Re: Where are all the Rovers Fans?
Well let's see what happens in the next five years then eh? I personally have nothing against Burnley at all and I would be happy if they joined Blackburn in the Premier League. Many songs are a sad reflection on the fans who sing them however. It is better to sing something in praise of your own team rather than to the detrement of another. I seem to remember Liverpool fans singing a song for over three decades about a particular tragedy for a certain team at the other end of the East Lancs Road. How very sad that it took a tragedy of their own to put a stop to that.

Re: Where are all the Rovers Fans?
35 quid not worth watching for that, wouldn't it be better to be relagated then you only have to pay 20 quid? have a word with Marky I'm sure he will arrange it for next year.

When did they stop singing it, they were still singing it at the last Liverpool v Scum game.

Re: Where are all the Rovers Fans?
Sorry if youve heard em before but I can't resist putting them on here.
2 old Blackburn men working on adjacent allotments, when one of them shouts "Oooh ah feel dizzy", then keels over. The other man shouts "'Ave yer got vertigo?" To which the man on the ground says "Nay lad, ah only live round t' corner".
A Blackburn man goes to the vets with his cat. The receptionist asks him what the problem is. The man says the cat is having trouble passing water. The receptionist then says "Is it a tom?". The man replies "Nay lass ah've brought it wi' me".
Blackburner walking down Market St in town, sees a sign outside a pub that says, "Pie, pint and a woman for £1". He goes in, walks up to the bar and says to the barman, "Whose pies are they?"
A bloke goes into a DIY shop in Blackburn and says to the assistant:- I'm doing some paint stripping and I need some turps' to which the assistant replies:- 'would you like audio turps or video turps ?

Re: Where are all the Rovers Fans?
Bear in mind that Rovers crapped on Stanley as much as Burnley. They could have bought players to keep the club solvent but sat back as did Burnley & waited to get them for nowt when the club folded. Ok good business sense to take your opposition out but one day the tables will turn & stanley fans like elephants have long memories! Till then save money & come & watch a good northern club with bags of history rise & prove both clubs wrong in ther attitude to us in the past.

Well, what a great credit to Liverpool fans. I hadn't actually heard them sing it since Hillsborough, it could generally be heard throughout the televised Utd/LFC games at one time. However, I will bow to your superior knowledge of the goings on at Anfield. It's interesting that you call them 'Scum', I don't ever remember hearing them sing derogatory songs about Hillsborough.
I also notice that in your 'stats' you did not mention one of Liverpool's greatest achievements. ie. Getting all English club teams banned from Europe for five years. Quite a coup that, something no other team has ever done.
