Blues vs Blackburn – Brief post match thoughts
Dec 15th, 2009 | By Aylesburyblue | Category: Aylesburyblue Articles, Blues News, Match reports, MatchesPhew! That was hard going in the end. What a finish to the game. Blackburn pressure, chances on the break, an amazing miss and my favourite thing in football, the goalkeeper coming up for a corner. If I was a neutral I would have really enjoyed that last ten minutes. As it was I think I lost another year off my life.
There must be a law that we cannot win by more than one goal and see out a game comfortably. This should have been all over when the ball rolled to Benitez in the 89th minute but what a horrible miss. Probably one of the worst I have ever seen. Larsson should have scored as well but then he did save us with a goal line clearance seconds earlier. Jerome took his goals well and the second was a great move. Johnson and Dann were rocks at the back again and it also helped playing Ridgewell at left back because it effectively gave us three centre backs to deal with Blackburn’s threat at set pieces.
In other seasons this game would have finished 2-2 but this Blues’ team have something a bit more. A great team spirit and will to win. I’m very happy to be blue at the moment.
All in all another good win and up to 6th! Happy days at St Andrews.













I was there and agree with it all. I could get used to these good post match thoughts. A little bit different from the previous seasons. It makes a difference to look forward to the next game each week. Even though every game is still tough, you know they aren’t just going to crumble each week or wonder if were going to turn up at all. I just hope that with expectations so high, if we have a few bad games in a row, the fans don’t get back to the old ways of getting on the teams back!!!
