Bolton 4-0 Blackburn Rovers

Bolton 1 win in 10, Blackburn on a roll. Only one outcome?

Surely a 5-0 home defeat will signal the end of Dougie?

[size=11.818181991577148]Only 4 days to go until a vital-for-both-teams derby match and I've never known it to be quieter. Not a mention on the Rovers board despite them stuffing us at Ewood earlier in the season and nowt but a few tentative suggestions as to what system we might play on this board.

What's happened to the usual cocky banter and OTT predictions? Nerves?

Both teams got a result at the weekend and both teams need a win, albeit for different reasons.

I had this down as a narrow win for us, but that was partly based on Rovers having to play midweek but their game with Brighton has been cancelled.

Could go either way, but I reckon there'll be goals in this with Mason and Juke providing a threat for us and their wide men murdering our FBs to set up Rhodes et al.

Complete guess? 2 - 2[/size]

I'm with Wander on this one. I fancied a 2-2 draw and I'm sticking to it.

You had a wild guess too RT?

You know what? I have TWO predictions. 

If Dougie plays with Danns and Mavies plus Juke and Mason from the start using the same sort of tactics we used against Watford we'll win 2-1. 

If he reverts to type, drops Mason and doesn't start with Mavies AND Danns in the middle we'll be massacred 3 or 4 nil.

I'm with Lucky Peter on this one!

Let's hope LP's luck hasn't run out and we get an attacking side like we had gainer Watford!

I can't believe the prices for this game, starting at £28 is ridiculous.

It's £30 to go in nob head corner!

Same team that beat Watford, apart from start Danns instead of Pratley, please Dougie.

Bolton 2 Blackburn 1

I could have got you in for free, buy I've given the ticket to somebody else now.

I think we'll win this one, Freedman will be offered a new contract till 2019.

I COULD have a spare ticket, but I will not know until FRIDAY.

Im not sure if the Mrs is coming or not you see. Last match she came to was Blackburn at bok when Eagles scored in the dying seconds... she nearly got hit by a chair...

I'm worried because Dougie has told us all that we needn't worry, Darren Pratley is OK and likely to start.  

I predicted a 15 match unbeaten run if we beat Watford.

3-0 away win.

1-4 to Rovers.

Coming in from 0 - 5 which was your opening gambit?

Why the change of mind? Is it because Pratley might be fit to play?

My opening gambit was a question not a prediction.
