Seen them against Hibs tonight - to say that Blackburn were bad wouldn't even begin to describe it, and with virtually a full strength team as well. Nothing to fear from that lot.


Hope this doesn't bite me on the arse later in the season.

I noticed last weekend at leeds they were played off the park and got away with a draw due to a late penalty.

Just reminded me of so many away games we had under Allardyce.

Never give up on something that you can't go a day without thinking about.

Aren't we about a day or so premature with calling teams for being shite against Hibs?

Anyway, let's take this oppertunity to have a mini-poll - Who'll finish higher, us or Blackburn?

I'll go us. We've got the better team by a good distance IMO.

"But Blackburn did occasionally ascend beyond being merely robustly organised and carried the sort of classy, high-powered menace that Allardyce's Bolton eventually attained"

Don't think I ever read this kind of praise back in 2005.

BSA could do us twice, the Red Sh*te could murder us twice and Burnley roll us over, that good enough?
