  1. We had poor gates in the mid 80s… as did the whole Football League, the game was at its lowest ebb re status and attendances.
  2. Wrong code, he’d be Lord Sinfield of Saddleworth by now if he’d spent his career in Union.
  3. What money did the butchers, bakers and candlestick makers that owned Rovers in the 80s have to bankroll a team to promotion? They did the best they could to keep a competitive side at the top end of the second division. Indeed we were often the best performing side in old Lancs/north west outside Liverpool, Everton and Man Utd. Where were the likes of Bolton, PNE, Dingles in contrast? Some feat that, no comparison to those billionaires.
  4. Don’t feel sorry for me Chadster, nothing to be bitter and twisted about as I support the fantastic Blackburn Rovers, 6th generation. A sense of belonging with my fellow supporters. Something those glory hunters that pat you on the head in your little chats with will never understand.
  5. Wasn’t particularly a disagreement with you, I’m merely musing generally that we now need to give executives with made up titles ‘time’ these days as much as managers.
  6. The ‘Head of Football Operations’, whatever that means, needs a ‘few more windows’ Modern football ay
  7. I feel sorry for them more than anything. Especially young lads who miss out on so much, I.e. memories of great seasons, wins, away days with their mates watching Rovers or whoever because they are a ‘United fan’, often because his glory hunting dad says he’s one.
  8. Now that’s a 70s image.
  9. There are folk across the country that have great stories as to why they support who they do, all part of this wonderful game of ours. However, I doubt the vast majority of the *millions* of people across this country in Hemel Hempstead, in Guildford, in Darwen have much of one as to why they support Man Utd.
  10. Not a prediction if you have a set rule that says you won’t ever predict a defeat. Just a weekly ‘let’s hope we get a result’ post. Which is fair enough, but it’s meaningless as a prediction of how a game may go.
  11. Presumably they’ll be putting more on shortly, not just a hundred on the back six rows…
  12. The way it is these days on social media ‘POSITIVITY’ before any rational thought.
  13. A load of United games go to general sale these days (wonder why?), usually League Cup and Europa games - take it yer man down the pub in Accy will be straight in to buy one?
  14. So we weren’t being ‘OTT’ and ‘negative’, after all then, just ahead of the curve from the club, as we usually are on here…
  15. It was. Can’t think of any more round Blackburn. Had their bottled organic lager and oatmeal stout over Christmas. Cracking beers as their bottled stuff always is. Like I said, really weird set up, though I suppose it comes down from the top .
  16. Once again they get there in the end. Always a song and dance with this lot.
  17. Mattyblue’s Law on East Lancs Glory Hunters: Dickheads who should not be engaged in football chat.
  18. I’m taking about born and bred east Lancs folk as you know. Said persons wouldn’t dream of supporting Rovers, their local club as they are ‘shit’. Like I said such a person is a dickhead and to find said dickheads have a look in the pubs of the area on ‘Super Sundays’, they are full of them (and they largely ain’t folk that have just moved to Livesey or wherever from Newton Heath).
  19. If Chadster’s weekly predictions the last few years had come to pass we’d be Champions League winners by now…. Mark’s, we’d be in the National League.
  20. Someone from east Lancs that decides to support Man Utd or Liverpool is a dickhead, pure and simple.
  21. Man Utd and Liverpool are out on their own in this country when it comes to sheer numbers, there’s millions of them. They pollute every town, city and village, taking the piss out of proper football fans, letting many local club struggle for numbers. Why? Because they are far and away the most successful clubs in England, no great mystery to it.
  22. With a week to go we’d sell a good number more, especially if we win today. Get the netting removed and let’s sell that extra 600, the more Blues in the ground the better. No brainer.
  23. ‘FFS’? Bit rude, Chadster.
