Decent effort by Mowbray and the team in fairness to get up there with the negativity around the club ,could easily have dropped down to the fourth division. Really hope they get back where they belong ... in the fizzy pop league !

The Mariana Trench is 38,000 ft deep. Only 10% of the ocean floor has been mapped. I have no doubt that somewhere in the 90% there is something that can adequately describe the gulf between the two clubs, but until we discover it you're just going to have to use your imagination.

Remember Wigan WALKING League One a few seasons ago and then going straight back down ? Wigan again looking nailed on for promotion. Remember Bolton going up last season..........

That's what awaits you, I hope you do go up just so you can go back down again :lol:

Should walk the league, anything less is failure.

I was hoping for a 3rd place finish with a loss at Wembley ( when the boycott is suspended )
However I have you as run away champions, which if happens with wolves, man city and Luton with City winning the CL will scoop my friend 25k

So a bit of a no lose so far, just depends when he bottles it and cashes out

Dream on Saxo, you'll struggle in the Championship unless the Venkys throw a shed load of money at the team and they aren't going to do that

Nah. They know they're already at a prem giant playing in the wrong league. Don't judge us by Burnley's standing. :)

Yes, you should, of course, be playing in league 2.

The gap is closing, that's not a gap it's a interminable chasm.
Even if you win promotion you'd still be at least a decade behind us.
Your future is to yo yo between league 1 and the championship,whilst we mix it up with footballs elite. :lol:

Get yr Johhny Halliday cd's on Saxo, you effin prat.

Ne-ne-ne-ne-ne, Saxo listens to Johnny Halliday, that's even more of a joke than his supporting of Blackburn Rovers.

You realise just how far bastards have fallen when this numpty is celebrating beating the mighty Peterborough and yet still being behind such footballing tyrannosauruses as Wigan, Shrewsbury and Scunthorpe in the league table.

The gap has never been bigger, we are literally an a different footballing and financial stratosphere to those horrible cocky scumbags.

Another gap. Of the 12 founder members of the league Burnley are currently the highest placed while Rovers proudly occupy 10th spot above Notts County and Accrington (sort of)

Couldn't give a monkeys about Barstewards, they will never be above Burnley both financially and league level in my life time and I am certain they will go bust if I manage to survive and not depart this mortal coil in the next year or so, more important things to think about like what is for tea, is Corrie on tonight and will it rain tomorrow?
Barstewards is now a term for insignificant in my household!!!

3pts tomorrow setting off now for a few beers in Hove tonight COME ON YOU CLARETS!!!!

Well done Rovers. Not looking like there will be a return of the east Lancs derby next season ( if they keep this form up) .
Mind you Accrington are looking very impressive.

As someone who has lived in Blackburn for over 40 years I can confirm that Saxoman is a complete freak, they either hate us, and nothing you can say will change that, or they actually give us credit for what we are doing, no middle ground, which is what he is trying to promote, let's ignore him
