We have some old videos that we are giving away, be good if they could stay in Rover hands. Let me know if anyone's interested and I'll ask my dad to send them on. He's having a clear out.

BRFCS TV - Nostalgia Thread

I remember seeing some kind of comic strip on twitter of dougie ripping united apart. Havent been able to find it since, anyone have any ideas? -
Totally agree! It's definitely an opportunity missed by the parents that don't speak to the kids in their own language.

Maybe not the same level as the championship, but not particularly poor, come on! A tutor isn't the same as living and being immersed in the country. I hope he can kick on at Villarreal all the same.

I don't know if this is me reading into it, but isn't he interested in properly learning Spanish, with his mum and Chile, etc? Maybe, if he does slip down a division, it could still be in Spain.

A random one here, so please excuse me for going slightly off topic. Me and my son went to the Betis Burnley game yesterday played at Huelva Recreativo's ground. We live in Seville and are Betis fans. The family are all Rovers for generations. Decided not to wear any Rovers gear, 'cause I don't like causing a scene. Anyway, good game for a preseason turn out, including a goal for Betis from inside their own half that went off the bar and then bounced back off the Burnley keeper's head and in. Lovely stuff!

I wonder if he was even as "prolific" as Andy Kennedy? 🤭
-
There's loads of other great sport to watch instead. I'll probably end up taking in a few games, but won't sweat it if I miss anything. All this nationalism makes me switch off.

Rovers finished 4th in 92/93 and missed out on a EUFA Cup spot, I'm pretty sure the next season that was enough for Europe. Villa? Newcastle? Liverpool? I can't remember who it would have been.

The review/coverage videos of 92/93 are so good right now. Such a magical time, seeing it all again is really helping me get through this time. Thanks!

Cringiest moments in Rovers history?

Roy Keane, i think with him Rovers could have maybe won a few more titles, but who knows. It definitely stung though that one, I remember hearing on the radio that he was as good as signed... -

I'd love to see that. You could find someone to scan it for you, or just take a photo of it. -
Tony Gale or Kevin Moran out of retirement?

I'm not talking about what it said on the scarf, I'm talkig about my gran's reaction to it as regards to what she considered to be Lancashire. -

I remembered showing my grandma a rovers scarf which said 'The pride of Lancashire' in the mid 90s (she was in her 80s at the time) and she asked 'what about liverpool and united?'. I always went with her authority on this matter. She was rovers through and through btw. -
Tugay just got his own song
elwaxo replied to joey_big_nose's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Not bad, not amazing either. Tugay references are of course, by nature, class! -
Please excuse me not reading back through this whole thread. Are the games on ifollow only available to stream live or can you watch the game later?
-
I think they really are missing out on extra custom by not offering a shirt without sponsor, I for one don't buy shirts that I feel are ruined by a tacky sponsor. They could charge a little more and give the money to the sponsor if it would keep them happy. Love this new kit BTW! Smart collar!
