I would start with this team on saturday:

Robinson

Orr, Dann, Givet, Olsson or Henley

Vukcevic, Etuhu, Murphy, Formica

Kazim if fit / Goodwillie or Rochina

With this team a 2-0 win.

[AllRoverAsia]

I believe we will win comfortably and go on to take the Championship title by at least 10 points.

I also believe that Guns N'Roses will reform with a lineup that includes Axl and Slash.

We all would, shame we'll never see those players together.

[Puffsan]

Looking forward to this game. First rovers game on norwegian tv this season, next is Middlesbrough in September.

Looking forward to see how the team plays, and not listening On radio or reading about it. Hope kazim is fit to play.

Think it will be exiting to see how our team is compared to Leicester who almost everyone thinks will fight in the top for promotion

And I still believe in Santa, the Tooth Fairy and the Easter Bunny.

Play-off final was pay-back for the home game in late 91 I think it was. We paggered Leaicester only for them to win at the death with a lucky Kevin Russell goal.

I was at Ewood that day. Utterly gutting.

Remember it well Bryan, as you say utterly gutting.

I also remember the game in the late 80's when Hendry scored in the last minute to give us a 3-3 draw at a rain drenched Ewood, big Ron was doing the commentary for the match, had it on video for years.

I was just saying last night how I'd love to be going down on Saturday, bank holiday weekend and a home game, but I just can't bring myself to attend, wish I could....

Think we'll be lucky to get a draw if the form from Wednesday is anything to go off, how the mighty have fallen eh? Worried about a mediocre Leicester side....

KEAN OUT

AGNEW OUT

VENKYS OUT

What channel?

[alexanders]

Rainmaker: Sumo is all I know.

Its amazing that you are able to follow Rovers matches in Norway. TV2 who have the rights for Premier League (sends all the matches) have also bought all the cups and Championship.

[SAS]

Concerned after our first two performances. Leicester know a win would be 3 points gained and will no doubt try for it. For this reason and the fact we have a tactical genius at the helm I see a 2-1 defeat.

[callumrovers]

I'm going for 2-2

I wouldnt get your hopes up mate, we played dire on Wed. More sideways passing than a table football player

This would be my team but the clown will have something different in mind

Robbo,

Orr, Hanley, Dann, Givet

Vuckevic, Murphy, Etuhu, Pedersen

Rochina, Gomes

With Gomes being replaced by either Goodwillie or Dunn (based on Richards being injured this is)

List of championship TV fixtures for Norway

Looks like they are pretty much showing every Sky game plus the 3pm International match each week.

EDIT : Forgot to write the obvious that it shows on TV2 Sport 3 in Norway, not yet listed on that site A cup of beans. Should be soon, those channels lend themselves more to people watching online than pubs anyway so can't see it affecting the attendance as much as the manager....

[AJW]

cant quite decide if to go tomorrow or not i did renew my ST but chose not to go wed night but a couple of pints in the pub morbid curiosity and the internal rage i feel for Kean once i set foot in that stadium and see him pretending to be a manager is not a good combination for me

i think Leicester are a better team than Ipswich and Hull and we have a shortage of strikers , i can see 1-1 coming

the real litmus test will come with 2 tricky away games next up Leeds and Bristol City 2 defeats there and the next home game is Barnsley at home on a tuesday night ...... what price a sub 10k gate for that??

Too right, Tom!

Was Just a comment that even those who were thinking about going, probably wont now. - and I dont blame them.

Thunderstorms and torrential rain in Blackburn tomorrow too!

[Guest Rovers4Good]

No Dunny or Richards in training.

Thunderstorms and torrential rain in Blackburn tomorrow too!

And that's just over Steve Keans head?

[roversfan99]

Does Vukcevic even bother coming in?

[A cup of beans]

No Dunny or Richards in training.

Dont worry we have the strongest squad in the League!

[Tom]

So Richards probably won't be fit and Rochina is apparently unfit or fat, Goodwillie obviously unfancied and we haven't got a new striker in, 90 minutes for Gomes then

[Puffsan]

I wouldnt get your hopes up mate, we played dire on Wed. More sideways passing than a table football player

Well I will be quite used to that after watching 37 games last season won't I?

I'll rather watch us playing crap than not getting to watch at all. And with us in the championship I only get to see 3 or 4 matches until december which is really a big change from what I'm used too.

[Guest Rovers4Good]

Does Vukcevic even bother coming in?

Yeh he's in and Rochina looks sharp.

[roversfan99]

Ok i'm counting on you for some day-early team news this season

[Ralfinho]

Yeh he's in and Rochina looks sharp.

He's (Simon) in the squad you mean?

[Tom]

R4G-does Raheem train with the first team lads?
