[Archived] Liverpool Away

[bob fleming]

To be fair that's pretty much the only thing we have over them.

When they started out they wore the famous blue and white halves. There's also that Premier League thing.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Have they won the Premierleauge Matt83?

[Tom]

Anyone apart from Henley and Hanley ever played at Anfield before?

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

All I want is a committed performance from the eleven guys out there this afternoon. I want them to be able to wring the sweat out of their shirts when they come off the pitch. Anything short of that will see us lose badly. Any repetition of the spineless City away FA Cup performance will NOT be acceptable.

I think Baptiste whilst he was at Blackpool. Also I think Gestede did in League cup for Cardiff against Liverpool

[Waggy76]

Theres only one Jack Walker and Venkys Out all through the game ...

That would make me proud to be a Rovers fan...

Agree fully.

I don't know anyone who thinks we are going to turn Liverpool over but we absolutely must try to compete. We are a lot closer to Liverpool than City - although still a massive chasm. But it's XI against XI. Quality will tell, effort shouldn't. Just look at Bradford.

Be surprised if we get anything out of the game, financially a draw would be a decent result, but as long as we give it a right good go, have a great day out all those that are going.

I had forgotten what it's like to wake up truly excited about a football match, takes me back to the pre Venky, Kean, Anderson days. Anyway today is not about them today is about Blackburn Rovers and we are Blackburn Rovers.

[Kamy100]

Have no real expectations of winning today so I am jiust going to enjoy the occasion, am sure that our fans will do the town proud and hope that the players give it their all and make it as difficult as possible for Liverpool.

[Tom]

They are scary when they click but let's not forget they were heading out at Bolton until a stupid red card.

You never know in the cup

[AJW]

If we played them 10 times they would win 7 , 2 would be drawn and we would win 1 .. lets hope today is that 1 day

[glen9mullan]

Hanley was in Dantes last night , so I guess it will be Killa n Henry at the back .

Good start to the day :-)

"Love Rovers, hate Venky's

Love Rovers, hate Venky's"

Repeat every 12 seconds.

[Blue blood]

Even got the wife watching this one! Last (and only) game she watched we put 4 past Swansea, so here's hoping for something similar.

[Mike Graham]

Take care at Liverpool today.

Watch your back pockets, car, wife and pie. They will nick anything.

[Paul]

Can't have the pie!

Yep, I'll settle for that. I want us to be in the game for a full 90 mins, but in truth I don't expect that to be the case. As long as we're not humiliated.

[Mercer]

Yep but thats we 3 Sky HD plus boxes plus all the sports and Movies. I don't watch normal tv unless it Football or Rugby Union. Most of the tv shows I watched are on Sky One or Sky Atlantic.

Plus I watch most PL football games and enjoy watching Spanish football. Plus I huge Cricket fan so thats on Sky also.

I only got BT sport for the Football and NBA.

In my view Sky is much better than BT for its TV shows and sport coverage. Fully worth the money IMO.

Chaddy, do you ever leave the house ?

[chaddyrovers]

Chaddy, do you ever leave the house ?

yes of course. have a full time permanent job.

but just a big Sport fan and America TV shows fan.

[Mercer]

I remember the cup semi against Arsenal down in Cardiff - we were in with a shout right up until the final few minutes.

Don't expect anything today but would be great if we are still in the game towards the finish.

Sadly, I think it could be a heavy defeat today.

yes of course. have a full time permanent job.

but just a big Sport fan and America TV shows fan.

Only joking Chaddy !

[Al]

Sky coverage is miles better and BT coverage not up to standards of Sky.

Haha, will it heck. Alls it means - as it does now - is that instead of paying one provider to watch footy, you now have to pay two.

Absolutely correct. BT cover is not a patch on SKY.

[perthblue02]

"Love Rovers, hate Venky's

Love Rovers, hate Venky's"

Repeat every 12 seconds.

Should that not be every 4.5 seconds to celebrate the Years/months since they and their friends rolled up

[Al]

I have all Sports and Movies offered by Sky plus BT sports. Plus 3 SKY HD plus boxes in the house. Cost me nearly 120 pounds a month but fully worth it.

Stone me Chaddy you must have more money than sense I have.

[Stuart]

Starting to feel really nervous. That can't be a good sign.

For clubs like Rovers the semis being at Wembley actually make the quarter finals like a cup final - if you know what I mean.
