[Archived] Liverpool v Blackburn Rovers

[Roost]

I haven't posted on here in about 2 years, just want to check i'm still a world cup.

poor old Roy, the writing was on the wall, Hodgson for England

I thought he would fall at the top, 6.4 million on Dailly, I will never get over that.

hopefully rovers win.

Damn you for reminding me about this!!

Rovers win for me. Playing as crap as we did at Stoke should be enough for three points (just kidding - we need a shot on goal)

£41 a ticket? On a Sunday? On Sky? In Liverpool? Should I, shouldnt I.........................................

[Amo]

I think you'll find we paid £5.3m for Dailly. £5.3m too much, but still.

World Cup 98', me and my dad slagged off a certain Scottish defender without mercy, he was bloody useless!

What was Woy, self styled most knowledgable man in football doing that summer?!

One month and one partnership with Darren Peacock later, we were doomed.

It's not on Sky.

[Ozz]

If we don't beat Sunderland on Monday week, it looks likely we will enter November with only two league wins under our belt.

[TAFKAP]

Versus Liverpool, I've a win-win situation. If they beat you, I'll be delirious, if you beat them, I'll be glad an ex LOVELY TEAM manager got beat.

Here's hoping for a 27 nil win for liverpool.

[Bobby G]

Might sound stupid but why arent WE playing next weekend?

[EnglishChris]

Because were playing on the Monday night against Sunderland it's on Sky Sports live

I can see where you are coming from, as LFC are the best supported club in 'Proud Preston', I thought you would have a soft spot for them.

[Bobby G]

Stupidly I looked at this thread and thought this was our next game especially after I didnt see us on Saturday or Sundays game!

[bazza]

Liverpool 0-3 Rovers.

You've had too many Castles to be posting that score.

[JC4LAB]

Might this be Hodgsons last game if we humiliate them?? Where will our goals come from though?...His pet player Christian Dailly is still playing at Charlton..

[m1st]

Masochist that it may make me seem, Liverpool [A] is one of the few away games I rarely miss, mainly because I used to work in the city 40+ years ago and, from those days, I still have Liverpool-supporting mates, with whom I always enjoy a pre-match pint but, more rarely, a post-match pint.

However;

I vividly remember being in a pub near the ground after Mike Newell's goal had won us three points there in 1993/94 and one of these mates was musing on what an unusual year 1993 was turning out to be: what with peace apparently breaking out in the Middle East; Rovers winning at Anfield; etc., etc. Oh that lovable Scouse sense of humour,eh? Laugh? I thought I'd never start!

So I reckon we're overdue for another worldwide peace initiative and three points for the Rovers from Anfield. Specially with:

1] their ownership struggle still [at the time of writing] dragging on [it must surely affect them];

2] Torres not firing on all cylinders; and

3] Kuyt being out; I know the commentators slate the Dutchman but I reckon he'd have been a thorn in our side.

So it's another 1-0 to Rovers for me; not bothered who scores it; not bothered how they score it - another Charlie Adam-type o.g. would be nice, though! Are you listening, Jamie Carragher?!

[USRoverME]

Will NESV have changed the club name to "Old England Red Stockings of Liverpool" by game time?

[Presty On Tour]

On the SSN interview with Henry, he said he will make his first appearance as owner at home against us.

So that's us screwed then!

[Grabbi Graeme]

New Liverpool owner John W Henry has said he will be attending the game.

[Mattyblue]

Had to be us that rocks up for LFC's new dawn (well since the last one).

Cue Rovers headlines 'we'll be the party poopers', 'my players thrive on these big occasions'

followed by us getting hammered.

Has to happen, doesn't it!

followed by us getting hammered.

I know the supporters will be drinking heavily, but what about the score?

[philipl]

Depending on whether Sam sends out our second half team or our first half team, we are either going to roll over and get hammered or be John Henry's worst nightmare first opponent.

This has got to be an absolute banker for a HT away win, FT home win/result bet.

[SouthAussieRover]

That's it then.

I'm putting $5 on a 2-1 win for us.

[Blue n White Rover]

Philipl, Do you still seriously believe we could have bought Xabi Alonso back then?

[Finch]

This is our best chance to beat Liverpool away.

But history has shown us that if there is a team that is having a torrid time in the league, then we are typically the team which gives them their first win.

Still ... if we can't do it here then we will never do it, so I'm going with the optimistic result.

2-1 Rovers

Indeed, great timing!

[Tom]

Just said in the other thread they look so bad but it's so painfully obvous when the turnaround is going to happen

4-0 I fear
