AllRoverAsia Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 We all need an uplifting distraction from the impending R-Day so what are your best memories from this Season and from all the time that you have supported Rovers. Mine are: This Season - The Martin Emnes goal at Ewood. Sublime and I never tire of watching it. All Time - watching Ronnie Clayton lead the team out at Ewood Park. A more inspiring sight you could not imagine. The pride in the Shirt just oozed out of the man and everyone present was in awe. Still gives me goosebumps thinking about it COYB RTID

Ryan Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Shearer's goal v Newcastle in 1995. The atmosphere that night is the best I've ever witnessed at Ewood.
SIMON GARNERS 194 Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 This Season: Nowt All Time : Everything pre Venkys.
Backroom Mike E Posted May 1, 2017 Backroom Posted May 1, 2017 This season: Realising the WMC meetings were exactly what Blakeys should've led to. All time: For - Tugay. His goals, his passes, his keepy-uppies, putting Gerrard on his arse, and having Lamport on a bit of string. Against - THAT Henry goal from the left back position.
Backroom Mike E Posted May 1, 2017 Backroom Posted May 1, 2017 What can't I edit my misspelling of Lampard??? Tis like a dagger to my teaching heart!
blueboy3333 Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 This season - The performances of Lenihan All time - There have been many but the play-off home win against Derby stands out for sheer unbridled joy.
rigger Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 This season - yet to happen. All time- Walking up the steps of the Blackburn end for my first game. FA cup against City 68/69.

I think you have a 15 min window to edit posts. For me, This season. I had a good pie and @Scotty bought me a coffee on the Riverside. All time. VE Day, Preston Promotion, Gillingham Away (after promotion), all the European trips (especially Turkey), the Irish pre-seaons, that day in Krakow that @Jordan got a round in. They can ruin the football club, but they can't take my memories.

jim mk2 Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 None this season. All time: Thrashing the great Spurs side 7-2 circa 1962-3. Best I've ever seen Rovers play. Andy McEvoy !!

Andy McEvoy !! September 1963 Best game at Ewood I ever saw! And my first. Just found this LT link to best Rovers matches of the '60s http://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/football/match_of_the_decade/10428288.Match_of_the__60s__Blackburn_Rovers/
McClarky Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Can't comment on this season but my favourite Ewood game was the Derby Co play off win back in 1992.
NinjaTattoo Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 One of my best nights was Man Utd down here feb 2006 Bentley hat-trick 4-3 the whole place was BOUNCING.......great night.
Hasta Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Best moment ever is the final whistle at Anfield and the 7 hour party that followed it. Best moment this season was walking on Ewood 5 minutes into the Wolves game and seeing the amount of support for the 18/75 protest in the Blackburn end.
davulsukur Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 This season: Coyle leaving, absolutely hated that guy. Utter fraud. All time: Lots of great memories. Any time watching The Maestro. Never ever get tired of reliving some of his finest moments on YouTube (Seriously, go and watch some videos of him, cheer you right up) The 05/06 season was simply amazing, for a more recent highlight.
bazza Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 I was fortunate to watch the 8-3 beating of Bristol Rovers (Tommy Briggs' 7 goals) and the 9-0 thrashing of Middlesbrough thanks to my dad who took me on. 1954ish? I missed the 7-2 win over Spurs. When I first read the name of this thread I immediately thought of sitting in the Darwen End watching Kevin Moran score that important header at Derby on the big screen. Had the new Darwen End been built by then? Or is my mind playing tricks on me?
blueboy3333 Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Terracing Bazza. I was in there too. Derby filled it the week before for the first leg. They didn't knock up the stand that quick
PABBY Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 This season: that Emnes goal v Wigan. All-time: the exact moment at Anfield when we found out we'd won it. I've never felt pressure like that in anything else I've done in my 51 years, and it lifted in a moment. I ran down to the front, grabbed a steward and bawled my eyes out. Totally unforgettable. (An honourable mention must go to stuffing the Dingles 5-0.)

roverandout Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 This season. Sod all One of my best ever memories was back in 99 or 2000 when i was at anfield and nathan blake scored that goal to send us through against liverpool in the fa cup. I was even on talk sport earlier that day telling tom watt we'll do 'em. He even mentioned my call after the game.

I don't think he ever forgave me.
A cup of beans Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 This season: Not been. The past: Far too many. Aside from the 95 season... where it was difficult to sleep on a Friday night before the games. Garners hat trick v City. The Palace home game. We were superb. There was also a classic game against Wolves at home. That was breath taking as a youngster. Dunn''s equaliser v Burnley. Bedlam and raucous, unlike anything else I've witnessed.
Oldgregg86 Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 This season.. emnes against Wigan Previous... Beating the dingles 5-0 on a sunny April afternoon

Moderation Lead K-Hod Posted May 2, 2017 Moderation Lead Posted May 2, 2017 That game against Newcastle was unreal and my 11th birthday. I'll never forget that night.
