I do agree, yet we more than matched Preston for a while in that game, beat Bristol City away, took a point at Swansea and beat both Sheffield Wednesday and Brentford at home. At least two of those sides will make the play offs though.

When I look at other teams in the division, who are likely to make the play offs, I begin to think in theory we should have a chance. Obviously only 4 will make it and if we assume that Leeds and WBA will take the top two spots, then 4 from Fulham, Brentford, Sheff Weds, Preston, Forest, Bristol City, Swansea and Cardiff, should take those spots. I have always thought that a team good enough to be promoted, is one that stands out and plays exciting football, but don't see that from most of these play off contenders. In theory, that should therefore mean we have a chance, yet in reality, we are going nowhere near.

There is one constant in all of this and as I have stated many times, we will never succeed under these owners. After the win at Bristol City and the draw V Swansea, we looked like we had turned a corner and were in with a real chance of getting somewhere. A real big rallying cry and some sort of impetus, to give us the boost to get what we should have been able to from the following 3 games would have now left us sitting pretty. Instead of that, we got the tame insipid performances V Wigan and Brum and the surrender yesterday. A two point return from those 3 fixtures tells you all you need to know about our structure. The foundations are not there and although we have them shored up now and then, eventually the cracks appear again and we return to type. This will never change under this ownership, no matter how man false dawns there are.

Keeps opponents guessing about the strength of the team and the line up.

There is an article in the Mirror about it. Not certain it’s true, but certainly being reported.

If we do lose him, then that plus the loss of Dack, could spell the end of any hopes of the top six. It it would be a very rapid loss of two key players and wasn’t what anyone would have seen coming two weeks ago.

It could be wishful thinking on my part, but they deducted points from Brum last year, for an FFP breach, so if this is also classed as one, then surely the same punishment, must be dished out?

Hopefully they will be given a points deduction for it, but it isn't a formality. I still can't believe what happened with Bolton and how they effectively got away with postponing a fixtures, as they knew they would lose it.

If I’m not mistaken that ended in a 1-0 win for us and earned us a tie against the then mighty Liverpool

The goal for Gallagher will have done him the power of good. Nice that he is saying what he is to the fans. I sincerely hope he comes good, bags a few and helps turn the season around properly. The three wins on the bounce, were massively unexpected, so hope we can build on them. A win next week and we are back in the mix.

Agree with Evans having a good game. Tosin looking very good too and for my money, our stand out player so far. Holtby for Rothwell at Half Time, as he is on his arse for me.

What is also very telling about Mowbray's recent comments, is how he was accusing the crowd of being edgy and spikey on Saturday. If the players perform, as they did last night and put in a decent display, they crowd will be as normal as any other. I only saw the game on I Follow, but the crowd were lifted by the teams performance and effort and it seemed to me that they were also buoyed by the starting line up too, so blaming the crowd was a cowards trick IMO.

As Bill Shankly used to say "That Dougie Dooins at full back is crap and so is their keeper, so we will have a field day with these lot, we are playing today". Let's stop worrying about who we are playing and go out and do the business. We have proven we can compete at this level, with the right players in their correct positions, so why complicate things?

If they take any points from the Doncaster game and that proves to be vital come the end of the season, then there could be one almighty court battle. Cancelling that game and giving the reasons they did, was effectively saying, we know we will lose this, so we aren't prepared to play it just now. What if Rovers had decided 6 weeks ago to cancel a game, due to all the injuries we had? This can't be allowed to happen and to effectively have got away with it, is a joke. The least that should have happened is the forfeit the fixture, as o points could now be 3.

Incredible really how the club have fallen so badly in them 9 years. It feels like we are constantly one major decision away from oblivion at times for me.

Read it again. I said his agents son. Remember Kean’s agent, he has a son called Myles?

I think it might be something to do with the mods, worries about legal action.

Steve Kean being interviewed, about his time at Ewood on Sky Sports by Ben Shepherd and also his agent, crying because his son was being treated badly by the fans.

No there won't.

At least we can see a player in there, as some of the dross we have had, over the last few years, are more like deep lying divots than pivots, whatever that is!!

The people that Kean were connected to, could have caused more damage to BRFC to anyone in the clubs 144 year history. There are lots of little snippets of information all over the place and if anyone who ever backed the cretin, knew what was really going on, then they are almost as bad. Kean made a packet, as did others and if some of what went on wasn't illegal, I will eat my hat.

That season it would have been a shock for us to have been relegated, as we had just come down from the prem and were favourites for promotion. The place was chaotic and how we managed to stay up, was a minor miracle. It just goes to show, how proper stable ownership is required, otherwise the inevitable happens and of course eventually did. I would love to think things have improved, but sadly they haven't. Despite the good feeling that the last few minutes on Saturday gave us, the bigger picture is till very messy.

Hola amigo. Estamos muy feliz hoy?

Which is why the conspiracy theories keep on doing the rounds. Why would they not sell the club, when all will ever be is a burden round their necks?
