Here's some nice facts about the progress Rovers are making under Steve Kean:
Rovers have won just 2 of their last 16 matches
Rovers have lost half of their last 16 matches
Rovers haven't kept a clean sheet for 10 matches
At just .75 points per match (last 16), Rovers would pick up 29 points (28.5) over a full season.

"It is no secret that I'm a positive chap and have been on the other side of the fence."
"Totally with you OOJW, if we fail to beat Everton I will be annoyed, no excuses now."
The problem being that Everton are far from pushovers and there is absolutely no guarantee that we will win this game, or even get a draw. That is why it was hugely important we battered Wolves, but we were so undercooked and underprepared that was never going to happen. It will not be a suprise should we lose to Everton, nor a disgrace, but in our situation it still won't be good enough and Kean will have to man up and deal with the flak.
Nil from 6 means we must not lose this match, but it will very close and I think the odd goal will win it.

We have given him time since last January, I'm not prepared to give him even more time to drag us down.

January?
The only teams Kean has beat are West Brom (who sacked their manager), Liverpool (who sacked their manager) and Wolves (who strengthened and have now beaten us).
Ewood isn't the fortress it once was and our next 5 home games are Everton, Arsenal, City, Spurs and Chelsea. Away at Fulham, Newcastle, QPR, Norwich, Wigan and Stoke.
We could be at the end of November with barely 6 points on the board...

We could have 6 points at the end of November just as we could have 6 points by now! How many shock results have we had in previous seasons? That dodgy fluke which won that game? The was-it-or-wasnt-it penalty? Let's focus on the Everton game first!
