Blackburn away

[Guest lcfc80]

Now been moved to the Friday night to be on Sky. FFS, this has annoyed me as was planning on taking my nephew to his first away game then

[Fox92]

One of my favourites, shame they've moved it.

 

Usually get a good allocation there so should be alright running down priority.

[SemperEadem]

This could easily be one they open up to general sale. I mean it won't happen.

Damn. Was targeting this one to tick off the 92.

 

Will think about treating my girlfriend to a weekend in Blackburn.

It is, but its a good ground to get ticked off. 

 

I don't think they have done much to it even since I last went which we lost 5-3 sometime in the late 90's so will kind of have an old school ground type feel to it

[goody2028]

Allocation we expecting for this one?

The ground is fine I was referring to the town.

I can’t remember if it was the 1-0 Rooster Russel or 4-2 Kevin Campbell game

but the guy stood next to me was jumping up and down so much after we scored 

he broke his leg and was carried out on a stretcher.

We had a few good wins there in the 80's and 90's.  0-2 (81-82), 2-4 (89-90), 0-1 (91-92) and 2-4 (96-97).

The best one was the 91-92  game.  Vital promotion match, 5000 away fans, 75th min goal.   Rooster walking the ball into the net for the only goal.

I've never jumped up-and-down so much celebrating a goal, before the ball was actually in the net.   An amazing goal in front of the away fans.

Was there for Vardy's first goal in a 2-1 defeat. I'm in Manchester that weekend anyway so gonna do this.

Yeh same, few trains going for £4 which seems very reasonable! 

[KrefelderFox666]

[KrefelderFox666]

I would imagine ticket prices to be around £25 for adults (based on their previous games).

 

Would also imagine the allocation will go up if there is demand for it. We will get as many as we need.

[adejo92]

Friday night, presumably broadcasted,  likely to make all STH's?

If we do sell the initial, Blackburn usually end up giving out a big allocation around 4000.

[MS0204]

Will be majorly surprised if this don’t get down to members..

Could this be moved again because of the cup tie at liverpool?
