And Henning Berg's challenge on Lee Sharpe in the home fixture

Yes another disgusting decision, pity we can't enjoy yesterdays result as much as we should.

[Andy]

any rovers fan is a rovers fan at the end of the day. dont explain yourself imy. you support rovers and thats all that matters. dont explain your personal life to anyone

100% correct.

There's no such thing as a 'proper fan' or 'super fan' - we're all equal, irrespective of games attended or miles travelled.

Really?

Your support is obviously missing for every game due to you withdrawing your support for the team so the team is missing that for the entire season.

What did you make of young Duncan's performance yesterday at Centre half, obviously not playing in his strongest position of RB but still lol.

Not withdrawn my support imy.... just my funding. I simply cannot bring myself to write a cheque out to people who cannot lie straight in bed. btw before you bang on about funding please rem that going to away matches only puts nothing in the BRFC pot whatsoever.

Young Duncan had a sh1t game as had his teammates. Organising a back 4 with Valencia and Carrick in it plus a dodgy keeper behind them would have been a severe test for anyone. The midfield in front of hime were no better either, in fact MU succumbed to our usual malaise they had just one person who could win a tackle in entire team.

Did anybody win any serious cash yesterday? There were some very big prices around, yak first scorer 18-1, rovers to win 20-1?

The good news: Was drunk at family party Friday night, Rovers 30/1 to win on betfair, I put a tenner on to show family my faith.

The bad news: Mrs benb was there so she knows, think she spent it before I got back from the pub yesterday.

I have never claimed to be a top fan Den as you quite clearly are compared to everyone else.

I don't tell everyone else how to support the team imy. I just do it.

You didn't say why you've never been to Ewood?

[Sparky Marky]

Now now ladies.

And Henning Berg's challenge on Lee Sharpe in the home fixture

Gerald Ashby was the ref. Think he`s passed on now. I was up in the JW stand surrounded by Utd fans. Was bloody livid.

I was in Blackburn End, it was one of the best timed tackles you will ever see, I was absolutely furious!! Then 'he' put the pen away, could've started a riot myself!

[blue/white]

Nothing to do with this, but well done Paul for having a go at The Guardian earlier today about our treatment of Kean. You did a good job there. Shame that Barry Glendenning had the edit button.

Yes, I'll echo those words Colin. Paul is a credit to this MB..pity we cannot say that about Glendenning/Southern media.

I gave my opinion about the protests, I feel they need to stop during games, does that constitute 'telling everyone how to support the team' and me saying that I am 'Rovers number 1 fan' ? If so I think you'll find the majority on the board feel that way, so any particular reason why you felt the need to pinpoint me?

As for why I have not been to Ewood I have no intention of repeating myself again.

[ABBEY]

YOU ARE TELLING PEOPLE HOW TO SUPPORT THE TEAM THO!!!

You have far to many opinions for someone who has never been to a home match, far too many. And don't tell me you have a right to your opinion. If you have never bought a ticket at the home of the team I don't believe you deserve that right.

You would have slotted in well during Stalin's era.

imy its like me with broncos(and yes ive been to denver numerous times) i would never go on a bronco board and tell season ticket holders how to support the team.

It is my opinion that protests should cease as they are not effective anymore, I am not instructing anyone to do or not do anything!

Ignore the bully boys imy...you're as entitled to an opinion as anyone else.

I can't help feeling that if you were advocating cranking up the Kean/Venky out campaign you'd then be allowed to be part of the gang.

Anybody remember the time we played them at Old Trafford and were playing some great stuff, leading 1-0 ( Gallagher the elder I think )? Pretty sure it was in the second half, Jason Wilcox got away in their box and Paul Parker chopped him in half ! Clearest penalty I'd seen all season and nothing happened ! Should have been 2-0 up and playing against 10 men. The rats went on to win 3-1.

Never realised you'd never been to Ewood.

Your opinions have no value.

Thanks Jim at least I can remember what I said.

Let me see John Williams being the anti Christ and now is a saviour according to you...but the best one has to be the massive Sam Allardyce love in now but in October 2010 after the Chelsea game (season before we'd finished 10th) you said we would be relegated under Sam, how times change hey Jimbo? Lol.

[jim mk2]

You have opinions on all and sundry at Rovers yet have never stepped inside Ewood Park.

All your pontificating is worthless.

Ironic coming from someone who does not know his ar** from his elbow'

Thank you teacher, sir. The nation's children are in good hands.

Now get yourself out of the classroom and get to Ewood. You might learn something....
