v Coventry City (h) - 27/4/24
jim mk2 replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
They’re not the only ones who will be at it. Leeds winning last night has intensified the race at the top meaning Leicester will have it all to play for in the last game. I’m increasingly gloomy, I can’t see us getting another point. -
The Aynsley Pears appreciation thread.

Outstanding in the game at Ewood He'd be first on my list if we manage to stay up. -

Just watched highlights the FA Cup semi-final and you have to say there is no way we are going to win this match Coventry were brilliant, fought every inch of the way from 3-0 down and deserved to win And how on earth is Hyam going to cope with Sims? Rovers 0 Coventry 4 -
John Eustace - our head coach

David Moyes on MotD apologised to West Ham fans after their 5-2 defeat at Crystal Palace Has Eustace apologised for the debacle today? -

Between them, how many points have Pears and the Swedish lad cost us this season? It must be 10-15 points thrown away through stupid, unforced errors that no professional goalkeeper should make. -

Yes we got done on goal difference last season at the top of the table and goal difference could send us down this season. It’s that tight -

I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s it for the season now - we won’t get a point from Coventry or Leicester, 49 points is our lot and we will have to rely on the clubs below to be even more inept in order for us to stay up. The win over Leeds was obviously an aberration. The “display” today was that of team of players who, with one of two exceptions, have no hunger for the fight, no pride in the shirt and no pride in the club that pays their wages. They, and the manager, should apologise to long suffering fans who deserve better than what was on show at Ewood today -

Just listen to your old Uncle Jim - he’s seen if time and again with Rovers. Wednesday have been in much better form than us and they proved it today. I said on here after the abject defeat away to West Brom that I thought Rovers could easily go down and sadly it’s looking that way. I don’t normally call any game as a “must win” (a draw would have been fine today) but the Coventry match is near as dammit a must win because I don’t think we’ll get any change out of Leicester Today was a disaster for the club there’s no other way of describing it. -
Not at all. Just an observation

Of course. It’s one person’s opinion. Feel free to disagree. No need to get upset

In no particular order of preference Palace, Brentford, Fulham, West Ham, Arsenal, Tottenham, Chelsea, Brighton. Bournemouth etc. Any of them will do.

Come on, they need to win far more than we do. A draw isn’t a bad result at all -

Since Eustace took over Rovers have taken 13 points from 13 games including 2 wins IIRC In 13 games in the same period Wednesday have gleaned 21 points from 39, including 6 wins and giving themselves a fighting chance of survival after looking doomed all season. Compared to us that’s good form They will be up for it with the backing of 7000 fans tomorrow so unless we’re in the right frame of mind too and play much better at Ewood than we have been I still don’t see how you “expect” us to win You know how this is going to pan out. We’ll go to Leicester on the last day needing a point at least to stay up -

Wednesday are in very good form, the league table is irrelevant. Saying we should expect to win is a bit daft to be honest seeing as we’ve only won 2 since the new manager took over -
Words like "legend" are bandied around too easily. If Wilcox was a "legend" how you classify Shearer? Wilcox was a very good player for Rovers and nothing more. Anyone who wants a London team to win anything must have had a strange upbringing. It's a fundamental law of northern football fandom.
