It's taking longer than I expected from you Bob but its nice to see that you are getting there. Whitebirk has already been ruled out for car parking reasons. The whole project is now on hold until the East Lancs Rapid Transit System is completed (expected approx 2040 ).

Fans are not transferable, as Butcher Bob Lord found out when he closed down Accy Stanley to get their support. They just stopped watching footie and Burnley's gate didn't benefit one jot.

The parking scheme was only put in because of the footie!

BEB, I think there was a similar situation at Boro which involved doing a slalem back onto the M-way to avoid Dibble and get to the boozer before the escort kicked in. Enjoy tomorrow night:- "don't be bitten twice, you've gotta suss suss suss suss suss suss suss the suspect device". One of my highlights (there are so many) was Carlisle (Sunday before one Christmas) using AP Coaches Of Burnley and painted claret and blue. We travelled over Shap Fell on the M6 in a snowstorm with no windscreen wipers. The Asian driver had to stop every mile and clear the screen with a long handled brush. The ale stop was Penrith. Carlisle' average gate of 6,000 was swelled to 12,000 by a 6,000 strong army from Blackburn vindicating Carlisle's decision to switch the game from Saturday to avoid Xmas shopping. There was a huge pitch invasion at half time by Rovers fans who occupied all sides of the ground (the away end only had 3 turnstiles). The trip was even rounded off with a fine victory.

American Take off the blinkers. The Russian is clearly a hard nosed businessman. He may choose not to leave the club debt free and mortgage all the assets...... .......the bigger they are, the harder they fall.

They might even need to start a campaign to 'Save the Bridge'!

And ultimately, without the backer, unable to maintain their status.

Yes phillip, But where will Chelsea be when Roman has laundered his allegedly ill gotten gains from Sibneft, got fed up of his new toy and moved on somewhere else? In a tight spot!

Is there room for Ian Pearce? Memories include fine goal at Shrewsbury. Some tremendous displays alongside Hendry including that rearguard action for the last 80 minutes, at Goodison in 1995.

Rovers 1 - 0 Gally crosses for Djorkaeff to score.

Was that for a midweek game? That's right......... .......The day before!

I suggest you try another carrier. In my experience the best was provided by the Valley Blues in the 1980's, organised by Messrs Horsfield and Sykes when Rovers would not cater for the Ribble Valley. Coach or van was guaranteed to every game. Copious amounts of alcohol. Stops that lasted for hours. Top class card school. Ridiculous timetables eg Man City (a) dep 10.00am Happy days!

Home win. And the drummers get banning orders.......

Full name: Tim 'this ball's a hot potato' Sherwood.

I was there in '92 but didn't have a flashback. Rooney's not that good yet.

.......and we've liberated Paris without any help from the British or Americans.

Den Stop moving 'the goalposts'. Everyone should stick to the rules when the competition started, because you'll never please everyone!

We should be able to sue him for malpractice.

When did we sign them?

Which Xmas are you referring to ?

Great idea. I actually emailed radio rovers and asked them if that could be done on the big screen, before each home game. Everton do it. Unsurprisingly, I didn't recieve a reply. The interest would be massive. Clayton, Douglas, etc and it would be great to see the old Ewood packed tothe rafters.

Could the club build an archive of film footage of Ewood greats to be shown in Blues Bar at a certain time each week. I would be particularly interested in any clips of Eckersley.

Can you let me have the flight details?

Unbelieveable. If ability were the only criteria (or longevity, or loyalty, or honesty, or character), Le Saux would be bottom of the list and Newton and Eckersley near the top of it. Le Saux's lead in this vote is a farce and makes the whole exercise a waste of time. Absolutely. I could make a case for Alan Wright coming above Le Saux and he doesn't even appear on the list.

You can buy fashion but ya can't buy style.
