Look mate, I have been a Rovers fan for 29 years and I make it to all the home games and lots of away games living in Sydney is no excuse not to have a season ticket you lightweight! The fact is if while we are in bad shape without a manager and your most important task is to pick people up on miss types your one sad individual!

dave birch - Come back when you pay £400 to see them every year! Idiot!

I am so sorry stick it pal!

Hughes! Sounds a million times better than Strachen and the French git!!!

Gutted! Thanks for leaving with our team in a such a poor shape you Scottish Bleep! No thanks to Strachan I would rather have anyone else ginger git! God I leave the country for two weeks and the club falls apart!

MGP - Didn't look as great a player as I had belived he would be I expected rightly or wrongly a full on left winger and was a little disapointed and yes before anyone starts lets give the kid a chance first game big move new team etc ........ but I just hope we have got this signing right.

Reid!!!! Will people stop thinking he is the answer to all our problems he is a nightmare. ... because my post really implies that. I'm saying that with a second right-sided player, the squad would not have its off-kilter and unbalanced look that it had on Saturday. And he's proven on the right is he??? First he could play on the left then at the back now right back/right wing well I have yet to see him in any position that he looks anywhere near Premiership class, he looks out of place everywhere...sell him ASAP!

Well I was very disappointed with the performance on Saturday Matteo was awful, it was Leeds United he played for and not Leeds Rhino’s??? He pulling at the shirts of any attacking player he could, he was also very slow (Not that I expected Carl Lewis). Emerton has not improved either his crossing or his shooting he should have had a goal but took two or three extra touches and lost it, his all round game was not great never seemed to get wide to receive the ball in the second half short gave him a blasting for it at one point did no good! De Pedro looked to be carrying some extra weight from the pics and video I have seen of him didn’t get into the pace of the game at all, one good cross. Big improvement needed smacks of carrying on from last season, I know the season is long but it will be even longer if we have to watch that rubbish all season!

Rovers 2 - 0 WBA Stead De Pedro

On the form Emo finished the season or rather lack of it, I would be more happy with: Thomo - Tugs/Flitty - Fergy - De Pedro Bring Emo on if required in the 2nd half. After his first few games he didn't push on and become the awsome player I think we had all hoped for, saying that I am not saying he won't ever become a great player!

Why do you think he wants to play against Man U ? Tromsø did a correct decision to reject the bid now. He will be sold later, to another club or to a higher bid. This is a great day for us Tromsø supporters. The management has gotten our respect with this decision. it tells us that they have ambitions with this team and that they are willing to listen to us and all the others that have had some views about this issue. - TROMSØ - until I die Good keep him from the reports from members off this board he is better off with you good luck no hard feelings.

27 and counting!

And what exactly is offensive about it? Do you know what it means? tiocfaidh ar la = our day will come Not allowed speak my language apparantly. I really hate all this crap about the connections words/songs are given. This only happens because we let it. Still wouldn't walk around Blackburn saying that. Teann ar la, or something would have been much more appropriate given last nights events. Police and stewards behaviour(especially stewards) not one bit surprised. They like to act all big and powerful and annoy decent fans, but if anyone starts any trouble they are too incompetent/scared s**tless to do anything. Fans without tickets getting in, fans with tickets locked out? Absolute gross incompetence, and I'm sorry Kamy but "they were good forgeries" is a @#/? poor excuse. Agree, the stewards in the Riverside are C**P they are no more than kids some of them and don't want to get involved if any trouble starts. One stood watching as a Celtic fan was given a beating in the lower rows, taken there number along with the turnstile attendant letting people in for fifty £. MAD!!

The Police didn't care they could have pulled the Darwen end down for all they bothered

I was in the CIS stand, complete madness on the way to the ground the Celtic fans kicked cars as they past, @#/? on anything they could complete thugs. Like others I witnessed people with no tickets trying to get in by paying at the turnstiles with Scottish £50 notes one bloke behind me got turned away by a steward but how many more got into the ground? After Celtic scored in the first half it became clear who the Celtic fans where and several fights broke out I had to go and tell a policeman to intervene something he said he didn’t want to do madness, the steward (a young girl) didn’t even move as Rovers fans pulled one bloke from his seat. After calming the situation down the policeman wanted to leave the Celtic fan in his seat (He had a Celtic shirt, hat and scarf on) in the end he was taken away more for his own safety, but he wasn’t the only drunk Scot pushing people about. The lad who ran across pitch at the end was taken down between the Blackburn end & the CIS stand I think he got a bit of a beating off a steward five Blackburn fans where telling a policewomen I didn’t get a good view when I was coming out but it looked that way certainly something had gone on after he was taken off the pitch anyone see??. In all a terrible night for the team and for the club why could the Celtic fans not be properly policed on the way to the ground how did they get as far as the turnstiles through the ticket checks? The steward who was at the top of my stand should be sacked and the policeman. Bitter at the result no they deserved it, bitter at watching kids getting pushed and spat at fights and crowd trouble YES! We paid good money to watch a football game not thugs and idiots.

Rovers 2 - 0 Celtic Cole Duff Early Cole goal then made to wait until 88th min for Duff to pop up and score Fingers crossed

First leg Celtic 2 - 2 Rovers Second leg Rovers 3 - 1 Celtic Come on the Rovers!

From one ST holder who didn’t get a ticket (I live near Leeds and didn’t get through on the phone), I hope all of you lucky people who have got tickets will cheer the blues on for the rest of us and have a great day out. I will be over in Blackburn watching in a pub somewhere fingers crossed, see you all for the home leg. :'>
