  1. There are two reasons I don't subscribe anymore myself, IE and DRM.

    IE content means I can't use a decent browser, and DRM means I can't watch the videos my preferred way. Why would I want windows on my TV?

    If I could use opera, and watch the vids via xbmc I'd subscribe, as there was some quality stuff for members

  2. Think it through a bit Daje........ Dunne owed GS a debt of gratitude. Souness initially 'made' Dunny by putting him in the side

    That's true, I remember at the time I saluted GS for this, as I had hopes for Dunn as a future player after the Lillestrøm friendly in 99. First Rovers player I spoke to as well, he seemed a really nice lad at the time :)

    He even got number 8 after Kevin the Great!

    when Kidd showed no inclination to at all. So in fact it appears 2 managers saw flaws in Tyrone.

    Also true, although after Brian Kidds succesful destruction of Rovers, I put no trust in his judgement of players ;)

    There's probably more, but Jansen strikes me as the only good player he brought in. Gillespie too. Probably more as he had over a whole year to waste Jacks money, but Kidds preferred 11s during his time strikes me as the worst ever teams during my around 15 years as a Rovers supporter

    If my memory serves me right Dunn fell out with him cos Souness played him wide and Dunn wouldn't play there for his (favourite home town / supported as a kid / never ever want to play anywhere else) club and demanded to play in the middle.

    Your memory is probably better than mine as I can't remember why they fell out with each other, but I think you may be right.

    Still, I think this would probably not happen with another manager, as we all know GS made quite a habit of falling out with players. Giving Cole away for free after buying him for 7.5m (or so?) was the peak of his arrogancy with the players.

  3. Hello there!

    Hello ;)

    How does it feel being one of the four teams to have won the Prem?

    Nice to see someone else actually remembers ;)

    Although it's a long time ago, the memories are great.

    What do you think of Mark Hughes?

    A genius who will hopefully stay for a long time and continue his miracles. The better he does it, the sooner he'll replace Fergie though

    UEFA Cup – Heaven or Hell?

    Heaven! At last we actually get some points too

    Why has your season started so indifferently?

    Probably amongst other things due to the uefa cup, also the low standard of the refs haven't exactly helped us either.

    Then there's several injuries, but of course that's part of the game

    Who has performed above expectations for your team? And who not?

    Brett Emerton has become this seasons surprise hero, many wanted him out before the season, then he started playing as right back and is a completely different player. Hence Bert Mk2.

    Morten Gamst Pedersen on the other hand has not lived up to expectations this year. We've all seen he can do so much better.

    Why do you not sell out the ground?

    The population of Blackburn is extremely low compared to most other areas with PL teams, so there's not as many potential attenders. It is also because of overseas fans as myself who are selfish enough not to live close enough to the ground. Some people will blame Sky as well, but that doesn't make it different for Rovers than other clubs.

    What do you think of Reading?

    Actually I think it's great to see you up in the PL, and I hope you stay for a while.

    Score Prediction?

    2-1 Rovers. McCarthy and Bentley for us, you get awarded a penalty for Ooijer looking at one of your players

    Any finally - tell me some Interesting fact about your club?

    Although none of us except Jim was born at the time, we're proud to be the only existing club to have won the FA Cup three times in a row
