I'm going for 2-2 I can see it being one of those games we should be winning but end up being frustrated.

blue phil and flopsy agreeing on something? i'm obviously on the wrong forum.

With classes and everything, I haven't posted on the board in quite a while... but there was no way I wouldn't be reading up on everything prior to this match.

If Rovers manage to grab three points from this fixture, I'm not sure what would delight me more--Rovers being in the top half of hte table, or Brum staying in the drop zone.

Hope Bellamy's fit, and perhaps Hughes will be brave enough to play Bentley in the Bergkamp role behind Bellers? It'd be great to see Bentley's passing pick apart the Big Club's defense, which has already leaked 13 goals so far this campaign.

Up the Rovers on Saturday.

Maybe it's worth bring THIS From May 2004 up again, as a reminder that although he plays for Brum he's still a Roverite.

[SAS]

we need a win for this game, we have some tough games coming up, so 3 points would put us in the best way for the upcoming matches.

3-1

bellamy maybe

[Exiled_Rover]

I'd like a win from this match, we could certainly use it. Not sure if we're going to get it though, all depends on if Bellers can last for more than 15 minutes and if Brad can stop his transformation into Calamity James, if only for 90 minutes

[mattjansen]

It seems that Dunn might be left out tomorrow.

Dunn lasted 56 minutes and Lazaridis the first half for Brum reserves on Tuesday.

Neither Tiny Taylor nor Alex Bruce featured which either means they are injured or are being saved for Saturday. Kuqi's younger brother played as well.

My guess is that Dunn will be a sub tomorrow but Bruce might be playing mind games and will start with him and replace him in the second half. It seems unlikely Dunny will get a full 90 minutes.

sky sports are reporting Dunn is doubful for the Rovers game as he has picked up a calf strain.

and according to Brum fans, on local radio today they are saying Dunn is OUT for Saturday.

good news!

(sorry Dunny)

Smokescreen.

Wouldn't trust anything coming out of that bunch of desparados. They still hate Rovers with a passion over the Savage affair and it will be the first time they will have to face Sav on the pitch.

PS If Dunn is out, at least he can watch the match from the Blackburn End.

The numper that is Lawro has predicted a poor game with a 1-1 draw and then has the temerity to state that he sees Everton getting a point off Chelski

keep em coming, i'm here all week

Will Amorouso play, I could do with a laugh.

I'm worried where the goals are coming from.

[S15]

Dunn out of 'Relegation battle.'

[den]

"relegation battle"?

That suggests there are two teams in the bottom three! The cheek.

[philipl]

"Relegation battle"?

At least the Brummy Big Club seem to know their place now.

[den]

Touche, Pip.

[Mattyblue]

'Larwo's' anti-roversism gets funnier by the week. How are Everton as likely to get a draw against a rampant Chelsea as we are against a struggling Brum. If I added up the points he predicts for us through a season, think we'd just about hit the 20 mark!

[Ozz]

More good news is that Mario Melchiot is out injured. I thought he was their best player last season at our place, big strong quick and really dangerous going forward.

Pennant Vs Gray? Should be a busy boy our Mickey tomorrow lunchtime.

the Country's biggest club have sold just over 1000 tickets of the 1700 allocated and Rovers have allowed supporters to pay on the door should they wish.

Brum have Dunn,Gray,Clemence and Melchiot definately missing

lazaridis may have a fitness test
