Re: Crucial 7 days at Ewood ? ....
We have nothing else to amuse ourselves with this season now, so this may well be the silver lining for us in a terrible year of football. That is a rancid set of fixtures and the really important thing was Eustace not giving them a bounce - if anything they’ve seemingly got worse.
