BRFC1995 Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Just done the BBC predictor 4 home wins for Rovers plus away at Stoke and a home draw. Optimistic I know.... Here's my final table. overly generous to ourselves i think although i did have the same 3 teams relegated, it required us to win our final game to be sure gonna have to redo my predictor factoring in how garbage villa have become since they signed heskey, may not only be spuds that benefit amongst the teams around us. last thing we need is the top teams going to pieces on the run in

roversmum Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Spurs winning one-nil against Villa. Our match against them may not be as easy as some think (although the goal was somewhat due to a Brad special!)
Guest Kamy100 Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Spurs winning one-nil against Villa. Our match against them may not be as easy as some think (although the goal was somewhat due to a Brad special!) Agree. Spurs team has a lot of pace and this year Rovers have really struggled against pacey teams.
1864roverite Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Spuds comforatable at 2-0 up. Poor Villa effort. Spurs look to use Lennon every time down the right. Gaylord Bentley benched again.
jonv Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 2-1 - Carew with a towering header! (2 more in 5 minutes to keep my accumulator alive )
Anti-Dingle-Brigade Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 If Villa can equalise or even win this, it'd be giving us so much help.
BRFC1995 Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 they're some f'ing useless that villa, dreams of spuds in championship dashed. Villa bought heskey changed their winning approach to accomodate that lump and now they are cack and they play all our relegation rivals, wonderful.
SoccerHQ Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Think Sunderland could be the team to be from a bit higher up to be sucked into the battle looking at their remaining. Poor effort losing at home ot a Wigan team already on holiday. Boro, Newcastle and WBA still the three to go down for me, seen nothing this weekend to change that view.
Backroom DE. Posted March 15, 2009 Backroom Posted March 15, 2009 Newcastle, Boro, WBA looks like the best bet to fall out of the Premiership at this time. Everybody from 11th - 20th is still in it, but realistically, I see it as WBA already being down, with a selection of Boro, Newcastle, Pompey, Rovers, Stoke and Hull to get relegated with them. It will be an interesting end to the season to say the least.
bazza Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 I've been saying since January that the three who came up will go down. That was after Hull had started their bad run but were still way up in the top half of the table. Newcastle look favourites to upset my prediction yet I still maintain it'll be WBA, Stoke C, and Hull C.
Hughesy Posted March 15, 2009 Posted March 15, 2009 Iv re-done the predictor - tried to be really harsh on us and still got us ending on 42 points in 13th. West Brom and Boro down with games to spare - final day battle between Stoke, Hull & Newcastle. I had stoke losing out.
Backroom DE. Posted March 15, 2009 Backroom Posted March 15, 2009 Being harsh I had us 15th/16th. We'd have to lose a lot of winnable games at this point to go down (that, or 3 or 4 teams below us all have to hit an amazing run of form).
thenodrog Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Iv re-done the predictor - tried to be really harsh on us and still got us ending on 42 points in 13th. West Brom and Boro down with games to spare - final day battle between Stoke, Hull & Newcastle. I had stoke losing out. I doubt you are being harsh if the likes of RSC, Grella, Givet and Warnock are out for any thength of time.
USABlue Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 We'd have to lose a lot of winnable games at this point to go down This is Blackburn Rovers, we are more than capable of doing that.
OscarRaven Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Danger zone =<30.5pts Rovers on 30pts are back in the danger zone! 3pts needed to get out, a draw isn't enough.
Billy Castell Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Spurs are safe I think. It seems to be that you can draw a name out of the hat to decide who goes down with West Brom. As soon as one team looks safe, they drop points and get sucked back in. It will go down the the last game, and 3-5 teams will be sweating on two places.
SoccerHQ Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 3 home wins out of five needed for Rovers. No problem.
Anti-Dingle-Brigade Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 Our home form is terrible, think it's the crap atmosphere and eagerness to jump on the players backs that causes it. They are too frightened of making mistakes and hearing predictable groans and jeers.
RevidgeBlue Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 3 home wins out of five needed for Rovers. No problem. You obviously haven't seen many of our home games then. Our home form is terrible, think it's the crap atmosphere and eagerness to jump on the players backs that causes it. They are too frightened of making mistakes and hearing predictable groans and jeers. I think having no midfield is a rather more telling factor.
Hughesy Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 To be fair under Allardyce we have only lost to Villa at home. Im hoping we can win at least 1 of our next 2 at home. 4pts is a minimum needed. West Brom look doomed after tonight - just cant win, not even at home.
Anti-Dingle-Brigade Posted March 17, 2009 Posted March 17, 2009 I think having no midfield is a rather more telling factor. Riiight. And we suddenly have a midfield away from home, do we?
