My personal choice with games that most sum them up are: - Colin Hendry (Liverpool away, we drew 0-0, only Hendry stood between us and a thrashing) - Henning Berg (Coca Cola Cup Final - he marshalled, organised, sorted out our defence and we won) - Howard Gayle (scored at Watford away one evening, came over towards us, and only the Police prevented him jumping over the wall and into the away fans)

Very annoyed with this. I can only really do the London games if they are a weekend and are 3pm kick offs. The Southampton games also looks like a no-sleep-the-night-before effort. Just spoke to JPW and looks like the Intack Minibus might not make its first appearance until Sept 11th at Newcastle and then again at Chelsea on Oct 23.

We've arranged the meet up. Oklahoma wants me to bring him a Rovers shirt, is there anywhere in Blackburn that is still selling them?

I think that JPW is probably the only one who could give a run down of the team, as he was the one who organised it. As has been said we were unlucky to get beat by such a score, bit I think that we all enjoyed a game played in the right spirit. I'm sure that we will do a lot better next time. Nice to meet some new faces off the messageboard. By the way Tom, SteB was on the pitch for some of the second half, he knocked off early and could be seen watching the rest of the game from the pub opposite. The highlight of his contribution was a momentous collision with I think, JPW, the sound of which was probably heard at Ewood Park...

PS - anyone else who is in Porto for the game and fancies coming, just PM me.

See your Personal Messages lads, I'm suggesting that we meet up before the Germany-Holland game, and at least have our photo taken uner the BRFCS.COM flag, which I have for the tournament.

I'll take the big flag Glenn, if you can find a way to get it to me before 12 June. We're going to five games in and around Porto (fancy a meet up before Germany-Holland, Ricky?), and I'll try and get the flag up at the stadium. Just think Glenn, a whole week of listening to Councillor D.'s jokes...

Must have been those 'Cheeky Vimto's' we were drinking. For those of you feeling rough on Sunday, spare a thought for us living dead of the London Branch trying to play football at Brockhall in the afternoon heat. Even Cath's goalkeeping talents couldn't have saved us Cocker, we lost 11-2 to The Fieldens Arms. It could have been a worse scoreline but for us sneaking on (goal hero) Mushy as a ringer. Thanks again Mushy. Ok Rob, did enjoy myself although it was too hot, and I'm getting too old for this... Remember we agreed to a London Branch v Messageboard game next season, when we're down in London. When the fixtures are out we'll arrange something well in advance, on the weekend we all stop over. I'm sure we can raise a team.

I'm not being rude, but I have an inflatable pair of tits. Don't ask me how I got them. I won't be wearing them on Saturday, but if anyone wants to borrow them, then let me know, and I'll bring them with me. I'll be travelling with Glenn, JPW and that lot.

Just heard (off a Celtic fan) that 2000 extra tickets have gone on public sale today. My friend has just got a ticket. See you there.

Just got back from three days away(and went to Ajax v Rosenborg last night), and have picked up my tickets from the Ticket Office. I handed in my application (with Sofia stubs) after the game on Saturday, and the Club rang me yesterday to ask me to come and pick them up. I wouldn't have known about this had I not read the messageboard. I've just read 20-odd pages of messageboard, and must admit I am very sorry for those who can't go. You always tend to see the same faces at away games and they should of course be given prioirity.
