  1. First time I looked at that link everything loaded, and there's a hell of a lot of photos on the LT pages, apart from the actual greyhound track! Anyway a quick Google got it sorted and some interesting detail. I do like stuff like this
  2. Yes, I've been back up there a few years ago and all changed. Uncle & Aunt's house still there as is all of that little area below the railway lines. Their house backed onto the lines, outside loo the nearest - just remembered how cold that was if I was visiting at Christmas.
  3. My Uncle who lived in Kirby Rd had a small scrap business, he called it the "pen", on land above the river at the high end of Kirby Rd. When visiting in the 60s I spent a lot of time helping him out, but more time he said looking at Ewood Park. The area is quite clear on the photo just behind the upper chimney. That was a steep slope down to the river, I never tried it out but kind of wish I had. Happy Days!
  4. I can't Edit my above Post to add - 'The lad from Norwich came across well too. Interesting that hes concerned about losing their CBs to 'Big" PL clubs even after their own promotion'
  5. You would have been more accurate publishing our full kit history. Light blue? what about 10 times in our complete history. The early use of light blue and the early switch to a darker Royal Blue can also be interpreted as our forebears quickly correcting a mistake Moral of the story: don't teach your Gran how to suck eggs. I would not have an issue with a lighter blue say once a decade.
  6. Aerial photo shows how the Road pattern dictated the shape of Ewood Park. What character the ground had
  7. Riverside was another Leitch design, great pitch view sitting at the right hand side, as you sit. Just one support blocked the view towards Darwen but a head movement sorted that.
  8. It's even more worrying about who owns and admins us if this years home strip was a long time in the planning. No friggin idea of Club identity and that we had one of the most recognised and coveted shirts in English football. Anyway 10 voters in the poll aren't arsed if we have no shorts and even more if we are sock-less. Massive cost saving potential there for Mr W to consider.
  9. What sad fuckers they are, they just can't help themselves checking into here. Chaddy, less said sooner mended. Body Part.
  10. I wondered why I saw so many Rovers fans in Yellow v Bolton. Price does matter and even though a bit tacky still better than this years Home kit, which I have a worryingly intense dislike for
  11. The best TM comments I've read in ages. Made me quite upbeat apart from an apparent complete lack of knowledge of what the Summer budget will be!
  12. Yes I noticed a lot do it, and a lot have yellow as their away colour. Our yellow has grown on me as the season has gone along, the current home colours haven't though.
  13. No we will not. At best we will be in Baby Blue & White. I completely agree re the needless, at times, wearing of the away kit. I had assumed it was part of the kit manufacturing deal or a Waggott sales line.
  14. Bielsa set to release a 2 hour PowerPoint Presentation, " How to Fuck up Automatic Promotion". Work has already started on the Playoff episode.
  15. Not yet as have been living in areas with poor internet. I expect to get much improved internet quite soon so will take an annual pass then. Presently my internet is very intermittent at times. Yesterday I bought a match pass v Bolton but video was so poor I ended up mostly with just commentary. I hope I can get better for the replay as I do want to watch the 2nd half again. Despite the above I watched the whole Pompey game in good quality on a 'stream', iFollow seems under-powered. Edit at 20.57: Just woke up after a siesta! missed the replay! its been extra hot here and just needed the kip. Annual sub needed for sure next season but at least I can watch the extended highlights.
  16. Very good post. That is what happened, I cant exactly recall the number of windows the 'build' was over. We as fans are treated as Mushroom Goldfish, which is some cases is just about spot on.
  17. It's called "Slow Build", check first with the Owners after each brick is laid. Might take a while to complete ..... about pension age methinks.
  18. That bloke Chabby sounds like a right Builders Tool.
  19. What are the final words in maestro Chaddy's Twit ''and the site is only ??'' Good to see he believes and trusts in Polls! I wonder how long he spent canvassing his mates.
