They have scored just 24 goals this season, 10 of which were scored by Rhodes - so they could struggle w/o him.
40/1 to be relegated looks a bit big to me.

Not so sure they won't improve without him, I don't think he works hard enough. Good finisher though.

Rhodes works hard than Danny Graham. Blackburn got thir money back for Rhodes, including wages.

Boro will only get their money back if they get promoted.

Only five points clear of the drop zone but two games in hand. As [MENTION=13]CHAPPERS[/MENTION] say though, those two games in hand might not be worth much.

At 40s, I too am getting involved. Good find [MENTION=588]8ace[/MENTION].

Blackburn this season:
Overall: P27 24pts = 0.89 PPG
w/o JR: P2 1pt = 0.5 PPG
w/ JR: P25 23pts = 0.92 PPG

If you take away the goals JR has scored from their results they'd have 9 fewer points (They also beat Leeds and Charlton when he scored)

P25 14pts = 0.56PPG

If that trend continues for the rest of the season they'd only get another 11 points leaving them on 35 points.

I think Tony Watt will do well for them and Rhodes was clearly utterly demotivated. That said, I don't rate Lambert (without a chequebook) and would never poo-poo a 40's poke.

I just looked on Betfair - Fulham are 6/1 to go down, with Blackburn at 33/1. There's a one place and 2 point difference...

That looks like a cracking bet to me even though, if I'm honest, I think there are 3 worse teams in the league than them,
