This is what relegation scraps are like....

[Tom 13921]

Funny like, we didn't have a manager at the time

[Guest alex]

I'm just saying our circumstances are what they are, which affects the relationship. You can talk about how your different circumstances make things different for you until you're blue in the face but it wont change the fact that it is these circumstances that define us. There is no 'Blackburn Rovers' spirit that would exist if the club were transported elsewhere.

 

Your inferiority complex, perfectly illustrated by your need to come on here and failure to walk away with your fat lancashire arse dripping over the side of the plate i just handed you, is a direct result of the circumstances you just described. You dont stand out above the crowd, its not your fault, it doesnt relect that badly on you, its just who you are.

 

You're the one who cant get the most basic of insights.

We have our own set of circumstances and that defines us. We have a harder set of circumstances but we do fantastically well for a club with those circumstances. You're not the only special ones. Trust me you couldn't take our club out of Lancashire, it has a completely different atmosphere to Newcastle granted so maybe you have trouble seeing it. Sunderland are down the road, get massive crowds..not as big as yours but bigger than most, but you don't see the same hot air coming from their fans.

 

If you were more successful than us then granted, you may be able to accuse me of an inferiority complex. But feeling an inferiority complex against a side regularly referred to as a "joke club" and a "laughing stock"? Can't say I feel that.

 

You've nearly grapsed what i was saying, the comment about 'taking your club out of Lancashire' shows me you have some difficulty with higher abstract concepts. An eminent educational specialist this week just highlighted the research link between higher abstract thinking and over-use of the internet, which explains your "cliche bingo"-type thinking at the end of that post.

 

Inferior to those clubs around you btw, like Spurs fans being inferior to arsenal needing to come on here.

The clubs immediately around us are Burnley, Preston and to a lesser extent Bolton. No danger of an inferiority complex there. Bit further away are some real big guns, but although they take some of our fans they're not our fierce rivals like Arsenal and Spurs are so their success isn't a big issue to us. Pretty poor comparison really. Nice to see you're slipping in irrelevant comments into your posts to try and bulk your arguments up a bit...they may be clichés but they ring true. Other fans do have a good old laugh at your club.

 

Alex - shockingly bad argument. You as a Newcastle fan should know this as well as we do. How many did you have when you were in the footballing backwaters? Did this change dramatically when you suddenly got promoted and did really well? Success changes the numbers you get pretty instantly, right now we're at a fairly standard level of crowds for the success we're having. If you won the league you'd suddenly have a hugely increased demand for tickets, if you spend a couple of seasons in the Championship I'll be very surprised to see you come close to selling out SJP.

Are you in the footballing backwaters now like?

And we had relatively shit crowds when everybody else did - in the 80s. Compare our crowds to other teams from the same seasons rather than now.

he went partly because of his failings, but mainly because he wasn't Ashley's man. Obviously if he was doing the business on the pitch, Ashley would have kept him, it's hard to justify trading relative success for uncertainty, but Allardyce was taking us down and doing it fast.

 

Blackburn fans telling us how football should be played? and Using Allardyce as a benchmark? That is a fucking joke. They've not played good football in years, I can't remember a side who were as consistently malicious as them. They've had many managers and yet still play the same gritty* football.

 

They can't fill their stadium because the football isn't entertaining, and they've come on here crowing about their league position. That's like celebrating coming 2nd at the paralympics.

You called The Fish because you have a memory like one??

 

6 (very easy) points off you this year - you had, wait for it, 1 shot on goal against us at Sid James Park.

47000 on against Portsmouth and all you could hear on tv was 311 Pompey fans singing - it must have been really entertaining.

You're going round in circles. You brought up Man U and Liverpool's proximity as reasons for people in your area not supporting Blackburn and now you dont compete with them for fans, only with Burnley etc.

 

Logical reasoning at its best there, just keep shifting feet as it suits, rather than thinking clearly about whatever shit point it is you're here to make.

 

Your inability to grasp the concept that a club is defined by the place it is in, indicates to me a failure of your brain to grasp abstract concepts. Hence the topical reference. Unsurprised you cant join the dots.

nope it's because I bite like one.

I'm talking about Blackburn's M.O. not one portion of history taken out of context entirely.

bollocks, I watched the match on tv and heard us all the way up until the final ten minutes or so when it was clear the team had long since given up the ghost, and then I didn't hear anything, friends at the ground concur. By the way, your home "support" is such a joke you're in no position to even respond to a discussion about the volume of a crowd... you have a drummer for fucks sake.

Think of famous Newcastle players, how many of them are cloggers? How many of them are footballers?

 

 

Fucking Hell bp, I thought you were one of the more savvy opposition fans that come on here, but you cannot for one second claim that B'burn are anything but a second rate team, with third rate support and first rate cloggers
