SIMON GARNERS 194

Shudder at the thought.Will we also be able to create anything like the atmosphere the Hammers fans did today(they really were their twelth man) for next week......sadly we all know the answer to that. Watched the game again and they took the p1ss out of us the second half...totally humiliated us.

I've slightly calmed down now but I think today has been quite a shock to the system and a wake up call for all concerned with Rovers.I mentioned when the team was announced that I thought we had a strong squad out today that should be worth at least a point?....mmmmm Just goes to show you can take nothing from the pre-season form etc. Anyway, onwards and hopefully upwards,a win next week and this board will all be smiles again.

Hopefully today's reckless lunge will be Dickov's last act in a Blackburn Rovers shirt. Agree there Rev,the team/club/fans cant afford and dont want this reckless @#/? anymore...it will cost us dearly in the long run.

I most certainly agree with the rest of your analysis, though, and especially in your saying that we cannot play with two strikers Please dont,its so depressing!!!

Cant wait for Hughes summary of that pathetic second half,I really cant.

Savage Emerton Bellamy ALL ANONYMOUS. Too many players just not involved ....very disappointing. West ham fans taking the p1ss.

Living up to our dirty tag I'm afraid,rags to have a field day tomorrow.......should be a belting crowd on Ewood next Sat

3-1 West ham..........ABSOLUTE F'KIN NIGHTMARE Well done Emerton. Dickov has now been sent off.....what a mess

Dickov on...back to 4-4-2 to chase the game

Bring Bellamy on!!!! **cough**

2-1 Hammers. JHC!

We're getting ripped to pieces ffs!! Bellamy anonymous but clearly NOT fit.

Strong Rovers side there.....surely worth at least a point today. COME ON YOU BLUES!!!!

The only answer appears to lie on the pitch...the comment I constantly hear is "why go and spend good money watching this crap". And that is the crux of the matter Blue....lets just hope the team can deliver

A game thats too close to call so.......1-1 Att: 19,400

Should we be looking higher or lower than that figure then Lee? The matchday walk-ons are now so important to Rovers if we have only sold around 11,000 season tickets.Like many have stated its now imperative that matters take a turn for the better on the field of play to make sure these 7-8,000 people turn up every other week or attendances could clearly take a dramatic turn for the worse. Its make or break this season folks.

2-0 Rovers. Att: 19,500

Back the the sponsorship comment Personally I find it a bitter pill to swallow when the likes of fookin WIGAN,yes that great footballing club/tradition of WIGAN ATHLETIC PLC can command bigger sponsorship than ex-Premierleague champions Blackburn Rovers. 'KIN ELL!! But then again you only have to look at the Ewood Roverstore/Sportsworld/Lonsdale cheap bric a brac shop to see the way the clubs whole commercial side is heading....down the drain.

Spare seat anyone!! http://www.football365.com/teams/mancheste...ry_159250.shtml

2-1 Rovers! Bellamy and Pedersen.

Friedel???????? Moyes can look all he wants.

Leeds city is 7 TIMES the size of Blackburn,they have massive support in the satellite towns of North and West Yorkshire....what do you expect? Whats this present structure at Ewood stopping us from doubling our gate?....PLEASE DONT START WITH THE CLUB MERGER BULL!!

Leeds had their lowest gate for 15 years yesterday...just 20,000 turned out to watch their home game with Millwall.Away fans were banned but that wouldn't have made much difference.20,000 from a city of 700,000 inhabitants puts matters into perspective. Where the hell have the other 20k gone!!

21,000 v Barca. 9,000 v Lazio.
