We lose most of our games on the road, specially night matches. We'll need a dogged rear guard operation, a moment of genius up front and a slice of luck. I'm just not sure we will get any of the above. I bet you said that before we played West Brom last month 😏

Do they? Anyone can beat anyone in this league as we know. Armstrong playing well for them, they seem to do ok without impressing anyone. Be tough but won harder games

I thought we were playing Blackburn, or any Championship side, not Barcelona a win as as likely as a defeat nothing between the sides on current form or actual ability

They look a very ordinary average side, like a lot of teams in this division, apart from WBA at home no one has really looked like they have a lot of quality. They don't have any real stand out players that can be described as game changers or match winners and even our fragile defence on their day are good enough to cope with what they have to offer. Gouranga. What about Leeds at home? They took the piss

They play attractive football, as Mowbrays sides always do, and the worry for us is around the off the ball movement which we don't always track. I'd be happy with a 2-2 now but if the boss can mastermind a resolute 0-1 away with I'll be delighted.

Blackburn have typically performed well against us and while Dack has been great they’ve played well as a team. They play with energy and intensity and in the past we’ve rolled over when teams appear to want the points. It’ll be an interesting game and a test for us. I have no confidence in keeping a clean sheet so it’s about how we react when we concede for me.

We can beat anybody on our day. The problem is we aren’t consistent enough. We could easily beat Blackburn and then lose to Luton. Next two games 6 points is possible, 4 would be positive but I’m thinking anywhere from 1-3.

Gouranga. He’s a bit good tbh. 11 this season. Some decent goals there. That music is horrible though, insipid as fuck.

Either way, 2 wins from the next 3, however they come, would be a great return and is very achievable.

If they're a very ordinary, average side, what are we?
It's a tough game, every away game is in this league. I don't know what has to happen for people to realise that, but I thought being a relegation battle would have rammed this home by now. A point would be a decent result.

Leeds absolutely shat on us too as you say.

And on balance they would of course be better obtained at Luton. A must not lose game.

Player for player we should be beating them comfortably. However, team for team makes it a more level playing field. The damage to our players’ morale by previous regimes is badly affecting our ability to compete as a team. Thank goodness O’Neill came along to bring a measure of teamwork to our group of individuals. However, it is a work in process and will take a while longer to sort out properly. I'm flabbergasted, March.
Positivity? From you? And not mentioning Tone? Hallelujah I think we've cracked the case.

If Tom Thumb turns up, we stand a chance, of at least a point, but if not,i think we may struggle with ten men,as we have in other matches.

Everyone seems to think Blackburn will beat us - why? They look a very ordinary average side, like a lot of teams in this division, apart from WBA at home no one has really looked like they have a lot of quality. They don't have any real stand out players that can be described as game changers or match winners and even our fragile defence on their day are good enough to cope with what they have to offer. Gouranga. Got some real good players, Dack of course is out, Gallagher who I really like I think is touch and go and Armstrong a real talent. Got a lad in midfield, name escapes me, Lewis someone, looked good when I've watched them on TV. Last night's results went real well for them and a great chance for them to make up ground. I agree are not spectacular but really don't think anyone is in the league.
