Tomorrow sees the visit of Reading to Ewood Park in a game that Rovers need to win to prevent October turning into a Halloween nightmare.
Reading are two points above us and seem to be win-or-lose specialists with 6 wins, 6 defeats and just 1 draw thus far.
They also showed their ability to throw away a 2 goal lead in mid-week, so perhaps it will be a case of which team is most benevolent on the day?
John Swift is their main scorer with 8 goals to his name so far. Let's hope we don't give him a free run at the box to see if he's any good.
After Tuesday's team selection, I wouldn't like to predict what the starting eleven will be, although it looks fairly certain that Travis and Pickering won't be featuring. Diaz should be back to a starting berth and surely we need the energy of Dolan up front.
Here's hoping 5pm on Saturday sees us smiling and doesn't see us contemplating a spooky and scary return of 5 points from 21.
COYB!
