  1. Seriously wish that was us.
  2. Note that only a couple of the players are wearing the Maltese Cross. @Parsonblue I can't remember exactly where I saw that report, I could well be confusing two different reports as I read a whole bunch around the same time. I should have saved the page I saw it on. One thing for sure is that I've never seen anything to say that the team ever wore a plain white shirt. As has been mentioned, just because it was suggested in a meeting doesn't mean it was actually brought to fruition. I do agree that the possibility of a football team being formed Christmas 1874 and playing a few matches before being properly organised as a club is the most likely scenario here. At the end of the day our blue and white 'quarters' (as they were referred to back then) are totally unique in world football. Why we wouldn't celebrate that on what is supposed to be the 150th anniversary season I don't know, but hey venkys/kentaro/whoever else has their fingers in the pie have decided to celebrate this occasion by deliberately relegating both the men's and women's teams.
  3. They're not fans. Never have been, never will be.
  4. I reached the point of not giving a fuck a while back so I'm actually finding a lot of this quite funny. What else can one do? It's so completely absurd. For anyone to say that the squad we have now is in any way equal or better than the already poor squad we had last year is completely and utterly ridiculous. As I said when he was appointed, this guy is totally irrelevant. The sheer level of ineptitude of the people who run this club just keeps reaching hilarious new levels week after week. Seriously, if you support or defend them in any way you are not, nor have you ever been a fan of Blackburn Rovers. Just go away and fuck your sister like all your other inbred Dingle mates/cousins/parents/lovers.
  5. Now there's a game I need to learn how to play.
  6. The Animals - House Of The Rising Sun
  7. We're all behind you here Dee Cee
  8. As long as we're around there will always be a Rovers den.
  9. So like I was saying, I'd swap with Sheffield Wednesday any day of the week. There is nothing worse for a football club than to have it be owned (supposedly) by venkys.
  10. Also other contemporary sources of quite possibly the first ever game played at Church which states that the team wore blue and white quarters.
  11. I can accept the club failing and the team performing poorly. I can't and won't accept when those things are done deliberately by choice.
  12. End of the day the only protest that will raise any awareness is one of two options 1. Total boycott - Not happening 2. Cause so much disruption that the game gets abandoned - Also not happening
  13. No evidence to suggest that the team ever played in those colours though. The date of the foundation of the club is also up for debate.
  14. I'd hazard a guess that it's the same clique as before, just a few new faces.
  15. Exactly my thoughts. We need to emphasize that they are bringing the reputation of the Indian nation into disrepute with their levels of sheer brain dead incompetence.
  16. 100% Born in Blackburn. Bleed blue & white. Rovers till I die.
  17. What a load of fucking bollocks. The fact they gave one to that dolloper Mowbray one completely devalues them. More cheap easy shit.
  18. You need a shred of integrity to have those emotions.
  19. Yep, 100% everything in that brief article is totally correct. Especially the line "venkys make Chansiri look competent".
  20. Well there's all that lovely commission for one thing.
  21. Filled out the survey.
  22. Don't know if anyone else has read this, not about Rovers specifically but it highlights how much of a proper football town Blackburn is and how pivotal the town was in the development of the game. https://www.thefootballhistoryboys.com/2023/09/blackburn-olympic-footballs-most.html?m=1
