Blackburn Rovers 3 - 0 Wolves

Same old, same old. Attacking line, great. Defence, shocking but here, it was tenfold.

Things started ever so well that we could and should have took the lead early on when Matt Jarvis pulled off a save from Paul Robinson and stand-in midielder Stephen Ward and Ronald Zubar both hit the woodwork within a minute. And we paid the price for not taking the lead shortly after when a Morten Gamst Pedersen corner was aimed towards the far post for Ryan Nelsen to flick back towards goal for David Dunn to head over the line with Wayne Hennessey nowhere to be seen. Rovers doubled their lead later when Steven Mouyokolo lost out in a tussle to Jason Roberts from a long ball and Roberts squared to Brett Emerton who tucked it away with ease. Our defence was once again a laughing stock.

Ten minutes into the second half, Pedersen whipped in another utterly threatening set-piece and it was converted into a third for the hosts and then not long after that, Robinson saved from George Elokobi and substitutes Stephen Hunt and Sylvan Ebanks-Blake made their presences felt with the former being denied by the former England keeper twice. Other than that, chances were few and far between.

You could say that we were unfortunate with the chances we had but that does not excuse the schoolboy defending and another performance in the next two games would be unforgiveable.
