The singing of the national anthem simply provoked the Sellick fans to sing “stand up if you hate the queen”. I was openly supporting The Rovers in their end with no trouble whatsoever. They were actually quite pleased that there was an edge to the game in truth.

Ah this reminds me of the late, great Peter Alliss, the finest golf commentator of them all.

Sorry mate but you’re talking nonsense here. I know lots of Celtic fans who follow them all over the world and it’s like being transported back to 1972. Rangers are exactly the same. How Celtic fans won that award in 2003 beggars belief. My son was in Seville for the final and he tells some ‘interesting’ stories about what they got up to. My brother was a police officer on duty at Ewood for our game against them and he said it was the worst support he had ever had to deal with in 30 years. Even on Saturday for a friendly game (I was in the Celtic end with my sons) they were singing some pretty vile songs. They also like to play the victims in a very similar way to Liverpool fans so no, they are not generally well thought of at all.

Salt, David and Gleeson the match winners there, hopefully.

I thought about getting Dylan tickets for Glasgow, then saw the price and then saw the mobile phone rule and decided to swerve it Gav. Had I not already seen him I might have taken the hit, just to tick the box though, to be fair.

The Beatles - Mean Mr Mustard

Both key players for us, that is good news chaddy

The record sleeve that is my profile pic on here: The Jam - All Around the World

Them - Here Comes The Night

It should take spin today, I reckon we still have a chance of winning. I heard it was the highest score ever made by a Lancashire batsman in Lancashire.

They weren't at full strength by any means but they did have more experienced players on the park than us, by and large.

It was basically a youth/reserve team in a very early pre season friendly. Hyperbolic reaction from ‘your friend’. First time I’ve seen the younger Wharton play tonight and as far as I’m concerned he will be a first team regular this season. That’s what I’ll choose to take from tonight’s game.

Pears is simply not a professional goalkeeper.

The Jam - Away From the Numbers Paul Weller’s first great song, written at the tender age of 18.

Doctor Feelgood - Riot In Cell Block Number Nine

They'll be showcasing their own new away kit, no doubt. I must say I've never agreed with us having a blue away shirt, despite the fact that a couple of them have actually been quite nice over the years.

The Moody Blues - Nights In White Satin

Just seen what looked like Luca Toni browsing the V & A museum in Dundee.

Prefab Sprout - One of the Broken

Paul Weller - Pieces of a Dream

The Clash - Gates of the West

Paul Weller - Come On/Let's Go

If he were to fire us to promotion there’d be value in it alright.

Vale scored the first Rovers goal of the JDT era, 1-0.

I hear that there's a right winger just been released, he has some reputational issues but is available on a free. Johnstone or Johnson or something he's called.
