Steeve Kean reckons this is the best squad he has ever had,hard task for us but I think we will shave it.... http://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.u...burn_Rovers_boss_happy_with__best_squad_I_ve_
no this is fine wiz, but ill do one Sunday for the Peterborough game and then for the watford game, the watford thread should be more active as there boards almost as popular as ours
Blackburn are supposed to be bringing over 1000, we have close to 10k season ticket holders,so could be 15000 give or take tomorrow..
Looking forward to the Blackburn game especially after an enforced break of rubbish Internationals. Couldn't care less about the England set up. And to think it gave the whole nation such a lift back in 66. Those over paid primma donnas have ruined it for me.
My oh my, I've just spent a few minutes reading all the comments on the Blackburn managers comments on the link in #2 above. Nobody has a kind word to say about him. I've never seen so much vitriol about a football club manager. But then what would you expect from supporters of a team BRFC who play in blue and white shirts!
Today we will truly see the merit of BCFC....JUST HOPE IT AINT 0-0 OR 1-1 either team rescuing the draw in the last few minutes
OOOOOOOPS 2 goals in the past few minutes.................... .....hope this is a one off and not habitual
