when kenny dalglish took over rovers, what did he do? immediately he started bringing back fans favourites etc etc. chris price, colin hendry to name but a few. dunny coming home in a sense means more than them two blokes coming back because he is a blackburn lad through and through. blackburn rovers are the club that dunny wants to play for more than anyother in the country!

as i am yet to recieve acknowledgement of my birsa messageboard registration being approved...i will post on here . what i would like to be brought up at a future meeting with the club, is when are we gonna see the younger/youth players being given a chanceat first team level? what is wrong with sticking one of them on the bench and giving them a few minutes experiance towards the end of a game....if we are in a position to have that luxury. we see far far too many young kids being lauded and and put on a pedestal by the club, but never being given a chance at senior level.

i agree dave. there aren't any real groups of death but there are gonna be some cracking games. this is looking like a really good world cup. i am happy enough with our group, although we should win it and go through as winners to play poland in second phase, sweden will once again be a tough game.

i think we can and should win this game, no matter what score it ends up. rovers v west ham - foxsports 1pm sunday afternoon, full replay.

i think it would be even better than the big fella coming back. main reason is cause dunny is one of our own, born and bred. dunny contributed to his own departure from ewood park but that is in the past and it seems like he has turned over a new leaf....having a home grown boy, come home would be fantastic!

at 0-1 and 11 men still on the park for us, i was quite confident that we could get back into the game, but a non-sensicle sending off and to compound that conceding another goal afterwards made it extremely difficult for us. not neccasarily mark halsey but more so a REF has again come up with a desicion that has ultimately had an effect on the game....a decision that was wrong!

boro away for next round! bugger, was hoping for a home draw, but never mind. we can still do it!

is there a link to the live draw for the quarter final of league cup??

a very tough game for the boys in blue, this weekend. a simliar result to waht happened at the theatre of crap, would be very nice. in saying that though a similar result to the one against man citeh would be very exceptable. i think we will have to play very well to get anything from the game! "COME ON YOU BLUES"

that is exactly the first thing that i thought too, when i saw this thread. or then again keane to rovers until the end of the season, then we can make a propper bid for petrov...

amo is out of contract at season's end anyway i think so even if no-one comes in for him, this will be his last season at rovers anyway. he might hve been a very ordinary footballer, but at the time he gave us toughness that we did not have. now, we have the toughness as well as centre halfs who can play football aswell.

I am looking forward to the aftermath for want of a better description, of the first meeting with the club and the items that will be on the agenda. no doubt the ticket prices thing will be on there aswell. certain sections of our fan base have long criticised the club for their pricing of matches...however when the club appear to be getting this right, with argueably some of the cheapest tickets in the country, the attendances are going backwards. now that this subject has been dealt with (by the club in my eyes) the excuse now is that the team are playing crap football or that it aint good enough to spend hard earned cash on. as it appears now, this also seems to be being dealt with.....so what now is the excuse of the fans? good football being played by the lads, some cheap prices and good entertainment - there is now no excuse, based on the past gripes of fans. with this in mind, i am hoping that the club express their own dissapointment towards the fans. as a whole, the club are giving the fans what they have wanted for the past few seasons...so why still no increase in attendances!!

that does sound very odd clare. something that i find rather confusing aswell is that why are we playing an international game when we are gaurenteed a spot at the world cup? albeit this is a friendly but the players need a arest every now and again. i don't think it would hurt to have a 2 week break every now and again just so the players can have a rest.

ray clemence could not have been more complimentary if he tried, regarding our performace this morning. "blackburn are a joy/pleasure to watch" "the football that blackburn are palying is first class" was also another of his comments.....my reply to him on that one was it is a shame that at least 10,000 more rovers fans disagree with him. he also said "if this was chelsea playing this kinda football, we would all be wowing and marvelling at them". we have played some outstanding football this season and the players are giving the fans what they have been whinging about for a long time...some quality football to watch. my own opinion is that those so-called fans who slag them off when the going is bad will not be heard from until if and when rovers go through another bad spell....that really chaps my arce! just over 17,500 for a premier league attendance is disgusting!

2 year contract offer for him?? anyone?? he might be 33 years old but would sit perfectly infront of the defence!!

i am quite happy with the performance, just the result was a bummer. the ref changed the course and/or direction of the game...by being totally over officous and favouring the home team as spacks quite rightly put it.

the above was off topic i know....sorry mods

never mind all this ###### ###### about educating us white folk about excepting asian people into our society and football ground, because by the above statement it is not us who does not want to intigrate into their society, it is they who are not interested.....so i go back to a thread that was quite a while ago now - the FA,Government and whoever else is involved with this 'kick racism out of football'......take your advertisements at our grounds, in the newspapers, on television and on radio and go and shove them down the throats of anybody who is not a white fella, because that is exactly waht you are doing to the average white man/woman/child. i bet they don't have adverts up in mosques around the uk? i bet they don't have these adds in the asian newspapers and on asian radio or television. i would like somebody to prove me wrong on this so i can hold my hand up..and say "i was wrong"....but if this is not the case then those folk who are running this campaign can go and shove it where the sun don't shine. jal - i am generalising and not a direct responce of your post

this may already have been answered somewhere, but when is the draw for the next round?? not bothered who we get as long as we are home.

undoubtedly at the seasons end there will be players that are sold or realeased.......and depending on how much money the boss has to play with and also dpending on how much progress the club is making, then i can't see why we can't put in a bid for dunny....cause hell knows he would love to come home and play for rovers again. apart from him, bentley is a central midfielder and lets not get on his case for his quiet performances as he aint a right midfielders asshole.

greggy...have you been forward in time and read that almunac that belong to marty mcfly??.....chuffin eck get your self down to the bookies and some money put on it.

I thought we, on the whole thoroughly desreved the victory. we was lucky with the penalty but the second goal was a good finish and showed the difference in class between bellamy and dickov...class i mean as in the ability to know what to do when presented with such a great chance. well done lads!!

i am currently listening to radio rovers and mike graham was on there...(which board member is he, if any). he said quote "we want to look at ticket prices".....my immediate reaction is how much more do this club have to do in terms of trying to get really competitive prices to get more fans into ewood park on a match day.....i am totally bewildered by the comment by this chap that suggests the fans are still not happy with the current prices...and lets bare this in mind folks, we are one of the cheapest teams in the country to go and see play premiership football. it is (in my mind) ###### ludicrous that some areas of our support are still complaining about the prices of the tickets. what is going on!!!!

this is a game that i am confident we can win...i think we was very unlucky to get nothing t anfield last week...but in saying that we must not take this for granted...3 points lads, come on!!!!

i am inclined to agree with phillipl....if there is nothing too it then his name don't get leaked and the police do not arrest after all this time. for his own sake i hope charges are dropped and proven unfounded...but if it is true then it is his own fault and that will ultimately be the end of his career.
