BRFC - The Nostalgia Thread
47er replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I had my Rovers video tapes converted to DVD. But since Venkys turned up I haven't had the heart to watch them. -
I'm already off it. Used to watch every game on tele that I could get my hands on. Now watch highlights of Premier League but not always even them. Rarely watch England except in World Cup. Sole interest is Rovers really.

Is a attempt by the American owners of 2 big clubs to take even more money and power for themselves. Its not in the tradition of the English game because they are not English and have no interest in our 150 year old traditions.
-
It is, as someone else suggested an attempt by the big clubs to get what they always wanted under the smokescreen of the Coronavirus pandemic. Utterly shameless. This wouldn't be the end of it. They have further schemes in hand, hence the attempt to rig voting.

Attempt at Reorganisation of Premier League by Manure and Liverpool! Just heard a snippet on Sky News. They want EPL to be reduced to 18 clubs-----2 relegated, playoff for 3rd place involving 16th Premier League team. League Cup to be abolished. More voting power to go to "Top Six" Need 14 club's support to get it through.

It happened! Game was held up while they cleared the glass from the goal-line. -

By the way, I believe there is a book coming out for Christmas which is a history of Rover-Burnley rivalry. You might want to put some pennies away! Its called "No,Nay,Never"! I'm not the author by the way!) -

Ha! Remember that like yesterday. Duggie was injured and the papers were saying we didn't stand a chance without him. They were magnificent times for a Rovers supporter! -

Anyone else at Burnley when a Rovers fan threw a bottle at the Burnley goal? It hit the crossbar and shattered all over Adam Blacklaw, who, of course , joined us a year or two later. It was an early season night game, warm and sunny. No idea what the score was. The lad who threw it was just behind me and I was terrified the police would randomly grab me! -

And, if the toss meant that that was our defensive end, the fans would cross over right away as the game kicked off! Then back again at halftime! -

Rarely trouble Den! I remember a game v Liverpool and there was quite a bit of it! Exactly halfway across the Riverside where they met us! -
Maybe my memory is going but I thought they did.
-
Fingers crossed!

The State of Ewood Park!

Its an insult to Jack's memory. -
A bargain that.
-
Good coming forward, runs with the ball at pace. I think his crossing has improved in the few game of this season. He's young, should be the back-up while we "bring him on". If he doesn't develop enough, well he didn't cost much in the first place.
-
Massive loans. £8 billion?
-
It would be a tragedy if we had a decent go at getting promoted, only for it to wither away because we just didn't have enough depth in the squad for a whole season.
-
Once back in midfield he did a sterling job at Stoke and greatly prolonged his career till he sadly broke his leg. But what I said about him at Blackburn is true.
-
Dobing had the talent but not the heart. I've seen him walk off a muddy Ewood without a mark on his kit while everyone else was covered in it! He'd be jeered off at halftime as he entered the tunnel. Seen that more than once. Was mercurially brilliant though.
-
I'd have him but for the injuries. However some Premier League club will end up with him, He'd be on over £100000 a week so way over our budget.
-
Vernon in a different league to Dobing.

Could learn off Mulgrew?
