Really looking forward to seeing Riquelme in action against Rovers!!!

One of my favorite players ever, so much talent and technical ability. Who knows maybe a good performance or two and he could be a Rover (I can dream). Such a pity he won't be at the world cup, I can only assume the string that used to keep the ball at the mans feet snapped, different gravy.

wow this is incredibly frustrating from my part, although fantastic news for Australian Blackburn fans.

the one time where blackburn will be in australia, i will be in the UK.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

You Aussie Rovers have NO excuse now......Blackburn expects everyone of you to do your duty!!!!

are Ewood Blues running a bus for this one?

Seriously though is anyone thinking of going down under for a week or so?

We'd certainly have looked into going over, but have just booked elsewhere

Gutted really.

Waiting for confirmation is very good advice. There are a few people I know who bought flights to Madeira this time last year.

[london-rover]

yeh i know a couple that booked up for madeira.

Hush hush news

expect Rovers to confirm a Tuesday evening kick off 730pm versus PNE mid July on Monday (if they are still in business that is).

[DazRover]

I know this isn't really on topic, but does anyone know the line ups for both teams when Rovers played Barcelona in a preseason friendly in 2001?

Nice!!

I remember going to Deepdale for Roque's first game, was on a Saturday and the ground was full (well all three sides)

The ground was nigh on empty, the attendance was about 8000, with 3000+ Rovers fans enjoying the sun!

I went to that game, we took about 5000 fans filled behind one of the goals. Would think about going again if this is true but prob not with it being a midweek game

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Rovers fans nearly filled that stand behind the goal at Deepdale,nearer to 5,000 travelled that day!

Same again please to see Guti!

[roversmum]

Thoroughly enjoyed that game. Decent elevated area for disabled fans, too. Hoping this rumour is true.

[Ozz]

We had two thirds of the away end, PNE filled about half of one side.

An inebriated interloper was ejected from our end.

[Ste B]

Sturm Graz away 10th July.

WC Final day after.

[4ever&ever]

Sky sports news confirmed Preston game as 20th of July away.

Nice of us to do a charity game for them like we did with Stanley lol, does anyone know the last time we were beaten by Preston BTW?
