Episode Notes

Blackburn Rovers have survived in the Championship, but it was far too close for comfort.


In the club’s 150th year, Rovers were on the edge of relegation — and this episode looks at what must change to make sure it doesn’t happen again.


We discuss the performance against Sheffield United, whether Michael O’Neill is the right man going forward, and what the summer needs to look like if Blackburn are to move forward rather than just survive.


We also reflect on how quickly things can change in the Championship, with clubs like Leicester showing how fine the margins can be.
