FA Cup Round Three Preview - Blyth Spartans AFC & 4th Round Draw
By: Jimmy |Well the Rovers take a trip to Blue Square North Blyth today to take on the Spartans in the definition on a banana peel game. Currently in 21st out of 22 places, they’re three points shy of the safety spot at 19th. The Rovers’ staff knew just about as much as I did, and [...]
The Silly Season Starts
By: Jimmy |Some headlines or you to chew on about some recent going ons at Rovers. Santa is still with us for the time being while we have had a few outings. And a big yay for Sunderland who knocked Notlob from the cup today.

Santa Cruz expecting bid by City??(Guardian)……but then is happy [...]
Blackburn 2-2 Man City, Another 2 Points Dropped
By: Jimmy |A heads up and alert shot by Benni Mac and a sweet header from Jason Roberts wasn’t enough to down Manchester City this past Sunday. A late collapse and total lapse of confidence saw a poor clearance capitalized on and marking taking a back seat while Robinho waltzed home. Samba summed it up well when [...]
A Letter to Jason Roberts w/ Highlights
By: Jimmy |Dear Jason Roberts,
KILL YOURSELF! The worst miss in the history of misses. Un-effin-believable. 2 points dropped but a point is a point and hopefully this will put us well on our way to getting out of the drop zone. Read some more after the jump.
Happy Holidays from the Blackburn Offside!
By: Jimmy |Whatever you calibrate from the Solstice to the New Year, happiness and fortune to all of you this season! And while this picture might be out of date very soon, a little cheer and a laugh is never a bad thing.
Right, well onto a quick summary of some Rovers news:
Big Sam has let Mr. Arsenal [...]
Dream Start for BFS; Rovers 3-0 Stoke W/highlights
By: Jimmy |Big Sam’s start to his managerial career at Rovers could not have started better as a brace from Benni Mac and a poached goal bullet from Jason Roberts led the Rovers to almost an assured victory inside the first 27 minutes at Ewood Park on Saturday.
Blah Blah Rovers 1-3 L’pool blah
By: Jimmy |Well, what do you know. We played great for an hour, and we were, in fact, the better side in the first half. Then the magicical hour mark comes around and slowly, surely, and predictably we melt away. Enter Paul Ince:
” There was some good things to take away from the lads performance. We played [...]
What is going on? Please, let me know
By: Jimmy |I don’t even know what to write anymore. Blogging at the Offside has become not the most happy of occasions seeing as there is nothing positive to report. Tevez just ran a muck on us yesterday as we were thrown out of the Carling Cup and onto our backsides into a dark alley to be [...]
Rovers 2-3 Pompey; A Game of Goals, Missed Chances, and Blown Calls
By: Jimmy |The first half was just terrible. I dont even know if we can call that football. Whatever.
Then someone lit a fire under Pompey’s asses. And Rovers weren’t ready. 2 goals later the game looked hopeless. Had it had been the Rovers of a few years ago or even last year, it probably would have been. [...]
Rovers 0-1 Spuds. Where Do We Go From Here?
By: Jimmy |So I’ve been thinking all day about what to write here. My post may appear late but it wasn’t due to time negligence it was more to do with being overwhelmed with disbelief. The picture sums up the biggest event of the afternoon, Olsson’s red in the 39th. And from there, we just couldn’t capitalize [...]
