FA Cup – Blackburn Match Preview
By: Stephen | January 23rd, 2009Yawn, I know Blackburn shouldn’t bore me at all, per them being a Premier League club. But I don’t know what it is about the Rovers that bug me. Maybe it’s because Big Sam is their gaffer and I’ve never liked him. Though to be fair to the man, he’s a hell of a manager, and I’d take him in a heartbeat. Enough with that.
What about the match up? Well as bbc sport website says: “This is the sixth time Sunderland and Blackburn have been drawn together in the competition. Blackburn have progressed in all five of the previous occasions. ” Not so good. However, as they say in America, that’s why they play the game. I’m actually worried in a way about this match. Blackburn has come alive since BSA has taken over the club, and that’s the last thing we needed. They’ve been scoring like it’s going out of style, and in some leagues, it has (read that League 1,2, BSP, and MLS).
Do I expect a loss? HELL NO. But I do expect like a lot of our matches, that this will be a close one, and could get even better if Ricky signs a defender tonight. (oh and drops McShit back to the Unibond leagues. Or better yet, send him to America and to the NPSL. I’m sorry, I know I shouldn’t be ripping on footballers, but he’s a professional and can take it.
Anyway, sorry for the digression. I think the score will be 1-0 Black Cats, with Cisse getting a goal in the second half, just after the 70th minute.
