If we were to go down I'd expect a clearout with the better players sold and more cheap imports / loanees brought in. And I wouldn't expect a promotion push either - unlike the last time under Mowbray this looks terminal. The club is in a far worse state and we could be down amongst the dead men for years. "Bigger" clubs than Rovers have struggled to get out of League One. Leeds took 3 years to come back. And we'd have no talismen like Danny Graham or Bradley Dack this time. It's vital we stay up this season - because there's no say we'll be coming back anytime soon. And if the current hierarchy at Ewood stay in place it could get worse. This time next year we could be in another relegation battle They have to appoint a decent manager this week. And then we have to hope for the best

Johnson doesn't want to be first team manager, and it shows. Poor selections, tactics, and motivation of the players in both the 2 games he's been in charge. If they decide to keep him as caretaker to the end of the season we'll go down A new man needs to be appointed this week, and if that means the journeyman Rowett then get him in. The players need some bollockings and the team some fresh thinking. As is stands we're doomed.

If Norwich were s***, what were we?

Relegation teams are full of hard luck stories

You were saying?

Great timing

Inability to score goals, story of the season.

Chris Crowe, fine Rovers player from early 1960s? Died 2003 but could be ideal candidate given our grave position

I think this is the likely scenario Kick the decision into the long grass, see how it goes and hope for the best

Leicester docked 6 points

Thanks for this. I've never seen Rovers lose at Carrow Road too but one that stands out back in the latter Premier League days was when we were 3-1 up with 10 minutes to go and drew 3-3. Walking away from the ground that felt like a defeat. No idea where the train station is, but the railway station on the other hand......

It shows their complete lack of judgment that they hired a dud who failed everywhere he's been. Unfortunately it's also indicative of Rovers' standing within the game because of the way the club is run - no decent manager will come near us.Look at the list of candidates bandied around yesterday - a horror show of failure and never has-beens

Assuming Gestede takes weeks if not longer to find another manager Johnson has a big job to do and could make a difference, and Scott Wharton back and playing well (and not getting injured again) will help, but the lack of quality and Championship experience will tell in the end. I thought it looked a relegation line-up back in August and nothing has changed since. We are going down

We couldn't make it last night but it sounds like a rerun of the game at Hillsborough which was comfortably one of the worst I've seen. Wednesday (apart from one or two) have even lower quality players than us but the fact we couldn't put them away easily in both games tells its own story. Both Wednesday and Rovers with their current line-ups would be mid-table at best in League One

Second worst team beats the worst team by a single goal but 3 precious points. It's going to be nip and tuck till the last game to avoid the drop
