Derby(A) Draw 2-2 - Points - 1

Sheff W (H) Win 2-1 - Points - 3

Birmingham(A) Draw 1-1 - Points - 1

Ipswich (H) Win 3-1 - Points - 3

N.Forest (H) Win 3-2 - Points - 3

Points Haul - 11

Fortress Ewood returns! We concede at least 1 goal every game! but we do have the strikers who can score!

Apart from 3 or 4 good teams the Championship is not at its best so whilst perhaps optimistic the above is doable against the opposition we have. OH.............and we'll be pushing for the Playoffs

I'm off to see my shrink, nice man, makes me lie on a couch and talk

OH.............and we'll be pushing for the Playoffs

Don't. You'll have some on here committing Hari Kari

According to my Blue tinted spectales we will and with some ease.

I had a bad day yesterday and knew that today would be even worse, and it is! Rovers win yesterday was an unexpected ray of Sunshine - I decided to bask in it even to the detriment of commonsense

[philipl]

38 games to get 46 points for safety.

Par for the course from the next 5 games then is nearly 7 points....

Just cannot see us stopping leaking at the back so my hunch is 3 or 4 points.

Incidentally, both the other two clubs in the bottom three have beaten us so far this season. In fact if you look at the league positions of the teams we have played, we had an absolute softest of soft set of fixtures to open this season. If we had an ordinary mid-table side Rovers would have been top now.

[Gav]

We won't make serious progress on the pitch until Coyle sorts out the defence. This was always his Achilles heel and I seriously doubt his ability to do it. Hasn't with any of his other clubs.

Interesting to note that Brighton haven't conceded a league goal since Duffy joined them.

Is that right? Didn't think he was that good!

[K-Hod]

Nah, Gav, that's not right. They lost their first two games 2-0 that he played in. (Newcastle and Brentford).The loss at Newcastle was the day after he signed.....

Fair enough, they've won their last 2, 1-0.

You're spot on if you forget the two against Brentford and two against Newcastle.

[Gav]

Shouldn't believe everything i read, you're right K-Hod, not conceded in last 2 games.

Heard last week his contract had certain stipulations if he signed again, the club wouldn't honor those so he left.

But he's gone now and our defense is an absolute shambles, even worse than when Duffy was banging them in his own net.

[Husky]

I only just realised the original 5 games of this thread haven't yet been completed

I guess the season is already becoming a drag when that happens.

Wasn't Duffy at fault for the 2 Newcastle goals or am I as bad a reader as Gav?!!

I thought it was a good idea to restart straight after a win as may not have the chance to do that too often this season........despite my earlier posts.......................im back reverse gear :(

He was getting a fair bit of stick on twitter from some Seagulls fans recently so not sure he's gone down a storm there yet. Nowhere near the class of Scott Dann and never will be imo. I hate Dann with a passion as well for the pish he took whilst here when he clearly could've done a lot better.

Wonder if they use the same agents etc ?

Well I'll be walking down Livesey Branch Road expecting we can win, which will be the first time this season.

Why? Nothing more than a couple of wins always puts a spring in the step and the last couple of games have shown some improvements.

[Al]

We have a match tomorrow night (27th September) Is nobody interested enough to start a thread?

[blue kiwi]

well rovers met the expected point tally i set,7pts out of the last 5 games.

next 5 games

birmingham a

ipswich h

forest h

bristol city a

wolves h

i reckon we can get 6pts out of these games,8 needed though.

[rigger]

I reckon we will win three on the bounce, against Ipswich, Forest, and Bristol, to try and dampen down protests at the Wolves game. Thus nine points.

[Rover_Shaun]

I think we will win none

[Husky]

birmingham a LOSE

ipswich h DRAW

forest h DRAW

bristol city a DRAW

wolves h DRAW

Not bad - A four game unbeaten streak.

[blue kiwi]

out of this batch of 5 games we have 4pts after 3 games,can we get 4pts from the next 2 games to meet my target.

[tomphil]

That batch of games will probably end up averaging a point a game after a loss to Bristol and a draw home to Wolves. Highly likely to be repeated throughout the season and may not be good enough come May.

[47er]

We'll beat Wolves, I'm sure of it! Sod's Law!

[Athlete]

We need to kick on at Bristol
