Blackburn Rovers v Aston Villa first 11 fans into the ground Pre-Match Thread

[pauliewalnuts]

It would be typical Villa to win this 4 or 5 nil.

I was thinking that aswell.

This will be the game where everything clicks and we stroll to victory when hardly anyone wants that to happen!

I had exactly this conversation with someone at work today.

I shall be betting on us winning by four clear goals.

Its Blackburn, we always win, even if we try not to.

0-3 Kirk Douglas hattrick.

Any ideas for the best place for street parking and pubs for food and a tipple.

I got busted street parking, there's an away fan pub at the back of the Darwen end, or at least there used to be.

Thanks.
Looking at their web site there are 3 car parks at the ground, i just think it would be a mare getting away.

I heard on Sunday that pub has closed down. Could be wrong.

Emergency loans to bring back Hodge, L**cott and Peter Enckelman. That should do the trick. Own-goal hero Richard Dunne would be the icing on the cake.

Wouldn't surprise me, it seems like 90% of the pubs in Blackburn have shut down.

Would mods please consider changing the title of this thread to remove any sexism.

Also remove mention of the under 11's. Otherwise we could have the Yew Tree plod feeling our collars.

I found it to be a bit childist.

Thought that this kind of pedantic comment might come up. Ask yourself, is sexism a thing? Is childism a thing?

Do they have 5,000 rooms available for Saturday night?  I'd like one overlooking the pool please.

Without wanting to politicise this of course it is, there are plenty of examples of it.

On topic I'd rather see Bruce take this as an opportunity to do something about the performances than anything else.  If that means we win and Blues stay up then so be it.  The most important thing is us being ready to ensure promotion next season.  When we're comfortably in the top 2 none of us will care if the blues are stinking out the bottom half of our league or the top half of the one below.
