Rochina, Robinson, Formica, Dann, Givet and Olsson all playing today....is there the slightest chance that we will keep some of those players? Really though Robinson, Dann and Olsson I think will still go. But looks a decent squad anyway.

Scandalous team selection,they have denied giving Titus a game so he will never have a chance of being man of match against Accrington Stanley.Could have opened a few doors that.

I don't think it's fair, Stanley put a near full strength team out, they were at home, how can a halfwit compete with that?

It's better to get beat whilst preparing to prepare for the Prem.

Better strengthen those nets at Ewood me thinks.

Boarding them up may be the only way!

Rovers reserves ?? - Robinson, Hanley, Dunn, Marcus Ollson, Petrovic, Rochina, Goodwillie, Orr, Lowe.

I think there was enough first teamers in that side to do better than 1-0 defeat to Stanley.

We played okay in the first game - especially most of the new players and Formica but in the 2nd game we were simply dreadfull - our only meaningfull attempt on goal came with the last kick of the game. Stanley on the other hand played good passing, flowing football and moved the ball well from side to side.

Credit were credit is due - Stanley were worthy winners.

The team have just been on an expensive training exercise in Austria and come back and play like a bunch of W******S. And how much is a season ticket? I think I will stick with Accrington now. Kean you idiot!

So what you're saying is we've signed Nuno gomes and Danny murphy for the reserves have you? This was the reserves with a couple of ex first teamers in it.

Come on Darener that is heresy man. We could put the Rovers youth team out and they would hammer the scummer dingles. Too strong for them for 34 years and that wont change this season. Allez les Bleus!
