  1. Yes Matty, the excellent club timeline removed and replaced with a galling advertisement for away tickets.
  2. The 'halves' have changed sides many times in the past.I have old Rovers team postcards with players wearing different side halves in the same pic!
  3. Going for 1-1 here in front of 12,200. Just a side note....I see the excellent pictorial history of the club has been removed and replaced with 'Away ticket office' at the Darwen end. Pathetic.
  4. As mentioned it was indeed taken on Bolton Rd just outside of were the old Infirmary used to be,all heading towards Ewood. These old photos always get me thinking what did these people do in their lives?,sadly most now no longer with us.The middle aged fellas would have been glad to see a game at Ewood again having just fought a World War,the older gents would have witnessed the greatest Rover of them all Bob Crompton and the glory of two top title wins. A day at the Rovers would have been a big event for these good people and thousands alike across the country come Saturday. Love it.
  5. Exactly.I think a new stand is way down on their VERY short list of Ewood Priorities. They would only act if the back of the stand floated off down the River!
  6. This is my fear also...Wigan and Brum should have been nailed on home bankers. Seems a psychological problem for us at times,we fail to raise our game against lower placed teams.
  7. I really would have Fury to give AJ a similar battering on that showing.
  8. What a fight from Fury,Wilder looked battered! Took the fight right to him from the first bell,moves so well for a big lump...you have to respect the man for what he has overcome in his personal life. His boxing reputation as well as his bank balance is set to increase greatly and deservingly so. Earned.
  9. Very entertaining game and Rovers were in it right to the final whistle. Fair play to both sides....a superbly taken goal for each side worthy of the Top flight.
  10. Why the hell are we not in the world famous halves? Looks a decent following.
  11. The original building dating from the 1600's is listed.Fred Walker invested into this business.
  12. Yep,some pathetic performances against the bottom sides.
  13. What about the Baggies game £15 across the board?...we could have a 20k + crowd on there.
  14. Have an awful feeling the non performances over Xmas will really come back to bite us hard. A season of if only?
  15. Tight as a Ducks Arse (so the saying goes) round these parts!
  16. These are the 'floating' supporters that we have lost,and there are literally thousands of them in this area.Only promotion will bring them back and its a similar trait at all the local town team clubs... Burnley's now near 20k average was only around 13,500 when they were promoted.
  17. Quite frightening when you think Ewood could have just the JW stand open tomorrow night with probably room to spare. Sad times.
