I am excited about this game. Rovers have a lot to gain with a win, and it won’t be the end of the world if we don’t. Maybe one or two players return, and my hats off to ol’ Tony for getting the team through a rough time, injury-wise (again, I am cautious about his future; evaluate him the end of the season, but I’m glad he wasn’t kicked to the curb earlier). I’m thinking this is 1-1, and a hard-fought point. I love our defending of late. I think we knew scoring goals would be hard without Dacky & Holtby.

Rovers win on the road, and a packed house, against a team with their back to the wall. A lot of young guys played. All in all, a very satisfactory day.

Yes!

Today is a great opportunity for some younger guys to make a difference. It will be a packed out, loud ground. Exciting stuff, I can’t wait to see how the action unfolds today.

Do you support more than one club?Supporting the club always has its price, anywhere you live. If I lived in Lancashire, I would definitely have season tix, and I like to think I would travel to weekend away fixtures.

As a Texan, I think EFL is a bargain. I can’t see the Texas Longhorns for $40, or the Dallas Cowboys. Crowds are 90,000+, as well. The wife & I saw Reading/Blackburn on our trip in September, it was only £25/ea. I don’t count travel, food, etc, or I would likely not leave the house. I sometimes wish I could live in Texas 6 mo’s, England 6 mo’s. Get out, live a little!

I always enjoy your previews & reviews. Good work, thanks!

Rovers’ D has allowed three goals the last five games. I trust our defending more than ability to score. I think we can reasonably expect a low scoring affair. Charlton are 11th in goals (41), 15th allowed (45). We are 8th in goals (46),10th allowed (38). It will be a supercharged, fun place. I expect 1-1 or 0-1.

Looking at our numbers, sitting in 8th, 3 pts off playoff places, with Dacky, Holtby & Evans out, Cunningham gone, and getting 11 pts from the last 18 possible, I’m just enjoying this right now. Not worried about our next game, and certainly not thinking about the last one. Tony had a good lineup today, as good as we could’ve hoped for. He has limitations, sure, but he’s shown he can manage the talent he has, and the players tonight came through for us.

Buckley on, I like this kid

Excellent, no way I find one gripe with Rovers tonight!

YES!!!

I don’t see Johnson, Bennett or Graham back next year. But, I don’t see youth rushing to claim spots, either.

17 shots, 6 on target, lol

Two guys who need quality outings today. Let’s see if they have it...

I would imagine if any team is ripe to be beaten, it’s Hull. Not so far. I expect to see young guys come on in 2nd half, might give us the oomph to finish them.

We have a great chance to get all 3 pts tonight; terrible disappointment if we don’t. Btw, Waco weather is very similar to Blackburn’s right now.

Rovers were competitive vs. Fulham... a strong side, with the best scorer in the Championship in Mitrovic. I expect the team to be the same vs. Hull. Defending wasn’t bad at all. Sans Dack, Holtby, & Rothwell, scoring will be difficult. I see no reason to play Gallagher. Give the other youth a try.

Yes, very tough scheduling the rest of the way. From those seven, with the injuries we have, I could see us get eight points, no more. If we get Rothwell & Holtby in a reasonable time, maybe more. TM certainly has his work cut out for him.

Nice memories, m1st! i would be elated with a point vs Fulham- I know it’s at Ewood, we need 3’s, not 1’s, etc. it’s still a top side, with top talent. We’re a beat-up squad, struggling to find a healthy 11. 2-2, Cairney gets one, assists the other. Out of all the players we lost the last few years, he’s the one I miss most.

We were really fortunate to get a point today. M’bro dominated the last 20 or so minutes. Still, we’re 7-5-2 in our last 14. Not bad, I reckon.

I am encouraged by the 1st half. I like our subs, too.

Very satisfying win today. Great team effort, and Mowbray has to have a huge, sloppy grin on his face!

Owls’ fans having a few words, I bet

Blissfully happy...!!!!
