  1. In summary, none of the play off teams will survive the Prem We have the youngest squad, keep the manager, buy a striker and a couple of decent loans, youngsters will be a year stronger and we might just be happy this time next year Last min goals v Sunderland, PNE and Cov did us As long as we learn we can come back stronger
  2. I had tickets in the home end bought by a mate s uncle who lived in Fulham We showed them at the away end turnstiles and they said they are for the home end, we said we are rovers fans aint going in there so he said fine come in Thankfully
  3. Nothing will ever compare to the hurt of Palace away, the game, the away corner, forgetting where the car was parked, the long drive back to Lancs...
  4. I got interviewed for TV outside the Football Store in Carnaby Street that week, the reporter mentioned something about Gary Lineker and I said he should have signed for Blackburn Rovers, he looked at me like I was an alien, obviously had not ehard the rumour
  5. Yes I was there When they came running over at the end I feared the worse but they were happy Not so sure if it had been W Ham or someone else it would have been so friendly Packed the union jack and left sharpish
  6. Optimistic Our luck will change 3 nil, beat Millwall , beat Luton over 2 legs and then blast a last minute winner pass the shithouse Cov keeper at Wemberlee
  7. My son was born in Oxford so supports OUFC, with BRFC his second team So I saw Derek many times pre Covid as number 2 at Oxford, he is still there in a supportive capacity but no longer on the bench Glen Keeley I sat next to on a flight back from Japan a few years ago, he does some coaching of under privileged kids.
  8. To be fair, I did not run on, after the pitch invasion had happened I merely walked on , had a photo and departed. However you are inaccurate, the team came back out and they celebrated in front of the supporters, perhaps you left early and missed that. As much as I deplore pitch invasions, after Steve Kean, 2 relegations and Venky ownership, an impromptu outpouring of emotions can be forgiven. Its called life and happiness
  9. Why was it ruined? That sounds a slight grumpy exaggeration People ran onto the pitch ( me included , excepted I walked from the home stand) celebrated and left, managing to walk into the bar at hospitality via the Directors Box on the way back The rovers team came out and fans stayed in the stand and everyone celebrated, happy days
  10. I would be tempted to keep Sammie up top Play JRC in Midfield in front of Britain... A draw not a disaster with Luton already int he play offs they may rest a couple Scaremongering anyone would think armed Russians were coming to town FA Cup replay there were 8k dingles and police had it under control No Burnley fans will be in rovers end, get the tickets and support the boys , its a massive game
  11. Calm down what hysteria anyone would think armed Russians are coming to town FA Cup replay 30k on, 8k with six fingers, police under control Get your tickets and get down to support its a massive game
  12. Apart from two silly mistakes best performance of the season onwards and upwards
  13. Very disappointing like JDT but some strange selections mola at Turd Moor not playing Thomas today when he can’t play on Monday ? freezing A Wharton out for so long need Dolan Wharton to start Monday for sure
  14. Looks a cracking day for it. Can’t make it back north for this one but let’s hope the team respond to a bumper crowd a la Sheff Utd away , and let’s get a two goal lead rather than sit back nervy 1 nil BB time to find your deadly finishing streak please
  15. Not only did we pass Swansea coaches at one the services with a bridge linking north to south there was a big scrap over the motorway both my brothers were on a coach that stopped at the services and the majority went across to confront the jubilant Welsh I was too young to be allowed to go in hindsight best we never achieved back to back promotions was an ageing team and 1992 had a much better outcome
  16. Yes definitely came from Camblewick Green
  17. Yes that was the worse footballing day of my life could not find our car in the streets of sarf London a long journey back 1990 WC closest
  18. As we walked out the ground disappointed we all said hope they draw city and get stuffed . The positive was we avoid a costly Wembley trip and enjoy the play off final trip more
  19. Cheers he has an offer but has not yet visited , so the cup draw was perfect opportunity to do so. I think he will like the city
  20. Arriving tomorrow coinciding with son’s open day at the uni
  21. Started nuttall street stand with Grandad 1975 then riverside stand with uncle 1978 then riverside terrace until it closed then went into the enclosure had season tickets in JW upper for a few years riverside terrace the favourite
  22. Traveling up for this one , an FA Cup final missing from the rovers CV , so let’s hope we turn up
