BSAD: The game was lost in the first fifteen minutes. After a fairly bright start, during which Ramage made a hash of a tricky chance, we conceded two goals. The first was utterly hideous – Foster and Millen going up together for a cross and leaving Stimson unmarked for a simple finish. The second followed inevitably after another couple of minutes, as Hall outpaced Millen and crossed for Simpson to hammer home. The game was over, our heads were down and we were in danger of being buried.

Premiership champions, eh? Without the, erm, charismatic inspiration of Dalglish, Blackburn Rovers have been exposed as utter cack. Expensive, aristocratic cack, but cack nonetheless. Their European Cup adventures have revealled a team without class – clueless, English battle-hard-and-you’ll-get-a-result football at its worst. They’ve been an unholy mess in the league too. Let’s face it, I fancied our chances.
