It would be great to be in the running to get promoted, but I don't think we have a good enough set up to do ourselves justice if we did. In our previous exploits in the premier we have been ahead of the game, mainly due to the passionate running of the club. We are so far behind that situation now, and we have not even got a large pot to allow us the option of buying out of a bad situation.
    For me I would prefer us to play well this season and next in the championship.[/quote]

    It is never too soon to test the water, it is quite simple, We can never be as embarressed again as much as that clown Kean & venkys inflicted on BRFC.

    So onward and upward for me.

    See what you're saying Sax. But this set up would be a sh1t hot League 1 set up. Maybe we should target relegation and spend next season winning nearly every game.

    We ain't even in the playoffs yet. I think that the danglies are more suited to be answering this sort of question than us.

    Why not amalgamate with Burnley? The combination of the two towns' supporters would create a force to be reckoned with

    This is a serious goer...

    Take the 'Black' and 'Rovers' from Blackburn Rovers FC and the 'Burn' and 'FC' from Burnley FC to make Blackburn Rovers FC.

    Then take the blue from the Burnley shirt and the white from the Blackburn shirt and to show the unity between the two teams and the amalgamated 'Blackburn Rovers FC' can play in blue and white halves.

    Any takers?

    It's just not the same blue Bigmoon.

    Any road I'll be in the away end at home games.

    The alternative, "Burnburn", has a certain ring to it, but might be better suited to a Punk band.
    It has set me pondering on such mergers as Sundercastle, Everpool, West Birmingham Villa, Rangtic and Arsenham.
    I think Stoner might have started something.
