More importantly, how good are their pies? They've got to be better than the cr@p they serve at Ewood right, after all that's their namesake - it's what the place is famous for

Oh don't worry, I will be at the ticket office first thing in the morning. That's an absolute disgrace and the club should be ashamed of itself. If you can't spare 5,000 pies to fellow Lancastrians well it makes you wonder just what the world is coming to

Getting the 10:15 from Blackburn and gets into Wigan just before 11 so I''ll give you a bell Mark and let you know which alehouse we're in.

Is there a designated away pub (Official or Unofficial)? If so how close to the ground is it?

Am really looking forward to this, Rovers might just sneak it. Last time I was there League Cup quater finals the atmosphere was fantastic. All the signs are looking good, a rest after the Sunderland cancellation, Bellamy back from injury, Pederson rested and ready to go, Lawro predicting a loss, how can we loose?

Really fancy Bellamy's pace against the Wigan centre backs, Henchoz and De Zuew (sp) aren't the quickest in the prem. Mind you we'll have to keep it tight at the back as their forwards are pretty speedy too.

2-1 Rovers Pederson and Bellamy.

If you have as much money as Whelan and claim to support Blackburn Rovers then you would expect some of that to be spared as well.

Shame Whelan isn't going to be there today. Would have been great if Rovers fans booed him. Shame he broke his leg in the final isn't it? Might not have had premature retirement and started his business so it probably worked out better for him.

[RevidgeBlue]

Tough game, Wigan on a right roll, but I refuse to believe they're significantly better than us if at all.

Entertaining 2-2 draw.

[Guest Vinjay]

My prediction. Judging by how inconsistent Blackburn have been this season I really don't know what to expect.

Why would we do that??

Sky spoke to him before the match at Old Trafford a couple of weeks ago. Said that he supported Blackburn. Well if he does perhaps he could bail the club out of the sorry situation we find ourselves in.

[AlanK]

So we should boo him because he broke his leg while playing for us and states he stills supports us?

You really are a ####.

Have a ###### new year you (Please don't use that word again)

Come on rovers

He dosen't support us. Can't believe he even had the nerve to make such a comment.

Sorry situation? Since when has being 11th in the Premiership been a sorry situation? A couple more wins, one of which could be our game in hand, and we could find ourselves around 8th spot, is that really a sorry situation? We would be the envy of most teams and can consider ourselves very lucky to be sound financially and also have a nice secure position in the league. It would be great if someone injected money into the club so that we could bring in one or two players but you can't slate someone because they don't. It is his money, let him do with it what he wishes.

It's a sorry situation when people made promises that Blackburn would always be pushing for honours as well as self supporting. I've got several quotes I could post here if allowed.

[Nayef]

Wigan 0 Blackburn 1

Am not one for predicting positive results when all the evidence points to the contrary but there you go.
