Blackburn Rovers Reporter Elliott Jackson reflects on a 3-1 win at Bramall Lane which secured their Championship safety.

Fighting Coventry performance and midweek permutations

Lancashire Telegraph — Mon, 20 Apr 2026 12:14:59 GMT

Blackburn Rovers' point against Coventry City has put them within touching distance of Championship safety ahead of a huge midweek of games.

Elliott Jackson and Ryan Hildred discuss that and plenty more on the latest episode of Arte et Labore podcast.

Though there was disappointment after Bobby Thomas' late equaliser, Rovers extended their gap over the bottom three to five points after results over the weekend.

It means they could wrap up survival with a win at Sheffield United and a favour elsewhere. That would give them 10 days to relax rather than sweat over a final-day showdown against Leicester City.

Stoke draw, points deductions, permutations and Rovers' fight for survival

Lancashire Telegraph — Mon, 13 Apr 2026 11:34:24 GMT

Blackburn Rovers' gap to the bottom three was cut from six points to four despite a point at Stoke City.

Michael O'Neill's side remain five games unbeaten but results elsewhere mean a draw in the Potteries has seen their safety blanket cut down. Is it a point gained or two dropped at the weekend?

Rovers are gearing up for a very difficult week, away at Southampton and at home to Coventry City. Can they cause more upsets against the big boys or will it be too much for a depleted squad?

Plus an overall view of the relegation battle with Leicester City now four points adrift and West Brom facing a potential points deduction.

Easter triumph as Rovers edge closer to safety

Lancashire Telegraph — Tue, 07 Apr 2026 09:58:55 GMT

Blackburn Rovers had a fantastic Easter weekend and are now edging closer to Championship safety.

Elliott Jackson and Ryan Hildred reflect on four points in the latest episode of Arte et Labore. A deserved win over Birmingham City was followed up by a useful draw against West Brom.

Michael O'Neill gets the credit he deserves for this turnaround after 15 points from 10 games. Rovers have become harder to beat, even if the top end of the pitch is still an issue.

With the teams around them failing to win, victory at Stoke City would all but confirm their Championship status for another season. They look at the trip to the Potteries as well as the fixture congestion coming up after the game against Southampton was rearranged.

Nathan Redmond signs, Michael O'Neill's future and a big Easter weekend

Lancashire Telegraph — Fri, 27 Mar 2026 16:25:12 GMT

Elliott Jackson and Ryan Hildred discuss the arrival Nathan Redmond, the future of Michael O'Neill and a well-earned point against Middlesbrough on the latest episode of Arte et Labore.

Redmond has signed a short-term deal until the end of the season. George Pratt has also been re-registered after special EFL dispensation, but there's no mention of Ryan Hedges.

Meanwhile, Northern Ireland's defeat against Italy has placed O'Neill's future under the microscope again. He suggested he would be returning as national team manager at the end of the season but did he mean it?

Plus, previews of two massive Easter weekend games against Birmingham City and West Brom.

Oxford nadir and Millwall comeback

Lancashire Telegraph — Mon, 16 Mar 2026 14:20:44 GMT

Elliott Jackson and Ryan Hildred reflect on a typically bizarre week as a poor defeat at Oxford is followed up with a comeback win at Millwall.

From the nadir of the Kassam Stadium, to joyous scenes at the Den. Elliott and Ryan pick apart the two results and where it leaves Rovers in their fight for survival.

There was a hint of fortune about certain refereeing decisions but two quality goals ensured a deserved win for Rovers. It gives Michael O'Neill 10 points from his first seven games and optimism heading into Middlesbrough.

Portsmouth point and a huge week

Lancashire Telegraph — Mon, 09 Mar 2026 12:00:44 GMT

Blackburn Rovers rescue a late point against Portsmouth as they head into a huge week in their bid to beat the drop.

Elliott Jackson and Ryan Hildred reflect on a 1-1 draw at Ewood Park in the latest episode of Arte et Labore. Did Rovers deserve the point they gained thanks to Hayden Carter's 93rd-minute equaliser.

They analyse Yuki Ohashi's big miss and penalty claim, plus the balance of the midfield and whether 3-5-2 is working. Could Michael O'Neill have been braver with his substitutions to win the game?

It's a big week, starting at Oxford United on Wednesday night. Is it a must-win or must-not-lose game for Rovers? Then it's a tough trip to Millwall and The Den.

Back down to Earth

Lancashire Telegraph — Mon, 02 Mar 2026 16:59:12 GMT

Blackburn Rovers came back down to Earth with a bump after successive defeats last week.

Elliott Jackson and Ryan Hildred pick apart two bad results in the latest episode of Arte et Labore.

Both games were a tail of two halves. Rovers poor against Bristol City before surrendering their position of strength at Pride Park.

With injuries mounting, Michael O'Neill's post-match assessment was honest and accurate. How will they cope in midfield if Sondre Tronstad is ruled out?

There are two massive games coming up for Rovers. Portsmouth at home followed by Oxford away could define their season as we drip into single-figure games. Can Rovers improve their record against teams around them?

Rovers' late show as Ewood Park roars into life

Lancashire Telegraph — Mon, 23 Feb 2026 12:38:26 GMT

Blackburn Rovers claimed the derby spoils in the best possible manner as they gear up for a big week.

Elliott Jackson and Ryan Hildred reflect on a dramatic night at Ewood Park after a 95th-minute winner from Yuki Ohashi against Preston North End.

The jubilant scenes were a rarity at Ewood Park. After only a fourth home win of the season, it was a night the fans deserved and the celebrations reflected that.

Attention quickly turns to Bristol City at home followed by a trip to Derby County. How will they react to a quick turnaround and can Michal O'Neill continue their moment?

No fun in Norfolk

Lancashire Telegraph — Mon, 09 Feb 2026 15:33:34 GMT

Blackburn Rovers' head coach hunt has moved into a second week with a damaging 2-0 defeat to Norwich City emphasising the need for an appointment.

Elliott Jackson and Ryan Hildred discuss the reverse at Carrow Road and what went wrong in the final 20 minutes. From a position of little dangr, Rovers conceded twice in five minutes to lose.

Gary Rowett is the favourite for the post. The out-of-work boss is expected to hold talks with Blackburn's decision-makers this week.

That's ahead of a trip to Queens Park Rangers. Another big game in Rovers' hopes to survive.
