Borodane 6,301 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 That certainly eased my mind a bit about mondays game. I appreciate that games in the championship go back and forth and you can't expect anything, but Blackburn certainly showed that they are not all that, and will also be without their main goalscorer, who has scored about half of their goals. The table is going to look great if we actually manage to beat them. Looking at the weekends fixture you'd expect Bournemouth and WBA to win and likely QPR too. Huddersfield play at Reading so big chance they'll win too. But ultimately all we can do is win our own games, and I'm quite confident for this game. Link to post Share on other sites
smogsterking the Inspirati 2,490 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 I think we are well overdue a win against them they've been quite the bogey team for us in recent years. I can see us possibly playing Balogun instead of Connelly but more or less the same team that started on Saturday. It would be nice to see Payero get 20+ minutes as well. I'm going to go 2-1 Boro 1 Link to post Share on other sites
edinboro 815 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Blackburn seemed to play 5-2-3 last night which was weird. Wilder and Knill watching on will either think we are going to fill our boots or it was a bad day at the office. I think Jones and Balogan could tear their defence apart if they play like last night. Mogga has a great record against us - I think he almost over compensates to prove he doesn't want us to win! Should be a humdinger with nigh on 3k Boro fans there. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Borodan 16 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 2-1 Boro 🤞 Does anyone have suggestions for parking around Ewood Park? Link to post Share on other sites
Rishworthian 166 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Ewood Park has loads of parking - only problem is getting out which can be very slow. Can't remember the cost might be a tenner but no walk which suits me 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Borodan 16 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Thanks for that. Personally I'd rather park a bit further away and walk so I'm not stuck getting out. Link to post Share on other sites
Downsouth 6,328 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Wonder if Ayala is looking forward to this game or will he do one of his annual unknown injury stunts to get out of playing? Mind you not many ex team mates to play against is there? Link to post Share on other sites

Naisby 736 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 I bet Ayala would have been unavailable for the game, but due to covid he might have taken better care of himself. Link to post Share on other sites
RiseAgainst 3,793 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Pretty much every time Ayala played for us, I felt we got away with a penalty decision. Let's hope Blackburn don't. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Borodane 6,301 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Ayala came off the bench yesterday so he should be in the squad for monday. Link to post Share on other sites
sanddancer 1,967 Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 I have a bottle of gin ready to celebrate our win. It’s the only spirit I know you drink out of huge fish bowel size glasses. Link to post Share on other sites
