My mate got his and my tickets on Saturday. Wanted BT East upper tier near the front but we had to accept row 23 and almost got row 29. Seems like most folk are doing the sensible thing and ordering by phone.

A short while ago you were wanting to break the decibel level at Cardiff - we'll just have to do it without you.

To be honest Ossy, I've heard very little negativity about Hughes. At work we deal with blokes from all over the show who support a wide variety of clubs. They all seem to think he's doing a good job and are full of praise for him. The only negativity at all has been from the "know-it-alls" who doubted his ability, from an experience point of view, when he was appointed.

That was my post - my son was still logged in!!

You could be right there! But it's not the one I was thinking of and I'm the quizmaster so my decision is final. - Ok so you could have 2 things over us. Keep trying - if you want the answer just ask.

And ELEVENTH major ever.

She can't answer my little teaser though.

Excellent post Billinge. Can we please also stop applauding the opposition keeper as he runs to the Blackburn End nets either at the start of the game or start of the second half. The only thing it does is make him feel more at home. Applaud him after the game by all means. Today, the Leicester fans continually gave Brad stick whilst he was defending the Darwen End nets. Most of the Blackburn End gave their keeper polite applause.

Laget mitt er Ålesund On a serious note I think anything by Doris Day, Vera Lynn or even Nana Mouscouri (sp?) would get the place rocking.

No - well not the ones I am thinking of anyway - surely ready steady or Cool Claret etc can come up with the goods? Come on Dingles, Let's Be Having You.

Who has won more League Titles (old 1st Div)? - Rovers Who has won more FA Cups?- Rovers Who has won more League Cups? - Rovers Who has played more times in the Top Flight? - Rovers Who has won more Rovers v Burnley matches? - Rovers Who has the better stadium? - Rovers Who has the bigger stadium? - Rovers Who has the higher record crowd? - Rovers Who was formed first? - Rovers Now then, there is one statistic that Burnley have over Rovers, yes, just the one. Any of our Dingle friends care to advise me what that is? It's a definite statistic, not an opinion. Sensible answers only please.

Oh and BTW, the rainbow thing wasn't funny at all.

19000 tickets have already been sold Ho-Hum, it was an attempt at humour. I'm well aware 19,000 tickets have been sold. My attendance was for empty seats. If you look at the score........yes, that 2-0 thingy, you will see Empty Seats 2 Full seats 0 and another attempt at humour, empty being Rovers and full being Leicester. Two attempts at humour in only one post. Get it now?

Empty Seats 2 Full Seats 0 Attendance 8,880 (Empty Seats Wise) Weather - Sunny but with some rain causing a rainbow starting over Ewood and finishing in Cardiff.

I AM THE PROPHET..........AND YOUR NEW LEADER

Rovers to grind out a 1-0 win

Agreed - Norwich smacked everyones arses last season in Division 1 and are about to be relegated from the PL because of the huge gulf between the two divisions. We've just beaten Norwich 3-0. Says it all.

Agreed - it occured to me last night that we should give him a go wide right instead of Emerton, who never looks up, doesn't seem to know where anyone else is and just runs into trouble. rant over Good points but I'm not so sure of Gally's tracking back and defensive duties. But as my mate has said since day one, Emerton couldn't beat an egg.

Just change you name to theoriginalfootballhooligan and have done with it. Pr!ck 2-1 14 April 1979

Lad? Nothing to do with the fact that we won the PL, sonny, I was pointing out the dumb use of the word respect. I'll repeat - none of us have respect for Burnley.

Hey, ben The Beast, I see you're from Hayling Island. Most dads take their families somewhere exotic for their summer holidays - Mallorca, Tenerife etc (well fairly exotic). In 1968 mine took us camping to............Hayling Island!

Not one of us has respect (I hate that word) for Burnley. You have to earn respect and Burnley have never done that. That said I do miss the East Lancs Derbies on a regular basis, but the fact that we do not play regularly in effect shows we are top dogs and have been for over a quarter of a century. 14 April 1979.

When Burnley last beat Rovers I was a single lad. Now married, we recently celebrated our Silver Wedding and have two kids, one almost 21 and the other 15 in a few weeks. Burnley fans, read and weep. It was that long ago - 14 April 1979.

LONG MAY YOUR INFERIORITY CONTINUE!!!!!! BEATEN AGAIN BY THE ROVERS BLACKBURN ROVERS FC - PRIDE OF EAST LANCASHIRE

Sod the 17 years figure - it's another one you should be looking at. 25 YEARS AND ELEVEN MONTHS SINCE YOU LAST BEAT BLACKBURN ROVERS. Why is that, I wonder? I have never met a Dingle who can tell me?

Just back from the game - crap generally but atmosphere superb. Blackburn End and end sections of Riverside and Jack Walker Lower (nearest the Dingles) stood up all game. Makes the singing so much better when you stand. Well done Rovers and once again MGP - soon to achieve cult status at Ewood. Wait till we here from Longsider 1882 and the Original Longsider (named incorrectly because I must have set foot in the Longside before him) who'll no doubt go on about their fantastic support but not mention the match, as usual. 17500 Burnley fans on the Turf 21500 Rovers fans on Ewood How can that be as they're the best supported club by far? And with a much bigger catchment area? Must be some mistake. BLACKBURN ROVERS FC - PRIDE OF EAST LANCASHIRE AND UNBEATEN AGAINST BURNLEY SINCE 14 APRIL 1979
