Wolves Preview

By: Jimmy | Comments 4 Comments

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 [...]

Rovers 1-2 Cheating Red Scum w/ highlights

By: Jimmy | Comments 3 Comments

Rovers tasted defeat Saturday but then again, who picks up points at OT? (The place where opposition penalties don’t exist.)
Aside from Ryan Nelson doing all that he could to slow down and help the ball along for Shrek, Rovers did a lot right. The 4-1-4-1 Big Sam threw out had a shaky start, but by [...]

What is going on? Please, let me know

By: Jimmy | Comments 6 Comments

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 | Comments 1 Comment

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. [...]

Role reversal; Rovers 1-2 Sunderland w/ Highlights

By: Jimmy | Comments 4 Comments

While that picture of Samba scoring that fantastic header looks great, Sunderland pulled a reversal of the midweek result by beating Rovers 2-1 at Ewood Park. This furthers the run of absolutely abysmal results at home this season and sees Rovers slip into the bottom three. Ugh. Just the two words typed together should never [...]

Rovers 0-2 Man U Highlights

By: Jimmy | Comments No Comments

Out played. Out classed. Lazy and unmotivated after that ridiculous first goal was allowed in. Whatever, I’m over it. A loss to Man U isn’t the end of the world but usually we go out and do a little better. I’ll do my best to keep everyone up to date about how our Rovers are [...]

Preview: Rovers vs Man Utd

By: David | Comments 3 Comments

What can you say when Manchester United are in town?
These match previews are generally filled up with thoughts about our chances, how we might improve them, and what would be the best team.
However it’s so hard to work out HOW you beat United, though interestingly, in the last 8 league matches against them, [...]

A Look At the Back Pages

By: Jimmy | Comments No Comments

Well this Monday, soon to be afternoon here on the East Coast of the States, has found me in pretty high spirits as a Rovers supporter. Three wins in seven days has certainly left a nice after taste and I can only hope this ride up here lasts for a while. An optimistic approach I [...]

Rovers 2-1 Newcastle w/ Highlights

By: Jimmy | Comments 9 Comments

So anytime you can go to Newcastle and take away all tree points, it’s been a a good weekend. It is even better after you have beaten Everton a few days prior in the League Cup. Beating two those two, two teams that I feel are definitely a pair of our boogey sides, gives a [...]

Rovers won’t sell out!

By: David | Comments 2 Comments

From Blackburn Vital Football:
Blackburn Rovers chairman John Williams has vowed not to sacrifice the clubs proud family heritage in the quest to find a new owner at Ewood Park.
With more and more clubs being subjected to high profile takeover bids, with Manchester City being the latest as the Abu Dhabi United Group (and all [...]
