sounds about right,let there late and then you don`t have to pay for an evening meal,get 4 of them to share a room as well🙂 that was the waggot way

All manner of things really, less traffic jams if you're lucky, less driver hours, less diesel etc

As you say meals and snacks on the bus and straight to bed when they get there but you're going to be leggy in the morning not doing much until you get to the ground and do pre match.

I know Eustace had them walking up the sea front at Plymouth last time we were there.

Can't say that I'm looking forward to this one.  A 4.30 am start from Ewood and not a ground that we generally do well at.  I'd be delighted with a point but a defeat would put a huge amount of pressure on the Swansea and Watford games.

Hope you see a shot on target in the 90 mins tomorrow anyway!

Why is this a 12:30 kickoff? TV or other reasons?

[WacoRover]

Prediction:

Hirst & Sammie each score a goal, & Walton keeps a clean sheet. 

[Paul Mani]

For me…

                            Toth

      O’riordan.  McLoughlin   Cashin

Miller     Henriksson .    Sonny.    Pickering

                Baradji.     Cantwell

                        Ohashi

Subs - Pears, Atcheson, Pratt, DeNeve, TGH, Forshaw, Tyjon, Jorgensen

i want to see O’riordan get an extended run in the team and I want to see Henriksson next to Sonny.

We do need a LWB in this window. On loan at least. Plus the stated striker.

Pears is out injured. So probably Michalski will take his place on the bench.

I would start Jørgensen, he was preparing for the CL match against City and match fit. A good outlet to have on the counter too.

Cant imagine that we will, with the reasoning given that he will have not had time to learn pressing triggers etc

Expecting him to have a 20-30 minute cameo off the bench in a desperate attempt to claw ourselves back into the game

If anything sums up modern football.

[Elrovers]

I’ve seen the team already. We’re done. De neve starting, henriksson ohashi up top again, miller is the one who is injured so I think Atcheson is playing wing back. That’s all I know. Going to be a battering today unfortunately.

Likely to be plenty of shots on target from the Tractor Boys XI.

8-0 Ipswich.

[Tomphil2]

On the bonus side if Toth looks good today keeping us from a hiding his value is looking good.....

Got to get with the Ewood way of thinking.

Safe trip @Parsonblue and to the rest of the fans making the 500 mile round trip.

This could be one of those games that we sneak a result, I hope, for the travelling fans, we do just that.

Ipswich 1 Blackburn 1
