Why could only Rovers fans and not our board see that we desperately needed strenghtening up front?..finances should have been made available!! Very worried where the goals are going to come from.

A few FA cup stats: Number of FA cup wins Rovers 6 Burnley 1 Number of cup final appearances Rovers 8 Burnley 3 Number of semi-final appearances Rovers 16 Burnley 8 Rovers are the only existing league club to have won the cup 3 times in a row.(1884,1885,1886) Rovers hold the record for the longest unbeaten run in FA cup history. (We were unbeaten in 24 matches between 1882-1886.) Rovers 6th round cup tie match v Bolton Wanderers in 1929 attracted a record crowd of 62,522 to Ewood park. Rovers Ewood park has played host to 6 FA cup semi-final matches. (1893,1895,1913,1915,1938,1947...Burnley v Liverpool!!)

Your mates have probably never set foot into Ewood this season Waggles.........best place for 'em is the pub I definitely wont be surprised if we sell out.

Once again our club comes up tops with the free away travel..what more do people want! I have a feeling demand will be high for this game...

Straight into the queue from a 12hr nightshift on Wednesday morning....the things you do for football eh!!

What about the snazzy Lonsdale advertising along the front of the Darwen end roof........WOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Simon Garner........it says something very special about a player who,10 years after having left the club, attracts a 15,000 crowd to his testimonial game [

Why this game must be won by Rovers and our fans ........ http://boards.footymad.net/mboard/load.php...&mid=2141753525

Will be amazed if Coach travel is not compulsary with purchase of ticket.....would NOT advise Rovers fans to wear colours if your driving!!

3,000 from Chelski.

A Maximum of Four tickets can be purchased per person We will sell out.

I hope they do too Paul .....there's a few beads of sweat on my brow at the moment! Are they deliberately going out of their way to once again mate it as hard as possible for our own fans to get tickets?.Look on the Burnley website....tickets will go on open sale for them at some point.(max 6 tickets per person! )

What if you haven't travelled away this season like me but are a season ticket holder who has attended all three home cup games?......

The look of pure shock on their faces was a pleasure to behold!! Same again lads 'n' lasses. ''Stu, you seem hell bent on going to this match. If you do get a ticket your in for a 'unique' experience. I went back in the 80's to a Manx cup match with my Dad - Big Stevie - and even he was scared. I've never seen anything like it. Blokes wielding baseball bats, bricks through the train window............It's like planet of the apes ! '' Once again the policing in 2001 was excellent and Rovers fans were never in any danger..dont let storys like the above change your mind. No doubt your account is probably true AKH but thankfully matters have changed for the better in good 'owd Burn-a-lee..... errr I think!

''Or to 1 parent with 2 children or more - first come first served basis - queue outside the ground or buy a ticket to avoid que.'' So one 'diehard' Adult supporter pays £4-500 for his/her season ticket and one 'fairweather' gets into Ewood for 'nowt? how long would people turn a blind eye to that I wonder! Give us a ferkin break...please dont take the p1ss Once again, the club needs income,hard cash not spongers.

Pot, Kettle, black...are you unable to see its banter Longside? Surely, nobody in their right mind could take Burnley fc so seriously could they?...... . . . . . . . . ............

How the hell did this little shyte ever become captain of our famous old club? ...Bob Crompton must be turning in his grave! His heart was never in it from day one.....good riddance to bad rubbish. http://www.football365.com/news/scottish_n...ry_142182.shtml

As I entered that sorry excuse for a stand the singing from the Rovers fans on the packed concourse made the hair on the back of my neck stand on end.....like you mate a memory that has stayed with me! I wouldn't miss this for 'owt and my advice to any Rovers fans offered a chance to attend this game but are having second thoughts is .......you must be off your heads ffs, you'll be SO,SO sorry you weren't there to savour this rather 'special game'.

Jim, the two ties in 1960 attracted 51,000 to the Turd and 53,000 to Ewood in the space of 4 days!!!.Incredible support for the size of the towns Our record attendance is 62,522

1700!!!!!!!.......please stop now mate

How the hell can Bahgdad be worse than Burnley ?..I mean come on now

I heard that comment too PB..do we really need any more petrol pouring on the fire from a local radio station with listeners numbering the hundred's of thousand's?. Very stupid.

Where the hell do all your 'fans' usually hide then? Amazing how your support comes out of the woodwork when Rovers come to town !! ''ONLY COME TO SEE THE ROVERS''!

Fair enough Gav but if we cant sell out for this game then matters really are in a state and some!. P.S. see you in the queue shag!

Lets hope this doesn't turn into another Celtic game ticket fiasco! Ste,I have a feeling the police may not allow Rovers to put tickets on open sale just like last time to avoid chances of them falling into the wrong element of our support who will come out for this one..
