Any european 'practice' would be welcomed by Cletus.....after all, we`ve got a pretty abysmal record in Europe....& practice makes perfect.

"Australian defenseman Neill Lucas got a 12-yard kick-ball infringement score"- Roswell (Manchester Buccaneers biggest fan) Was moved from the Darwen End to Jack Walker Upper on Wednesday. Two rows behind me where what I thought Neill and Emertons fan club, but were in fact the West Tigers RL team and supporters, in town for the world Club championship against Bradford.

HAHA!! Binary!! "Look! That dog`s got a puffy tail!" (Cletus runs off....)

I like this Partick Thistle shirt from a couple of years ago.

Had to listen to the game at work last night, via the unbiased Century105 radio station......whilst working with a handful of Man Ure supporters. Did i gloat? Moi? ...i don`t think i`ve got it in me.

***GAV`S £50 BET UPDATE*** After Rovers fantastic home win against the Red Scum last night & a season best attendance of 25484, here`s how it looks:- Rovers average attendance is 20220 after 11 home games (up 526) Wigan`s average attendance is now 20548 after 13 home games (up 98) (Rovers are an average of 328 behind Wigan) Rovers total attendances are 222425 Wigan`s total attendances are 267129 (Rovers behind by 44704 but have 2 games in hand) ...both teams next 3 home games are:- Rovers ...Sunderland, Arsenal & Aston Villa Wigan...Liverpool, Man Ure & West ham (i`d say 2 near sell-outs there?) ...both teams have now played Fulham,Spuds,Newcastle,WBA,Charlton,Everton & Bolton at home, with Wigan having the larger gate on 4 occasions..(Fulham,Spuds,Newcastle & Bolton) & Rovers vs WBA, Charlton & Everton. Let`s hope last nights excellent result can coax a few more out of the woodwork!

***GAV`S £50 BET UPDATE*** After Wigan`s home game against Everton last night (21731) Here`s how they stand:- Rovers average attendance is 19694 after 10 home games (down 168) Wigan`s average attendance is now 20548 after 13 home games (up 98) (Rovers are an average of 854 behind Wigan) Rovers total attendances are 196941 Wigan`s total attendances are 267129 (Rovers behind by 70188 but have 3 games in hand) ...Hopefully the gap will close a bit after tonights game with the red scum

A most enjoyable read mr Fleming! p.s....happy birthday for Friday (incase i forget)

The 'novelty' factor of being in a new stadium will ensure full houses next year.

I think our 6 toed rivals down at the Dingle-dome will be more worried about Stanley getting back into the league.

AESF.....fantastic post!

Unfortunately i`m working nights on Wednesday, so i won`t be at the game. Hopefully a bit of revenge is on the cards for the mighty Pyros! Check out what Manchester`s biggest fan in the whole wide world thought of last weeks encounter..... Carl Ing cup semi-final success Hopefully a decent crowd on at Ewood (for Gav`s sake! )...but i`ll not hold my breath. altogether now....."COME ON YOU PYRO`S!!!"

....& has anybody noticed how Emerton runs just like C3P0?

Hear Hear!! It`s not a lot, but at least the fans can have some involvement in their club.

me voted on here & txt for home2 & away3 I always think the home shirt looks better with a flash of red around the collar.

"The famous Man Utd went to Rome to see the Pope, the famous Man Utd went to Rome to see the pope, the famous man Utd went to Rome to see the pope & this is what he said.....(2.3.4) Who the f### are Man Utd? Who the f### are Man utd? Who the f### are Man utd? ......................................... also, (the same tune) The famous Man Utd went to sail the 7 seas, '' '' '' '' '' '' '' '' '' '' '' '' '' '' '' '' '' '' '' '' but we all know 5h1t can`t float! .........................................

oooh! it`s those bomber jackets that put the fear of god into people!

You obviously couldn`t see the less than half full Jack Walker upper then? Only the middle bit had people in it. I`d say less than half full up in the gods. BBE upper was only a third full (2000 empty?) Darwen End lower, 3500 empty seats? Darwen End upper closed (3000 more empty?) Tons of empty seats around me (Riverside) & empty seats in outer areas of BBE lower.

***GAV`S £50 BET UPDATE*** Both Rovers & Wigan played home games this weekend, with dissapointing attendances for either side. Here`s how they stand:- Rovers v Bolton...att 18180 Wigan v WBA...att 17421 Rovers average attendance is now 19694 after 10 home games (down 168) Wigan`s average attendance is now 20450 after 12 home games (down 275) (Rovers are an average of 756 behind Wigan) Rovers total attendances are 196941 Wigan`s total attendances are 245398 (Rovers behind by 48457 but have 2 games in hand) Next home games for each side are... Rovers...Man Ure, Sunderland & Arsenal Wigan...Everton, Liverpool & Man Ure (3 sell outs almost guarranteed) TBH, i can`t see Rovers beating any of Wigan`s gates in the next 3 games. Rovers fans will probably be sick of the sight of Man Ure by the time our league game comes around. If we cannot get a decent gate for the Man Ure game, then i fear it`s game,set & match for Gav`s bet

...we`ll never know, unless we try him. MGP...scores great goals, fans like him but needs to contribute a bit more to his all round game.

The Notlob retards who unfurled the BWFC flag got chased the length of the Riverside & i saw at least 2 or 3 good punches landed on one of them. Bloodyhell! Rovers fans where i was sat were running down the steps to get at them. Bloody rough lot in that Riverside! ...also saw some idiots in the darwen end getting quite forcefully ejected/arrested by the police just after the Riverside incident.

It worked for Thierry Henry! It`s certainly worth a try!

A poor crowd of 18180 for the Bolton game This game had been pencilled in as a SKY pay per view, 5.15pm k/off game since the begining of the season. Everyone know`s when a Rovers game is on telly, the crowd is always affected....this one quite considerably! Only 1500 Notlobbers turned up, along with only about 16500 Roverites. ......so why the #### did the powers that be at Ewood make it a catagory A game? It was quite obvious (even the week before the game) that ticket sales had been seriously affected, so why didn`t the club come up with some sort of bums on seats offer? i.e... Kids for a quid, reduced prices, bring a friend for half price, free pie what-ever!! I am honestly starting to believe this club is run by ####ing idiots! (Q...Does anybody know how much £££ Rovers would`ve got from SKY for last nights game? Just out of interest?)

That should be a cracker of a game! Probably the 1st time in alot of years, Liverpool will feel they`ve got the better team. Expect fireworks for that one!
