Ye really are. Gerrard is doing some job there and I had my doubts about why he took that job of all places. It would be an incredible achievement if he won the league. I think Celtic got a bit complacent, but I suppose that can happen after, what is it now, 7 titles in a row? At least the league is interesting again anyway 

Yes but we don’t see them as real League wins They had no competition Gerrard doing really well I thought he would lift place 

I tip him one day as England manager remember I wrote this I hope stays few seasons It’s large Club great place learn for him & Europe as well

Boo, come on Celtic  

Would I be correct in saying that with Rovers fans it seems a lot have either Celtic or Rangers as a 2nd team? It seems about 70% , 30% Celtic. 

I could be imagining this. 

I'm not actually mad into Celtic at all myself. I couldn't even tell you their starting 11. I can name about 3 players to be honest. 

Lol We are catching them 

I think Blackburn & Rangers have good relations because had same players inc Captains 

And both are Blue noses lol

 I hope take in Blackburn match in not too far away future

Really struggling to understand you mate. If you struggle with punctuation can you separate sentences by starting a new line?

The only reason I mentioned it was because the club has had a love-hate relationship with this (independent) forum in the past.

Sorry punctuation not the best 

Club were more happy point me too forum 

Not a problem have nice weekend

I remember being on holiday in Florida during the summer of 2001 after we'd signed Tugay, I remember walking around Universal Islands of Adventure theme park and spotted a teenage kid (similar to me at the time) wearing a Rangers shirt with 17 Tugay on the back.  We'd just signed him at that point, after a lengthy battle with getting a work permit too IIRC, and distinctly remember thinking.. "He must be popular if someone has got his name on the back of the shirt''.

Little did I know that he'd go on to become one of my favourite all time Rovers players and I'd have 5 Tugay on the back of my Rovers home shirt a few years later...

 

Blackburn got one real gem of Talent in Tugay wouldn’t have taken long for fans realise what machine he was what a deal Blackburn got Player who gave everything easily mix with best & outplay then also

I'm under 50, Shearer was better.

I'm not saying that Tugay wasn't class though.

Shearer was goal machine Tough as well Like Rangers McCoist Could Take roughness & give it out as well Proper old School player Tugay was different class

 I’m sure fans have many memories of both

Had Tugay on my shirt as a kid. Growing up in the Midlands had the usual jibes of "Too Gay". That was until he announced his presence in English football and everyone realised the man had a gift.

My favourite player ever and always will be.

What player he was Opposition fans would’ve loved had him I was gutted left Ibrox but also delighted see could hold his own & then some against other great players 

He covered whole pitch but had football brain just knew when play it simple & when open up & spray passes Defend,attack he had it all Hopefully both Rangers & Blackburn see such talent again

I don't think you will speak to any Rovers fan under the age of 50 who could say there has ever been a better footballer than Tugay to wear a Blackburn shirt 

Tugay was amazing Rangers fans were gutted he left Blackburn got one great player Gave it everything all over field 

I’d like say Thankyou to members for making me feel welcome even tho my first love is Glasgow Rangers & Blackburn Rovers my “English Club” I appreciate made felt welcome 

Wish BOTH Rangers & Blackburn can return to good years Both sets fans gotten see great players in both Blue Jerseys Id like see read fans opinion on Players that’s played both clubs If liked them or disliked Big Colin Hendry fitted in so easily at Ibrox Tugay Obv fav Not all players with ability fit in easily but when have that determination & desire the fans sense & pick up on it One player I always wished could’ve worn both jerseys was Shearer Blackburn’s McCoist 

I hope enjoy few photos I post hope find new home for them in meantime Share with Genuine Rovers Fans

Best player I seen at rovers to this day.  First season ticket in 2000. Hope to see that quality in a blue and white shirt one day.

I live in dunfermline. My neighbour is a teddy bear also. He has a big photo frame of 2 cans of mckewans lager but one with a rangers badge  and the other with a rovers badge on it. With the title blue brothers.

 

That’s cool Tugay always have 100% Had amazing football brain Knew when keep it simple first and foremost possession Then see pass & spray ball about Also scored few as well

Possibly few Older Generation will recognise few faces 

Fan Quiz see who can name any of Players ,position etc 

As Glasgow Rangers fan I began take interest in Blackburn Rovers when one my fav players TUGAY became Rovers player Followed his progress A number players have worn both Blue Jerseys Ferguson,Amoruso,Hendry,May  to name a few All have same leadership quality but Tugay was exceptional player could spray ball about & also defend 

Both clubs had similar chairmen both involved steel Wanted dream team & success sadly was downfall of my club BUT I got see some real quality players & Rangers getting back to top I hope Blackburn can as well

Both Clubs continue rebuild & have mutual respect
