  1. The entry of Benni McCarthy's goal against Liverpool on Boxing Day 2006... but of course this is all about Tugay and Steven Gerrard! https://www.brfcs.com/magazine/articles/101-great-goals:-benni-mccarthy/607
  2. The definitive (?!) Rovers Top 20 Boxing Day classics in this article! Any missing which need adding or others which need moving up the rankings?! https://www.brfcs.com/magazine/articles/blackburn-rovers-top-20:-boxing-day-classics/600
  3. BLAKE SUPERIOR... incredible headline!!👏 Had always thought BLAKE'S HEAVEN was the only good one for this!
  4. New article about long winning sequences in Rovers history.... could Eustace match Howard Kendall? https://www.brfcs.com/magazine/articles/kendallian-times/627
  5. For the last few years, 4,000 Holes has been establishing a ‘101 Great Goals’ collection. These have been put forward as fanzine articles by a variety of Rovers supporters. The rules are very relaxed. It can be a Goal of the Season contender, a promotion-winning strike, a scrappy effort which broke a goalscoring duck, or one which is memorable for any other obscure reason. Some maverick has even added a couple of goals scored against Rovers into the list! On that note, here's Matt Le Tissier's induction from this day 30 years ago. The best goal Ewood has ever seen? https://www.brfcs.com/magazine/articles/101-great-goals:-matt-le-tissier/597
  6. Huge thanks to Bruce Wilkinson for thoroughly researching the inconsistencies about the birth year of Rovers and putting together this comprehensive article, which has been published today. Mystery solved then....😆 Please visit: https://www.brfcs.com/magazine/articles/blackburn-rovers-the-origins/578
  7. Some random bits of trivia after the weekend's action: https://www.brfcs.com/magazine/articles/norwich-city-v-blackburn-rovers-in-numbers/558
  8. Compiled a few interesting facts and figures about the Derby match in this article… https://brfcs.com/magazine/articles/blackburn-rovers-v-derby-county-in-numbers/556
  9. Happy 90th Birthday to the one and only Bryan Douglas. Please enjoy an account of one of Duggie's wondergoals by Fred Cumpstey, which has been published on the site today: https://brfcs.com/magazine/articles/101-great-goals:-bryan-douglas/547
  10. Jim Branagan did manage 5 goals in 337 appearances - so not exactly a Ryan Nyambe! Scored against: Rotherham (A) 5/2/80, Newcastle (H) 1/5/82, Wolves (H) 15/1/83, Oldham (H) 20/10/84, Shrewsbury (H) 7/2/87. For reference, here's the one he's not been credited with against Bury:
  11. Simon Garner HITS BACK at any plans to take away one of his goals😆
  12. Spotted the 95/96 away shirt inside a pub in Porto San Giorgio on the east coast of Italy. Summer 2006.
  13. Fascinating bit of Rovers trivia here about Simon Garner's club record 192 Rovers goals. As revealed by 4,000 Holes this season, it appears that one goal in 1980 was incorrectly credited to him – so should the true record be 191 goals? Full details in this article: https://brfcs.com/magazine/articles/the-phantom-garner-goal/546 It's not quite "were Rovers actually founded in 1874?!" but any information, explanations or opinions about this mystery would be greatly appreciated!
