2-0 Baggies....Rovers looked a tired side on Saturday.

Alan Shearer in a Rovers shirt one last time.......CANT DESCRIBE HOW MUCH I WANT IT TO HAPPEN!!

Reade is wide of the mark.  To link the attendance at Cardiff with Hughes' tactics doesn't make any sense.  The attendances at Ewood are due to a number of factors, but as both Everton and Bolton have shown, you can play the defensive game, and if you are near the top of the table the crowds will turn up.

You're spot on Paul McGarry.What is creasing most Rovers fans is the totally false accusation that Hughes team tactics and style of play is the main factor for our supposed 'low crowds'.To me this could be potentially damaging to Hughes good work so far and dare I say position as manager.....some people are thick enough to believe what they read.

We all know that there are many different factors contributing to the fall in attendance and we have done that one to death many times over!

Tuesday night!....why not a weekend game to maximise the attendance?

Marvellous news!!

Taken from a Newcastle site,they're not happy .................

Matteo looks to have lost weight and his pace has definitely improved.

Once again a great result and a very entertaining game...the future is looking bright under Hughes!!!

'sod the £££££££ we get for getting higher up the league'

Rubbish waggles, to a club like Rovers that league position money is VERY important.Agree it would be nice to see a few fresh faces given a go though.

2-1 Rovers......looking forward to my Saturday's football again under Hughes.

ATT: 26,000

The devious b'stards have backed us into a corner,can anyone else see what's might be coming?....if a sub 20,000 crowd is at Ewood tonight the shameless media will use that as MORE justification for their argument that crowd's are staying away because of the team's style of football under Hughes..............

GGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tonight is our turn to let the press and every other anti-Blackburn bandwagon pillock know how the players and fans of this famous old club feel about the unwarranted press attacks.

Be there if you can.

well yesterday Alvin Martin was saying that the police should be called in for Toddys 'attack'.

Just what the hell is going on here? are people losing all common-sense over this

Clueless,sheep like Burnley fans jump on the bandwagon as expected ......

After reading a couple of reports this morning (Guardian and Independent) it looks as though the anti-Rovers bandwagon has morphed into a juggernaut! I really do think Rovers should consider banning a few of these nationals from the press-box, after all what harm could it do, we very rarely recieve positive press anyway. That a family club, which is run by good honest people, can be savaged by hacks the way it has for the last couple of days, is scandalous. So ban them from the press box and let them pay for their seats like the rest of us...they offer us nothing ....lets give them nothing in return.......but not before Wednesday! Wednesday gives us the opportunity to vent our frustrations on the press scum...after all we know where they are sitting. Lets give them an uncomfortable evening.....I suggest a sustained chant of 'Scum scum..' or 'You don't know what yor writing...' whilst gesticulating in their general direction. Probably wont achieve anything but will make me feel a bit better!

Sensitive little darlings aren't we?

Fans of mediocre Burnley would just be glad to see their ickle name mentioned in the press for once eh Samuel!!!!!

So in some ways, he'll be a bit unlucky to be charged, but equally if you try and take advantage of these situations then eventually you're going to get in trouble. It was stupid though as the game was over and so I'll be angry at Todd if we lose him for 3 games

If the current anti-Rovers hysteria is anything to go by dont be surprised if the poor fella is hung drawn and quartered!!

No doubt Mickey thomas,Greame sharp et al will be itching to deride everything connected to Rovers tonight on the Legends phone in...nothing unusal there then.

'THE WILD ROVER'.... why in gods name has this never been made the official club anthem?

You are spot on Roverite,lets get the frustration out of our sytems come Wednesday and roar the lads to victory....we can also send a clear message to the Southern based media as to what we think of the appalling press directed towards this fine old club.

Like Rovers fans yesterday, the Geordies were MAGNIFICENT in support of their team today!!

Northern 'bully boy' cloggers(with terrible support) 2 - Southern London based ' footballing artisans' 0

Now we have the opportunity of the final the whole country relishes, Arsenal versus Manchester United on May 21.

So there it is in black and white,unashamedly,in all its putrid arrogance for all to see.

This is the fulcrum of English football in the 21st century, summed up in a short sentence with its two fingered salute clear to all other league clubs..a sorry state of affairs indeed.

The ultimate truth is that the media would be more than happy to see Man utd,Arsenal,Liverpool and Chelski play in their own little mini league and the rest of us can go to hell,fold, never to be seen again.

I HATE THE DIRECTION FOOTBALL IS HEADING

Roll on the Palace game when we can welcome home our lads.

A bridge too far for us against a quality side but we did our best with what we have, we can all look forward to better things next season under Hughes.

The vocal support from Rovers fans was superb,I'm afraid to say Arsenal brought the 'Highbury library' with them today.....THEY MAY WELL HAVE THE NUMBERS BUT BY CHRIST WHEN IT COMES TO SUPPORT THEY ARE NOT IN THE SAME LEAGUE!!!!

I'm with you Theno, we are really taking an undeserved kicking from the media,from dirty cheating Blackburn to having apalling support, the accusations thrown at us today are infuriating and unjust.

THE 'BIG CLUB' BIAS IS UNBELIEVABLE.

Its time to stop this 'I'm a better supporter than you' ###### and direct all our energy into silencing the Arsenal come Saturday.........

WE ARE THE ONE AND ONLY BLACKBURN ROVERS F.C. .......THE PRIDE OF EAST LANCASHIRE!!!

IF we are looking at the possibility of selling 17,000 by Friday then its a decent effort in the circumstances.

If the game had been played a Villa park then I confidently predict that demand would have outstripped supply.

We have every chance.

Rovers 5 Them French's 0
