3-0, oh dear! Charlton next

Maybe you shouldn't believe all you hear. Reyes struck out at savage and therefore tried to get himself sent off! Bellamy and MGP playing well, how we aren't level is a mystery! Get Kuqi off for Dickov for me, give them more of the pace problem up front!

Don't deserve to be 2 down, curse of the commentator strikes again. Rovers need to get an early second half goal!

Truly a great of the game and he will be missed! RIP

Just been looking at your set up, spent all your money on your team which is an interesting approach. Whereas i did a fair bit to my stadium. You've got a good set of players, must admit at the start i couldn't care less and just did it to shut randall up but as i started to win got more and more into it! Very impressive record oklahoma! hope your not getting promoted to F.18 lol!

Already promoted Needing 1 point to secure the title for the modes98 faithful! Great timing to end the season with uni coursework and weekend to amsterdamn coming up!

They did show one of his numerous dummies which let our left back....MGP in down the left! But they don't seem to keen on showing off his skills to the british public, i am not sure they are ready for that yet! Back to brad, he pulled off a couple of vital saves at key moments in saturdays game and it's good to see people who put him down before giving him just a little bit of credit for that. Being a keeper isn't easy as big clubs Maik Taylor is finding out

When you look around todays premiership there is only 1 keeper who stands out as having not made a single mistake and he is shay given! Maik Taylor, one of the best keepers last season has ha d an awful time of recent, as has van der sar! The problem for keepers in recent times is the ball that swerves massively in the air even if not perfectly hit. The balls of recent years have had some movement but have been reliable. but for some reason this year's seem to be moving strangely and alot. Brad hasn't been at his best but he's doing alot better than most of the other keepers, today he made 2 great saves, worthy of him in his better years. He is still our number one and people should appreciate him while he is with us, come 2 or 3 years we will be having to replace him and unless lee can do the job we will be in transition again. Exiled in Toronto: yes dickov puts in 100% and thats his game but when players such as emmo and brad do there stuff it's worth a hell of alot more. You have to have both sung and unsung heroes to make a team and thats the way football works!

More performances like that and my money will be invested in that season ticket next season and i expect if the trend continues that the fans will return!

Great to hear the media who bash us so often, giving us the credit we deserve for a stunning performance in which every player gave there all and scored 4 goals of the highest order. Just hope the international break gives certain players time to recover and then we get a good performance against manc citeh when we come back! Tugay is a legend

Goal! 4-1 Bellllllllers!!!!! edit: raoul the defence is (according to radio rovers) Mokoena Zurab Lucas MGP first and only time we'll see that hopefully, 2 defensive injuries in a game!

Kuqi on dickov off! Rovers make shift defence holding out ok so far! ole! edit: ambrose off jerome thomas on

Boothroyd on for Rommedahl El Karkouri on for Murphy rovers and tugay in particular in very good form! ...as brad pulls off a very good save from hermann h edit: Todd off for Bentley! Lucas at CB and MGP at LB

3-1 MGP

half time 2-1 (emerton, dickov; hughes) Rovers in control for the first 30mins, but charlton got a fortunate goal and that transformed rovers defence into a nervous wreck. Bellers seems to have shaken off any problem he had, however losing gray doesn't seem to have done us any favours. A strong finish to the half however with rovers getting in 2 or 3 good late attacks but couldn't quiet get the final ball right. A hughes team talk of the highest order is needed and maybe a rethink about moving lucas to left back! Wouldn't be suprised to see bentley come on early on in the second half and depending on bellers maybe kuqi aswell! Come on the rovers, get the 3 points this performance deserves

2-1, scramble over the line. Bellers is limping around! edit: gray injured in a tackle on Dennis Rommedahl

Mikey G injured! Replaced by Mokoena edit: Lucas goes to LB and Moko at RB

2-0 Dickov!...header! just got to make sure we don't do a chelski and give a quick goal away

get in emmo! 1-0! what a start!

The best bit of the same article on the bbc and appears in form in pip's link is: "We've spent all our money and done a pile on wages this season, so we'd be in a dire mess financially if we went down this season. We'd go bankrupt." lets send them down

Tugay was average, our midfield had almost no role to play in todays game. Savage who had a first half to forget, then sparked up and had a very good second half. However the less said about Reid the better, has one meaningful part to play and that was setting up joe cole! As normal i thought emerton had a ok game, didn't set the world alight, but only really bellers did. Strangely he looked more dangerous when MGP wandered over to the right to take his set pieces! Much better than any display of bnetley's so far. For me bentley on for tugay would have been a more positive and hughes like change. Can't complain at losing to a team with more money than the rest of the premiership put together and with a bench full of players that would get in almost every premiership team. At least we pushed and worried them and if it hadn't been for reffing on a par with that of mark halsey against liverpool a few weeks back. Onwards and upwards bring on charlton!

For the first goal wiley made chelski retake a free kick they lost having taken it quickly, then he gave them a corner when it didn't seem to be so! Penalty wasn't a penalty third was brad's fault but it's teh same situation as van der sar at old trafford, keeper either watchs for a flick he think is coming or follow the ball on it's path. IMO not 100% brad's fault and the save he has just made has saved us, so you win some you lose some. No complaints with the forth goal, just unlucky! Wiley lost his head for the first 20mins and we've paid the price for his lack of ability to make the decisions that count! In a jose styley we drew 2-2! as teh first 2 shouldn't have counted Good game for bellers!

i'm going to sit in a dark room and hope we win 3-2! IMO was not a pen, very soft decision like ours vs brum last week! Think we are paying for everton and charlton games! Top stuff from chelski!

One of those small teams from lon-don, but they only drew there last game against bottom of the league, whereas we beat a team 2 places above them so we should get at least 3 goals and win easily Full Time, easy once we got the first goal! Great game for bellers & Lucas! Good to see both the aussies getting on the scoresheet and putting in good performances! Bring on the blues! and to round off a great tuesday! bye bye dingles!

3-0 Lucas!!!!!!!!! edit: 88:32 Goal by Lucas Neill (Blackburn) left-footed (low centre of goal) from centre of penalty area (6 yards).Blackburn 3-0 Leeds. Assist (pass) by Craig Bellamy (Blackburn) from right channel. a hat trick of assists for bellers!
