Current form suggests another defeat ...however history tells us we have a very good win rate at Ewood Park.

Unfortunately recent history (over the last 8 games or do) suggests we're going to get stuffed. I fear if DC perseveres with Locks + Sweeney/Broadbent CB's and 4-3-3 including Nichols... I would go for 5-0 to Blackburn.

If the Wombles game is anything to go by i'll go Lancashire Rovers 7 Rovers 0.
Hopefully it will be a completely different type of game and we win 0 2.
DC sounded as if he expects us to get beaten,a man who does'nt have a lot of confidence in his squad.Maybe i read it wrong (DC Blackburn game preview) and i certainly hope i have.We have a genuine promotion challengers against relegation fighters (i hope we're going to fight!).
Fingers crossed.

Please feel free to mock now (and probably later), but I have a feeling we're going to win today.

Partington our new central midfielder ? Lines,Nichols and Broadbent dropped. Great to see Bodin starting.
How has O Clarke managed to keep his place. Broom in the squad at long last.

Bore off Mike The chap called Harry (Mike, John, and Kegan) and I disagree on almost everything. But I'm afraid his stats were much more interesting than your 'bore off Mike'. I could suggest that you 'bore off' yourself, Sir. I won't though, because I''m sure all gasheads can contribute their opinions on Gas Guzzler. Enjoy the matchday, old chap.

Lockyer/Sweeney DOES NOT WORK. Are we playing 4-5-1 today? 90 minutes against the wall hoping Ellis can beat 3 players and score 'a worldy'? O Clarke retains his place - based on what exactly? I am worried we're going to get a hiding. Hopefully I will be proved wrong and everyone can take the piss out of me and I will unreservedly apologise.

Did Bola crap in Darrell's cup of tea? Or is he being punished for not trying hard enough in the check-a-turd trophy?

Lockyer and Sweeney not working is one thing, but people moan we cant defend, so we set the team up in theory to be more solid and that is wrong Clarke is more solid than Lines I guess in form or not and might actually attempt a tackle

O Clarke has been totally anonymous all season (barring the late winner against Oldham). I guess it shows how threadbare the squad is that DC feels he is still worth a start. Bola is (from what I have seen) our best defender. Maybe an idea to let him play football at some stage (unless he is injured and no-one knows).
