Wolves at home. McCarthy will be looking for revenge.

Let's hope we are not relying on the last match to keep us up. Chelsea away!

I don't intend to be negative. Just bringing Iceman back to earth.

Pretty kind set of fixtures really, not facing a run of really difficult fixtures until christmas. Like LeChuck said on the other fixture thread if Rovers are rock bottom in October after those set of fixtures Kean should in some serious trouble.

The final three games could be tricky if we need to put a run together to survive. Having to play Spurs away, derby game against Wigan and then going to Chelsea on the final day won't be easy, especially if clubs like Chelsea still have something to play for.

Ah damn... I'm going to be in Italy mid-November to mid-December and was considering making the trip to Blackburn for a game, but the only home games during that period are going to be Swansea and West Brom...

Even away the choices are Wigan, Stoke or Sunderland. The Bolton match at Ewood is 3 days after my flight leaves as well! Would have loved to make it to a derby game at Ewood.

Additional Note:

To secure a licence for this site to display the fixtures (just for Rover's fixtures) would cost £662+VAT, money we'd much rather spend on a new server.

We therefore must insist that once the fixtures are released they are NOT copied onto the site.

Please discuss them, but do NOT under any circumstances cut and past the full list onto here.

Bleedin' Nora! How long before we have to pay to say "Blackburn Rovers"? Or any other club name for that matter? (it'll cost a tenner to say "Manchester United" and tuppence for "Blackburn Rovers" ;) )

It's a fixture list for crying out loud...World's gone mad...wibble, wibble...

Two questions

1) When do Sky come along and mess up the first bunch of fixtures?

2) Anybody know where there is an iCal file with the fixtures in - or am I typing them in again!

re 2 - best I've found - see my earlier post

There's a great feature on the Sky Sports site where you can click on an icon next to the fixture & it adds it to your calendar....saved me hours of CTRL C CTRL V type stuff...

Call me old fashioned but looking down that fixure list with all its Saturday 3 o'clock kick-offs makes me all nostalgic. I know its only a matter of time before Sky descends and tells us we have to play at 5.35 on a Sunday or a Tuesday evening or whatever other time they can fit us in around fishing programmes and championship darts. Meantime, we can look at that fixture list and think back to the times when the start of a new season meant almost anyone could win and almost anyone could go down.

Pass me the werthers originals, Jim...

ive looked at the entire list of fixtures. Apart from that Liverpool and Man United back to back fixtures, it is a list where we can lose a game, but win the next 2.. there is not a horrible run to be honest, where we play Arsenal, then Chelsea, the Tottenham. Its like Arsenal, then maybe home to West Brom and Newcastle as an example. Think with some good signings, that top 4, or 6 or 8 or 10 looks a good possibility

Top four? Are you being serious?

Rest assured that no matter who we sign that won't be happening... :!:

Lee's said he'll put the usual ical export he does on the official site once the first round of sky changes come in.

I've lived by iCal / Google Calendar for years, so I always pester him to do the iCal version.
