Match Day Blackburn Rovers v Ipswich Town

[TractorBoys]

I'm going to this, perhaps I'm trying to punish myself.

Williams should feature as a sub which is a boost- Bishop a major doubt after breaking his nose again. Mick is likely to drop Emmanuel despite encouraging performances to put Chambers in at RB and Webster/Berra in the centre. Otherwise, Webster will have to settle for the bench with Chambers/Berra starting.

Expect Skuse & Douglas in the centre of the park with Mick setting up for a 0-0 or to nick a 0-1.. and don't be surprised if we don't muster a shot on target.

Optimistic, then!

Out of over 1000 games in the league this season, this is nailed on to be the worst. I'd really like to see Emmanuel continue at right back and Webster come in for Chambers, but like you say it's never going to happen. If Skuse and Douglas both start then the midfield needs to at least have Lawrence in there to play closer to the striker.

Score wise, I'll go for an optimistic 1-1.

We've not kept a clean sheet this season so today is our best chance of rectifying that. I'll be positive and say 1-0 to Rovers.

Huge two games for Mick IMO but I can't see where goals will come from!!

Ewood park always seems to be a bogey ground for us so I'm going for 1-0 Blackburn

Not this time, I really can't justify paying any more money on the club after season tickets anymore this season! its a shame but I'm losing interest simply because it's so boring....
Plus, I have a terrible record when watching us up north, been to Blackburn (14-15), Huddersfield (14-15), Man U (15-16) and Leeds (16-17) and lost every time

Least surprising result of the day.

Was like watching paint dry. The highlight was watching Leon Best fall flat on his arse into advertising boards

Well there's a surprise! 5 blanks in a row and 4 goals in 12.

Ok, 4 clean sheets in 6! That's pretty impressive, but only in isolation!

Yeah, really not much to report back on, sub par game but Blackburn were there for the taking and the chances all fell to us, hence MOTM going to their goalkeeper. That being said, really nothing to write home about and no confidence gained.

One definite positive was Leon Best had a good game and won pretty much every ball and held up the play well - despite the aforementioned incident with the advertising boards!

P.S I did end up pissed up and went on to Blackpool after the match.
