If the players have reverted to Sam's infallible tactics then we will stay up every season surely?

Correct. You're learning.

"and will happen again next season if he is still in charge."

You are clearly not.

Brilliant first half. Dire second, but they were always going to come at us. Thankfully, WEVARE STAYING UP.

Fair play to Wolves. They are a good club.

Wolves: Images of grown men crying hugging their children at the final whistle were truly emotional.

Rovers:

I don't undertand why Rovers chose to relinquish ball control for the last 45 minutes.... i'm not saying press the advantage---- just regulate the proceedings. Wolverhampton came out fired up for the last half but if we had held up the ball that pressure could have been defused in 10-15 minutes. I suppose we could have done with a Tugay type that would have faciliated that.

I'll be most attentive to what Venky's do w/ Kean in the next few weeks.... no way he deserves another SNIFF at our first team.

For just one day, can we not argue about whether Kean or the Raos or the French-Canadian Banking Mafia That Secretly Controls The World kept us up/down/will keep us up/down and just celebrate that we won and WE ARE STAYING UP!!!!

Thank God for that... an amazing first half, but a dire second. We just about did enough, and I'm glad to see Birmingham take the drop. Sad to see Blackpool go, but oh well, we've stayed up and that's all that really matters!

Now let's get in a real manager and strengthen this team so we're ready to go again in August!!

Brilliant play in the first half- second half Wolves were clearly hungrier and their second goal was contender for goal of the month.

I am VERY happy to see Blues down and Wolves are staying up.

Well done Steve Kean and the lads.

It was never a free kick though!

crickey went from relaxed to nervous breakdown, although we could have conceded another didnt half turn me into a nervous wreak. congratulations to the boys never had us down to win at wolves last game of the season, samba immense, junior amazing again, if I could level any critisism its that we sat right back second half which allowed wolves back into the game

what a final day, im glad its over!

Brilliant first half which I put down to Rovers seemingly better prepared for the tension of this game so well done to everyone involved this week for that, and I include Steve Kean even though he buggered off for a couple of days.

Terrible second half, and I wasn't surprised as we have been like that too often this season, half time team talks must be bloody awful!

Hopefully the second half may have put doubts in the owners minds and they see the light and get rid now. One can only hope or I don't see how we will get enough points next season without a major turn around in tactical thinking from the current management team.

Brilliant result, I honestly thought we'd be relying on other results but by half time our safety was in the bag. Despite Wolves coming back in the second half, by the time they got their 2nd goal the other results still kept us up so in all I would say I was much more relaxed that I thought I would be today.

Stan Collymore has said he'll do a couple of laps around Ewood Park to honour a bet he made a few weeks ago when he was sure we'd go down. He's now saying on his show "Surely Steve Kean has to stay after the game today", so basically we should ignore all the games before hand and just judge him on this one game. We stayed up despite Steve Kean, not because of him.

i was biting my nails and fidgeting at lunchtime, never mind during the game...LOL.

i am just relieved that we have stayed up and i will be very interested as to what happens from now on in, to the beginning of next season.

according to jeff stelling, steve kean has said that we have got far more money to spend than we ever have...so lets see it!!

I was among a number of fans calling for Kean to be fired after the Fulham game- we were wrong, The Raos clearly made the right choice in hindsight- then.

We stayed up because of Kean as well as the players- the table does not lie. Had this been lat season we would have been what 10 points ahead of the drop zone? Freak season glad its over.

Fantastic news.

Have been walking out in the wilds with not a clue what was going on. Got back to the car just in time for 6.00 pm and couldn't believe it.

Well done Rovers though it does seem things were a bit painful second half !!!

Steve Kean got us into the mess in the first place. I'm glad we have had decent results in the last few weeks and today but we should have never have been in the mix today when he took over.
