That could be a really huge point Both now and when we come to May, But we left it late at our joint And really there´s no better way, A habit we had all last year When late goals were often the norm, Thankfully we got one here To keep up our impressive form, But letting three goals in does show That any team here, on their day, Whether they be up high or down low Can still be a threat when they play, But we know that spirit and heart Is one thing our lads do possess, With a boss who won´t just stand apart If things are heading for a mess, And so it was here, with about A quarter of the game to go, We found ourselves down, and near out And time for our young boss to show, As he´s done many times before That he´s not prepared to sit back, And take a defeat on the jaw Without going all out attack, And once more it paid dividends This point feels like three on the day, But the feel good factor that it sends Is worth more in every way, I´m sure that to Kean it must feel Like a defeat and a kick in the teeth, Whereas our lads will enjoy their meal With a point that keeps giving belief. OTBC Enjoy your week all, Yours,
No doubt a huge point, most people where expecting us to maul Blackburn, but they where much better than their league position suggests. Feel some people been getting carried away and forgetting out target is 40 points and anything else is a bonus.
Hi RBF - as you said elsewhere, good to see Holty on the sheet! I knew this was a potential banana skin, but I thought we'd come through it ok! Still, as you say, it feels like a win for us, and I'm sure it feels like a loss to them!
This was always going to be a difficult game and it is a massive point. Shame about the sloppy defending for the first and third goals, but it still means Blackburn have gained no ground on us and we've pulled a further point away from Bolton, Wigan, Wolves, Everton and West Brom
Mr. Marsupial I wasn´t one of those expecting a mauling, I have to say, but then neither was I expecting 6 goals to go in, but very glad that they did, in the end. I´d say we can be very happy lying in 8th, after a quarter of the season has gone.
Totally agree especially against a wounded horse like blackburn. It's 2 points lost for them and we have a 7 point lead on the current relegation zone occupants. Everything can change quickly so its good to be ahead. OTBC
QPR fan in peace! Just watching a recording of motd. Are any of you worried about your keeper? He looks well dodgy to me!
He is usually very reliable but yesterday he was making errors that are not in his normal game. Hopefully a one off, or at worst only has 2 or 3 like that this season
I had a bad feeling about yesterday's match and when we went 3-1 down I really thought that was it.A point in the end was fine with me.
Didn't we score two last goals last time we played Blackburn at home as well? Going on past records, I should have gone for a high scoring draw.
