Unlike the premiership fancy boys who refuse to acknowledge that an entire football set up exists below them I believe we can share with non-league its relevent and although in theory not actually in the league, it is within the english football set up.
EDIT: Just for the sake of doing so- I'm a Sheffield Wednesday fan unfortunately.
Hey I'm a Norwich City fan but I still love the Football League! We were there for long enough so I have to appreciate it really! I try to watch it whenever I can, and in some ways I actually find it more exciting than the Premier League!
Always check in to see how Bristol Rovers are getting on too, got a lot of family who support them!
There's a few Blackburn fans on here, isn't there?
I'd be interested in their thoughts/predictions on this weekend's game. Going to be a tough one for us, I reckon.
I'm a Rovers fan and I think we've got as good as chance of winning as Derby do on Saturday. We've played well at home all season and finally (after offloading about 20 players and signing 12 more) we've got a competitive squad that wants to play for the shirt, not the money. For the first time in a long time, I'm feeling optimistic

5th best home form apparently, up against the best away record in the Championship. I think a draw looks very likely though and I'd feel most confident predicting a 1-1.
Is Jordan Rhodes fit? He didn't play in your last game, did he?

Ah thats different my friend I have muchos respect for the Norwich etc. I'm referring to of course the premiership glory hunters who usually support chelski or manure but sometimes support nobody but bum to death how good the premiership is and fail to see how flawed it is.

Norwich are my prem team. Everyone who supports a football league team usually have a 'prem team' Just as well considering you bought half of our squad :

I've no idea what the score will be but I'm pretty confident it'll be close. It won't be an easy game for either team.
Apparently Rhodes was coming back from injury, but I think it was a bit of a white lie. I'm guessing he was rested (nothing wrong with it) but I think Rovers were limiting his game time to deter any bids from him if he ended up scoring a hat-trick. It sounds cynical but I think we're trying not to put him in the spotlight, otherwise we'd be subject to bids for him. Same reason why he didn't play against either of the City games
