It really was a great finish. Perfectly hit. Hyam is clumsy, he tried to control the ball, big mistake, but put in that predicament by Pears thinking he can do a controlled headed pass, what, 30 or more yards from goal. He was close to the touchline he should have just headed it out of play. Both made fatal errors, meanwhile Wharton was ambling back like a beached walrus to provide cover.

66% possession, 6 shots, 0 on target and lose 5-0 Your the man, Russell. And contrary to opinion expressed by another they will not win the title, not gain an automatic promotion and, I really hope, continue Russell's implosion into the playoffs.

The right choice would have been Pears heading it out of touch and not playing a header to a player facing him and at an awkward height.

I expect Leicester and Coventry to win their home midweek games. Coventry will come to Ewood still in the playoffs mix and Leicester could be putting the icing on a title win at home. I too expect no further points, hope 49 are enough and trust in the inadequacy of others. Not pessimistic, just realistic. If I'm wrong I can be 😊 Edit: the Leeds of last night would have torn us a new one.

All those left from the squad v SW. They are L1 at best.

Every Picture Tells A Story, Don't It.

I wonder what Mr. Brittain is thinking about Pears og

Subjective, I think it was.

So you're wrong, no big deal

That's how I saw it. Atwell, hmmmmm, best not opine, it would be impolite.

He had time to kick the ball again. It was close to him. Once the ball bounced and spun away he was doomed. He's not that agile at the best of times. Hyam played his part, over hit ball, on goal and bobbly. That doesn't excuse Pears not making proper contact with the ball. Specsavers needed.

Thank you! Still getting used to navigating that site. It confirms that Dolan and Gallagher didn't manage a single one between them. Markanday put himself about a bit in his cameo.

Good post. On the highlighted text we won possession, touches and passes whilst also playing more long ball than SW. I can't locate touches within the opposition area but recall a ridiculously low number for Rovers being mentioned in commentary. Just to add, and not in reference to the above quoted post, I am not putting any faith into there being any form of reset at the club over the summer. This attitude avoids disappointment and invites delight if I'm wrong, but 13 years of shite teaches something.

Very few. In the past 5 games no goals, 1 assist and just 1 shot on target.
