Until January he can only implement half his ideas. He can change tactics now, then in Jan he can change some of the players. Hopefully we have made decent progress in the interim.

Same here. I had earmarked this game at the start of the season as a definite. Low and behold I find out 2 weeks ago that the wife has arranged a girls day out in Leeds and therefore I have the 3 kids today and night. Gutted. Enjoy everyone. COYB.

Pussywhipped?. Will she have your balls in her handbag while in Leeds. What's this world coming to?

I'm delighted with a win, I would have taken a draw at 3.00. 5 days is no time to make any real sort of impact. At least Lambert will have seen what he's up against, our strengths and weaknesses. Sounds like he brought a bit of luck with him. One thing about Bowyer, he'd no bloody luck at all.

The problem with Bowyer is that we relied on luck far too often, and seemed to accept that we needed luck to get something out of a game. I get the feeling Lambert will want a stronger attitude than that.

Huge game next week with Wednesday. Win that and we are right back in the mix.

Then we have three games against lower half teams. 2 of which are at home.

Optimism is a wonderful thing.

Good start, need to beat Wednesday next Saturday, hope there is surge in support. Need a feel good factor to emerge, Paul, over to you?

I would imagine after winning today Lambert and the players will quite rightly say it's over to supporters to get down Ewood. Hope we get a good crowd

Today's win was great but performances will need to improve for the crowd to play their part. Trundling the ball around until we go behind isn't the way we need to be starting. Start off at 100 % effort ! Get your foot on your opponents throat and keep it there.

Great start for Lambert.

We weren't really at the races until we got our first goal - perhaps trying too hard to impress.

Preston played some good stuff down the left side and Henley was all at sea in that first half.

Great pen from Rhodes - never looked like missing.

For about 10 minutes after our second, visibly, you could see the confidence soaring - pity we couldn't keep PNE at bay for just a few more minutes.

Hanley and Duffy immense - in contrast, are there any central defenders as agricultural as PNE's, boy those two really are League 1 standard.

Great Rovers' support - sadly, we had to sit on hands in Tom Finney when Rovers scored - sadly, a handful who couldn't contain their joy were exposed by the knobbers and ejected.

Liked the way we pressed high up but did we did seem to run out of steam in the last 15 minutes.

Onwards and upwards, belief, confidence and momentum key.

Finally, is our new goalie coach Laurence Batty Dr Phil Batty's brother ? They certainly seem to have eaten the same number of pies !

Happy days - the Rovers' buzz is back.

Funny game football - played far better under Bowyer, but couldn't get a win.

Amazed at the referee - such an experienced referee shouldn't be bias towards one team. Amazed at the number of fouls Garner did on both Hanley and Duffy without us getting a free kick - as soon as Rhodes did similar he gave away a foul - go figure !

Whatever the performance - the result was absolutely key - while winning players and fans will buy into what Lambert is trying to do - which in truth may take some time.

I think we can be a bit like this as fans. I know we have been through a lot but if a new manager of the calibre of lambert, and a win against a local rival doesn't get a few more down Ewood I will be disappointed

It'll take a fair amount of time to develop a really effective pressing game. I don't expect that side of our game to be up to speed before Xmas. We need to work on our core fitness.
