Blackburn Rovers 1 Irons 5 And still Diafra Sakho to come …..! That was my first reaction following a victory as classy and complete a victoty as we are likely to see from our team and yes I can hear the reminders now from the cynical that it was only Blackburn Rovers. But to score […]

Seven out but here’s the positive prediction

Let’s just stop for a moment and consider the fact that this afternoon the Irons will be without seven key players. Now, despite the face we are playing a lowly Championship outfit, I wonder whether we would have been as upbeat had the same position existed last season. I know it’s become a cliche but […]

Payet’s big Lanzini welcome back

It’s been pretty obvious that far too much has been expected of Dimi Payet in the creativity department over recent weeks and it seems that the main man accepts that himself.

Leroy delivers his Rovers/Irons verdict

I don’t have the slightest doubt that the Hammers will beat Blackburn Rovers in the FA Cup at Ewood Park tomorrow even with some difficult injury problems. There’s a problem at right back and at centre forward which isn’t ideal but the squad will have far too much for Rovers if they approach the game […]
