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 [...]

Well, that little confusion I had in yesterday’s blog has seemingly been cleared up. At work today I got a twitter alert from @OneRovers saying that our boy Nikola aquired his work permit, and they did not lie. Upon getting home today the article on the Offish site was up and, wallah, we have a [...]

Sam praised the first XI against CD Nacional, but was quick to point out that the lack of goals was [...]

So we’ve all seen the reports and heard the rustle, and now the the flurry of hopes and magnificent dreaming have calmed down, we can look at this a little more objectively.
Big Sam has come out and said he would like to sign Ruud van Nistelrooy from Real Madrid. Seriously? Maybe. A declaration of our [...]
Rovers Come Back From the Dead: Good Guys 2-1 Fulham w/highlights
By: Jimmy | 5 Comments
First off, apparently, the game was played in the dark ages because there are not highlights anywhere right now. Not even Fox Soccer Report had them. SO I’m hoping SSN will have some up and they’ll be out by tomorrow.
