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 [...]

So there’s no stream to be found, I am stuck in math class, and re hashing text updates from other sites would be silly and borderline forgery. So Let us hope for the best in the mashup of a starting 11 Incey has thrown out, and I will get highlights up as soon as possible. [...]

The Blackburn Rovers U18s thumped the Liverpool U18s 4-0 this past weekend. The win set Rovers in 5th place in group C of the Premier Academy League with 12pts and a +5 goal differential. Glad to see the younger lads doing well in a group that has the like of Liverpool, ManU and Man [...]

Young Rover Martin Olsson scored the one goal last night for Rovers. Check the highlights I acquired below, it’s a pretty good link up with Fowler and a class finish. Everton out of the cup and a chance to play lower opposition in the next round? Yes please. There’s some notes and facts on the [...]

Rovers vs Hammers 1-4

Sorry for the late report but I was looking for something interesting to happen to us on deadline day, and unless Mark Bunn turns out to be the next Petr Cech, well, yeh….
Our defense is a bit of an enigma at the moment. It was shocking on Saturday in a 4-1 defeat to West Ham [...]

Full time. Rovers fall to pieces though the scoreline doesn’t tell the tale. Not flattering for Rovers, though they missed their fair hare of chances. Final, 4-1, but what else is to be expected at West Ham?

A lucky start, and I’ll take it! (w/ highlights)

Ok, so the goal was soooo offside you wouldn’t believe!
Steven Warnock’s last minute free-kick was headed onto the post by captain Nelsen who was miles offside (and hence unmarked).
Nicely for us, Andre Ooijer was on hand to tap in and secure a 3-2 victory at Everton. What a great start for the new [...]

Ince told the Lancashire Evening Telegraph: “The door is shut now. The players can’t go, full stop. Clubs are trying to unsettle some of my players.
