Well I wrote we had another blunder waiting and there it is. Why oh way are we being caught like that?

You've said it yourself---2 poor teams so either can win.

Its like local league, the ball's in the air most of the time. Our defending is terrible, feel another blunder is just round the corner, thank God we haven't been under much pressure.

Shudder.

Strange atmosphere. Tension is palpable. We"ve had most of the play but can't string decent passes together. And our defence looks very rocky.

FFS!

Nobody thinks tomorrow is unwinnable but its a matter of which team turns up, the team that won at Leeds or the team that was massacred at Bristol. Our home record and our record v bottom teams is terrible. That's a fact. Draw and we go above Stoke in 17th place and are safe for another season. That's all I care about. Longer term the prospects look dire and we seem destined to lose more good players in the summer. Whatever happens tomorrow our future looks grim. If Venkys don't sell we have had it.

Well we couldn't bear the worst team at home could we? So why assume we can beat the 2nd worst? Our record against the poor teams is shocking and our performances at home generally are dreadful. Luckily results have mostly gone our way and we may already be safe. But I want us to put the issue to bed and we never do.

Yet another example of a player seemingly bound for us but never arrived. I think time has gone for that one.

We won't keep him. At his maximum value right now, no chance that the bean counters at Ewood won't cash in.

We will have way more than 7000 fans at this game so its up to our supporters to shout louder!

Its recognition of what we all know---the Championship is the most exciting League in Britain. As they say, any team can beat any other on any given day. I get bored to tears with the Premier League

Players wages will go up (everyone else's that is).

I remember a game at Ewood where their keeper took an age to take every clearance after they got an early goal. When we got an equaliser he was suddenly Action Man scrambling behind the goal to get the ball back in play! Couldn't even wait for the ballboy to do his job. Did we laugh!

Worked for us at Leeds?

I can't get interested in this thread, at least not at this point. I want to see us stay up first, that cannot be assumed. Secondly, with these owners, we can identify whatever targets we like but we will end up with the usual dross or relying on kids from the Academy.

WE developed whims a footballer from the age of 6! And they get the same as us for playing him for a couple of seasons. Absolutely stinks. But better than the nothing we are used to getting, or nearly nothing (Philips).

True but we've already received £18M remember. Not saying its overgenerous or anything by the way.

Apparently there is a sell-on clause re Wharton. https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/blackburn-rovers-adam-wharton-sell-on-clause-detail-crystal-palace/

James Beattie! What a fiasco that was!

Why wasn't Bamford booked for that attempt to elbow the ball into the net late on? Once the ball looped over the crossbar he had the cheek to claim his shirt was being pulled and demanded a penalty! He made 3 seperate penalty claims in extra time! What an absolute tosser!

Vernon, Pickering---both to Everton where our best managers seemed to end up as well. Mike England to Spurs. We really are a feeder club.

They've a team of talented youngsters who've had a rough season in the toughest league. I predict they'll go straight back up with ease. I'm very envious of them tbh.

As I keep saying we need 4 points to be mathematically safe! As of this minute!

We guessed!
