Kuqi up front on his own then?.....Its all good folks!!!

I think Paul's guestimate of a gate around 16-18,000 come Saturday wont be too far off the mark I'm afraid,which in the cold light if day, is nothing more than Championship level. Like it or not Fulham are seen as 'unnattractive' opposition(just like Rovers some would say!) and will bring a full coach or two at best. Agree entirely about giving cheap ticket's to school's for the Darwen End upper for certain game's....the club has nothing to lose. It's grin and bare it time folk's.

Reading the teletext last night and it stated that Bellamy is a doubt for Wales this week. Apparently he had to have injections just prior to Saturday's game...doesn't sound too clever to me,hope the injury isn't worse than first thought because we have jack ###### else up front!!.

4,500 travelled from London for a Sunday televised game Paul...I just hope we can take that many!!

43,000 on Man City American.

Give yourselves a shake and remember the pre-season form So what? Did anyone else think the West Ham players looked fitter and faster than Rovers

I just dont rate him,never have done and never will.An average player at best who lacks any pace whatsoever.The only thing he does well is wind up the opposition fans.Good passer of the ball? Birmingham had the last laugh and no mistake with this fella.

Open question to board members: In your honest opinion what does Robbie 'headless Chicken' Savage bring to our game?...............................................

Shudder at the thought.Will we also be able to create anything like the atmosphere the Hammers fans did today(they really were their twelth man) for next week......sadly we all know the answer to that. Watched the game again and they took the p1ss out of us the second half...totally humiliated us.

I've slightly calmed down now but I think today has been quite a shock to the system and a wake up call for all concerned with Rovers.I mentioned when the team was announced that I thought we had a strong squad out today that should be worth at least a point?....mmmmm Just goes to show you can take nothing from the pre-season form etc. Anyway, onwards and hopefully upwards,a win next week and this board will all be smiles again.

Hopefully today's reckless lunge will be Dickov's last act in a Blackburn Rovers shirt. Agree there Rev,the team/club/fans cant afford and dont want this reckless @#/? anymore...it will cost us dearly in the long run.

I most certainly agree with the rest of your analysis, though, and especially in your saying that we cannot play with two strikers Please dont,its so depressing!!!

Cant wait for Hughes summary of that pathetic second half,I really cant.

Savage Emerton Bellamy ALL ANONYMOUS. Too many players just not involved ....very disappointing. West ham fans taking the p1ss.

Living up to our dirty tag I'm afraid,rags to have a field day tomorrow.......should be a belting crowd on Ewood next Sat

3-1 West ham..........ABSOLUTE F'KIN NIGHTMARE Well done Emerton. Dickov has now been sent off.....what a mess

Dickov on...back to 4-4-2 to chase the game

Bring Bellamy on!!!! **cough**

2-1 Hammers. JHC!

We're getting ripped to pieces ffs!! Bellamy anonymous but clearly NOT fit.

Strong Rovers side there.....surely worth at least a point today. COME ON YOU BLUES!!!!

The only answer appears to lie on the pitch...the comment I constantly hear is "why go and spend good money watching this crap". And that is the crux of the matter Blue....lets just hope the team can deliver

A game thats too close to call so.......1-1 Att: 19,400

Should we be looking higher or lower than that figure then Lee? The matchday walk-ons are now so important to Rovers if we have only sold around 11,000 season tickets.Like many have stated its now imperative that matters take a turn for the better on the field of play to make sure these 7-8,000 people turn up every other week or attendances could clearly take a dramatic turn for the worse. Its make or break this season folks.
