Wolves Preview
By: Jimmy |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 [...]

By: Jimmy |Well finally we’re through with Sunderland.In the fifth meeting of the two sides this week in the FA Cup 4th round replay, Rovers won the last set in the match that saw the sides each take a draw and a win prior. Highlights were posted right before this, and they’re the long version so make [...]
Benni Mac- Thanks for making me feel like we won.
By: Jimmy |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 [...]
Quick Update
By: Jimmy |Okay so while we had this missing gap in time here, a few things have happened. The friendlies? Well I don’t put much, rather any, stock in them, so I’ll just say that there were some good and bad things. We still have one more left, against NAC Breda on Saturday so we’ll see what [...]

A signing!!! Yes, a signing!!!
By: David |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 [...]
I Miss Two Days and the World Ends….
By: Jimmy |…well not really at all. Two long days at the office and, my dead readers, I have much to fill you in on. It is a very busy and speculative time at Ewood Park right now though. Here is a summary for those lucky enough to have missed the whirlwind…
•Ecuadorian international Segundo Castillo is linked [...]
The pain, the pain of it all! Rovers 1-1 Man Utd (with extended highlights)
By: David |One of the comments in Jim’s liveblog was “Friedel for President” – I couldn’t agree more. Friedel has to be one of the most underrated keepers in the world, and we’ll miss him when his time is up, especially as our defence looks really shakey in recent times.
