Blackburns run of fixtures is very hard I can see them found down.

7 games left and they have Leeds, Leicester, Southampton & Coventry all to play.

Their fate is pretty much entirely in the hands of Sheff Wed and Huddersfield because Blackburn will be lucky to get about 4 more points.

Real shame Sheff didn’t hold on today against Swansea.

I’ve only watched one of their games this season when they were on tv against Newcastle in the cup. They didn’t look a bad side that day and I wouldn’t be too surprised if they picked up enough points from their remaining games as difficult as they look on paper.

Yes, I thought they were unlucky to go out on pens, but it was great to watch.

You’ve watched all their games,you’re probably typing this from Deadwood.

I’ve only ever been to their ground once and that was in the away end (though not watching Burnley - it was a game against Arsenal in the league cup on a midweek night and it was only about £10 a ticket). Probably about 15 years ago I’d guess.

Sure there’s more to it than half a game. But if Ipswich win they will be just 3 points behind where we were at this stage of the season.

Ipswich have obviously had another strong season and they impressed against us in the cup albeit both teams made lots of changes, this is the first time I've seen them this season and if that's the standard then we will get 100+ points again next season no fear (assuming there is no miracle this season)

For balance, if we are to base things on one game, they’re playing better than we did at Ewood.

I had them down for the play-offs before a ball was kicked based purely on their performance against us in the cup. Their biggest issue is going to be keeping hold of McKenna

Warton was the difference, he's going to be a top player imho. We had the pressure of trying to win the league too and we all know what pressure does to people. Either way, McKenna has done extremely well.

I thought we did very well considering the scale of change. Were we not top of the league after 15 games?
