    Why would snow cause it to be called off? Unless it's a complete blizzard and nobody can see. It won't be freezing if it's snowing and it won't waterlog the pitch.
    Time to get the orange balls out.  🍊🍊
  • Don't often bet but have a few quid on Costello to score. I'm not comfortable being this confident.

    Complete blizzard forecast for 3.25 
    Bah, normal conditions in the winters of the 70's, they need to man up a bit...😉

    Anderson and Roussillon are there and were doing some running before the warm up. So Anderson isn’t injured and Roussillon is still here

    We're 3/1 to win which at this moment feels generous. I'm on that and a 2-0 win at 18/1. But I'll take 3 points however they come, please.

    So Berry had a stinker against Coventry; name me one player in this team who hasn't had a bad game this season.
    Berry to score.

    Blackburn team and bench has been ravaged. We couldn't play them at a better time.
    Thing is, wasn't the same said about Pompey...?

    Berry is very good at organising the high press. Noticeably better since he has been playing.
    I feel like this is just something we say when players aren't actually contributing!

    It's a shame to see that a club like Blackburn Rovers attracts so few fans that both the home section of the south stand and the upper tier of the north aren't even open.

    I'm surprised that most fans are sitting in their seats given that there aren't even 600 of us up here and we have half the stand (four blocks). Most of our fans are sat in the corner (the only blocks sold) when they could be sat in the middle.

    Not in Blackburn there's not.

    In the UK, a blizzard is defined by the Met Office as a severe snowstorm with strong winds (30mph+) and poor visibility (under 200m) due to falling or blowing snow, requiring at least moderate/heavy snow and extensive snow cover

    They've still got the Venky's to put up with, so wont be surprised if there is a bit of protesting going on
    Mad how easy it is to forget about how shite their owners are, given they've been around so long. Especially when you think back to the Steve Kean days in the Premier League

    Apologies if already answered. But why isn't this on sky sports+? I thought the 3pm blackout only applied to Saturdays

    Based on something specific, or just getting it in early for later?

  • Blimey looking at the crowd (or lack of it) maybe blackburn should have sold tickets on the day.

    Honestly I don't care if he scores a hat-trick today... Seeing Luke Berry start games for us in the Championship is making me die a little inside.
