Stranded Wigan survived by winning at Stoke on the last day last season. Add to that that Stoke have been on the beah for the last month and it is a more than possible result.


Add to that Stoke managed to lose to QPR .... and QPR are unbelievable crap.

They have won 5 straight at home, "sadly" for QPR they've lost 5 straight away.

Fan throws season ticket at the Blackburn dugout. Takes some guts to do that in the last home game of the season.

Feel so sorry for that bloke. Really hoped they'd get out of the mire as they started to get a few results but the last 2 months they've been awful.

Although they are angry at the Venkys, the fans should take some responsibility for the mess this season. The atmosphere @ Ewood is toxic & the fans have made it a self-fulfilling prophecy by not backing the manager & the players. Shame.

According to 5Live he actually threw it at the Wigan dugout

They just said on 5 Live that he threw it at Martinez by mistake. Gutless and stupid.

You have to say that being a Blackburn fans must be pretty horrendous right now. Regardless of one's position on Kean and the Venky's, being in a stadium with that much anger and negativity can't be fun.

No it must be horrible. Made me think of when we got relegated.

It really is a coin toss as to whether these foreign owners are good or not. Lets hope ours are good.

I don't know about you, but I was confident enough in the club to know we weren't facing disaster when we were relegated. I think Blackburn fans can already see League 1 coming.

Of course it's not quite the same but there's nothing more gutting than going down. The worst feeling ever. Kean has acted with such dignity throughout. Hats off to the bloke - he must be devastated he couldn't get the fans onside but he kept plugging away.

Quite sad for them actually. Didn't want them to go down.

Great sympathy for Kean. Impossible circumstances brought on by the owners and the fans, who are responsible for at least about 75% of the clubs' plight. If you spend every home game directing hatred and bile at your manager and team, don't expect them to have the home form to stay up.
