The 1998–99 season was Blackburn Rovers' seventh season in theFA Premier League, and their seventh consecutive season in the top division of English football.

Season summary

[edit]

Four years earlier, Blackburn Rovers wereFA Premier League champions. Just one year earlier, they had qualified for theUEFA Cup. They were among some people's outsiders for a title challenge.

But it all went wrong for Rovers, who were soon in the depth of a relegation battle. ManagerRoy Hodgson paid with his job in November.^[1]Manchester United assistantBrian Kidd was named as his replacement,^[2] but he was unable to steer Rovers to safety and their relegation was confirmed in the penultimate game of the season.^[3] They were condemned to a place inDivision One, but managed to hold on to many key players and approached the new season as most people's favourites for an immediate return to the elite.
