A very good night which will have proven a lot of people wrong. Where's Henry Winter now ?

Particularly good to see two unfairly criticised players in Gueye and Pears be our two best players.

What on earth has Henry Winter got to do with tonight?

They are a completely different side at the moment, their manager's got them playing well. Watched the Liverpool game the other day, the 2 centre halves are monsters

All the.more reason to bring the noise

Let's not get ahead of ourselves! Plenty of football between now and then. Plymouth game is big potential banana skin. 

No I hope above all that they get auto qualification, the thoughts of losing the playoffs to them would actually break me.

Venkys out flag clear at WBA

Well done Rovers fans.

My criticism of the Rovers fans tonight was unjust.  Fair play to them making that journey.  Well done in venkys out flag

FUCK OFF, EUSLESS!!!

Well Big Mac is an monster so should be an feisty game!!

[dallydally]

To be totally honest I didn't see that coming! Well done lads. Keep it going!

Probably the best result this season. 

Outstanding tactics from "Professor" Lowe. I really liked the way he connected with his bench rather than sit in the boss's chair

Gueye has shown his potential. The heatmap doesn't lie, he was everywhere, and his finishing was immaculate. 

Players played their hearts out and our fans were magnificent. 

The result was crucial for us in the race for the playoffs

oh and we stuffed:

Mowbray

Armstrong

Eustace

West Brom home form

Arte et Labore 👊👊

Pears didn’t do a thing wrong but he was in no way our second best player, didn’t they only have 2 on target.

Gueye in a world of his own followed by Dolan and Ribeiro for me 

Thought Trav, Hyam, Buckley were all very good too.

Everyone had a good game really except ACD, even Cantwell managed to play a part 

Need to figure out how we want to use our subs with all the new signings. We need to finish stronger than we have been, we were quite lucky to not concede in the last quarter of the game.

[neophox]

Carter back on saturday. Hopefully Batth is just a knock. But seems with Sanderson we got more pace in the backline.

Can't believe I'm writing this but give the job to Lowe until the end of the season. 

All the players seem to like him and there's obviously a very close knit group there at the minute. Let them finish the job.

Hell no. Now is the time to bring in someone with experience.  Backroom appointments never worked out long term

[booth]

Fantastic second half after a lethargic first half.

Big Mak seems a different player, that first goal was unreal.

[neophox]

Who did find Ribeiro and Gueye....quality signings..... Cantwell not so..

Nobody saw that coming… except Pep Guardiolowe

[StubbsUK]

Just underlines the fact that the issues at Ewood are NOT ON the pitch.

[M_B]

Almost as if Eustace's heart hasn't been in it for the last few weeks.

Gueye immense in both boxes, all the lads really good tonight but boy have we missed Trav, captain's performance.

Tronstad, Carter and Ohashi not far away, it's a cracking job for someone.

[Tom]

Let’s not give Lowe the job, thank him for his service and keep him in a job if the new man wants him but you’ll very very rarely see that kind of move pay off

@rock steady do the business please 

 

[Groundhog]

Anyone saying give it Lowe 5 mins after the final whistle deserves an instant ban 😂 (joke) 

Those commentators though, so biased: “WBA deserve to be level with those two disallowed goals for a clear foul and an offside”

[Andy]

Done the player ratings and saw that Ribeiro, Dolan and Buckley were all way below (circa 6 ratings).

If you can't see that all 3 had very good games tonight, you either didn't watch the game or you have an agenda.

[neophox]

We really need to get this appointment right of a new manager!

Travis was brilliant tonight, we have missed that. Be great to get Tron and Yuki back. We'll need Carter if Batth is out for any length of time.

[neophox]

Ribeiros not an loan. Permanent until end of season.
