For a club that have been League champions three times and won the FA Cup six times, a cup quarter-final is not that big a deal, really.

I'm sorry GR, but I am NOT having that! (if you're being serious that is). That turn-out is very poor, no matter how you try and dress it up. And when were those six FA Cup wins anyway? During the Norman Conquest when most clubs had to put out scratch teams because their regulars players were away shooting arrows at the French?
We shouldn't gloat being in the fortunate position we find ourselves in. Cast your mind back to the mid nineties when Bill Archer was the owner.He was despised much like the Venky's are now. We were getting extremely poor crowds at the Goldstone due to people boycotting the club. Much like Blackburn fans are doing now. If/when the Venkys sell up and Blackburn regain some form the fans will return.
Blackburn is a fairly deprived area, I'm not surprised their crowds have dropped off so dramatically tbh, a team that can attract reasonable crowds when they are doing well but tend to drop off when they revert to being fairly average.
Fair play to them. Voting with their feet against scumbag owners. They should be commended. All you cussing them off hang your heads in shame and go join the clueless queue.
