Hi everyone, having a clearout of all my blackburn shirts from 1994 to the present day - check out my profile on:

Ebay

I think the progress being made at the club is very commendable. With 3 quality strikers over the last 3 seasons, plus

2006-2007 10 Blackburn Rovers 38 9 3 7 31 25 6 4 9 21 29 -2 52

2007-2008 7 Blackburn Rovers 37 8 7 4 26 19 7 6 5 23 25 5 58

With a potential top 6 finish (fingers crossed), a 60 point finish is very good i think. If we can keep hold of our quality players and strengthen with some more gems in the summer then the future at rovers looks very promising

Bentley and Derbyshire also been called up for the under 21 champs team this summer

Wouldn't touch Championship Manager at all. Haven't bothered to look at any reviews but some of the screenshots look like they have tried to copy from some of the features that FM have in place.

Not strictly true on the price, the cheapest I have seen CM is £17.95. I have managed to pre order Football Manager for £17.89.

Where have u pre-ordered if from cookiemonster

found just now for 19.99?

As the title suggests football manager in my opinion has been the better out of the 2 games but has anyone seen any reviews to suggest otherwise with the 2 new formats. I realised that FM is not out until the 20th. i've also seen generally that CM is cheaper - maybe because its not as good.

If any of you are betting men! Benni McCarthy is currently 66-1 on bluesq for top premiership goalscorer. surely must be worth a tenner. I did

Has to be Reidys against wigan although there are some memorable ones there. Any Videos/links just for old times sakes??

CAN YOU NAME THE FOUR UNCAPPED ENGLISHMEN WHO HAVE MOVED FOR OVER £7 MILLION (IN ONE DEAL)? (taken from skysports)

2-1 to the spuds (defoe 2 - savage)

anyone know any live feeds for the game?

Same team as the other day for us, hopefully they'll be a bit better today than they were on saturday.

has that been confirmed yet?

I promise I was only drinking coffee but I'm sure in the second half I saw Matteo caught out going forward, somebody losing the ball and then MATTEO OUTPACING THE PALACE PLAYER!

no your eyes were not deceiving you, Matteo did go past a player with his pace and cross the ball in. amazing!!

Think it will be 1-0 to us with a dickov late goal. not a pretty or entertaining game but 3 points which is the most important thing.

The People

This article is the most amount of drivvle i have ever seen.

listening to radio lancashire on saturday afternoon and ticket sales were at 16,500 and hopefully with that good result on saturday we can make 20,000. optimistic i know but here's hoping

Excellent report on Mark HughesTelegraph

Think a 1-1 draw on saturday with Reyes and Reid scoring

Any idea if the game is being broadcast online...at work at the moment and I can't log onto chat!

try five live

im feeling slightly confident about this one although i am unsure why. i think 1-0 to blackburn with horatio getting his first goal for the club

please peeps, just woke up after nights and I read on this thread that some readers/members think that de vries is a good player !

FFS he is the biggest donkey to ever set foot on Ewood's lush green turf.

For someone who is 6ft plus, large build allegedly got a bit of pace about him and you have Leicesters new image of heskey.

The man was and is a useless pile of poo, all he relied on was fouling the defenders.

please dont make me laugh so much in the morning, it hurts

have you seen jay bothryoyd play?

on the subject of loans, has anyone seen how Michael Gray is playing at leeds so far?

Good luck to them at Gilly, not the best team in the championship but they have aquired two good players for the rest of the season
