Can't say I really envy Blackburn, they remind me of us during our Championship stint in the Early Ricoh/CBS days, down on their luck being a bit neglected from those above and having to watch teams treat them as their 'big day out' as there is room to fit them in their big away end

I used to hate watching clubs bring 7000 fans in the South Stand when our home support was sparse, all the local sides, West Ham, Newcastle the season they come down and a few others spring to mind

Yeah, same. If I was a Blackburn fan I’d be dreading Friday. Late to notice aswell they played last night. Mad they are playing tues/fri.

I think it’s written in the stars we win Friday and clinch it on sky in front of a packed away end. I can just feel it.

1-0 defeat incoming

I've only ever been in the lower section, but there's a hospitality lounge between the two. That's where the away fans paying £140+ will be.

It's a permanent structure, so what ever photos you've seen mustn't be from there.

Sorry, not what I meant. As in, does the Upper Teir have one big concourse? I expect the Upper and Lower to be seperated.

I see the Blackburn game as a step to the title.
Win the next 2 games and it's done.
Draw one of them and we will probably win the league if and when Ipswich drop points. They have 2 games between our last 2 home games and unless they win both we will become champions when not playing.
I know many of you going to Blackburn would take a draw but look at the bigger picture - win it and we can win the league next Tuesday at home.

Agree but I’m still holding out hope Boro won’t continue their epic bottle job run

I'm sure that Lampard was rallying the boys this morning, following that Ipswich game saying... there you go lads, go and grab it. They should all be absolutely desperate to be in that 11 for Friday, playing in the game in front of 7k away fans that SHOULD confirm it and get us 90% of the way to league title.

We'll be on hot coral for this one surely?

Might have to change the smoke bombs.

Ooh they'll be looking for you

We’ve been over 90% title with OPTA for weeks maybe even months I’ve lost track

Its been the last month or so hasnt it?

I tihnk we win this 2-0. Lampard didn't sound happy on saturday, and as i've said in another thread, we almost looked like we just thought we'd turn up and win.

We'll be up for this and get settled with an early goal, Wright and BTA for me.

Offhegoes · 2026-04-15T14:15:20+0100

Simms & Sakamoto (if fit) to come in.

Those sorts of games happen. We should be beating Blackburn regardless.

Assume you're going to have a bet on it then?!

It’s no different to playing on Saturday and then Tuesday.
