Rovers heading for the sun after Ewood snore draw

THERE is a scene in classic baseball movie Field of Dreams where James Earl Jones tells Kevin Costner to build the baseball pitch in his Iowa corn field because “people will come, without even knowing why they come”.

Saturday at Ewood Park had much the same feel about it but for far worse reasons than the nostalgia hit that Jones was on about.

The 26,781 present must have spent the drive home wondering why they had bothered, why they stayed to the end, what was the point of it all.
