Orr hails Rovers 'warrior'
Blackburn Rovers,
Last updated:
Bradley Orr believes Rovers' fighting spirit will be enough to keep them up and has described Gael Givet as "a warrior".
Rovers are third from bottom in the table, three points from safety with three matches left to play and are looking for a favour from Aston Villa against Bolton tonight.
But Orr, signed in January to bolster the Rovers back-line, is adamant that the squad is not short of the sort of character required to do the job.
"The dressing room is full of spirit," Orr told BBC Radio Lancashire. "In times like this, it's what you need.
"You need a group that's pulling in the right direction and the Norwich game showed that we've got that."
Blackburn go to Tottenham on Sunday and Chelsea on the final day of the campaign, with a potentially crucial home game against Wigan sandwiched in between.
"We've got three games to make sure that we're absolutely safe," he added.
"We've got to keep doing what we're doing, in terms of our battling qualities and producing those moments of magic when they're needed.
"We need to embrace the pressure and enjoy it. In a strange way, you've got to enjoy that pressure rather than let it affect you.
"Hopefully that's the mentality and attitude that we can possess in the next three games."
Orr believes Givet's return after rumours of a bust-up with boss Steve Kean could prove to be pivotal to Blackburn's survival hopes.
"Gael's a warrior," said Orr. "He puts his body on the line and leads by example.
"Without being a big talker on the pitch, he's a captain in the way he goes about his job."
