The dirty double dealing motor home owner would do that too! >;)
I’m like you Champs, like my football and would cheer for Rovers against many teams. As they say there’s nowt so queer as folk and all clubs have their own spectrum, some more extreme than others. I can’t see how someone can hate all Rovers fans without having met them..
No hatred from me. My dad was a season ticket holder at Turf Moor but my mum was a season ticket holder at Blackburn so I went to both grounds regularly as a kid, however, the Clarets won the battle for me --mainly because my dad could take me to more games and we occasionally used to get to away games.
Life is too short for hatred in any case.
I'm going soft in my old age, I can at least tolerate Blackeye Rovers fans now. I never could before! >:(
I go, down to my Dad and Grandad. They both went in their younger days, to Rovers one week, Burnley the next. Both had really decent sides. They told me it was quite common. So I was brought up not really understanding the pure hatred. Not that I went to both. I went to Bury and Rovers, as I was born in Bury, and my family are rovers fans.
Then again, have I had to endure the arrogance of Rovers fans lauding it over Burnley while they struggled, and we won the national lottery? So I do get it .....it just isn't something I personally feel strongly about. ]I'll always give as good as I get mind.
We do have some real knob heads!!! You wont need me to tell you that. I sit around quite a few in the Riverside. Clueless numpties (we have an element of our wonderful fan base that have moaned non stop about Mowbray all season?????) ...but I'm sure they exist at all clubs.
