  1. The actions of those idiots in Pune have destroyed a once proud football club, destroyed families and local businesses and ensured the future of the football club will always be in doubt. I try not to hate, it’s wasted energy, but I reserve the right to hate the owners, Kean and the rest of the scumbags like Agnew that saw a few quid and pissed all over the club that Jack built. Bollox to welcoming them back
  2. Remember it well, great following by the Rovers fans on The Cuckoo Road End. I went the season before and we had around 100 there. Just watching the Barnsley game at home where Newell sat the Barnsley defence on its arse and slotted the ball home. I think for me that was the game where I thought we’re going up here, no problem. Then we had the struggles, but came out of the lull at Tranmere away? Wegerle pen? The rest is history.
  3. The boys from the black stuff - I can’t find words to describe it, fantastic doesn’t do it justice. Proper Tv, stories about real people that still resonate today.
  4. Transmission podcast, for all Joy Division and New Order fans: http://www.neworder.com/newordernow/2020/10/9/transmissions-the-definitive-story.html
  5. What a keeper he was As Sparks said earlier, it seems like all our childhood hero's/entertainers are dying (He wasn't my hero, Jim Arnold was in the Keeper stakes, but you get my drift) Its a clear sign I'm getting old, but I still think I'm 21.
  6. I missed Larissa and Krakow, went to all the rest, I think. I'd forgotten Salzburg, what a place that is! Savage free kick, Trapattoni and The Sound of Music We stayed in Salzburg before the England game in Germany when we beat them 5-1 - Another superb trip, this time watching the national side.
  7. Stays in Sofia... Strip club, dancing bears, Ewood blues suitcases full of soap, Secret police, Waggy (once of this parish) - Great trip darrenrover, it really was. But to be honest all the European away games were fantastic, I missed one or two towards the end and I'm gutted that I did. Lyon, Bulgaria, Germany a few times, but the best of the lot was probably Feyenoord, Amsterdam in the days leading up to the game was like nights out in Blackburn late 80's early 90's, the place was rocking with Rovers, I'm getting goose bumps just typing this.
  8. The football was a side show, the trip was brilliant, most Rovers fans stayed in a hotel with a strip club on the top floor, I never saw the Mrs for 3 days....... 2 of our party missed the flight home, got stopped from boarding because the plane was full, took them 2 days to get home. I could go on. Great times, they can't take away our memories.
  9. Superb

  11. R E S U L T
  12. Tell you what Silas, tremendous professionalism on the part of the Saints player to not react.
  13. I managed to square the circle when king rat was in charge, I wanted to lose games to get rid of the c***. But wanting to lose under Mowbray? A decent guy trying to move a basket case of a club forward? Have a word with yourself Mercer.
  14. David Soul - Silver Lady
  15. I love the pics of the 2 girls with the tickets, they look beside themselves, so happy. Says so much about the town and the people in that one photo. Jumpers for goalposts.
  16. City cup tie ticket pics, I’m sure you’ve seen them darren, but they’re fantastic.
  17. Still only 5 points of the playoffs, if he can sort of the defence we have a chance, but he needs to get a lick on. Could have been worse, we could spent £150 and travelled! Anyone seen Boris Johnson?
  18. I used to be amazed that by the time we get from the ground to the paper shop near The Aqueduct, The Pink had the results printed!
  19. Pulps Different Class was 25yrs old yesterday - seems like yesterday. https://www.thestar.co.uk/news/people/pulps-legendary-different-class-album-25-today-heres-story-behind-it-3019852
  20. @tomphil Dereck Chisora - no chance But it’s Saturday night boxing, I’ve got to watch it.
  21. Deep Purple - Johnny's Band
  22. Just hearing that Sean Connery has died, my favourite bond. Everyone's bloody dying
  23. Rovers v Barcelona 94/95 - Well worth a read, first printed in 4000 holes. http://roverschat.com/the-forgotten-friendly-rovers-reign-in-spain/
