    RLB will not get sacked if we don’t go up. He’s had a great season irregardless.

    BUT you can’t die on the hill that momentum is a myth then get your excuses in before the play offs even start that rotation won’t be the reason if we fail.

    Poor half and this Blackburn team are on the beach. Same as us.

    But I am getting worried with individuals and team level performance. Needs to start ramping up. Football isn't a light switch.

    I don’t think Blackburn are on the beach. They’re on for playoffs if they win their games

    I think you’ve misread what I’m saying mate

    I think momentum is a myth and therefore won’t be blaming rotation as the reason we don’t go up if we don’t?

    We have looked like a mid table team for a while. I reckon our goals in play and stats have us every low.

    I am a little surprised at how people are just writing off games. It's professional sport man.

    This is a team of players that have played together for say 40 games every week. The back line have played a stupid amount of games together as have the midfield and attack

    were not throwing players in who’ve never played together. If the performance doesn’t improve with a full strength team then we don’t deserve to go up it’s nothing to do with rotation.

    No chance now. I’d say 1000/1

    Boro play Coventry last game

    mate everyone agrees it’s not ideal, but some are remaining optimistic, you don’t need to keep point scoring so that you can say you were right all along if we lose.

    Wasting your time mate. It’s been negative since game 1 of the season.

    Won’t be the case. I do fancy our chances just nowhere near as much as some
