[Herbie6590]

A little while back we were asked if we wanted to represent Blackburn Rovers in the inaugural talkSport Cup quiz competition…it didn’t take long for us to say yes & we will update you with our progress in this thread. 

Representing Rovers will be @sasumner & @Herbie6590 so wish us luck as we try to salvage something from our season! 

All the matches will be available on talkSport’s YouTube channel here

 

Wish us luck…⚪️🔵

Great effort by that moan utd. Team. I was surprised that Peter Bonneti didn't get more than 10 cap's for England but then again Gordon Banks was Infront of him.

Well done Herbster (and Scott)!! A very close run thing..... We Are The Rovers team would like to play you in the Champion of Champions challenge match, after our recent victory at The Rising Sun ( a fabulous Rovers Boozer).

You’ll have to go back through our archive…we’re on a much-needed summer break 😎

The Matt Jansen, Don Mackay & Simon Garner ones are particularly enjoyable IMHO 👌

Great effort chaps, well done. 

I find it odd that, of the ones I've seen, the teams are quite young. Most won't remember anything before the Prem - as you proved, you can't beat a bit of experience! (Are you listening Suhail!? 😄)

‘It’s a marathon not a sprint Brian…we’ll give it our best shot but at the end of the day in top level quizzing anything can happen so we’re just taking it one round at a time…” 😉

Good performance and a good watch but not sure we should get carried away yet. Ian and Scott dominated but Brighton were shocking. As bad a team as we will play all season. Still, If we can do it again in the next round then I’ll start to believe.

They’ll both leave on frees - god knows what their replacements will be like.
