Jesus wept.... Did you support the club when king rat was here?

Pedantry in full swing as usual EA, the points still stand, Covid date changes not withstanding 👍

I think its fair to say that most posters on the site would be over the moon to see a managerial change. I've said on many occasions that as a club we aren't setup for promotion, far to many factors at play that make it almost impossible for us to progress, but thats just my opinion. I was looking at the managerial merry-go-round earlier and it makes interesting reading: Sheffield Wednesday and Bournemouth have changed managers twice this season. Udders, Derby, Boro, Brum, Reading, Barnsley, Forest, Watford and Cardiff have changed once. Looking at the list I would say only the change at Reading has made any significant difference, I'd also go as far as to say that they won't be in the Premiership next season either. Warnock has done well at Boro, but recent form has been awful, losing at home to us, Rotherham and Birmingham amongst others. Hughton at Forest has been poor, just above the relegation zone, some posters wanted him here. It doesn't prove anything, but I think it shows that most sides in the same bracket as us financially/looking for playoff spots have seen little or no improvement by changing the manager. A word for Gareth Ainsworth, who some tipped to replace Mowbray, 16 points from 26 games, awful return, no thanks.

India 76/4 chasing 578. I have to admit England have surprised me here, I didn’t give us a chance against a very good India side, especially at home.

Are you sure? Battered at home by Brentford, Rotherham, Blackburn Rovers and Birmingham in the last 4 home games? This site would have the pitch forks out if our record was similar. Thankfully we’re much better than that.

Promotion is the only thing that matters, do you think Boro are going up this season?

Could have been worse, did you see the Middlesbrough result....... Pitch forks are out.

This was the best kit for me, but the 68 kit looks great also.

I remember that like it was yesterday darrenrover.

On a QPR theme: Who remembers Tim Flowers debut at QPR in 93 I think it was? Just signed him from Southampton and we filled the place. I seem to recall us singing "Flowers in the rain" by The Move for large parts of the match, a few fans presented Flowers with bunches of flowers at the start of the match which we lost 0-1. They can't take our memories away.

First game 1975 - C H A M P I O N S 👍

Hope the fridge is full of cold Thai beer Asia 👍

I can 47er. The pitch is expected to deteriorate significantly, England would love to only have to bat once on this pitch, set a massive score to win the game, doesn't look likely now to be honest unless India capitulate.

Great target set by James Vince and Sydney Sixers 188/6 Over to you Liam Livingston.

I remember my dad telling me he took a big bottle of champagne to one game at the baseball ground, thousands of Rovers fans went. We lost, the champagne never got drunk, I'm certainly not an old chip off the block because I'd have demolished it before we got past Crewe! 1977 FA Cup seems a bit late to be sneaking bottles of champagne into the ground, but it looks like the only option.

We also played Hull City that season, but I don't remember it being built in a bowl.

It doesn't say sadly, but we did play at Carlisle that season, so you could be right

Last one for now - Anyone recognise the ground 1968?

I always liked this picture, Bobby Moore playing his last game at Ewood

Premiership parade?

Great photo

This is old but still has me laughing out loud. Kung Fu movie try outs - starts at 26 seconds 😂

I’ve watched the big bash religiously in recent years, but not seen a game this time around. I’ll try and catch the final and follow that up with some 6 nations rugby.
