Think a point would be a good result today. Can't stand Luton under this Nathan Jones. Horrid place to go, get it out of the way and move on.

0-0

Don't care how we do it but please please can we get three points today. Mentally being six points up despite having played two additional games on bournemouth will be mentally challenging for them.

We are in for a tough game today versus a Team who are in excellent form.

I was listening to Sky sport news this morning and I think they mentioned that we have not beat Luton away in the league for a long time. Let’s for a change with 2-0 to Rovers.

Slow cooked steak chilli and beans is on! tortilla baskets next to make and Tex mex sweetcorn salad! What's your grub in front of the box later?

I won’t be seeing you at Blackburn Beer Festival then?

Can’t say I’ve much knowledge of real ales and tend to drink mainly IPA . Had some Brewdog Punk last night and enjoyed it .

I went to the Blackburn Beer Festival about 4 years ago . Mainly because like BB said, it was for a good cause and also for me personally because beer and Blackburn aren’t mentioned in the same sentence anymore, so wanted to support it . Sadly the town’s lost all its breweries and most of its pubs . The Festival was a good do and I’m glad the Rugby Club are continuing to hold it .

Bogey team for us recently. 2-1 Luton. Not good preparation if that story is true.
Correct SLKS but a tight pitch and a team with an aggressive style might not have been the best platform for Rothwell to perform on. It'll be a battle today I fear and long hanging crosses will be the order of the day for Luton plus the usual pressurising of Kaminsky from dead balls. BUT.... Just three goals conceded in the last 10 matches is awesome defending! Blackburn Rovers | Form Guide | Last 10 Matches | Football Web Pages
In our defence we trust.

Big day for the back three and the goalie today . A real footballing war that TM in his playing days would have enjoyed . Hopefully the team will go out and fight Luton’s fire with more fire , kick them harder than they kick us and limit the number of free kicks , corners and long throws we give them . Take them on , win the physical battle and give them no quarter .

That fantastic win against in form Middlesbrough has given us a bit of leeway so a draw will be more than good

I think we tried to limit the number of free kicks against Hull but it didn't really work did it? Much will depend on the quality of Refereeing and the performance of Edun and Wharton on the left side of defence. James Bree on the right side provided two assists last time out. I wonder if Agent Bell our sleeper has been woken and activated for today?

On the point of cheap free kicks… thought we conceded too many against Boro, probably because they played for them. Tavernier has a wicked delivery and I feared the worst every time he was stood over the ball. That said, we can expect to have the back 3, Gallagher and Johnson on the pitch today. All big lads who won crucial headers on Monday.

Big, horrible challenge today, but I trust this group more than ever to stand tall and be counted when it matters!

COYB!

Thought I'd seen it somewhere that Chapman was off back to Burton Albion or similar?

No Khadra 😭
Like I said elsewhere Khadra was like chalk and cheese v Boro. Running directly at them and causing panic one minute and then refusing to lift his head and release the ball to a teammate in a better position before losing it cheaply the next.
