Blackburn v Saints: Saturday 3pm

[IFHP]

A lot easier game on paper than play off hopefuls Bristol mid week .

We should have too much for Blackburn and win, however we need to stop making silly mistakes .

if we can, than a win it will be. 
 

if we can’t stop making silly mistakes, even against this lot we will be punished and another draw on the cards .

Either way there’s no way we should be losing this.

Agree on paper its a win. But our style of play is too ridged, robotic and predictable. Its time for more creative play. Its double pressure on the players as its a six pointer plus a must win game (unless we play for a draw)

Defend in numbers an then… just wait…

With 5 at the back then surely we can draw at worst.

Creating chances is not a problem. It's putting them away and then not making stupid mistakes at the back. The in-between is improving.

Perfect game for Rovers. When hard work has a good chance of beating talent, just add some wind and rain. 

[Hussar Saint]

Fully expect our pathetic losers to bottle it and embarrass themselves.

Is a poor result here a cue to start moistening mattresses or shall we hang on until Xmas ?

a draw will be enough to get the clappers happy until we beat Sheffield Weds, when their excitement will go into overdrive.

Blackburn will also have 5 at the back, meaning that both sides will spend the entire game in their own half waiting for an attack that never comes, but patiently counting on an accidental pass-back/Panenka. Could be quite a match.

I think we will see changes for this, through combination of needing to turn it around and third game in a week.  Great shame both right backs are injured.
