It’s been a difficult few years for Blackburn Rovers’ fans, although there are signs that the club is finally back on an upward curve.
Much has been written about Venky’s disastrous ownership of Rovers, but their appointment of Tony Mowbray as manager appears to have steadied a ship that looked a bit of a lost cause not that long ago.
Mowbray was unable to keep Rovers in the Championship after taking over from Owen Coyle, but his side are firmly in the mix for an immediate return.
Rovers are currently third in League One, five points behind Saturday’s opponents Shrewsbury Town.
