Irony Bob?? Yes. First time I heard that though was from a Dingle a few years ago just before we beat them 5-0. I laughed then as well. Just goes to show that all football fans pick up on something that's incredibly clever and funny all at the same time. Remind me please someone - Is Dunn definitely out of this game? If so why?

Wasn't he in The League of Gentlemen? "Hello Sam - you're my manager now". Maybe not.

"Deadwood Park" Brilliant! Not only incredibly funny but original as well. 2-1 Rovers. We sign off in style. Chelsea’s best striker, Fossil, opens the scoring on 21 mins with a right footed drive in off the post at the Blackburn End. Half time arrives and it's then that everyone notices that Jonathan Douglas and Damian Johnson had swapped shirts in the first half and had played for the wrong teams. Normal service is resumed and they swap back in the second half. No one notices. Steadinho breaks his goal drought on 70 mins - avoiding a crisis in confidence in doing so. A 30 yard volley in off the post. That's how things remain until the 94th minute when Rovers are awarded a penalty when "Tiny" Taylor brings Cole down in the area by throwing a chair at him. The referee really does have no option but consults his linesman first. Souness cracks up again and continues with his Basil Fawlty impressions from the Spurs game on the touchline. Meanwhile on the pitch no one has a clue what to do with a penalty. Enks comes to the rescue - he's read about these in a book or something and smashes the ball home in off the post. No pressure Enks - it's only worth a million quid that one.

Yeah I know. Let it go. It's happened. Enjoy it. We're stopping up, we've a cracking player up front in Stead, we've Gallagher coming through as well, we've just beaten Man Utd, those clowns down the M65 are in a right old mess, we're getting rid of some of the "dead wood" in the summer and may even get a couple of good players in, including a left winger. It's not easy for some of us I know, but just try being happy for a bit!

That's right Ste. He looked good enough for me and that's just from a two minute clip of his goals on Sky Sports. Sure, Souness should have given me a call to ask for a second opinion (we don't have wide screen) but ultimately it's all turned out nice in the end and every credit to him for that. There's plenty to criticise or argue about the man but the signing of Steadinho surely isn't an issue.

Oh you opened up a real cans of worms now! why's that!!?? Ben - if you bring that ruddy air horn and you're in front of me in the ground I can assure you that you won't be able to sit down anyway.

Kayos - thought you'd might like to change the first verse, how's about.. "We have something special, in fact its folklore We are not a joke you've heard of us before We have a club a wonderful thing We don't care what they do in training..." Just a thought.

I'm with Trooper on this one - they need to get Johnny Bond back to finish what he started. I think it's great news. I can't see who they're going to get in who will do as well as Stan. He's done very well with loan signings and no cash. Whoever it is they won't look as good in leggings. Oh well.

I've no idea either, I really haven't, and quite frankly I don't like where your coming from (fnarr fnarr) etc but let's just pretend it's ruddy pink instead of your standard blow up sword colour of metallic grey.

Is that an inflatable pink sword in your pocket.... (Can't believe you missed that one out Sox)

Reading the beggining of this thread i think its something to do with the stafford area. Im gonna ring them and try book onto that one from preston, should be ok. Right you are. Thought I'd missed something.

We're going Preston to Euston. 8.20 depart - arrive 11.59. But your "west coast line" thing has distrubed me. Do you know somehting I don't?

I went yesterday for beach balls and arm bands. You'll be laughing for arm bands but I couldn't find many beach balls, so I'd get a move on. There's an inflatable smiling Dwight Yorke in there as well - bit on the expensive side I thought.

I'll take a look at the weather forecast nearer the time Bryan. If it looks like flooding in London I'll buy some more armbands and drop them in at the Reptile House, they're a good set of lads in there. They'll probably be cheaper later in the week anyway (what with the influx of new Spall Sports sponsored Rovers armbands due for arrival any day now) they're looking to get shut of everything. Dwight Yorke was in Roverthemoon yesterday. £100,000 and a free Rovers keyring with a bottle opener built in. There were no takers. I mean who needs a bottle opener in a keyring unless you're going to drink and drive? No one in their right mind that's who. It could be a long summer for Dwight.

Today I have bought a pair of armbands (if there are floods in London I'm laughing) and three inflatable Rovers footballs. I'm still working on the Tron outfit.

Damn you BobF - better have mine on Saturday Nope, not me I'm pleased to announce - I've not been near Roverthemoon today. I don't think the idea of going in Roar masks is a very good one though. Kayos - you have a look of Roar anyway - don't think you need a mask, save your money. Inflatables it is then - elephants, trons, anything I suppose. I'm going on the train from Preston and by the sounds of things will be getting a taxi back to Blackburn when the return train terminates at Watford. Should be a quiet do.

But I won't be will I? SteB is going as "Effin Christmas in Florida" as well. I mean he hasn't said otherwise has he? Are you going? Fetch some camp Elephants if you are. I'll be carrying a U.S. Christmas Tree so I'll have my hands full.

Good spot Tris. It's gotta be the inflatable crest really hasn't it? Goes to show how much they make on them. £3.00 from a tenner? They're havin a laugh. Ste - I reckon we should all go as "Effin Christmas in Florida" (never liked the place - or been) - I'll get to work on this tonight. Don't let me down Ste - I'll look stupid going dressed up on me own and arguably a little bit camp. Good stuff though ain't it Damo? - hat's off to Gola / Slazenger / Nike / adidas / Uhlsport / Spall - whoever.

Yeah - whatever. Anyway if anyone sees a bloke in a Superstella Tron outfit at Spurs - it's not me. It's Superstella.

OK OK - the bouncy castle is a bad idea. There's bound to be some idiot who jumps off the top tier and ruins it for the rest of us. The inflatable balls from Roverthemoon would be a good idea - but they're three quid each! Reduced from £4.00 And that's in the 50% off sale. It's got to be the Superstella Tron outfit for me. I'm having that. Plus it'll hide my beer belly. That bloke, presumably not Superstella, looks really good in it.

Great idea Hughesy - nice one. I'm gonna try hiring one of those inflatable bouncy castle things. We can all get on it (after removing shoes of course) and start pelting the stewards with £2 coins! A real winner! They'll never stop us! Ha! Ha! HA! HA!

Great spot American. It was only a matter of time before something like this happened. My money is on the Gray Wolf in this instance - it looks a bit like an Alsatian and everyone know's that they're totally mental. The Cougar has a back side like Alan Shearer and while this would stand it in good stead if it was holding the ball up on the edge of the penalty area or backing into central defenders, the Wolf will ultimately kick it's hairy arse all the way back to Newcastle.

Bit unfair that Steve. Grabbi could sing a bit by all accounts. What date are Blue playing? I can arrange to be on the otherside of town.

Reminds me of... "King Kenny's Blue & White Army" Which sounded like... "Kinky Knees Blue & White Army" apparently - probably 'cause it does.
