It’d be more like the club recently if we just let them go to other forums for free … -
Don’t forget we’re just a bunch of volunteers, so As always, it’s a case of biggest bang for the smallest buck, what’s the thing we can do for the least “effort” that will please the most people. something like the the 92 club is very niche and there’s other places already doing it, we need a BRFCS slant on it or something that makes it better than the other offerings so that the number of people using it makes the effort worthwhile. I hope you understand. Everyone keep your eyes out for what we HAVE been doing over the summer.

Jon Dahl Tomasson - Sweden coach

Left winger at Rochdale. -
Yeah, leave it with me.

I get what you're saying but this is a football forum, not a political one, and it's not the political discussion that causes the issues, it's the tone, the fact that people can't be civil with each other so it's not a debate, it's just an argument. There are plenty of (better!) places to have whatever political debate you like, but we want this to be the best place to have Blackburn Rovers discussions.

Blackpool's Jake Daniels Comes Out As Gay
StubbsUK replied to iSeeRed's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I think those people will get called out nowadays though, like the racists & that guy giving the Nazi salute did. I'd like to think I'd call it out to a steward if it happened near me. -
BRFCS Player Of The Season 2021/22
StubbsUK replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
tbh, it was really close between the top 5 (see the article for how we worked it out) and I don't think anyone would have argued* against any of them. * I realise this is BRFCS.com so of course someone would argue, if I said we play in blue and white halves someone would argue about that too. 😆 -

I know the prevailing view of BRFCS.com members towards Tony & his tenure at Ewood is negative and with his contract expiring this summer it does feel like the right time to go for reasons that have been done to death in previous posts, but I think a lot of what he's done for the club while he's been here is largely behind the scenes and not instantly visible or front of people's minds. So, here's a list of things that I think are better than when he arrived. 1) League position. The trend between 2017 and today has been upwards, only 1 season did we finish lower than the season before. Well, technically 2 because 2nd in League 1 is lower than the Championship. 2) Squad value/saleability. There's no denying Blackburn are both reliant now on the owners benevolence, and player sales to stay afloat and under Tony we've now had sales of raya, Armstrong and probably Brereton (arguably Dack would also have gone for a tidy profit if he hadn't been sidelined) to help keep us going. We've also had a nice steady stream of players graduate from the academy and should be saleable assets in the future. The down side to this is debt is still growing but with factors like having a season with no fans it's hard to pin that on Tony ... look elsewhere in the club. 3) Our recruitment network is back up and running after being in tatters. 4) We are a trusted club with top class clubs like Liverpool and Manchester City willing to lend us their upcoming talent like Elliot, Adarabioyo and Van Heck because they know the players will be developed on and off the pitch, not just used as bench warmers. Like it or not these kind of players are a big source of talent for teams like us. 5) Stability. He halted the crazy shit-show that was the Blackburn Rovers Managerial Merry Go Round of Ineptitude (Coming soon to an Easter Fayre near you). So there's my 5 reasons, I actually have a few more but I think that'll do. Despite everything that's happened since Christmas this has been one of my favourite seasons watching the team and it will stay with me for a long time.

What about non-rovers related stuff? Some of the stuff foreign teams come up with is brilliant.

Apart from the obvious replica shirts, training gear, scarves & pens, what's the best football merch you've ever seen? Rovers related or not.

Where are Rovers old grounds?
StubbsUK replied to StubbsUK's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
The National Library of Scotland has just released some new geo-coded OS maps ... unfortunately the one that might or might not show the ground at Leamington Road is just off what they have released 😞 https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/#zoom=18.152241674182456&lat=53.75206&lon=-2.50313&layers=117746212&b=1 It's still a fascinating map otherwise. -
