Give over.

The places I've been. Some nice bars but a lot of run down buildings

Manchester produces deluded neanderthal fans too 😉

[superniko]

Pretty happy with that team. 
3 points here and we can pretty much draw our way to a playoff spot. Let’s get it done Rovers!

Surprised at Thomas recall. He was poor at QPR but Hedges fluffed his chance at Leicester. I like left footed left backs so happy to stick with Pickering. On his current form I’d like to see JRC given an outing in midfield and Brittain restored at right back, his best position. An option later in the game maybe 

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

Glad Morton out.  He'd be useless against an aggressive Sheffield team.  Rest of the team picks itself at the moment.  Although I'd rather Brittain at LB. 

I'd take a point.  3 would be amazing.

Hoping for a big walk on so trying to spread arrival at Ewood as much as possible. 

As a Sky game, I doubt saying there are 500 still at the ticket office will cut much ice at 12.15

Is that you philip? 

[DE.]

Really pleased that JRC's injury appears to have not been serious.

[CambridgeRover]

Happy with the team!! Come on lads, make a statement

[BigBar]

Did we get an expected return Dack for Dack? Know it was a hamstring injury but did it emerge how long he is expected to be out?

[AspRover]

This feels like the game we'd fold under at pretty much any time in the last ten years. I might be putting too much on it but a good performance, even if we lose, would go a long way to making me think we might have a chance.

Under Mowbray this would be a 4:0 get back in your lane and give up on the playoffs game*

 

*this might not be 100% backed up by actual results, but it's damn sure where my expectations would be.

[B16Rover]

Hoping their lack of outright attacking wingers means fullbacks can get more time.  

 

Also hope Sammie Dolan Gallagher et al can keep a back 3 busy

If Mowbray was still here we'd already have lost practically every game in February and be resigned to our fate.

Pitch is looking better than usual

Yeah that's fair, but if we'd somehow got to this position this is definitely the game the wheels would fall off.
