v Millwall (a) - Monday 8th May

[chaddyrovers]

Come on Rovers. Let's do this. 

JDT's Blue and White Army 🔵 ⚪️!!!

[BlackburnEnd75]

Sunderland don't look to have any cbs by the looks of it. And north end have got 3 strikers on the pitch. Wouldn't rule out PNE doing us a favour there.

Great, Keith Andrews in the studio. He's like the angel of death that lad.

Mowbray will do us on the last day.

He usually does us in January so it's an upgrade.

Who would have imagined us in this position when we were 4th and just beat Sheff Utd 1-0 on March 4th 🤨

[davulsukur]

Sakes, it's all going to end in disappointment isn't it. 

Typical Rovers

A real concern for Rovers today will be the lack of height in the squad, with Millwall having scored 23 times from set plays. Rovers scored their eighth against Luton Town, the second lowest in the division.

 

Even worse now Gally is missing.

There's so many bad omens we'll probably win!

Really concerns me this. Multiple recent goals conceded from either set pieces or crosses.

I didn't, mid table with nothing to play for I thought.

Dreading this tbh, back to work in half hour, don't know if that's a blessing in disguise or not 🤦‍♂️

What a horrible stat. Only Burnley and Sheffield United have spent more time in the top 6 than us this season.

Yet it’s still JDT saying that we are lucky to be where we are and that we’re overachieving.

tony will have overthought as usual and sunderland will be ultra cautious,expect north end to snuff them out easily and score from a set piece

Hes inherited some good young forward players up there that he seems to throw on and let them do their thing and it's worked well for them.

He's at least 2 windows away from his full on jobs for the boys subs for rotating, different systems for every opposition stuff.

[Bethnal]

I only expect to see 100% effort and commitment. It’s not in our hands but the one thing that is, is throwing absolutely everything at this game.

COYB

[Hasta]

Little old Blackburn punching above their weight to be able to compete on the last day of the season against the might of Millwall, Luton, Coventry and a newly promoted Sunderland. 

[doctorryan]

We'll win, one of the other 2 will draw & the other will get an injury time winner via a ref's bad call.

[NeilInBristol]

Oh dear. Hedges up front..hope he has been practicing his shooting

He's been badly let down - any sort of competent Championship striker and we're looking ahead to the Playoffs (if not automatic promotion). 

We've overachieved massively with the actual squad we've got.

It's obvious a lot of people grossly overestimated how good the teams in this division were at the start of the season. Being wrong about expectations because of overestimation isn't a good reason to be thankful we're on the verge of throwing away a playoff spot in an absolutely pathetic manner for the second season running.

This isn't your father's Blackburn Rovers. It's the husk of the great club that Jack Walker re-built.

206 days we've been in top 6. only Burnley sheff utd been there longer. That's insane. So when JDT says we don't expect to be going for play offs you know he is chatting bs..
