I went to the abandoned game away at Cambridge, that was a long way back.... Ive just searched for the game in question, can’t find it, did it actually happen? Or have I dreamed that one?

A Tuesday night in February, away to Cambridge and a decent following, hero’s everyone that travelled. I salute you, 28yrs after the fact, but better late than never.

How good does our kit look? superb. We look a very good side, we’ve come on leaps and bounds since last season, I’m feeling optimistic about our chances this season. On the flip side, promotion winning sides usually win these kind of games away from home, we dominated the first half, losing the game is hard to take as we played really well. Tony has us playing well, long may it continue.

Big group of Newcastle fans on Bburn end that day, never seen that before, surrounded by police, got pelters when we scored. Genuinely think they got sold the wrong tickets, certainly not Gremlins.

That’s a tremendous result on the face of things, to grind out a draw at Brentford with 10 men for 45 mins is superb, shows great character. This side is on the right path, if we’re in the same position come Feb we’ve a chance.

This will be a real test today against last seasons play off finalists, a much better side than Fulham in my opinion who went up. Brentford are very strong at home and will no doubt be there or thereabouts at the end of the season. I'd take a draw now 1-1

Not El Greco but the top of the ramp, 60's modern.

Another Saturday night of boxing is ahead of us with the main event for me being Spence Jr v Garcia on Premier Sports overnight from Dallas. Both with superb records, two real classy fighters, looking forward to it. Anthony Yarde v Lyndon Arthur is the main event domestically from Church House Westminster, with a decent undercard too, on BT Sports.

It was time for Tony to move on, he'd done a tremendous job for the club over the years, but Hughes wanted to bring new impetus and he did just that. Good players, good football and a desire to win, I loved the Hughes years. Can we get him back?

I'm not saying this is wrong, but its the sort of thing I can hear my dad saying, him being fiercely protective over Rovers and our players, they could do no wrong

Then he proceeded to kick the ball out of the ground

Remember that game well, the original match was postponed due to snow/ice, we sold out for the Saturday and still took thousands on the Tuesday. The dingles were going to derby on the Saturday and the police were worried, think they staggered the rearranged games midweek, it’s was to cold to scrap anyway. Notts County had a decent side, was Warnock the manager? First division side at the time? The Speedie incident was never a sending off

I wonder if the Rovers fans stood behind the floodlight pylon had reduced tickets because of the restricted view Echo what everyone has already said, without doubt the worst day I've ever had following football, the journey home was mostly stunned silence.

That was early 80’s when racism was rife across the UK and football was a breading ground for the brain dead. It Certainly wasn’t the case in early 90’s, but thanks for bringing it up.

Does anyone remember the Watford home game where ‘Whisper chocolate bars’ had a promotion on, handed out in the Blackburn End and launched at a young David James for 45mins

Its a great shirt, a great come back against a decent Swindon side and a Blackburn End going mental. Love seeing the chap walking round pushing his trolley selling tea/coffee and Bovril. They can't take away our memories.

That jab as you said earlier was superb from Joyce, he couldn't miss. Sounds bad, its making my eyes water thinking about a broken eye socket, but he's a professional boxer and should have carried on in my opinion. But its easy saying that sat in the living room miles away from a boxing ring.

Just watched the Tyson v Jones fight. Tyson was much fitter than anyone expected, Jones showed fast hands at times but held on for most of the fight and who can blame him with those Tyson bombs coming at him. Neither boxer disgraced themselves, flashes of the old magic at times, worth the £20. Dubois gave up last night, I’ve not seen a boxer give up like that, it’s usually stopped by the corner or the ref. His corner questioned his attitude a round earlier, telling him ‘This is the fight game Daniel’ but it wasn’t enough to convince Dubois. Serious questions over his attitude and desire.

2nd T20 in South Africa tomorrow. We got away with one last time out against an underprepared SA, Roy needs to get his act together, looking forward to it. I agree with Riverside above, test cricket suffers when players concentrate on the shorter game and all the riches that come with it. As a fan I’d much rather win the Ashes than any cup in the shorter game, but I love watching both forms of the game.

Tyson was unbeatable in his early career, a colossus until the money came rolling in and he took his eye off the ball. Roy Jones was also one of the best boxers to ever set foot in the ring, but that was at middle weight/Super middle. Both are absolute legends, but this tonight is a bit of a freak show for me. Tyson had little or no stamina at the end of his career in 2006, losing to 2 journeymen in Danny Williams and Kevin Mcbride, he won’t have much in the tank after 2 rounds. Jones will sit back, soak up the Tyson attack and win on points, unless Tyson catches him, he will still carry some significant power. I saw Hopkins fight Jones in Vegas a few years back, watched them at Mandalay Bay, that was a terrible fight, tonight will potentially be the same. Ok ok I’ve bought it......being a boxing fan and to once again see 2 legends pull on the leather was a chance I couldn’t miss.

Just watched the NZ vrs Argentina game which the All Blacks won at a canter after losing to them a few weeks ago. The highlight for me was actually before the game started, the All Blacks lined up for the Haka and Sam Cane walked forward, placed an All Black shirt with 10 Maradona on the centre spot, absolute class.

That over by Hendericks going for 27 was the clincher, I was worried up to that point o2g. Now for Saints to beat Wigan.

Very good I liked the quote from Maradona where he talked about giving his opponents a chance, because he drank heavily and took drugs: "Imagine what I could have been, what I could have achieved if I had been clean."

His other 400 games for Santos played in a tin pot league as I said. But can’t argue with your second paragraph, it’s all about opinions Jim, we’ve lost a great today. RIP Diego.
