Rovers v Burnley
 

Switched to Sunday at 1pm. Now there's a suprise :D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Could it be televised dave, or is it just to keep the Dingles in check:D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

It's live on Sky. Police said move it to Sunday so they can all have a day off with it being the day of peace ;)

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

And good will to all men:eek::rolleyes::D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

does the stagecoach run from burnley on sunday?:confused:

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

I'll be there, just went and got me Rovers Season Ticket sorted yesteday! Was changing stands so, the lad on the ticket desk very kindly took me into the ground so i could sit in my new seat to check the view before buying ticket! Pitch looking great...now all we need is a decent striker!!

Best Regards - Taggy

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Probably under police escort again, which is slightly slower than stagecoach :rolleyes:

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Here's a clip for you old boys of Rovers v Burnley from 1952...ah the old days, no roof, pitch invasions...steel toe cap footy boots and the ball weighed a ton! :D (and a massive crowd)
British Pathe - SPECIAL - 6th. ROUND F.A. CUP - BLACKBURN V BURNLEY

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Thanks for that Mancie, I was there. :)

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

did you invade the pitch Roy?.. made me laugh.. the Rovers goalie is wearing a flat cap!:D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Didn't invade the pitch but I had a flat cap..............with a scholl badge on it.................Paid sixpence and was carried from the back of the stands on the riverside to the front over the heads of the adults to the benches round the pitch.

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

cheers mancie, nice one.:)

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Nice one Mancie, wasn't there for that match but was there when we played the Dingles in 1960 on our way on the final, think the gate that night was 58,000, gates were closed 30 minutes before the kick off, won 2-0 I think after extra time, the Rovers came from 3-0 down at the Turf in the first game, I was there for that one too:D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

I might just get myself a Rovers Shirt and come to that one.

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

You can have permission, but only as long as you come to our match with Bournemouth the day before! ;)

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Just out of interest, why were there so many dingles down Manc today?

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Sky Masters competition at GMEX

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Right, cheers, mate. Who else was in it? The only other shirts I saw were Oldham Athletic.

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Group A
Burnley
Barstewards
Bolton

Group B
London Reds ;)
Man City
Oldham

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

What is the Sky masters comp?

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Saw a few City and United shirts, but that goes with the territory. Didn't see any other colours though. Wonder where the others were?

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Heard a rumour that some Rovers fans who bought cut price season tickets for the Darwen End and may have to give up thier seats for Burnley supporters! :D .
Burnley are set be allocated around 6,000 tickets for Ewood, but Rovers will only get about 2,500 for Burnley, beacause half the away end at Turf Moor is held by Burnley season ticket holders! :D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

They knew when they bought them that they had to give them up for the big 4 teams :D

Is it not 7,000 ? ;)

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

I heard it was 7,500 Dave.. but didn't want to wind up the Rovers bods to much!:D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

i wish they'd give em 10.000, it would mean another 2,500 as sick as pigs.:D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

:D but what do you reckon on the paltry 2,500 ticket allocation for Rovers at Turf Moor Cashy?..gonna be lots of Rovers missing what could be their biggest game of the season!

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

true that is crap but i live by the saying - theres few things in life as contempible as tories - but DINGLES is one of em.:D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

now cashy behave yourself,,((quote...true that is crap but i live by the saying - theres few things in life as contempible as tories - but DINGLES is one of em,unquote)),you only drew with Burnley 2/2 at Manchester
...I KNOW WE WERE THRASHED ,BUT SO WERE YOU....
Well done Oldham

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Plus you have to remember they don't get to a proper stadium that often cashy and they won't be coming again for a long time:D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

we are fuming.rival fans CANNOT be in housed in the same stand at ewood due to police advice.so burnley get 6,000 (segragation means 6,000) in darwen end on october 18th.
yet police advise is fans CAN be housed in the same stand at turf moor,so rovers fans get only 2,200.BURNLEY 16300 SEASON TICKET HOLDERS so thats around 30% chance of season ticket holders getting away ticket.ROVERS 19,000 SEASON TICKET HOLDERS ,so maybe 10% chance of season ticket holders going to turf moor..so clearly one rule for one and one rule for another...believe me we are very fuming :mad::mad::mad:

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Dont think the decision at Rovers was based on Police Advice but purely on commercial Grounds. Police advise was taken with regards to kick off times though! As it no doubt will be for the return at Turf Moor. No way will that end up being a Saturday 3pm kick off as it is still listed as! Its certainly bad news for Rovers fans at the Turf though...i'll be trying to get a ticket but it will certainly be a lottery!

Best Regards - Taggy

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

It will probably be on TV Taggy, but its no consolation

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

always look fer a positive... its better cos all the country can witness the stuffing of the dingles.:D;)

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

I wasn't going to be so cruel cashy, untl after the match:D;)

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

why couldnt it be the other way round ... you know the scumbags at ewood park being stuffed by the gods of east lancashire?:D:D:D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

WHY? cos yer DINGLES.:tongueout

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Now come on Jen, Coyle signed the Accident book on Tuesday:tongueout

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

At least the gods of east lancashire have won a game this season ....:tongueout:tongueout:tongueout against the premiership champions no less:tongueout:tongueout:tongueout:tongueout

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

its going to be a long hard season for rovers and the clampits as well.

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

but Rovers fans are mostly made up of women.. slags, tranvestites, and drunken,pis!heads..so you can't blame the East Lancs Police for not wanting them to bring down the good name of Burnley.

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

played 3 games ... lost 1 .. WON 2 ... the gods of east lancs have done it again ..:D:D:D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

AHH I'm in 7h heaven!! :D:D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Hull had a great start last term.:D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

And stayed up ;)

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

theres no way on this earth that the cricket field stand will house us and them when we play at turf poor !!

they are being rehoused in other parts of the ground, just like at rovers !!

by the way, good start, enjoy it whilst it lasts !!!...:rolleyes::rolleyes:

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

As far as I know the season tickets were not sold on the proviso of having to move for any game. The entrances are on opposite sides of the ground and the segration section is quite a few rows. In reality the home fans in there are no nearer the away fans than the lower longside was to the corner of the cricket field stand.

It will really depend on the police pressure :rolleyes:

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Seems there is now some back tracking going on regarding the Darwen end and Burnley fans will have a reduced allocation of about 3,000 in the Jack Walker. Allegedly in a tit for tat move to make the allocations at both grounds similar.

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Seems fair to me Dave:rolleyes:

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

burnely 2 rovers 0

Re: Rovers v Burnley

Re: Rovers v Burnley

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Now confirmed officially as 3,000 away tickets for October and 2,400 away tickets for the return game. Can only be booked with coach travel, and rumour is that the actual tickets will only be given out on the coaches

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Blackburn 4 - 1 Burnley - Behind close doors friendly that took place yesterday ;).

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Oh eck, a 4-1 win and still the same gap in the league :p

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Put your money where your finger is. .....fancy a bet Davy boy?

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

No amount of money will change the current league position, I live for today ;)

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Well said Dave..........you have saved yourself a few bob. :)

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

amen to that

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Not long until we welcome the Dingles to Ewood now. Bring it on!

We've played them four times in my life - won three, drawn one. Scored nine and conceded a solitary goal. Keep up the good work Rovers!

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Welcome ??? Are you sure you chose the correct word :D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Well, maybe not much of welcome!

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Shooooooosh NM the Dingles can get really touchy:D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

I'm used to them infesting the Rovers forums', it's OK - they suffer from an inferior complex! Not surprising though, they've been in our shadows for over 20 years.

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

just returned from holiday to see the offical allocation of away tickets and i think it is fair.
reports of rovers getting 2100 and burnley getting 7,000 were wrong.thank god.
Rovers people getting 2400 tickets at burnley,odds of rovers season tickets holder going burnley away is 8-1..
Burnley getting 3,000 at blackburn away,odds of burnley seasons ticket holder getting ticket to ewood is 6-1.
they get less but percentage,better,yes

is fair..simples

i am typing in croatain accent because ive just got back from there.
havla (thanks you) :thankya:

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

I like being called a Dingle.....even the Dingles in Emmerdale are united in crime,,,,,:D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Ya GC but the Dingles in Emerdale are born losers:D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

and i can quite honestly see the dingles STEALING a win :D...:o

to be fair rovers have been playin well, but we couldnt score in a brothel and goals win games !!!

simples !!...:o

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

According to certain football messege boards,accrington is where hundreds of burnley fans (a lot from burnley) are going to get ****ed all day and watch the game in pubs(stanley/calder etc ) and then cause some aggro..i suppose at the reverse fixture it maybe the same with blackburn not getting away at burnley tickets and coming over .. what i mean is maybe avoid accy centre after rovers v burnley game :)

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

What a load of bull.

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

sounds like business as usuall.. not sure about "hundreds" but always been the same in Accy when Rovers and Burnley play each other..afterall it's the only chance they get to have a scrap...
if they tried it on with any another Prem teams supporters they'd both get a good hiding..:D:mosher:

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Well it would be too far to go to scrap with United fans, 500 mile round trip to London ain't worth it:D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Posted via Mobile Device I didn't expect anything different! I will be out in Blackburn celebrating three points.

I1

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Details announced today for tickets and coach travel. Coaches leave Turf Moor at 9.15 am !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why don't they just let the mindless morons from both clubs arrange a big punch up somewhere remote and where no damage to property can be done ( middle of Darwen ? ) , and treat the remainder ( the majority ) of fans from both clubs like civilised human beings :(

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Why Darwen?
Mid way point like the Coppice would be more like it and with your undoubted attributes you could be mediator and referee....Set a stall up with your brick a brack.........you might make a few bob.....but as a bit of advice to a friend...dont leave T Shirts unattended. :)

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

It's Blackburn's home match :)

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

plus darren would be much better, cos more "Cells" in blackburn nick than Accy.:D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Ya and near the hospital too cashy:D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Got the T shirt ??

http://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk...Burnley_derby/


Wonder what lancsdave'll make of this ?

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

8 years to think of it, you've got to admit the marketing department is on the ball :D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Not quite up to the Tevez 'Welcome to Manc' poster but it's not a bad effort :)

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

If we win in a couple of weeks time I will have a shirt on sale within 8 minutes :D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Just goes to show the desperacy ..... they have to rely on the clarets to sell their shirts :rolleyes:

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

old news .. but..why stop the fans from travelling to a game in their own cars etc for fear of trouble, yet decide to sell stupid and inappropriate out of date shirts that will only help stir up more animosity !!

excellent thinking rovers !!! NOT !!!....same old rovers, money money money !! no wonder i gave up going !!

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

I think thats the issue. If a local t-shirt shop or some fanzine had started selling the t-shirt it wouldn't have made the news, the fact that it's been done as official merchandise has created the storm.

Personally I think the fact they have dragged up after all this time makes it more hilarious than offensive. A few days after the original match might have been better timing :)

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Are they on sale on your stall yet dave;)

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

In comparison with the likes of Arsenal Spurs Chealski, I think Rovers do quite well with the fans, they have the cheapest season tickets and we don't have to give them away for free:rolleyes: but as for T-Shirts I still think The Plane is the best:D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

We don't sell Bog Roll :p

By the way it's a shop now :)

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

A shop, things are looking up mate, must have missed the move:D Where are you now

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Next door but one to the bogs, but we still aren't going to sell bog roll :D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

:rofl38::rofl38::rofl38::rofl38::banane58::banane5 8:

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

On local football messege boards a few burnley fans saying they have paid loads to get tickets for jack walker stand,the posh end to be safe !!
not blackburn end though then i notice ? where we could give them a clip round the ear :bootyshak

very brave

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Strange, the message boards say they have got tickets for various parts of the ground, not just the FJ stand. Seems you don't read the threads you post on properly :D

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

This won't cause any bad feeling really, will it?

:mad:

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

There's a different image here.

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

No there isn't its blank:D ah its appeared sorry AccyJay

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

at night, nobody about, BRAVE MAN !!

id like to see the thick inbred barstool try it on sunday
:knife::thefinger:fire:

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

where you dig these up from jay ? :confused:

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Re: Rovers v Burnley
 

Looks like 1-1 in the looking stupid stakes to me. A couple of clowns playing fancy dress and an official club shop taking 8 years to come up with a t-shirt. Next own goal loses :)
