Blackburn Rovers caretaker boss Gary Bowyer wants the club's supporters to drive them through their difficult period.

Blackburn Rovers caretaker boss Gary Bowyer has called on the club's supporters to back the team in Friday's clash with Blackpool.

Bowyer, who has been placed in temporary charge following the sacking of Michael Appleton, has also admitted that Rovers are still looking over their shoulders in the table.

"The main thing for the supporters is to back the team the way they did against Burnley," he told the club's official website.

"They backed the side right until the death and with Dunny scoring in injury-time was great for us and gave us the boost to go into this game. With the experience from sampling that atmosphere we want to appeal to the fans to come and cheer the football club and the players on once again.

"Because when the fans are like that the players respond and vice-versa. It is much needed. We've got to try and win the game and get the team climbing up the league. You've always to be realistic and we have to try and get some wins as quickly as possible."

Blackburn currently sit 18th in the Championship.
