Blackburn Rovers

Blackburn Rovers

Blackburn could probably do with a few less stressful Saturdays after last season got a bit too close for comfort. Rovers know this league inside out by now, but this time around they’ll want to spend a lot more time looking up the table than over their shoulder.

Can Rovers make life a bit easier this time?

Last season got a bit too close to the bottom end for comfort. Rovers fans will be hoping for a lot less stress and a bit more breathing room this time around.

The Championship doesn’t give you much chance to relax, though. A couple of back-to-back wins and everything feels peachy, but lose a few on the bounce and suddenly every Saturday starts feeling verrrry stressful.

Blackburn could really do with a more relaxed year. A few more comfortable wins and maybe even the odd game where they can enjoy the last ten minutes. Will they get it? No idea, but that’s half the fun.

FAQs

Blackburn play at Ewood Park. It’s been home to some fairly big moments over the years, including their famous Premier League title-winning era.
This page's leaderboards show where Rovers and their players rank across the division for goals, assists, discipline, clean sheets and more, updated throughout the season.
Yes, once. Blackburn won the Premier League in the 1994/95 season, and still hold the crown as one of the smallest towns to have produced an English top-flight champion.

Match Bingo Game Modes Explained

There are three game types on Match Bingo and they behave less alike than they sound. Live Games follow a real fixture as it's played. Bingoals swaps the fifteen events for fifteen teams and needs every one of them to score. Quick Games run every few minutes on football from last season, so there's nothing to wait for.

Does a New Signing Change Anything on Your Match Bingo Card?

Deadline day comes and goes and your card stays exactly as it was. Match Bingo cards are built from things that happen in a match, goals and corners and fouls, rather than from the players who make them happen. No name on a teamsheet reaches a single square. Here's what a signing does change, and what it doesn't.

Is Match Bingo Safe? Licensing, Fair Play and Player Protection

Two things usually sit behind that question: whether the company is real and regulated, and whether the game itself can be got at by somebody sharper than you. Match Bingo is operated by RTSB Limited under Gambling Commission account 51467, which takes about a minute to check. The second answer is duller: there's nothing to press.

What Is Football Bingo?

A card holds fifteen things that can happen in a football match, and each square marks itself the moment its event happens in the fixture you've chosen. You buy before kick-off, then you go and watch the game. Complete a horizontal row of five before anybody else and you take the fixed prize for that tier.
