Should be, he was on the Bench against Wednesday and could have come on if really needed.

I agree. Maybe he'll switch BTA to the right but that exposes Milan much more. If Haji's not up to it BTA will start through the middle you'd think, ahead of Simmo, but I don't see why he wouldn't be if he arrived back yesterday.

Break will have done us good - reset fitness wise. Given our squad they are perfect this season, another block of 6 now - then the big slog until Jan 1st (circa 13 games?)

I hope we have a deal or 2 done, ready to drop on Jan 1st so we can freshen up asap.

Win tomorrow, expect us to roll on.

If fit, i'm guessing it could be the same as at Sheff Weds where BTA was in the 10 behind Wright. Torp or Eccles possibly come in for Allen. Decent options.

Disagree with this.

BTA has been excellent in his defensive duties this year.

I would play Saka there whenever possible because of his understanding with MvE but BTA has been very good on this wings, attacking and defensively, this season.

Huddersfield's HILARIOUS half-time tradition against Bolton

Take a look at Huddersfields half-time antics, which have become a tradition over the past few years.

It'll be touch and go as 'all their tickets' only amounts to 1.5K I think. Should be a tick over 30K for the 3rd game in a row.

Wonder how close Rudoni is to being on the bench.

Would be nice to see him get 5 or 10 mins at the end.

I'm sure around the time of injury the prognosis was hopefully back for this game.

Bristol City's is the best and it's not even close. Two blokes trying to push giant inflated apples down the pitch

Lampard said in the last press conference before Sheff Weds that he wouldn't be back for Blackburn.

Have they still got that unit of a striker? He caused us issues before.

If we get into Cantwell's head as well, he won't want it.

Do you mean Gallagher? Hes at Stoke now but he used to always play well against us. Not sure if Robins signed him at stoke but would make sense.

Edit* just checked and he came in just before Robins

I had a flick through the Blackburn forum and someone was suggested Cantwell is an injury doubt?

Not really, we haven't been exposed to a hard game since Leicester. BTA played on the left that day. Tats supports MVE well and he's familiar with the job and the position as a winger. Grimes and Kitching cover left back very well at the moment but they can't do both.

Think we do win this, it is Tuesday night I feel is the banana skin

Although I do think Blackburn have a marginally false position and their tally is 3 points worse off than it should be, as I thought they were completely shafted with the carry on from the Ipswich game the other week

They only took half the allocation so it definitely won't be the biggest crowd of the season as over 1.5K empty seats in the away end.

You mean the Leicester game where BTA did an outstanding job of supporting JDS in his defensive work against probably the best winger in the league?

Yeah, I'm a fan of EMC but if he played in that game it's quite feasible we come home empty handed.

By the sound of what Lampard has said I'd say at least another three to four weeks. He's only doing gym work at the moment.
