[Archived] Blackburn Rovers 2 - 0. Fulham Fc

[1864roverite]

But Arsenal were poor, approached the game as if they had already won it and the goals they conceded were truly abysmal.

Saying that can fulham put two good results together?

I dont think so, even without Tugay I am confident we can pull this one off

[AggyBlue]

What we don't need is a tense atmosphere that transmits itself to the players.

Fortunately 2500 are going to teach the rest of us a new song that will rock the place.

[pksrover]

oh dear...Lawro is predicting a 2-0 win for us!

But Blackburn are slowly getting their injured players back fit again and they have started to look more like the team that we know they can be.

is Lawro actually saying that we are a decent team?

[SAS]

Don't want to spoil the party, but did anyone notice that Fulham beat Arsenal 2-1 this evening

should have been more i heard

im still confident about this game

which is a verybad thing

I have it on my mobile, can bluetooth it to anyone in the Jack Walker Upper on Saturday. My phone is called Ozz.

The times I've read his predictions this season he has actually been quite complimentary of Rovers

[blue/white]

As the Dude and other posters have stated: 'need three points desperately'.

After the dreadful feeling of the last 45 minutes vs. Spuds, I was impressed by the way we handled ourselves at Feyenoord,hopefully the extended break will heal all niggling knocks & the lads can

put Fulham in their place. This fixture (or is it the Cottage match) is usually chockful of scoring--

with our back four, i'd not bet against that.

Noting that we are on december's doorstep: When's the admiral return?

I miss that warm, secure feeling Ryan provided something awful.

cheers

Just got 2 free tickets and a early shift on Saturday, so i'll be making my way down to Ewood.

Jeffers and Zura likely to miss out because of injury.

Jeffers and Zura likely to miss out because of injury.

definately one more game with Nonda and McCarthy then...I guess Neill, if fit, will play instead of Zurab. Todd might get a game on the bench at least..maybe Derbyshire on the bench as well?

[Mr. E]

a win is requited here, nothing less.

i will search you out... mine is called big dave...

Players well rested.

Likely to have been studying the league table.

Bring it on.

Brad - Grey, Ooijer, Henchoz, Emo - Peter, Savage, Bentley, Galagher - Benni, Jeffers.

Sub: Brown, Neill, Gamst, Nonda, Axe.

1-0 (Jeffers)

with zurab a doubt and gray putting in some decent performances maybe hughes might play neill in his favoured position at centre back if zurab doesn't make it?

emerton ooijer neill gray

just a thought.

[philipl]

It seems that Zurab and Jeffers are out, not doubts.

Suspect Hughes will go for Henchoz replacing Zurab and Neill to replace Gray and no changes elsewhere. Gally to be on the bench and to get at least 20 minutes in place of Nonda if we are not winning by then.

[frosty]

Wolverine, you can only have 5 subs for a Premiership match.

[Wolverine]

I knew that, I just wanted them to watch!

[theresonly1alj]

I'm going for 2-1 to Rovers. B Mac and Bentley to score for us.

[CAPT KAYOS]

This will be more difficult than people think and we always seem to struggle against them for some reason.

Given their morale boosting win over the Gooners and it adds a little more to the situation.

We need a win and to start scoring some goals

We have had a rest so should be a little more refeshed and on that basis make home advantage count.

2 V 1 Rovers - nervy first half with us possibly going behind but responding with x2 Jeffers goals in the 2nd half when Hughes finally realises Nonda is just a no no no.

2 V 1 Rovers - nervy first half with us possibly going behind but responding with x2 Jeffers goals in the 2nd half when Hughes finally realises Nonda is just a no no no.

Apparently Jeffers is injured which is interesting as we arenow down to three fit strikers. I agree Nonda should not start, but I don't have much choice. Oh and remember Phillpl that Tugay is suspended.

My team:

----------McCarthy---Nonda

---Peter Savage Bentley Gallagher

----Gray Ooijer Henchoz Emerton

-----------------Freidal

Sparky's likely team IMO:

----------------McCarthy Nonda

----Pedersen Savage Bentley Emerton

-------Gray------Ooijer--- Henchoz----Niell

-----------------------Freidal

[Eddie]

3-0 Rovers (I want to be optimistic for at least the next 24 hours)

[Daremz]

Zurab and Tugay out, that'll be a hell of a fixture, Fulham are actually doing very, very well.

Brad on goal, Neill, Henchoz, Ooijer and Grey in defense, Bentley, Savage, Emerton and Pedersen in midfield, McCarthy and Nonda upfront. We'll do fine.

[RoyRover]

We have to win this one. Fulham is the type of team that we need to be taking three points off at home. I think we'll win this one 3-1. McCarthy to get two and Nonda to bag another.

[Ricky]

Fulham have won 3 of the last 4 ties at Ewood.

Very tricky but one we need to win.

[vyeo]

Rovers 1 (Gamst)

Fulham 0

[James No. 7]

1-0 to the Rovers. McCarthy to score.
