Eddie Holman - Hey There Lonely Girl

My first recollection of a Rovers match was sitting in the upper tier of the Riverside stand with my dad watching the 2nd leg of the 1959 F.A. Youth Cup final. My grandad was a steward there and made sure we had the best view, front row towards the Darwen End. I don’t remember the game itself, just the atmosphere with 28,500 fans cheering on the likes of Keith Newton, Mike England and Fred Pickering. For the Hammers they had future stalwart Harry Cripps and a couple of others who went on to play a vital part of England’s finest victory 7 years later, namely, Bobby Moore and Geoff Hurst. We won the game 1-0 in extra time, giving us a 2-1 aggregate win, that after the Rovers ‘keeper making a vital penalty save early on. Aah, the memories....... Rovers team :- Griffiths, Wells, Pickering, England, Newton, Leach, Ratcliffe, Bradshaw, Jervis, Daly(scorer), Mulvey.

I agree that 3pm Saturday should be the main KO time, but I really enjoy the atmosphere of a night match. I park up on the old Manxman pub car park and looking down to a floodlit Ewood really sets the scene for me. I’m looking forward to Monday night already. COYB.

Blue Oyster Cult - A Career Of Evil

I think more than anything the reason that people are getting into such a lather over this sudden change in sponsors is that our now cheap looking shirts are going to be plastered all over Sky for the next few weeks at least. I for one find this very embarrassing and it somewhat takes the shine off our fantastic run of results and current league position. Totally Ticked.

Boney M - Brown Girl In The Ring

Plenty of thought went into that one 😳

I know where you are coming from, myself going through the mill for 60 years now. However, you have to wipe the slate clean at the end of every season and live in hope that the next one will be “the one”. If I hadn’t had that mentality, I would have been sectioned years ago.

Then “show me” a bit more positivity whilst we are on such a good run of form.

Do you live in Missouri or Misery (both,maybe)

Kim Carnes - Bette Davis Eyes

Whoa, whoa, whoa!! Where is the connection between my Iron Butterfly - In The Garden Of Eden and Lewis Capaldi - The Coming Of Grace apart from The? Very tenuous. Let’s make it competitive:- Don McLean - Vincent
