Rovers V Bolton

New signing Ben Marshall could make his Blackburn debut at Ewood Park.

The former Leicester winger may be joined in the side by defenders Matt Kilgallon and Corry Evans, who have both recovered from groin injuries.

Meanwhile, Bolton's injury list is growing, as they remain looking for a first win of the campaign.

Defenders David Wheater, Joe Riley and Marc Tierney, and midfielders Mark Davies, Chris Eagles and Stuart Holden, are all sidelined for the visitors.

Bolton for Relegation ??

They've not had the best of starts, so it is possible.

Too early for that sort of talk

Never too early to discuss Bolton going down

I'd rather discuss the demise of the Dingles but if you insist

Sadly they have started quite well.......

Until Saturday............hopefully  

Well 5-2 against Barnsley; 4-1 against Bolton so the next should be 3-0 against Burnley

oh god I hope so

Well that would be great, more would be a bonus..

1-0 would do me to be honest

As good as that would be, I would rather we spanked the inbreds!!

3 points is all that matters Sledge....to lose to us again by any margin will knark the club footed,Pigeon chested retards!!!

1-0 will do me too

cant see us winning this one

  Pour Quoi???????

winning 3 games on the trot is a rarity, well for rovers anyway

It was under the last few managers, but GB seems to be doing things right, plus he has been at the club long enough to what the deal is with Burnley!

We must Prevail Brothers!!!!!

As much as I agree that 1-0 will do it, I don't feel it is enough given the attitude of some of them lately.

A coffin lid never stayed on with 1 nail!!!

Alright Confucius calm down!!!!

Confucius say, man with hole in pocket feel cocky all day!
