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?

Who refused 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.

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.

You can tell who knows how to manage a football team. 2nd best throughout.

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.

And Venkys said they would uphold and respect Jack Walker's legacy.

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.

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?

Travis was way off the pace of the game. I don't think he's fit. Perhaps that's why their scorer ran through midfield so easily. Still Dolan flatters to deceive. No end product. Brereton was greedy and ran into blind alleys. Armstrong and Dack were little boys lost. Davenport should have been given the whole game in midfield alongside Trybull and Downing. Douglas should have started at right back. I'm clutching at straws because we all know the real problem.

Because they don't want to receive a record number of complaints. Or maybe they are just as pissed off with Mowbray as we are.

Nigel Pearson for me.

He was on a yellow card for being too slow earlier.

This. Over the past 3 seasons I cannot see a regular steady progression of all things at the club. We need a new manager and new backroom staff.

No it was Johnson.

Nothing to see but some repetitive music to listen to.

And you call yourself a Blackburn Rovers supporter? Have you never learned the lesson over many years? This will probably be another great win for Donny regardless of whatever team we put out. Anything different to that will be a bonus.😬

That Frenzy is poor but not as bad as the By Gum..... and Come on......... which were embarrassing. Chelsea had a good one with "Blue is the colour", and Spurs had "Nice one Cyril" The best for me is the current version of "Wild Rover" which they play at Ewood.

My dad took me in the early 1950s. We always sat in Nuttall Street stand, Stand B which was the one at an angle nearest the Blackburn End. There we sat on benches as in the previous photograph. The straight stand running to the Darwen End was known as Stand A and, as far as I know, had individual (bucket) seats. We also took my dad's friend who had lost a leg in the 1st world war. We always left early, about 5 minutes before full time, to get back to my dad's car which he parked up that little street in front of The Fox and Hounds. It was Stand B that later burnt down. Just think, 47er, us little lads may have been sitting near each other in those days.

I don't blame him. Gone to China to avoid this awful COVID.

Appleton wasn't here long enough for us to see what he could do. Neither was Berg.

Askey gone from Port Vale, too. He was there as long as Mowbray has been with us, nobbut.
