Kean urges Blackburn fans to stick with them

Blackburn Rovers boss Steve Kean has urged fans to stay with them.

He has appealed for fans to stay behind the team for the crucial run-in but knows it is down to his players to give them something to cheer.

"I do understand the concerns but we are talking about very fine margins," he told the Lancashire Telegraph.

"I understand the frustrations of the fans, we are frustrated ourselves because we feel as though we have been good enough in a number of those games to just edge it.

"For whatever reason we have drawn or lost. What I would like to say is we are sharing the frustration.

"We are not going against the frustration, it is not the players and staff saying 'why are you frustrated'?

"We are frustrated as well because we would have liked to have beaten Blackpool and Birmingham. We are sharing that frustration it is equal.

"Hopefully they stick with us because we'd like to create an atmosphere in the next two games that's a little bit like we had against Liverpool. The place was bouncing that night, magnificent."
