Proper football returns to us this weekend around the world and, more importantly, at Ewood Park as the Blackburn Rovers take on the Wanderers of Wolverhampton in the fourth league game of the season.
I’ll be honest here; this is a must win game. After this game we have league games against Everton and Villa, with [...]

So the big news today is Stephen Warnock is now a member of Aston Villa. On the replacement side, as soon as the door was hitting Warnock’s rear, a Mr. Pascal Chimbonda has moved in. A little case of the old switcheroo, and I’m not too upset. Here’s why…

Rovers had their first taste of defeat under new boss Big Sam Saturday after going down 2 nil at home to now 3rd place Aston Villa. I had a bad sort of feeling that they were gonna hop on us and they did with Big Sam admitting that Villa were the better side. This defeat [...]

Now, this isn’t directed at you, the fellow fans/readers or myself or even the club necessarily. However, over the last week I have found myself confused as to why I am happy when we draw.
Why is it that when Keith Andrews struck in the dying minutes of the game(with a great shot I might add) [...]

So, first off. And I’ll say it, I’ll say it once, and I don’t want to have to say it again. Tuncay’s goal was onside. But it was called off, and that kind of stuff happens all the time. End of.
That being said, Rovers dominated the first hour of this match. Boro had some chances [...]

BRFC have officially announced today the signing of the 28 year old goal keeper from Spuds. It was a reported £3.5m deal that will see Robbo at Ewood Park for five years. No word yes about what wages he will be on.
Sadly, this will be the beginning of the end for the time of Big [...]
A signing!!! Yes, a signing!!!

Only problem is, I know pretty much nothing about him.
And unless you’re a South American reader (or world football anorack), you probably don’t either.
However, what I do know has excited me somewhat. His name is Carlos Villanueva (no, not the Brewers pitcher…), a 22 year old Chilean, and he has come from Audax [...]
