Blackburn manager Tony Mowbray said:
"Two crosses, two headers from Yann Kermorgant and that was it. We came with a game plan to play as much in their half as we could, but it was disappointing in the first half.
"In the second half we had some great chances in front of goal, but were very wasteful. Those chances have to go in, which would have made an interesting game of it.
"We've now got to win enough games to stay in the league and then, after that, we can hopefully build a team."
