    What a time to be a lads fan, long may it continue (Reid kept it going for 2 seasons so Mogga has a challenge).

    Hhhaaawwwwaaaaayyyyyyy the lads

    Yeah I meant more I wouldn't be starting Pritchard in a central midfield role in a 2, asking for trouble. We'd get overrun in there. Jobe is more suited to that role. With Pritchard in the free role ahead.

    yeh that was my point - I’d have Jobe play if Ekwah is still out, but if Ekwah can play I’d play Pritchard in front of him and rest Jobe.

    If Ekwah is out Jobe has to play alongside Neil. Unless they’re ready to give Rigg a start. Which would be some statement.

    As I got a pretty good prediction for last weekend at QPR here goes for this one.
    I think it will be tight on the night as these are a well organised side with the potential to be in and around the play off picture, but we are a stronger squad than last year and I believe that Blackburn will be playing attack minded football which will suit us.
    my prediction is 1-3 with a goal for Hemir coming on as a sub (one of his chances will go in soon)

    Wouldn’t be a bad result. Keep the unbeaten run going.

    Guess the team mostly picks itself now. I’d imagine 2 out of Pritchard, Ba and Roberts will play RW and CAM with Jobe dropping to centre mid

    Ekwah is a blow. Chance for someone else though. Wonder if Adil goes in with Neil being more conservative. Adil has played centrally before and he impressed at QPR. Shame Cirkin is out as Huggins would have been a good shout. Could Ba play the 8 to Neils 6? Good luck Tony with the choices.
