  1. Makes you wonder why we bothered against Arsenal? Agent pep talk? "You're in the Prem shop window this weekend, my son"...
  2. Half an hour gone and the commentators are talking about us like it's the 88th minute.
  3. I hope Watford crash and burn I'm the play-offs. They've done us zero favours. What odds we'll be the only team down there that they beat?
  4. Just got back. What a great game. Quality, pace (pre-Dunn/Peds), passing - all the things we have been missing for most of the season. Garbage referee - I thought he had left his cards in the dressing room for most of the first half, and how he didn't see fit to give a free kick for the GBH on Best (waist height 'challenge') I'll never know - but it didn't matter. Hudds' Ben was right about one thing: the game was won in midfield, and our rag tag shower bossed it from start to finish. Jones was quality but Williamson was a star. He just pipped Givet to MoM in my eyes. Only players I wouldn't rave about were Lowe (I worried every time he had the ball) and Peds. His leggy shot towards the end from about 10 yards one-on-one was like a player who had given his all since the first whistle - and he'd only been on 10 mins! Him and Dunny made it a nervous last 15 mins as we started to make one or two mistakes and lost all of the pace and momentum. I guess we can put it down to experience since we got all three points. Special mention to Goodwillie would put in a very sensible night watchman role up with Rhodes at the end there. 1 point behind Bumley with a game in hand! Who'd have thought that 2 games ago (not me!) I even didn't mind listening to the thick-accent of the Blackburn lad who dialed in to radio rovers to wax lyrical about every kick having... wait for it... listened to 'full match commentary on Radio Rovers". Get yourself down to Ewood if it means that much to you!!
  5. I think PV followed the last post on the previous page. The thread has gone to pot anyway - people are regularly re-using the same word! Walk On The Wild Side - Lou Reed
  6. (Four lots of 'tears' in a row, you can tell it's a Rovers mb!) Out Of My Hands - Green River Ordinance
  7. Just think. We gave Huddersfield one years' parachutes payments. And we could still go down!
  8. Thanks for posting that SAS.
  9. Kelvin's son has been in touch. I hope people don't mind, or think it morbid, if I pass on the information... "My father was 66 years old and with no health problems, so it has come as a shock to us all. He took pride in giving me all the information from this site, and i didn't know if he spoke rubbish or not to you guys! He suffered a shock heart attack at 7am this morning and leaves behind his Loving wife of 28 years, and three children, 24,26 and 29 respectively. It would be nice if you did post something. Thank you for your kind words. Kind Regards Ben" From my point of view, "Kelbo" was one of the really good guys and his contributions - public and private - will be sorely missed. 66 is no age these days and my heart goes out to his wife and family. RIP mate.
  10. Maybe that's what attracted our very own Iron Lady to the club?
  11. If ever there was a clip to bring a tear to your eye...
