wilsoncgp 9,230 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 1 hour ago, Changing Times said: Blackburn finished 15th last season, we beat them at their place and got a draw at our place despite playing the game with 10 men for 70 mins. They've lost both of their league games so far and only managed to scrape past Oldham in the cup with two goals in injury time I think? This isn't a dig at you but why do we insist on talking mediocre teams up as though they are something else? They are at best a middling Championship side with a couple of good players. To be fair, we might not be any more than that this season but I can't describe Blackburn as a decent side based on what I've seen last season and at the start of this one. That doesn't mean I think we're gonna win because I don't know where we are at as a team right now ? I think that's what it is essentially, I don't think we are much better than them. Right now, I think we're both decent sides and not much else. I think they're capable of doing better than they have and I expect us to do worse than we did in terms of last season's performances.

Smoggydownsouth 1,621 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Friend for Coulson tomorrow and I think the rest will stay the same. Link to post Share on other sites

Woody said Friend covers 2 positions for us and is delighted to have him back. I think Friend is definitely in. I just hope he's in for Shotton and we give Bola a chance at left back again. Admittedly Bola wasn't great against Crewe, I mean very few were. But I reckon Shotton gives a goal away tomorrow if he starts. Hope that if he does play he proves me wrong, though.

Southernboro 7 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 I am going for a positive 2-0 with Wing scoring anytime. Also 7 shots on target, and Ayala being booked. Just in case any one cares ? 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Well, at some point he's going to have to pitch the new lads in because I doubt they were signed to be back up players. Not if they were Woodgate's top targets or whatever.

Ever come home steaming after just popping out for one or two.....? Tomorrrow, I think if Friend is fit he has to move into the centre next to Ayala. The full backs I would guess will be Howson and Coulson after the no-shows midweek, meaning Clayton keeps his place with Wing and Mcnair. Up top I cant see him dropping Ass for Browne and the other 2 dont deserve to be dropped so Fletch Britt and Marv for me. I would like to see Marv and Fletcher swap sides a bit, gives Blackburn something to keep an eye on and can identify a weakness. Britt needs a proper goal or 2 from open play as he must be kicking himself after another penalty miss. I wouldnt be averse to Fletcher or Mcnair taking our penalties from now on 1 Link to post Share on other sites

He's given a goal away every game so far I think so of course he will tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites
whitey 5 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 I imagine bola should be more fit than friend since he’s just come back from injury, so should start? And what’s the deal with coulson I’ve missed what’s happened? ? Link to post Share on other sites

whitey 5 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Game day! Think this could go either way to be honest but we need to start putting points on the board so let’s say...win? Link to post Share on other sites
Denzel Zanzibar 6,931 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 I've got a bad feeling about Downing today, it would be typical of him to turn it on against us. Also a bit worried they might target Dijksteel like they did the other week when he was still a Charlton player. Could be better starting Howson at RB with him on the bench.

You think Dijksteel will start? Surely howson will keep his place? Yeah Link to post Share on other sites
