It’s more the travelling and him having no rest , all the rest of the squad had a week off , he was rested against derby to give him a break

Crazily Jcs not playing makes it more likely we can get him in the summer

I believe he's back at Chelsea for his rehab Pete
Obviously things very uncertain at Chelsea at present so the legion of players in JCH's position are probably pretty low down the list of priorities for whoever takes over

Does that mean we are more likely to see Shipley playing in the forward positions as maatsen will have to revert into the defensive role if bidwell is playing in the back 3. Limits our options going forward

Better with Shipley at LWB and Maatsen further forward if you're playing them both imo.

What´s his overall injury record though? No doubt he has looked good at times for us, but he seems to have missed a lot of games too.

Missed a fair few at Brum with injury too didn’t he?

I think he’s quality but it’s a fair question when you run as lean a squad as we do.

If Shipley has to feature i'd rather it be LWB, otherwise might as well get Sky Blue Sam in midfield, least he wouldn't be anonymous

Oooo bitchy I know but enough is enough,

There's been a few comments on here from people saying they would be happy to have him as back up LWB next season.

On paper, I would. Having aid that he did it for 1 match against the worst team in the division. Let's see how he does on Saturday in the position if that's what happens.

The other side is, will he be happy as purely back up in that position?

The other side is, do we have to listen to that awful Allez Allez Allez another year?

I'd be looking to bring someone else in first and this would be the fallback option if nothing can to fruition. No idea who that 'someone else' might be though.

Good chance Maatson will feature (and probably play a blinder !!!) as we really do not have enough numbers , the concern as I said will be his energy levels with having no time off and we have forest coming up

This is my only concern with him.
The positive is that it doesn't seem to be any repeat, recurring injury but lots of different niggles which in itself is a worry.

Since Jan 1st they've failed to score in 11 of their 15 matches, scoring only 6 goals and 3 of those were in 1 game against Derby

Always love this match for the intra-family rivalry. I think (hope) we'll nick it 1-0, Big Vik to score.

Not sounding confident at all on their side of things, most predicting a defeat and seem pretty apathetic in general. Content to give Mowbray until the end of the season but then want rid it seems after his usual "death spiral".

v Coventry City (a) - 2/4/22

Nobody has started one yet so here goes… Here’s a couple of photos taken the last time I was at that stadium…Glory Days anyone ?

Blackburn sold nearly all of their 2000 allocation, so hopefully that will help keep the atmosphere at the new levels. I'm up for a sing song!!
