RIP Ronnie.

Saw Kick Ass on Wednesday. What an absolute joy.

Read a review of this on ign and I'm intrigued but it says it takes a couple of hours to get going but it should be persisted with as it's great.

Condolences to John's family. Very sad.

What an awful thing to happen. RIP. Some of the reactions on here are disappointing. A lad's lost his life. Now's not the time for point scoring.

Awful news.

Tributes to Sir Bobby

An absolute legend. Very sad news. RIP Sir Bobby.

After they scored Barca bossed it. Mes que un club.

Went to The Sparling on Garstang Road in Barton the other week. It's a gastropub with an astonishingly cheap weekday menu - Mon - Thursday 3 courses for 7.99. Delicious fresh prepared food that you'd be hard pushed to get for less than at least double that elsewhere.

The last paragraph is far more important than anything else he said in the article. He can moan all he likes about Ronaldo. Who cares? I'll put up with drivel like that if it ensures there's no 39th game.

Well done them. Incidentally this is related to their new singing area. IMO were there to be a singing area created, it would significantly improve the atmosphere at Ewood but only if it were to be accompanied by a drumming ban, otherwise it would be in vain.

I've made this point time and time again. It's not whether or not we need a better drummer, but simply a matter of physics. Sound takes time to get travel across the stands, so by the time he hears a chant at the corners of the stand and copies it, it's completely out of time. This will forever be the case no matter who drums. And for those who moan that we moan, do you not understand anything we've said about his antics ruining the atmosphere. It will take some considerable time without him for people to learn how to chant again. We used to do it without him and we can do it again. Miracles won't happen overnight.

To all those who see that one game without drummer means get him back, I ask you this. If a smack head goes on a programme to get off heroin and goes cold turkey they start to shiver and shake. Is the best way to help them to give them more heroin? Of course not. The drummer is the musical and atmospheric equivalent of heroin to the BBE. Just say no.

Yet I've lost count of the number of times when a chant has been started in the BBE, only for it to be ruined by the drummers joining in. This is a simple matter of acoustics. By the time they hear it and react, because sound travels as a particular speed they will ALWAYS end up being out of time, especially when the chant it started in the corners. I've said this time and time again. Drums cannot, and will never, improve the atmosphere.
