  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Superb

  7. Tell you what Silas, tremendous professionalism on the part of the Saints player to not react.
  8. 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.
  9. David Soul - Silver Lady
  10. 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.
  11. City cup tie ticket pics, I’m sure you’ve seen them darren, but they’re fantastic.
  12. 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?
  13. 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!

  15. @tomphil Dereck Chisora - no chance But it’s Saturday night boxing, I’ve got to watch it.

  23. Once we get out of this bleedin pandemic, you could always slip something into his tea True story, I worked in burnley for a number of years during the 2000's, needs must and all that - My dad didn't speak to me properly for months after I told him, he thought it was a betray of some kind. I'm sure most people wouldn't be able to comprehend that now, but those Bangor Street lads took the burnley rivalry very seriously and still do!
