HALF TIME: Wolves 0 Blackburn Rovers 1
8:34pm Friday 11th January 2013 in Sport
JORDAN Rhodes’ penalty has put Blackburn Rovers into a half-time lead at Wolves tonight.
Rhodes struck his 14th goal for Rovers in the 26th minute after Ruben Rochina had been tripped by Bakary Sako.
The Rovers striker had earlier been unable to steer an effort on target after racing clear, but Jake Kean had to save well at the other end to deny Kevin Foley.

What an awful game - is that the level to how far we,ve sunk ? There isn't one player in that team who would have got into a rovers team of just a few years ago!
CK looked a cert for a red card, I could see why he wasn't taken off but Lowe, Olsson and then Pederson coming on, just no impact at all. Murphy had a good game but again, just no pace. I couldn't understand Vukevic coming off, he was relentless first half.
All in all, a draw was fair. With the whole circus around management, it can't be easy to stay motivated. GB on Sky asked about his future at the club, said he'd be talking to Appleton on Monday. Cheers Gary, you gave us some hope again and brought some dignified performances from the players, who were obviously playing for you.
Hope you stay with us and carry on creating the Henleys and Morrises of the future for our troubled club.

Two pi55 poor sides who don't deserve to be anywhere near the prem. on that showing.
I'd have swapped CKR for Gomes after 30 minutes, but I've been told it's not my turn to be manager until Jan 2014.

Watching on Sky. The lads are clearly playing for Gary. Rhodes' celebration said it all. I'll get behind the new gaffer, but I reckon that Bowyer seemed to be finally picking players who want to play for the club, in the right positions. COYB
