The cynical ones amongst us could go to town on that remark but even i'll give it a wide breath

Late 70's? Or early 80's? You can't remember when you started to support them? But you've never seen a burnley win? Biggest triumph by burnley in recent memory is Ewood Park 1983: Burnley fans caused chaos by throwing roofing panels at there own supports situated in the Darwen end. Facts of the matter are Blackburn Rovers contributed to burnleys relegation that season and long may it live in Blackburn Rovers history

In the last couple of years we have had many good teams, such as Liverpool (we won) Spurs (Twice, won 1 lost 1) Villa (We won) Man Utd (We lost) The arrival of B*****ds is not seen as a big club in anyway. A Big game, sure but certainly not a big club The quote re Yorkshire was from you dimwit so why not get your own coat - or if you cannot afford one do as B*****ds folk often do and take the nearest one not being closely watched To the fool who feels the need to pick up simple spelling mistakes, I'll take it you meant I'm shall I You started of so well longsiders.................. Blackburn Rovers will always be your cup final despite your remonstrations and for supporters such as me vice versa but stop trying to play 'Mr not interested' because we all know its by far a bigger game for burnley fans than 'Most' Blackburn fans.

Not sure why you all feel the need to prove the lack of education in Blackburn by getting your geography all mixed up. Even genetic deficients like yourselves should be able to discern simple county lines on a map My point exactly, YOU'RE FROM YORKSHIRE I'll get yer coat.....

I was responding to remarks made by a fellow poster not some six fingered, web footed muppet from Yorkshire. I really couldn't care less to be honest but my therapist says dialogue is the best way forward after taking a job in the land that time forgot so stop trying to disrupt my theraphy

It won't matter in the grand scheme of things because regardless of a sell out of not you can be assured that in years to come burnley fans will believe we failed to sell out and the they had 10,000 stood outside. Thats just the way it goes.... lol gav im in the office and one of the dingles said to me there was a half mile queue today .I just laugh me bollux off! Abbey, I know for a fact that the longest the queue got today was the main entrance to the Bob Lord stand! and thats from a few lads doing some work at t'urf who were there from 7.30am Burnley fans, don't you just love em really gav - thats funny because I can't tell you for a fact the longest it got but I can tell you it reached all the way past the bob lord to the Wellington. It took 1hr and 20 minuted to get tickets - and that is a fact. Not from my best mates uncle, friends lads neighbors lover who was working outside the turf (funnily enough there is no building work outside the turf today - perhaps your 'mate' was confused?) I would say that made it half a mile though. As for the Jack Straw quote. Perhaps he had better remember that without Campbell the only place an odious looking man like him could ever have got elected was Germany circa 1938-1945 really gav - thats funny because I can't tell you for a fact the longest it got but I can tell you it reached all the way past the bob lord to the Wellington.

To be honest i couldn't give A FLYING **** how long the queue was. Still living far away from burnley? or am i on the wrong longsider.....

Debs just heard a story on Radio 5 regarding Jack Straw and Alistair Campbell. As most will be aware Campbell has been brought back into the labour party fold to push the election campaign. The story goes that he sent an email via his blackberry to the wrong person regarding the recent poster controversy but the mail contained "F*** *F" and for this reason was brought to light. Jack Straw commented on the email by saying something along the lines of: "I think Alistair is very talented but needs to learn how to use his blackberry. I have no problems with the posters at all but speaking as a Blackburn Rovers fan I know that people from burnley are often technophobes and I know that the people of Blackburn will understand what I’m talking about! Nice one Jack Rovers 1 burnley 0

And lo and behold here you are, putting in your two cents.

What big games have you lot ever been involved in? apart from the mauling we gave you a few years back? Pull the other one samual

Wasn't that bad in 87 Didn't go on the train last time myself but had a first hand account from a few mates that did. Not worth the hassle and even if you wanted to avoid the usual suspects you couldn't as the local police held everyone together. Why don't we do what burnley did last time at ours? Catch the train and get off 6 miles from the ground and walk the rest of the way That'll show them nasty Blackburn fans.......

Upon arrival at burnley manchester road you'll be batton charged and section 60'd for your troubles just like last time. Let the train take the strain

Police made all unofficial coaches join the main convoy last time round, if they refused then the coach was stopped from travelling

Absolute cr@p If you were sat JW lower surely you'd have seen the empty seats both upper and lower tier in the Darwen? And lets face it for your cup final as well. Typical dingle "We got stuffed but we sold out"

Working for a large company in burnley you can imagine the brown stuffs flying like never before Interestingly enough I’ve had 2 conversations with 2 different burnley fans and one genuinely doesn't remember the defeats a few seasons ago and he's deadly serious? And the other claims a victory on Boxing Day 3-1 to burnley 'NOT SO LONG AGO' LAUGH I NEARLY WET MYSELF....... As for tickets, some people need to calm down you'll have no problems getting tickets for this one.

The usual rubbish being spouted over tickets when approx 800 seats were left unsold for the game last time out I'd guess 3000 tops to be sold this time especially if it’s on TV. We couldn't even sell out bolton away in the Premiership during the bloody Christmas holidays. It won't matter one bit if you've a season ticket or hold stubbs from away games you'll get a ticket if you want one.

A win win win situation for bumley, they've got the gate money, TV money and a shot at their illustrious neighbours which they aren’t expected to win. Terrible draw for us but I guess another day out in the land that time forgot would be nice if we win. Anyone who didn't go last time should try to go this as it was an unbelievable atmosphere and one saved only for Rovers bumley games. 'What's it like to see a crowd'

If this goes through its the most ambitious signing in years and the board should be applauded for finding the funds. Also how good would it be to shove another one up Birmingham Could be the difference between relegation and staying up.

You can blame who the hell you want but tonight we were absolutely terrible especially upfront. Anyone who thinks bothroyd is a footballer should see the same shrink as me

You make some good points but I think in this matter its clear that Ferguson and his family just cannot settle in the north west of England and want to move back to Glasgow, simple as that. I'm sure Barry himself will admit that he's not exactly set the premiership alight and with his injury to boot I feel he owes Blackburn Rovers some loyalty and hopefully he'll stay until the summer. If Rangers are indeed serious about signing him in this transfer window they need to pay the going rate and not try to pinch him on the cheap. The powers that be will not allow him to go for peanuts so either put up or shut up Mr Murray and that is the bottom line.

They don't need Savage you know.....

Absolutely spot on Scotty. What a bunch of amateurs they really are slinging mud in the sun day in day out. Until those clowns are removed from the club they'll continue to struggle despite being a MASSIVE CLUB!

I'm slowly losing the will to live. Todd for captain a guy who refused to pull on the shirt last season DISGRACEFUL.

Very difficult to claim the moral high ground here after the Savage saga but you'd have thought Ferguson would feel he owed us some loyalty after the backing the club and supporters gave him during his injury nightmare. When he's been fit he's hardly set the premiership alight either. But lets face it he couldn't lace Batty or Sherwoods boots and isn't a massive loss if we get a decent price for him.
