From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

A fracture rules Nathan Cachorrão out for 62 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Blackburn Rovers will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Market

Blackburn Rovers turn down Charlton Athletic for Adam Forshaw

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad

Tempers go at Blackburn Rovers

Balázs Tóth was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

Charlie Gray gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Charlie Gray has just signed for Blackburn Rovers, and for once the answer mattered.

Squad

Words at Blackburn Rovers training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Sondre Tronstad is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Player ratings

Yuki Ohashi runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 17. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market

Ryan Alebiosu asks to leave Blackburn Rovers

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad

Nathan Cachorrão breaks a bone — 70 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 70 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Player ratings

Oladapo Afolayan runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 24. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

Balázs Tóth in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Blackburn Rovers this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Sondre Tronstad falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Market

Eyes on Adam Forshaw again

The phone has started ringing about Adam Forshaw again, and this time the name on the line is Queens Park Rangers. Blackburn Rovers are listening politely and promising nothing.

Player ratings

Mathias Jørgensen stands above it all

Some games turn on a moment; this one turned on a man. 7.82 on the card, and the Blackburn Rovers support went home talking about one name.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Lee Gregory

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Match

Blackburn Rovers share the spoils with Rotherham United

A 1‑1 draw with Rotherham United leaves the dressing room somewhere between relief and regret.

Squad

A fracture rules Nathan Cachorrão out for 87 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Blackburn Rovers will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Match

5 matches without a win for Blackburn Rovers

The run now stands at 5, and the questions being asked around Blackburn Rovers are no longer polite ones.

Match

Nobody could stop scoring

6 goals. Both benches spent the second half looking at each other rather than at the pitch. Purists will complain about Blackburn Rovers and Birmingham in equal measure; everybody else had a wonderful time.

Match

A bad afternoon for Blackburn Rovers against Birmingham

2‑4 to Birmingham, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad

Sondre Tronstad falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad

Tempers go at Blackburn Rovers

Hayden Carter was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Player ratings

Mathias Jørgensen runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 20. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Sondre Tronstad

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Loan watch

Valentin Joseph wants to come home

“I did not go to Liverpool to sit and watch. I want to come back to Blackburn Rovers and fight for my place.” 6 appearances in 18 matches say the rest.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Squad

Adam Forshaw breaks a bone — 31 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 31 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad

Lamin Sillah says Blackburn Rovers went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Squad

Balázs Tóth in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Blackburn Rovers this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

Bolton Wanderers take the points off Blackburn Rovers

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Yuki Ohashi

Successful dribbles: 16. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

The manager has not finished forgetting Sondre Tronstad's mistake

Publicly it is behind everybody. It is not behind the man who picks the team, and the only place that shows is a team sheet. He will get another chance; he will get it in a match that matters less.

Squad

A fracture rules Adam Forshaw out for 64 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Blackburn Rovers will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Squad

Sondre Tronstad falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad

Menezes in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Blackburn Rovers this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

No hiding place for Lee Gregory

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Lee Gregory, and the manager let it.

Player ratings

Ryoya Morishita runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 16. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Match

Blackburn Rovers and Ipswich Town take a point apiece

It finished 1‑1, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Market

Andri Guðjohnsen linked with a move away

The name of Andri Guðjohnsen keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Blackburn Rovers say nothing, which says plenty.

Player ratings

Yuki Ohashi changes it off the bench

He was not in the side at half past three and he had settled it before five. Half an hour, and Blackburn Rovers had a different afternoon.

Market

The shop window has Kevin Bonifazi in it

Blackburn Rovers have let the market know Kevin Bonifazi can be had. No price in the advert, but everyone in the trade knows roughly what it says.
