Rovers on July 19th
 

I talked to some of the 'Ewood Blues' before the England game last saturday and they mentioned they were taking a coach to Accy for the friendly on the 19th July. They also mentioned it was all-ticket for the Rovers end(s). Does anybody know if it is pay on the gate for Stanley fans?:confused: all will it be all-ticket for everyone?

there taking a coach from blackburn to accy......?

Re: Rovers on July 19th
 

Typical Blackburn numpties!! A bloody coach from Blackburn to Accy!! Have they yet to start a public transport system in Blackburn?

Re: Rovers on July 19th
 

Don't forget they don't get out much, this is the team that took just 175 fans to Goodison park, 40miles. :D

Re: Rovers on July 19th
 

Better off hiring a coach, it will ensure all 50 of them get to the match at once instead of a few at a time getting off public transport :rolleyes: :)

Re: Rovers on July 19th
 

50!? Christ, they've crawled out of the woodwork since getting into Europe!!

Re: Rovers on July 19th
 

Its 40 really plus 1 driver and 9 child minders :rolleyes:

The 'coach' mentioned was for the 'Ewood Blues' - which are Rovers fans from 3 local pubs (the Ewood Arms, the Fox and Hounds, and the Aquaduct) - not from the club itself - who I'm sure will be running their own coach(s). At a guess I would say around 2-3,000 Rovers fans will be there on the 19th. They are mostly very pleased that Stanley are back in the League and am looking forward to visiting the ground - for most it will be there first visit.

Its also good news - for them anyway - that Stanley and Rovers will be at home on alternative saturdays (thats when Rovers kick off at 3pm on a saturday! - so they can watch both.:not_ripe:

You still dont get our point do u? Is there really a need for a coach from blackburn to accy?? Public transport never crossed your mind will be a lot cheeper :)

Re: Rovers on July 19th
 

I doubt they will watch both as its not gonna be so cheap next season..

When we won the Unibond the team did a lap of honour at ewood park and the tannoy man encouraged blackburn fans to go along to our following night match game... which I thought was very good of BR to do..

Re: Rovers on July 19th
 

I seem to remember when Stanley played Crewe at Ewood we had special buses and coaches on. Still the same distance I think.

Re: Rovers on July 19th
 

I'm sure that many will use public transport - the bus and train - some will go by taxi and some will travel in organised coaches, like the Ewood Blues. What is most important is for them to just go and fill the ground up to capcity:)
