  1. We're a bloody awful side, who's confidence is shot to hell.Chelsea are taking the pish out of us. We need a miracle to stay in this league. -15 goals against ......appalling,the worst in the league
  2. Have said the same for ages...give the Blackburn End back to the hardcore supporter. Excellent post Alan75, you sum up the feeling's of many as to why a trip to Ewood has lost its spark for an ever increasing number of fan's. To compare the atmosphere of the now Ewood to that of the heady day's of Shearer etc is very painful.The buzz and expectancy before the game's back then was simply tremendous,you would hear the Blackburn end singing and chanting before the players even entered the field of play......now its a half hearted round of applause at best.
  3. Couldn't agree more,you know what you have to do at the Liverpool match Rovers fans....over to us.
  4. I am led to believe that John Williams does read this mb from time to time. There are now 6 page's to this thread of Rovers fan's who have grave concern's about the events of Saturday gone and are clearly worried that these problem's with heavy handed stewarding and policeing could badly escalate in the very near future. All I will further say on this matter is that if no reply is forthwith,if you act like those oh so wise monkey's with your ear's,mouth's and eye's covered and simply refuse to listen to the supporter's who remain the REAL lifeblood of this famous old club then those people to whom it concerns at Ewood should not be in the positions they hold. DONT TREAT THE FANS WITH CONTEMPT.
  5. I'm sorry to say Colin but if you have away fans literally feet away in the home fans section and deliberately being provocotive just what the hell do you expect the reaction to be....give them a friendly wave and send them a round of drinks? What we need is a simple explanation from the club as to why this standing rule is not equally enforced with the away fans,that is all we ask. We wait with baited breath....................................................................
  6. At present his summery is not far off the mark.....you have to swallow your pride sometimes FLB.
  7. Surely the company which leases the box in question should be brought to book. They allowed a bunch of drunken smoggies to goad the fans directly in front of them in the BBE, resulting in a potentially dangerous situation. Put another way, it seems to me that the Boro "fans" in the corporate box incited a response from the supporters in the BBE, and disorder then followed. Incitement to disorder is a criminal offence, as is facilitating such incitement. Does anyone know, or have any way of finding out, to whom the box belonged? Good call Morph,to put away supporters(even if they are behind glass) literally feet away from the home supporters in the most partisan section of Ewood is foolish to say the least.
  8. Would it be possible to send an 'official brfcs.com'e-mail to John Williams on behalf of members on this board to outline the problems and general feeling?
  9. From my seat in area NO4 I didn't see this incident but I'm bl00dy furious at the news The atmosphere is bad enough without this sort of provocation..... Like I said on the safe standing thread I'm slowly losing interest and matters like this only help to compound this feeling!!!
  10. The worst performance I have seen for years.Sorry to say but right from the kick off our players didn't look up for it..what the hell is going on?,where the hell is our next win coming from?. There is going to be some real trouble in the BBE very soon if the stewards dont back off..coupled with these awful performances there were a lot of angry faces today.There was also some trouble on Livesey branch Rd with the police being heavy handed. WHAT AN AWFUL DAY.
  11. Douglas to walk it,his name is still revered even in my generation,how many players can claim to have scored against Brazil? Ripley comes second for me..the way he used to beat his man so consistently and then his pin point crosses to the head of Shearer brought only one painful conclusion for the opposition!. I have not seen a winger to match his ability since he left the club.
  12. The club haven't the ###### to do anything pro-active about it.Its up to the fans to make (pardon the pun) a stand against this now enforced sit down,dont move or breathe shyte.It would appear the clubs only interest is bowing to the corporate cash cow. If the whole bottom tier of the Blackburn end stood in unison to make a point there would be nothing the bumbling stewards could do about it just like the away fans in the Darwen End. Back in the day, the old Ewood with 8,000 fans on created a better atmosphere than at present.... its vertually non-existent now.We dont want f'kin drums and stupid inflatable plastic footballers when we score I'm slowly losing interest to be honest and it pains me to say that,tomorrows game holds no expectancy for me,another run of the mill game played infront of a home crowd who have had their passion literally kicked out of them by their own. YAWWWNNNN!!!How very,very boring this clubs 'matchday experience ' has now become.
  13. Stamford Bridge!?....where's Bloomfield Park in that list
  14. Based on current form we're in for a pasting.Big worries about their strong attack and our static defence. Rovers 2 Boro 12 Att: 15,000 with 5k from Boro
  15. Enjoyed the game especially the second half.....good atmosphere and a very respectable 17k crowd.The lad Stead played well and was unlucky with the excellent 20 yard effort off the cross bar. Lets hope to see a few more internationals at Ewood in the future.
  16. Yes, obviously people will pay for the previlege of having an England U21 game at Ewood....stop being so bloody miserable ffs!!
  17. Common Rovers fans lets try and push that up to 20k!!
  18. Some wonderfull memories been brought back indeed, More Rovers supporters than Oldham at Boundry park @ 1987/88 to see 'Don McKays blue 'n' white army'....8k plus on the big open terrace. Stoke away around the same season to see Rovers finally lose that unbeaten run.....5k and a bit 'o bother at the end of the game. A bit before my time but one for our Burnley visitors on here to chew on: Turf moor, Boxing day '77. Over 10k travelled from Blackburn(Dean Hayes book 'East Lancashire Derbies' describes Rovers as being 'cheered on by a massive following'). By all accounts the away end was packed solid by 1 o'clock and this saw hundreds of Rovers fans being put in the Bee hole end!! Would love to hear a few more recollections of that day by some old heads on here
  19. Stead to start!......come on, buy those tickets and back the lads. http://www.thefa.com/
  20. Expect a crowd of between 15-20k. The England U21's played the Ukraine at Middlesborough in August in front of only just over 5,000!!!
  21. If either club came in with 10 million chances are we would sell..in the cold light of day we all have to face the fact that Rovers are no longer a footballing force both on and off the field. Such is life.
  22. A bunch of pussies who are more interested in the pay day rather than wearing the famous shirt. That aside, 2-1 England.
  23. I've already given my opinion for the drop in attendances...spood fed,glory hunting support that joined the bandwagon when JW arrived combined with traditional fickle support!!!! The above aren't conditions that should give us the green light for a merger are they though? Rovers have known much harder times,the 70's 80's saw the club on its knees but was a merger ever mooted then?.............. All I'm saying is that clubs in this area have very strong traditions,strong bonds with their respective community's that have lasted for over a century NONE of Blackburn ,Burnley,Bolton,Preston and Blackpool can be considered 'nothing clubs'....this is where your argument for club merger falls flat on its face Theno. Your serve.
