    But why wife is an ex season ticket holder of Blackburn even though she’s from Nottingham, but gave it all up when she met me. Probably when I told her my dad was famous (I only told her afterward it was just in Barnsley) but that’s a different story.

    Anyway all her family are rovers fans. I’ve had shiz this last 2 years.

    I don’t deserve all the crap I get for making sure all my 3 kids have ended up being Barnsley fans.

    Hang in there Nutkins.

    You know you’re doing the right thing bringing up the kids in the right way. To do otherwise would rightly mean referral to Social Services.

    You might also want to remind her family that Blackburn Olympic won the FA Cup before Blackburn Rovers did.

    A deep hatred for Blackburn based on one player

    Simon f******g garner. If he played today he’d get a hat trick, and he’s as old as time itself.

    Am I dreaming of a midweek night match with John McDonald getting the winner?

    The Blackburn game is a similar derby in this house, with my wife having a season ticket at ewood until this season.

    Seen quite a bit of Blackburn, fear they might have a bit much for us today. We are still prone to a lapse of concentration at the back, and they’re scoring for fun. Armstrong is unrecognisable from the player we had on loan, and players like brereton benefiting from behind closed doors in the same way as mads is.

    Simon Garner. The man responsible for my mate getting a banning order for his abuse of the then Barnsley Manager, Allan Clarke!

    Well, maybe being 5-0 down (lucky to get nil) and having drunk 6 pints and lost £40 in a card game also contributed.
