Thank you to everyone who has engaged with this post. I really didn't intend to bring people down, so I'm sorry if that's the case for anybody. But, not for the first time, I've been reminded of how many passionate and dedicated supporters of this club are here on this site. I've appreciated reading each of your posts on this thread and I hope for you all (as well as, selfishly, for myself!) there appears some light on the horizon through a change in Blackburn Rovers' ownership. Because, for many of us, the club is clearly entwined with so many different aspects of our purpose, families, lives, and history.

Best post on here for a long time.purely for the raw reactions, amd people have finally let their guard down on here. There's a person behind every user name.

We've all got lives outside of football.

Loved ones, jobs, friends, no spouse, no friends, no job, other hobbies, no hobbies.

We're all different but what unites us is that we've all walked a well trodden path by those who passed down their torch and in some instances, passed away leaving loving memories and a core of those memories is Blackburn Rovers, so it isn't just football, it's an intrinsic part of our daily living.

It isn't something you can just forget about til next weekend. It's Football, our National Sport to which the world is now flooded with its gigantic presence. Its everywhere on the planet now.

Who was at the forefront? Us. 

Blackburn Rovers amongst a few other old boys.

We've been lucky to be able to see us standing at 150 years old. We are so lucky and that's because of the fans. Our families, our friends. It's their history too
