13,935 there against Leicester.

BRFC have announced that new seating will be installed in the Blackburn End for next season. They have managed to get a three piece suite and two occasional chairs from the DFS sale.

We couldn't believe it when we got on the Clayton End and saw how few were there, Jay. And it's not as if people are staying away in protest at the manager and owners like the Rovers situation.

I've been doing the guess that gate for a few seasons now and can't remember one so low, maybe its because it was a bank holiday weekend, which is the only thing I can put it down too

Sheer, unadulterated apathy in my view, but let's hope gates pick up from here on in!

Its just a pity a lot more don't have your love for the club at heart, but of course, you can remember what happened back in the sixties

I've come to the conclusion that most folk in the area just don't care and would be largely indifferent if history repeated itself.

the stanley crowd was down because of 2 things i believe.
1. The terrible weather
2. The cost
i know a good few who are unwilling/unable to pay the new charges this season.

it was £27 at ewood on saturday in the jack walker, so i returned to my old stomping ground , my beloved Riverside which cost £19.
we were lucky to win...
you don't get punished in the championship like you do in the Prem.

most people get there fill of footie from t.v.
i've been going to live matches since i was 8years old.
it's something your brought up on.
i don't know too many people who watch footie week in week out , year in year out. it must be a minute percentage of the population who actually who actually do get down to the grounds. there's too many other distractions...

Enjoy your team

Having tried to weigh this bad gate up. I come to conclusion that these factors have conspired against us. (1) Approx I hr before kick off was very heavy rain,( stanley have had many games rained off in the past,) (2) Rovers game was on T.V. (3) Bank Holiday. (4) The Cost.
