Tonight gives our club a chance to wipe away some of the lurking memories from Saturday and the 4-0 defeat at the hands of Manchester United.
Tonight; and this is meant as no disrespect to our opponents Blackburn, the team shouldn`t be out-classed or out-played and it promises to be a far more even affair.
In the build up to the fixture, in his pre-match interview, Roy has spoken about that 4-0 reverse and his expectations for the remainder of the season. Considering the word relegation seems to be creeping into a lot of interviews associated with those at the club, they are refreshing words,
“There is no point in harping on about the past but 4-0 hurt my pride and the player`s pride. But we can come back from that.”
“We will see how high we get. But I think you are entitled to start looking to Europe.”
Is that through league position or the much debated ‘Fair Play` league?
