Could you manage to read it Tyrone? 

I have more coming, I want to make sure they’re readable.

Yes I can just about Gav but I’m only reading on an iPad. It may be easier on a bigger screen.

Does anyone know if the "Blackburn Rovers FC" stone carving by Jack is the original from the early days? 

Also was anything saved from the old Ewood park? Turnstiles? Seats? Gates or anything that can be seen today of the old ewood park? Love anything like this.
