dillo_dillo Posted December 24, 2008 Author Posted December 24, 2008 day after tomorrow, I'll be interviewed on the television. (before tape a TV show at studio ... It'll be in January.) And now, I got a questionnaire before the interview. It's really tough question for me. How do you answer if you got it? Q1: What is it about your support club(means Rovers) that attracts you to ? What's Rovers claim to fame? Q2: Do you have a game that personal feeling(have a special fondness for)? * limited "League games" * Q3: Why(which part is) Premier League is ACE than other (countries) league? Q4: Your most favorite player ( each FW/ MF/ DF/ GK) in Premier League 08/09 season ? ------I'm glad if answer it with Japanese fans (and non-English football fans / non- British people ) in mind? .... now I'm struggling with it..... Ahhhhhhh Grrrrrrrrrr.........*headache*

Ahhhhhhh Grrrrrrrrrr.........*headache* Hope you enjoy the experience. These would be my answers: Q1:Just be honest,what was the first thing that attracted you to Rovers? Was it the strip (which is very unique especially in English football) Did Rovers catch your eye when we won the league? The second part of the Question: Rovers are the only English team to win the world famous F.A cup 3 times in succession.Also we are one of the founders of the football league and Rovers are one of only 4 teams to win the Premier League. Q2:Maybe the first time you saw Rovers `live` was special for you? Q3:For me the history and competitiveness of the Premier League is special,there are so many teams with great history and any team can beat one of the top teams on their day.Also the passion of the supporters,i believe,is amongst the best in the world. Q4:Good luck with that one! There hasn`t been much of a choice! I was interviewed for a local tv news programme last season and thoroughly enjoyed the attention i got for a couple of weeks after! The interviewer tried to get me to say things that i didn`t want to,but i stuck to my guns and said what i thought was right.Don`t be put off by this though as i am pretty sure in Japan the interviewer will be more polite than they are in England.Please let us know how you have gone on and i hope you enjoy yourself. Merry Christmas and Best wishes for the New Year. Bill
Mc Love Posted December 24, 2008 Posted December 24, 2008 Dillo you will do the club proud mate! Hope it goes well for you
gumboots Posted December 24, 2008 Posted December 24, 2008 Saw her on the show Gumboots hubba hubba I also saw Roversmum and her fella when they showed highlights of the match yes I spotted them too.
colin Posted December 25, 2008 Posted December 25, 2008 Dillo, read "Four Lane Blues'" history of Blackburn Rovers here Then go on and tell them that you support a club that you have seen. You'll do just fine
Tim Southampton Rover Posted December 26, 2008 Posted December 26, 2008 Are Blackburn still the only team to have won a major domestic trophy in each of the last 3 centuries? FA Cup winners - 19th Century League winners - 20th Century League Cup winners - 21st Century I don't believe Man Utd, Liverpool, Chelsea, Aston Villa or Arsenal have achieved that. That would impress any football geek out there!
dillo_dillo Posted December 26, 2008 Author Posted December 26, 2008 90 min. TV show, but Rovers (me) doesn't have enough time to speak about. 'cause the show gathered 30 fans ... Of the total Manure 4, Ascum 4, Chelski 4, Scouser 4 ... ( and Spuds, Citeh, Barcords, Fulham) . I guess, the show on the air One or Two Rovers game scenes... I 'd like to choice enchanted...means most impactful scene of Rovers game to Japanese football fans ( not yet Rovers fan) Do you mind helping me? If you the only choices you had which scene on which game?? *choice the scene from League games! NHK doesn't have permission League-cup,Uefa-cup, FA-cup*
Tim Southampton Rover Posted December 26, 2008 Posted December 26, 2008 Andy Todd kicking Dugarry up the arse! Pedersen vs Fulham a few years back - Excellent build up, great cross to Pedersen who smashes onto the bar and into the net. Any Tugay goal!
MCMC1875 Posted December 26, 2008 Posted December 26, 2008 Garner's 5 v Derby, 3 v City or any v Burnley. Speedie's 3 v Newcastle.

dillo_dillo Posted January 1, 2009 Author Posted January 1, 2009 From what I've read ..... I vaguely remember it .... Rovers is the most smallest home town(small population) in an European top league(*). Does anyone know is this correct data? (*) England, Italy, Spain... and I don't know ... Netherlands, Portugal... include?

Does anyone know is this correct data? (*) England, Italy, Spain... and I don't know ... Netherlands, Portugal... include? In England but definitely not in Europe. Hoffenheim in Germany has a population of about 5,000.
Majiball Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 In England but definitely not in Europe. Hoffenheim in Germany has a population of about 5,000. And what a footballing story they are, great to see them flying high.
dillo_dillo Posted January 1, 2009 Author Posted January 1, 2009 In England but definitely not in Europe. Hoffenheim in Germany has a population of about 5,000. Oh, Thanks! I forgot about German League! :-p Rovers is 2nd small home town in Europien League? ----- Hoffenheim is promoted this season.... They played long time in lower league. I think they have no title. I had a meeting with Tv directores last Sat. I told about what kind of town Blackburn is and showed my photos to them. Their were filled with wonder "Whatta small town Blackburn is!!"
Tim Southampton Rover Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 They're building a 30,000 capacity stadium and their population is around 5,000 people. Crazy! I hope it works out for them otherwise it will be like Queens Park FC playing at Hampden Park where they have approx 450 fans watching their games at the 52,000 seater arena
philipl Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 Not 2nd- Monaco is smaller (but a bit richer) and Auxerre in France is only 29,000 people. Empolli in Italy is 55,000 and Villarreal in Spain is about the same.

bennyboyt11 Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 I was on TV when I went to see Ready Steady Cook live... only in the audience mind but I definately had some screen time

Majiball Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 THANKS!! I think ... Monaco, Auxerre, Empolli, Villarreal has no top league title ( and Europien title). right? Monaco and Auxerre have both won the ligue 1 Empoli - no nothing ever Villareal, well they are another footballing wonder absolute footballing no-bodies before the 90's. Been in la liga for 8 years and challenging for 3-4 seasons now. champions league semi's in their first ever season in the competition, legends. Indeed it is Football focus visited them, its worth a watch: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/7768679.stm Nice one I'll watch that later.
dillo_dillo Posted January 2, 2009 Author Posted January 2, 2009 I'm checking games I have for most impactful scene of Rovers game... this season 08/09 is ... unnecessary step to take ... all games are scums. 07/08 is same as 08/09. It's a really deadly dull season for me.... *to be continued later......
Ninjathunder Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 I was interviewed on Sky Sports News regarding Lucas Neil's future the day after he scored in a European game. Was just popping into the shop and got asked if I was a Rovers fan and before I knew what was happening I had a camera in my face and was being asked about the fans' treatment of him. It was only at this point that extreme nerves set in and I bumbled my way through a few questions. However, when I saw it on TV in the evening I actually came over OK, at least compared to the other two who were interviewed who appeared to have both had their brains erased by mind rubbers.
Billy Castell Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 That's what I fear if I was one of those people 'outside the ground'. I'd feel a right tool if I was seen to be mumbling some nonsense like someone suffering from shellshock after returning from The Somme. My sister has been on 606 once or twice, and Radio talking about the V festival.
