Blackburn Rovers 1-2 Watford Fc - 23/12/2023

I'm getting into the beautiful town of Blackburn around midday and from then until kickoff I will drink as much cheap northern bitter as I can swill down by gullet.

Then, when I get to their ground, I will deliberately dispense my hot, frothy piss all over the floor of their bogs. Every time I need to go.

This is my vow to the forum.

3 ******* nil us

 

I think you may be underplaying the importance of the Weald and Downs in that assessment....

 

RC you must be mellowing in your old age. I do enjoy your observations so much more now you've chosen to tone things down a little.
Well played Sir!

 

Mike, I'm afraid the post by @RoversPolice leaves us all a bit unclear. Have they designated whether the pre-match fights at the Fernhurst and Golden Cup are to take place inside or outside and when? Many thanks!!

 

Gotta take a ticket before you get served at the cheese counter.

 

Play list for tomorrow. Chosen by a Rovers fan. Sorry if a couple are a bit cheesy

 

Blue cheesy ? Soft cheesy? Smoked cheesy ?

 

There's stilton time to gouda ticket.

 

Stop talking about cheese.I Camembert it.

 

Blimey, The Stiffs are one from the past, but from Blackburn it appears.

 

Safe journey. It is wild out there today and the morning will be no better.

Brie yourselves down to the Fanzone behind the home end. I will be the handsome one at the Supporters Trust stall with a smile like a cheddar cat.

 

I think the Nigel’s are too scared to be rivals with their real geotechnical local team.

 

Yes they are from Blackburn. New Order are regarded as a Blackburn band as the local rave scene helped make them. The lead singer of Blancmange is also a local lad; we are trying to get him as speaker at our Trust AGM in June.

 

I’m

 

Cult of Personality! Guessing there's an excited WWE fan on the staff at Blackburn...

 

Another famous Blackburnian warbler, now resident in the USA.

 

Don’t expect the inclusion of a SEJ song will curry any favour…none of us bought his records anyway.

 

By my reckoning we can still catch Red Leicester...

 

There is literally no excuse for The Darkness though. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

 

That's because we are all Gooners.

 

I think you’ll find the SEJ fan club is rammed with Gooners.

 

I cannot accept New Order as a Blackburn band. By that rule they are owned by the entire north west. They do remain the best UK band of the last 4 decades though.

Stockholm Monsters is a blast from the past, they supported New Order many times.

Is the fan takeover looking like a big crowd?

 

Correction. Best band, not best U.K. band.

With apologies to 5ive.

(And Kraftwerk).

 

Played them last week mate , keep up !

 

You must have been on The Garstang Blue before bed Platy?

 

Fights can take anywhere on the understanding full Santa suits are worn in respect of the holiday season .

 

Sam Szmodics out for Blackburn tomorrow. That's got to be a bit of setback for them given he's top scorer in the league.

 

Yikes.

 

Well I appreciate the gesture but Step into Christmas is a lame seasonal effort only made good when The Wedding Present covered it.

 

Apparently it began before the aforementioned El Tel v Mullery spat.

A Palace fan ( I think) was killed on a train either before or after the game.

And they made Mr IBP buy a BHA top to wear in the executive area as they didn't like his pullover!

 

I rather like it!

 

DB at RB again ? Odd....
Porteous back for Sierralta ? Odd....

 

Andrews made a few errors that lead to goals in consecutive games before Preston, but TBD at right back is not the answer.
