Hi Matey, I went to the game on the 13th of Oct 1970. Rovers played more or less a reserve side and lost 2-0. I used to have the programme but I gave it to my son a few years ago and he subsequently sold it to a Rovers collector on the internet. If I recall correctly it was just a single sheet of paper with the teams printed on it.

Given nearly every other team we will come up against will have more “ physicality “ than us it looks like we’re in for a rough time. Any team with less physicality is in real trouble.

It’s Venkie Rovers for me at the moment. The Blackburn Rovers I grew up supporting left the stadium years ago

They’ve hollowed the club out into next to nothingness. It’s now a husk of the club I grew up supporting.

Of course, you’ve got to fight for the right to play your football first and foremost.

I’ve said that all along. To football your way out of this league you need the likes of Duff, Dunn, Jansen, etc etc. Trying it with lesser players will only get you where Rovers are today.

My grandson went today on his own for the first time - his view - “ It was alright but very cold, and toxic at full time. The boos were ringing out anyway “.

Ooijer had a rough start but turned into a class act. Then he very unluckily broke his leg.

Players feeling sorry for them selves ? Not a good sign.
