Yes an old picture of Spotland, good effort.

@Tyrone Shoelaces or anyone for that matter, name this ground:

FA Cup round 3 results January 1975. Decent crowd at Ewood I noticed:

If we got lucky, they’d find a way to balls it up, it’s pointless, history tells us that.

Fair play here, we are battling back, they’ve not given up.

Gestede thinks this a competitive squad!!

Beautiful ball by Cantwell.

First time Charlton have score more than 1 goal in 17 games.

Just called off the Hull v Watford game at 2.35pm - 180 mile trip back home for the Watford fans........

Absolutely pointless sacking him Tom, its rinse and repeat if we do.....Takes the heat of the 2 clowns in the stands.

Watching the Celtic fans giving it to the board in the ground yesterday, I'm very surprised our lot get such an easy ride in JW Upper. You can voice an opinion without being thrown out and banned, far to easy for Pasha & Gestede right now.

Pears should never have been put in that position in the first place, he clearly thought the attacker was going for the far post and couldn't adjust, but it wasn't as bad as everyone is making out. He made a couple of saves that kept things at 0-2 and us in the game, they seem to have gone unnoticed. I'd not be dropping Pears based on recent performances.

This lad has singlehandedly brought darts to a younger generation, the sport is booming. This had now dominates the sport through graft and hard work, what’s not to like?

I’ve not watched loads of the darts, but every time I’ve tuned in, Keir Starmer is a wanker……

Absolutely, they hammered us earlier in the season, why would anyone think this is a pushover 🤪

It doesn’t seem that long ago we had times like this in the pubs and clubs around the town. Never lose hope, our time will come again.

It just got a little more interesting. No idea what Rohl said at H/T but it worked. Celtic fans protesting outside the ground right now, I think the problems at both clubs are bigger than the managers.

That is maybe how you view things wilsdenrover, but this club was formed in 1875, not 2011, we have well over 100yrs of history in the bank before this shower came along, don't surrender any of it is my view and certainly don't call someone a venky apologist for supporting Blackburn Rovers and going to games every week.

I don’t think it is frankly and calling a Rovers season ticket holder a ‘Venkys apologist’ isn’t helpful, but I’ve said my bit. VENKYS OUT - NOTHING ELSE MATTERS (To me)

Supporting the club unconditionally should never be seen as a negative den.

I really don’t think calling posters Venkys apologists is helpful. Once upon a time it was seen as a strength to support the club, whatever the situation and many still do adopt that approach and who are we to criticise them for it? The fans can’t influence the current situation, certainly 1 fan can’t, so supporting the club unconditionally, for some, is all they can do and they shouldn’t be lambasted for it in my opinion.

What could have been, the story goes that Bordeaux wanted to sell Zidane and Duggary as a pair and Zidane had his heart set on Turin, no idea why 🤣 So we ended up buying neither…

I don't recall Bowyer getting us promoted, but we did sign some useful players to go along side Rhodes 20+ goals that season, so that was a 'bust'. In the promotion season I don't recall who we signed, but nevertheless, the success rate in January is pretty thin on the ground and if the summer is anything to go by, we are more likely to sell rather than strengthen. I fall to see where the optimism is coming from chaddy, but I know we all hope your are right.

Do you recall a time, under Venkys, where the January window has produced the outcome you describe above?

Yet we are 20th and potentially going down chaddy. You, like every Rovers fan, must be worried, especially with our ability to recruit. The season gets tougher every Christmas when injuries hit and pitches get heavy, this season is no different and I can’t see a way out right now. One stroke of luck we have had though, is Sheff Weds points deduction, as that means they take up 1 spot, only 2 more are available, thankfully.
