was to take over.
So... there you have it. Total confusion. You can pretty much tell by the numerous desperate pumping of the hopeful high balls today...

Souness always had that empathy for the 'punters' as he used to call us. I remember being at Bolton when we came from 2-0 down to 2-2, Yorke scored and Souness ran right down the touchline and jumped on the pile of players near goal. It is that ingredient we are missing.

Being a doom-sayer I thought I'd give every-one a go before I put in my two pence worth. The Indians leave after 65 minutes. Presumably after the second goal went in. Shows the interest they have in the team or football for that matter..Whatever they are doing at Blackburn its nowt to do with football. But every-one who attended today, and paid money, is whether you like it or not, supporting them.

I beg to differ. He doubled his wage, and doubled the length of his contract. Just another passenger on the gravy train. His record as a manager is abysmal. Venky's had ONE LAST CHANCE to get it right, and employ a manager with PROVEN EXPERIENCE at this level. Not surprisingly, they fcuked it up, and condemned this one proud club to the knackers yard.

@Burnley fans - Shouldn't you be on the article celebrating your win today, posting comments about YOUR team? You could go around patting each other on the back, telling yourselves your team is about to qualify for the Champions League next season, host the World Cup in 2014, and that C Ronaldo and Messi are looking forward to joining your team next season?
Just, keep your delusional minds on an article about the Burnley team will you? Blackburn fans (a majority anyway) post here to show support for their team, leave constructive comments, and try to have a conversation with each other. Burnley fans are of course more than welcome to join in any discussion, but you lot just seem hell bent on leaving mocking and insulting blabbering remarks - with no punctuation and shoddy vocabulary at that!

I am dumbfounded however to discover this same lack of insight in people who on paper are successful business people on a grand scale.
There can be only one reason for their approach and that is a calculated desire to take everything of value from our club before allowing it to disappear into oblivion.
The FA are supporting this by their lack of intervention, they were supposed to be carrying out an investigation into the takeover by these vile people but as yet everything is quiet, it did not take this long to produce a report for Watergate or the Locherbie incident so what the hell is happening.
Football in general has fallen victim to big business and so has the FA they are more concerned by income and sponsorship than they are by the state of the game fair play and values. Until this changes unfashionable clubs like ours will get a raw deal from everyone.
Fasten your seat belts folks things can and will get a lot worse!!!!

Terrible performance but necessary, now Appleton and Venky's can see their baby up close, they can see how ugly it is and that has sh1t itslef and needs changing. Static and lacklustre midfield, no service to Rhodes and a leaking defence, if it was a house you'd knock it down
C'mon Appleton you can't gloss that over, tell Venkys we need some new players in and not just mercenaries on the way out of the game.
We need more in midfield as Murphy is shocking.

The squad is not good enough full stop!! With the exception of Rhodes who gets no service everyone else is distinctly average. Every quality player has been sold by Venky's who clearly left early for fear of things getting ugly!! Appleton had the same players at his disposal as Gary Bowyer but look at the result!! This is a results driven game and a quick look at Appleton's record is a pretty good indication of what is on the cards. I am beginning to have an issue with football in general as it is the only business on the globe where people can make millions from mediocrity and it has to stop as it is obscene in the extreme.

Fans wanting venkys out and shouting abuse at them ask themselves who would buy the club and back them like they have? The team aint good enough but our fans make Ewood a morgue hardly heard a song all season just negative.

Blackburn deserve to go down for the terrible treatment of the owners and management by the supporters. Fans should get behind their team and realise that you are nott a premier league club, you are punching above your weight to even be in the championship. get realistic and back your owners, without them you wouldnt have a club to support cos nobody else wants to put up with such pathetic support.
Really feel sorry for the Venkys who have nvested heavily in the club and think whatever they do won't be enough for you lot. Appleton should get out while he can before the shambles of a support hound him out and dent his CV.

Before anyone suggests that they had a flight to catch, I am sure that Modan, our resident expert on all things Indian, will confirm that there are more flights to India than there are buses from Burnley.
Please do not insult our intelligence by suggesting that they left for security reasons........this is Blackburn for God's sake, not downtown Beirut.
If, and I mean IF, they ever turn up to another game and insult us all by leaving early, I suggest that the rest of us do exactly the same. Why should we show greater support and commitment than our owners?
And so to Appleton......I have already said that his appointment was not just scraping the bottom of the barrel but turning it over and scratching him from the underside. Today, his team selection, line up, tactics, motivation and substitutions underlined this belief. If Derek Shaw has any sense he will either offer Appleton an immediate job swap with Gary Bowyer or pay him off and go for Nigel Adkins.
In the meantime, let's just pray for heavy snow between now and Tuesday.

Today the Venkys leave after 65 minutes - You just couldn't make it up.
Surely their new PR company would not have advised them to leave so early - perhaps it was on police advice again.
After that result thats us consigned to the Championship for another 12 months at least.
It was an appalling display and I partly blame poor tactics from the new manager.
Kazim Richards started on the left side of midfield, then he was moved to the right, then he played 'in the hole' behind Rhodes, then was moved back to the left.
Pederson was brought as sub to play on the left then was switched to the right.
I am sorry but MGP is not a right sided midfielder / winger and never will be.
Another thing that amazed me is that playing at home, 1-2 down we did not use all our subs. Surely it was worth taking off a defender and throwing on Goodwillie for the last 15 minutes.
I could go on and on.The only positives were Jordan Rhodes well taken goal and the performance of Todd Kane (its a pity he's only on a one month loan).
Its our 5th manager this season and still Rhodes is isolated up front.

Face it Burnley could get promoted and they'd still care more for coming on here to gloat about it. About the only thing making me smile tonight.
Agree with the comment from 8 ball that this should hit home clearly to Venky's up close how much work is needed to get the good ship steady again.
That was an awful game to watch in the freezing cold and awful atmosphere altogether but clearly showed the frailties across the team. Defence fell apart as soon as we went a goal down and the first half was well and truly over.
Hoping Appleton was taking notes, he certainly didn't appear very animated on the touchline, but maybe he was amazed as the rest of us how shockingly laid back the performance was across the field.
Let's see what he's made of, what changes he instigates and whether Venky's really are prepared to back him to make them as they are claiming.

That showing just showed the players were not inspired by Appleton and didn't seem too bothered to show him what they can do and had no fight?
Colin Hendry on a reported £8K a week as the defensive coach? He needs to go for a start.
We were promised a manager with premiership quality who had a proven track record, but again the Venkys/Shabby Minge/Shaw have let us down.
I would have watched Stanley today had their game have been on. At least they try and player honest football and put an honest shift in.
Re all the Bonleh fans posting their thoughts and comments, keep em coming I say! We give you enough stick so can't complain when you have a pop at us!
But be warned, the tide will turn so hope you take it when we give you grief!

Loyalty, devotion, a life long fan - abused.

The fans are to blame for this mess, you need to look hard at yourselves.
absolute embarassment of a club and fans who have brought it all on themselves, should have kept Steve Kean in charge and you would be up near Burnley with a chance of promotion.
Blackburn deserve to go down for the terrible treatment of the owners and management by the supporters. Fans should get behind their team and realise that you are nott a premier league club, you are punching above your weight to even be in the championship. get realistic and back your owners, without them you wouldnt have a club to support cos nobody else wants to put up with such pathetic support.
Really feel sorry for the Venkys who have nvested heavily in the club and think whatever they do won't be enough for you lot. Appleton should get out while he can before the shambles of a support hound him out and dent his CV.
We as fans have watched as our club has gone from mid table premier league to also ran's in the championship, we have watched as all our quality players have been sold and the money pocketed by our owners. We have been lied to week in and week out.
We have watched one disasterous decision after another, we have listened to the media describe the clubs management as a circus, we have seen 5 different managers at the helm, the misguided delusional support of Steve Kean which defied logic to everyone in the game with knowledge, we have seen attendances fall by over 8,000 per week at home.
And then you have the blind arrogance to suggest they have invested heavily in the club RUBBISH!!!. They have stripped out everything of value and that process is still ongoing. The money they have spent is a drop in the ocean in terms of what they have returned in the transfer market and finally replaced quality players with cheap average replacements who are either too old or have no experience.
The whole thing for real Rovers fans is a nightmare that cannot get worse but wait, then out of the mist comes you with your disparaging ill informed remarks. Don't insult the real Rovers fans who know well what is happening. You!! Well what can I say that I have not already!!!!
Whoever you support it is clearly not Rovers so bye and don't come back!!!

Promotion to the Premiership - pure Venky speak this team and its level of performance is mid to lower Championship at the best. If it wasnt for Jordan Rhodes it would another relegation dogfight.
The players need to look at themselves - do they have Pride and Passion or are they happy to pick up their wage cheques and to ... with the fans who spend money and time coming out on a Winters Day to watch absolute crap. You cant blame Venkys for leaving after 65 minutes but you can ask do they too really care?
As for the Manager - action sooner rather than later - if you cant raise the teams level of performance from today - just get rid of the deadwood any there is plenty of them hanging round Ewood.
Sadly the only part of the Club which is Premeier League is the ground. I have loved going to football for 60 years but it needs to look at itself - its money driven and the fans are expected to pay for an inferior product - I have seen more effort on the school field than some put in today IT WAS EMBARASSING TO BE THERE

The fans are to blame for this mess, you need to look hard at yourselves.
absolute embarassment of a club and fans who have brought it all on themselves, should have kept Steve Kean in charge and you would be up near Burnley with a chance of promotion.
Blackburn deserve to go down for the terrible treatment of the owners and management by the supporters. Fans should get behind their team and realise that you are nott a premier league club, you are punching above your weight to even be in the championship. get realistic and back your owners, without them you wouldnt have a club to support cos nobody else wants to put up with such pathetic support.
Really feel sorry for the Venkys who have nvested heavily in the club and think whatever they do won't be enough for you lot. Appleton should get out while he can before the shambles of a support hound him out and dent his CV.
We as fans have watched as our club has gone from mid table premier league to also ran's in the championship, we have watched as all our quality players have been sold and the money pocketed by our owners. We have been lied to week in and week out.
We have watched one disasterous decision after another, we have listened to the media describe the clubs management as a circus, we have seen 5 different managers at the helm, the misguided delusional support of Steve Kean which defied logic to everyone in the game with knowledge, we have seen attendances fall by over 8,000 per week at home.
And then you have the blind arrogance to suggest they have invested heavily in the club RUBBISH!!!. They have stripped out everything of value and that process is still ongoing. The money they have spent is a drop in the ocean in terms of what they have returned in the transfer market and finally replaced quality players with cheap average replacements who are either too old or have no experience.
The whole thing for real Rovers fans is a nightmare that cannot get worse but wait, then out of the mist comes you with your disparaging ill informed remarks. Don't insult the real Rovers fans who know well what is happening. You!! Well what can I say that I have not already!!!!
Whoever you support it is clearly not Rovers so bye and don't come back!!!

I gambled that the Stanley game would be called off and bought a ticket, trying, as some on here urge, to show a bit of support for Apple and though I think Venkys a shower and a disgrace, thought I'd see them wae and make some positive gesture.
Instead, they left early, I can only hope it was to rush to London to arrange a sale asap. But once again, it was a typical and disrespectful dispay from what must be the worst owners to appear in a very very long time in English football.
"Football" is an exaggeration for what I saw Rovers dish up. No energy, no commitment - a ten year old could have seen that with an abolute gem of a goal scorer in Rhodes, the most likely game plan was the thump the ball into the Charlton penalty area as often as possible.
The Chelsea junior at RB was the only one with any energy or sense.
Dann makes Gladstone's statue outside King George's Hall look mobile and Hanley is rough and ready in a Blackburn pubteam like way.
Murphy is clearly cashing in some last pay checks and Lowe willing but scarcely able.
Olly has lost his spark as as MGP. Kazim Richards has the build and nibbleness of a light heavy weight boxer.
Some much for Apple's motivational skills.
It was an utter shambles. The fans seem to have sunk into a stupor beyond disappointment or anger.
I saw Rovers go down into the old div 3 and almost into div 4,but I've never seen such a sorry mess. There's alsolutely no hope as long as Venkys are there, nor with the current maagement, nor the current players.
I felt really sad that I'd gone along, but I won't be going back. After almost 60 years of watching Rovers - firsrt game 1953 - I'm not going back until this shower has collapsed and the sooner that happens the better for Rovers long term future.
I'm with you all the way.

Blackburn have shown recently, during their 4 game unbeaten streak, that the team CAN string results together. Which means today's loss, was really down to bad tactics?

Well Well Well. Great start for agent Appleton and boos ringing round fleawood.Burnley winning away and moving 6 yes 6 points clear of trampburn in the league happy days.I have said it before and i will say it again Blackburn woevers clueless classless club and a national laughing stock to boot.Burnley fc once again top dogs, IN VENKYS/SHEBBY AND APPLETON WE TRUST .HA HA HA HA
Yes is the answer.
No he's not more excited just overjoyed by getting yet again another good win and on top of that the Scruffs lost.
6 points clear ,7 in the table thats excitement.
Look up and dream on lmfao.
5 so called managers this season , what a joke and your owners can't even stay and watch a whole game.
Your owners are a joke. The club the laughing stock of he Champioship and Appelton saying "Blackburn can get into the Premiership this season with the venkys ambitions for the Club"
LMFAO tears streaming down my face .

Look up and dream on? ha ha ha ha ha what a f*cking slavering mess.
Unlike you Rovers infatuated shiny faced mongoloids, we have more ambition (born out of decades of dominating the most one sided derby in world football) than being above your cardboard cut out club.
You're all the same - every single one of you is an easily pleased hillbilly who base your very limited success on another clubs failure.
Have you put a copy of the league table up on your bedroom wall yet?
Apparently the Bonleh club shop has car stickers on sale with 'Above Rovers in the league for 3 weeks 2012/13 season'
....best get one for the Sierra eh?
How you reflect on you scruffs dominating our derby, one which since we last done the double over you has been played how often?
Yes It has been alot of years since we last beat your shower but It's hardly been a derby played every season has it.
See f**king STUPID think ****.

I thought you needed reminding why you are all riddled with envy and hate and clearly it touched a nerve.
The reason it's a derby that's not been played regular is because Rovers have been in a higher league than your unimportant rat pit of a club for decades, even prior to Jack Walker - hence the excitement from all the banjo playing oddballs at our current plight.

Just seen the youtube clips of venkys arrival at fleawood,Shouting and swearing at women and you call them scum ?. Take a good look at yourselves rovers fans you ought to be ashamed of yourselves. No class whatsoever you deserve everything you get. I really hope they pull out and leave you with a mountain of debt its the least you disgusting people deserve.At least now the whole world can see you for what you really are deluded, arrogant foul mouthed pondlife.
This from a supporter of a club who's fans talk about the 'famous' Suicide Squad - a bunch of p1ssed up scrubbers, like they are some sort of legends and pride of their club.
The same club whos fans attempted to set fire to the wife of a former manager.
The same club whos neanderthal 'fans' wrecked their own town centre after yet another derby defeat.
The same knuckle dragging animals that scaled the roof at Ewood and starting throwing roof tiles because they are real 'hard men'.
Now that's what I call pondlife

Being a doom-sayer I thought I'd give every-one a go before I put in my two pence worth. The Indians leave after 65 minutes. Presumably after the second goal went in. Shows the interest they have in the team or football for that matter..Whatever they are doing at Blackburn its nowt to do with football. But every-one who attended today, and paid money, is whether you like it or not, supporting them. It' s your money, of course, but I don't see many on here who enjoyed it or think they got value for money. If you have a bad meal at a restaurant, do you go back?.Look out for a new picture of the Indian woman next week,,folks.

You presumptuous idiot. Just out of interest, do you tell the chelsea fans to do the same? They've only had a few weeks and they are still booing Torres on and off the pitch. I presume being negative isnt an offence down south?
maybe its time that you lot tried supporting your club instead of destroying it with your protests and negativity.
