Let me inform our uneducated friend that Shearer scored on average, in every other game he played at international level.

The odd goal

Now now Rovers fans I have some shocking news...............................

Journalist......................on...................YOSS...........................DEFENDS..............Rovers

.....................Saying........................it ............................WAS....................A..........PENALTY.

Twonk Marsh is saying it wasn't tho.

The journalist defending us on Sky sports is Henry Winter

Roll on January....................

Unfortunately Mrs J, if we carry on how we have started, by the time January comes we may be looking at what players to sell and buy to construct a competitive squad for "the championship div1 thingy"

I can`t beleive only Jim has touched on the subject that Neill was woefully at fault for the goal. What was he trying to do? Duck out of the way?

Brad 7

Neill 3

matteo 4

Amo 4

Gray 7.5

emerton 6.5

Jansen 6.5

Flitty : Can`t rate him as he wasn`t playing

Fergy ; see above

Dickov 7 worked hard

Stead 6.5 worked hard, must keep his chin up

Jay.B caused trouble for the last 10 mins

So, we have hard working forwards getting no supply from midfield because midfield are to worried about helping out an awful defence.

And how crap our defenders can be.

Agreed

tugay misses

bournemouth score, we`re out

jansen makes it 6-5...bournemouth to go

they .............. score

douglas scores.......bournemouth must score

they do

4-3 to us...but bournemouth to go...bear with me, flood control

4-4 they scored...now sudden death

its 3-3 after 4 pens each

Make that "miss 3 goals". One of them is theirs however

Its now 3-3

cocker mate...we`re now winning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Tell me about it Alank, Spat the dummy, left chat and turned sky off. Went for a fag and cracked open another can. Then I thought 'maybe Everton have been beaten and that will cheer me up a litte. Turned everything back on and started dancing round the room.

La La La

La La

La La La

La La

(to the tune of La La)

Can`t beat a bit of La La when you miss 2 goals. You`re a riversider aren`t you

cocker mate...we`re now winning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Cocker, come back to chat we`ve only bloody scored!!!!!!!1

Chuffed to bits.

New gaffer and Matty all in one day.

Made up I am.

I`m with you Paul. Its been an exciting few days, there is an air of optimism around and I can`t wait to see how we get on tomorrow.

I`ve given the knuckle dragging topic to much of my time already.

lock it guys, just lock it

this is turning in to the squable that some new members want it to

lock it guys, just lock it

So 'knuckle draggers' have stopped you bringing your family to the game? Where do you take them in to the pubs in blackburn (ie postal order) after a match?

What a fool we are not in the 80s any more, anyone who claims to have seen trouble at ewood and therefore thought twice about bringing their family is a bit of a loser if you ask me. The only time I have ever seen trouble at ewood is when rovers fans have sold there tickets (so loyal) to away fans who are then sat in home areas. Even then the stewards deal with it quickly. Blackburn is probably THE most family friendly club in the prem and rightly proud of it.

I obviously imagened seeing sheffield wednesday fans kicking cars full of families on the bolton road after losing to us in the worthington cup semi final.

All I`ll say about the kind of knuckle draggers that cause normal family men to not take their kids to the game is WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND.

Ban them! They should nail them to the floor and use them to show the rest of the world what a fool looks like.

Surely that would count as police brutallity.

No its called justice and in a one on one I wouldn`t stop there believe me pal.

I am one of the happy's as well.  He wasn't my first choice- Strachan was, but for sentimental rather than purely logical reasons.

I've been happy since the short list was "announced".  I'd have been happy with them.  I'd even have tolerated Advocaat until I was looking up some stats on the dirties website and realised just how rubbish he was.

Will see you all at the Middlesbrough game.

Alank, here you go.

I`m speechless, distraught even.

Who the bleedin ell am I going to argue with now?

That USA Blue chap seems unhappy...how about it? Never liked Phoenix anyway

Disapppointing to read all this negative reaction to the appointment of Mark Hughes.

We should all extend him a very warm welcome to the club and wish him luck in sorting out the mess left by Souness, starting with victory over Pompey on Saturday.

Can`t take this. The pair of you in one evening. Where`s Jan. I`m on the wrong board aren`t I !?!

But I'm quite confident that it's the right appointment.

We are honoured and priveledged.

More than happy with that!
