Format of UEFA cup explained.

Still not sure what round we would enter.

Rooney news.

We can call up a replacement for him upto 24 hrs before the 1st game.

Just heard on Granada news that Preston's Nugent started the game today exactly 6 weeks after a similar injury, so there is a glimer of hope.

Owen could still play

Still, I wouldn't want to rest my world cup hopes on him.

We still have goal scorers in Cole, Gerrard and Lampard. Maybe we should play Crouch up front, and 5 in midfield.

Could this be Beattie's chance to get in the world cup squad?

Does anyone know when the squad gets announced?

Thats my lunchtime spent reading this preview, but thoroughly enjoyed it. Didn't get the joke by them.

Hoping the rest will let our players recharge their batteries, and a 3-2 win for the Rovers, with Freidel grabbing the winner in the 90th minute. (It could happen you know )

I'm going up into the attic with the noose now.  Goodbye. It's been nice chatting to you.

Colin, are you still with us?

Le Saux?

I think the team more or less picks itself, or at least the press does, so we need someone with motivational skills. That for me isn't McLaren.

My preferences in order,

O'Neill

Pearce

Fat Sam

Curbs

McLaren

As there was no Grooby option, i've gone for Bellamy.

Due to various reasons, I've not had a season ticket for the last 2 years, but some of my friends have kept theirs in the Darwen End. I'm thinking of getting one again, plus an extra one for my 4 yr old son.

But there may be some problems:

1 There will be no season tickets sold in the Darwen End.

2 There will be 6 people renewing, and 2 new applicants.

3 The 6 renewing will get a preference of where they want to sit, especially if they opt for the £250 seats in the JW lower.

Lee, if people dont renew there season tickets by the end of April, are their seats then open for new applicants? Or do we have to wait till another cut off date.

The lady in the ticket office implied that the £250 seats would be sold very quickly.

Well, its ended up 11 of us wanting season tickets, all the forms have been sent in,

and we've picked our seats provisionally. (We may get chance to move after the final renewal deadline, but i doubt it.)

We've gone for the blackburn end, inner section of NO5, five on row 11 and six on row 12. Not bad to say how many we wanted.

just for the sheer horrible speed & violence of the thing.

Colin, I couldn't have put it better.

Rovers 1-0 Liverpool

Bellamy (another contender for goal of the season)

Reid's thunderbolt at Wigan for me, what a strike, even too quick for the TV cameras.

Just got back.
