I’m clearly biased but this is one of the best-ever issues outside the special themed ones…worth buying for the cover alone IMO.

Some nice ideas but not feeling the "wear all black". That will go unnoticed and is largely the colour of winter football grounds anyway. Really like the missing 15 years graphic, also agree this needs to hit home in India somehow if at all possible, not Pune. They are mad about English football out there and probably have no idea what Venky's have done to this club. It's time to turn the heat up on the owners... 15 years we've wanted them out for, all they've done in that time is brought shame.

Even though they were all on the scrapheap bar one Lambert had a promotion on his cv, so did Mowbray, JDT had 2 Swedish league titles, i think even Berg had a bit of success somewhere. Even Bowyer went and got a crisis club promoted but what has this fella done anywhere apart from a dozen clubs in a dozen years or something amazing like that ? By the way i don't count getting to the play offs with Barnsley with someone else's squad in covid season as a success it was obviously a bit of a fluke. He's here because he's a yes man with the right connections and will be working cheaper than a lot of others hence the stupid 3 year contract. We are being played by a new little clique of self serving clowns again.

I’ve mentioned before that I live in Hereford and sometimes attend their games. I do it to catch up with friends and have a beer. If a goal goes in I’ll applaud it and if it’s a screamer out of nowhere I might even break a cheer. I certainly don’t get the same buzz as I do watching rovers. I usually manage 4 or 5 games a season and this season will be no different. I’ll be at Preston in November and will also hopefully be at the 150th match. It certainly seems much harder to get excited for a rovers game at the moment though.

is there a list of who are getting the caps i was just wondering if one of my relatives Harry Heallass was on the list i would have thought 360 games and captaining the cup winning side would warrant one , I was out with his grandson last year so he has relations around.

Same. Rovers or nothing for me. That would also rule out any phoenix Club if it set up whilst we were still in existence. As tor Lancashire United.....pfftttt.

What a shame there are no known match photographs of Rovers playing there.You would have also thought the England v Scotland game at the venue would have attracted the national media of the peroid. http://englandfootballonline.com/TeamStadia/England/EngLeamington.html http://englandfootballonline.com/Seas1872-00/1886-87/M0031Sco1887.html#Team

low crowds were across the whole game in that era,the threat of getting your head kicked in put a lot of people off

I wish the ground was still there - I'd only live about 250 yards away! No point me popping round there's no sign of anything whatsoever as far as Im aware - bit weird when you think about it. Of course if brfcs want to invest in some high tech x ray equipment to see what's beneath the tarmac and cobbles? 🙂

🤔

The whole caps thing has been irrevocably tarnished for me by giving one to Mowbray.

Can't you just pop round and have a look @RevidgeBlue 😀

He does indeed, lives in Wiswell now but did live in Mellor years back.

When he was appointed Watford fans said on 60 minutes he throws three subs on with no thought given at all.

Exactly my thoughts. We need to emphasize that they are bringing the reputation of the Indian nation into disrepute with their levels of sheer brain dead incompetence.

100% Born in Blackburn. Bleed blue & white. Rovers till I die.

And goals. And clean sheets.

Two cousins fucked under some power lines and this guy is the end result.

But it's often used as a get out of jail card now by some in regards to the current crowds.

Wonder if Taylor, who is supposed to be above all concerned with player welfare, had anything to say about how we treated our Women's team over the last 6 months?

True Sheff Wed, Rovers and Oxford I suspect are doomed, soon those 3 will be adrift, Sheff Wed have a chance if no points deduction!

Attendances in the mid 80’s were the lowest for all clubs since WW2

More cap honours than wins.

Yeah he was excellent for us imo. Absolute clutch and a wicked set piece specialist which we desperately need. Our set piece coach idk who that is but is absolute dire.
