Appreciate your input. Just a shame they don’t serve Guinness in the ground! Or can I get in the blues bar? 

Go to a pub on Livesey Branch Road for your Guinness. Don't rely on Ewood Park. I don't know if these serve it but there's the Fox and Hounds, The Brown Cow, the Moorgate and others. You need a proper pub for Guinness; the English version, not the Liffey water of Dublin, of course.🍺

Cow has been closed on last match days

I can’t tell anybody how to spend their money, as I live in Texas. But, if I lived within 50 miles of Blackburn, I’d be at every game played at Ewood. It’s the only Rovers we have, or ever will have.

They've been battling a Covid outbreak amongst staff. Hopefully all will be well (pardon the pun) and 't cowbrown will be open again for this afternoon's game.

Slightly nervous once again as we head into the new year - a lot is riding on the form over the next few games. Keep a settled side and continue to exhibit cohesion and team spirit and we will be fine.

COYB!

Jayzus, ye'll be claiming that Uisce beatha is better from England next! It isn't, never was, never will be - go raibh míle maith agat!

But yes, even if Rovers did serve the Liffey water at the ground, there would be an ice-cube in hell's chance of it coming out anything less than pish, so one of the local pubs is definitely a good shout for a pint before the game.

Here's something to get your taste buds salivating 😉

That’s a piece of heaven right there! Looking forward to the game even more now.

How come ours seems to be the only non red button match?

Is it not on Sky today? Am a season ticket holder but diagnosed positive for Covid yesterday so self isolating. Can't go to the game. Worse still have to take a PCR test today and it's at Turf Moor! 🤕🤕🤕

Be sure to breath over everything 🤒 a covid break out could aid their relegation aspirations 👍

Don't forget to wear your Rovers shirt!

I believe if the game is deemed a ‘Bank Holiday Fixture’ (yes I know that’s tomorrow!) then the home club doesn’t have to allow red button coverage, so to encourage folk to buy tickets.

Thanks

5k Huddersfield fans, decent take up of home seats could see a great atmosphere in the stadium.

Back the lads to victory👍👏

I'll believe that when I see it.

They only bring about 6 fans to the DW for the rugby league. Has never struck me as a sporting town.

Its on Rovers TV for those living abroad, so I would think so,

[Mattyblue]

Disagree there, they are a good, solid club and fanbase, with a history going back to the multiple title and cup winning time of Herbert Chapman, and it’s not really a like for like comparison. HTFC are a far bigger club than their rugby league team, don’t they get some of the lowest crowds in Super League?

They're a net drain on Super League. Pointless club.

6 fans for rugby league sounds about right!😂

Rovers to win 2-0 and back to clean sheets.

Brereton and Rothwell once again to score.

 

We need to be on our toes today. Will be a tough game.

 

[neophox]

Think Hudds is playing counter attacking game and are trying to play the way we do. Not having much posession but with pacy wingers/strikers counter on the break. Could be an funny game to watch with attacking football.

[1864roverite]

And it’s off to Ewood, the real theatre of dreams😂⚽️⚽️⚽️Come on you blues

[Hannoverover]

Looking like a good crowd today. BBE lower almost sold out!

Hoping for a 2-1 win, BBD and Wharton. Will be a very close game

[Colt Seavers]

Massive game. Getting nervous. Need an early goal...

Who did we play after Barnsley?

[neophox]

Anyone got the starting eleven?
