England’s World Cup campaign is over, Blackburn Rovers are heading to Portugal, and the new third kit has caused exactly the sort of debate you would expect.
This week, Mike Beaty and Mark Hitchen finally compare notes on England’s tournament. Did Thomas Tuchel get the semi-final wrong? Was he too cautious when the moment called for bravery? And what should we make of the chaotic 6-4 win over France in the third-place play-off?
There is plenty of Blackburn Rovers discussion too.
Rovers beat Barnsley 3-0 in a behind-closed-doors friendly, Damien Johnson has been promoted to assistant head coach, and the squad are preparing for their pre-season trip to Portugal.
We also discuss Igor Tyjon being left out of the travelling group and ask what that could mean for the young striker.
And then there is the new third kit.
It is officially red — but is there a hint of claret about it? More importantly, should any Blackburn Rovers kit ever be allowed anywhere near that colour?
Let us know what you think:
Is the new shirt red or claret?
Did Tuchel cost England a place in the World Cup final?
What should Rovers be looking to achieve during the Portugal trip?
