NJ totally to blame for this, GILLESPHEY and Campbell on the left, wanker.

Good to see the childish comments have started already

Yeah let's ignore Kelman's cross, Leaburn being off the pitch and nobody reading the ball back in.

Still doesn't need people being called a wanker though does it?

Where's the snow blizzard when you want it...

Charlton and on · January 4

Team looks knackered this half. This is a poor Blackburn team and a shit performance from Charlton in the second half.

jakecafc · January 4

All we do is lump it forward to no one every time.

Dazzler21 · January 4

We're gonna win this - Just watch.

WattsTheMatter · January 4

Doc and Gillesphey just aren't up to this level.

PeanutsMolloy · January 4

Judging by Bell's ubiquity, obviously NJ's cunning plan was to have Bell play both Left and Right-sided CB

Getting boring now

“He’s in credit” according to most. Completely clueless at the minute.

Campbell should have been a bit more alert to that ball coming back out of the box

Campbell should be no where near the LWB position.

Transfer window opened players being signed left right & centre but we are yet again putting square pegs in round holes.

Jones’ fault for thinking we could go into a season with only Edwards as an option there

Campbell cannot play left wing back
Defensively he's just a liability

He can with Bell inside him.

NabySarr · January 4

We don’t have anyone else to play LWB. TC was fine there with Bell behind him. The mistake was putting Gillesphey there

I hate to say it, people demand subs, but we made too many too early this game and it has wrecked our flow.

We've lost to Norwich, Portsmouth and have thrown a 2-0 lead away against a depleted Blackburn. Unacceptable.

Are you having a laugh? It was only 23/24 that we finished 16th in League One.

The Red Robin · January 4

Not sure it’s the best decision to replace the entire midfield three within a game.

fenaddick · January 4

Clever play from Doc to win a FK halfway through the Rovers half

It's OTT and Jones is the best manager we have had since curbs, but having Gillesphey LCB with TC LWB is absolute suicide in league 1, never mind the championship. So naive

Playing TC at wing back is a fucking disaster

What’s more of a disaster is bringing on Gilly behind him. Could have just avoided that by leaving Bell where he was and trusting in Gough as Burke’s replacement.

This. Thought it was odd at the time and this decision looks to have cost us here. Really struggling to understand the rationale of this decision.

Really poor subs too, has taken our foot off the gas and we have sat back for 45 mins

Does it not occur to you that we probably have to make those subs due to the games they have played, we haven't played well this half and that was before the substitutions.
