Blackburn v Brighton is now OFF!

[Drumstick]

Don't blame you. I would be straight on the internet checking out the fixtures for another fixture. Not sure that would be top of the list, but enjoy.

It was one of the few in range that we could all decided on. I wanted brum v burnley, another wanted to go Home one suggested Northampton and one watford even palace was suggested in the udders end naturally.

[Beach Hut]

Tinpot thanks for the memories .........not angry in Blackburn :/:banghead::beer::banghead:

 

[Mancgull]

it has been lashing it down here in Manchester since early morning and the back garden is waterlogged which hasn't happened in the last few years.I was forced to give this one a miss anyway as it was my daughters birthday. hope all that travelled up have a safe journey back.

I thought that's what the commentators said during the wigan/arsenal game on ss3, but when I clicked over to ssn, the first thing I saw was the team info on the bottom of the screen talking about our injuries, so assumed I misheard. Just caght up on twitter and saw the club announcement. Surely Blackurn should have better facilities given they were in the premier league for so long.

On the plus side, another week until we play, giving bruno or calderon a chance to get fit. On the down side, I always hate it when people make a big deal about one team being more rested, because they tend to then go and lose (and we don't have a great recent record on TV).

Waterlogged pitch.

(Home team out of form)

 

[throbinson]

Just got here, f*** f*** f***

Palace. YUK who would suggest such a thing. I would have gone for BRUM. Either way it's better than going home after the effort. I am taking my lad to Stamford Bridge tomorrow. I know , I know. That is truly awful , but I promised ages ago, so I am gonna get it out of the way. Then after seeing them lose hopefully he will revert to only supporting the Albion. He is 8 , so I will let him off.

The rain has eased off over the last few hours so if its waterlogged now it would have been 10.00 this morning and they should have made a call then. Tinpot outfit.

 

[Janbha]

feel for those there or thereabouts , i suppose you could be a udders fan for the evening and stop off at selhurst on the way home

 

[The Sock of Poskett]

Great idea, Charlie on the karaoke machine, Tanno organising a game of killer and Gus at the bar with Tony's credit card.

Would have been a great idea ... but I think they flew up there. So presumably are flying back too.

 

[Drumstick]

Palace was suggested as Turkey has a mate who is a udders fan but I could have gone twice in such a short space.

Besides Watford v Forest is half way home, two teams near us in the table and Watford is our next game.

I'll take notes and email GUS.

Coventry and Leicester weren't far either.

 

[Pinkie Brown]

For those already there & in need of a football fix, as of a few minutes ago, Accrington Stanley v Plymouth is still ON. Close to Blackburn.

Hopefully, we will never play them in a league game.

 

[Blackadder]

Made the decision last night not to go. Pleased I did now. At least I will get my match ticket refunded.

If we had gone, we would have been forced to stay in Blackburn until after 5 as we had specific trains to catch (downside of cheap advance tickets).

So why did Barber call it off?

 

[Pinkie Brown]

Ten thousand holes in Blackburn Lancashire

Pedantic alert - It was only four thousand holes I believe.
