Sorry. Not used to this. 4 attempts at uploading.

This is the transfer thread. Last page is 63 at time of screen shot. I don't know what page this is because if you look at the 3 tabs which are open, i.e. Scores and Fixtures Football BBC Sport, BRFCS Blackburn Rovers Fans Online Forum and BRFCS Blackburn Rovers Fans Online Forum. In both of those last two it used to show the title of the thread and the page number.

Other football league 2020/21 season
bazza replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Blackpool winning 3-0 at Wigan and the scorer of the 3rd goal has a very strange surname. From Mortensen to Virtue-Thick! Who thinks up these surnames? Loftus-Cheek and now this. They are getting stranger. -
We seem to have lost the thread title from the top of the tab. All it says is BRFC supporters football forum. I used to rely on the title because it always gave which page I was reading. Now if I go to a topic where I've read many pages but there are still many pages to read I don't know where I am.

An evening game around Xmas sometime in the 1990s I think was the coldest for me. Minus 5 sticks in my mind but it must have been closer to minus 10. A friend of ours who didn't follow football came with us. He was on holiday from his job in Saudi Arabia. I nearly died of cold. He didn't complain.

I think this is awful. If they start diddling about with our proper design it will be the beginning of the end. -

BRFCS TV - Nostalgia Thread
bazza replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
The last picture, taken from the Albion pub, must be the 1920s judging by the vehicle designs. Maybe Philipl can help identify. In the first picture, queuing for tickets, the man in the trilby hat and long overcoat walking away in the bottom left corner could easily have been my father. He used to look exactly like this. -
BRFCS TV - Nostalgia Thread

Now then...... I don't know what year it was (either 1963 or 64) we went to King George's Hall to watch Roy Orbison. The first half of the show we were entertained by several groups who were in the charts. Freddie and the Dreamers, Brian Poole and the Tremeloes, The Searchers and another two or three who I cannot remember. No sign of The Beatles or The Rolling Stones. We were rocking with these, being very noisy and thoroughly enjoying it. After the interval Roy Orbison was announced. The curtains drew back and there he was in the middle of the stage in front of a microphone wearing his dark glasses and holding a guitar. Two girls stood at another microphone to our left. There may have been another two at another microphone further left. And there were others from his backing group to our right all well spaced out. The whole theatre was in deathly silence. You could have heard a pin drop. Then he started. Wow! The sound that came from that stage was exactly like what we heard on the records. How they did it I don't know. And we were transfixed. In Dreams, Falling, Crying, Blue Bayou, Only the Lonely, Running Scared and Dream Baby. Believe me, it was well worth paying 8 and 6 to see such talent. Quite a lot at the time but still less than ten bob. Thanks for resurrecting the memories, Gav. -

I'll be bloody annoyed if our shirts finish up with a plain back like Bristol Rovers. I think that would be the last straw for me. -
Championship Season 2020 - 2021
bazza replied to Hoochie Bloochie Mama's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
That's one long list of possibles including many who are still employed at EFL clubs. Thank goodness our beloved Tony isn't on that list. We'd hate to lose him. -
Wasn't that down Pleasington?

Without taking away the neglect of our pitches and the shambolic running of the club, the reason for this postponement IMHO is not Rovers fault. The weather, the weather forecast, and the flood warnings are the genuine and good reason. If the River Darwen gets so full as to be nearly bursting its banks and the rain continues to fall (as forecasted) there is nowhere for the water on Ewood to drain to. This happened in Uncle Jack's days when the Wimbledon Crazy Gang did belly flops into the Ewood lake when the match was cancelled before KO.

If the Venkys can run successful poultry and pharmaceutical businesses why can't they ensure that a football club has competent people running it? -

Moggasaurus runs the club. Therefore a poor pitch is his fault. The buck stops with him. -

Then somebody needs to tell Kaminski to kick the f***ing ball into the opponents' half and stop piddling about with it in our own penalty area. -
Stoke (h) Saturday 16th Jan
bazza replied to Uddersfelt Blue's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
For 75 minutes Stoke were set up in a proper formation. They played far better than us. Every player knew where his position was. I was screaming at Kaminski to punt the ball forward but he insisted on rolling it out to a marked defender. A lot of work needs doing in training at Rovers and we all know that it won't be done under TM. -

If we can never come from being 1 or 2 goals behind to win we don't deserve to make the top six. I think we'll win this about 2-0 By the way we aren't good enough for top 6 so stop dreaming. -

BRFCS TV - Nostalgia Thread
bazza replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Mr Shoelaces you remember correctly. The bus was the 158 and it ran from Blackpool to Rochdale through Preston, along the old road to Blackburn and beyond to Rochdale. I used to travel regularly from Preston to Blackpool. There were 2 or 3 buses that did that trip. The 158 went via Weeton village whereas the 154 went via Wrea Green. Philip, congrats on your deep knowledge of the buses. -
TRANSFER THREAD - JANUARY 2021

What exactly is his injury and how did he get it? I seem to remember Kevin Gallacher saying it looks like he has stepped on something like a pitch water sprinkler. It was in an away game wasn't it?
