Samba would own whoever plays up front tomorrow (Looking at you, Louis), so I hope he doesn't play. Dann is good, but lacks pace a bit. Not that that matters, last week was the first time in forever I've seen us play a decent through ball, doubt we'll see two in two weeks. Great write up Chico, possibly one of the best.

The team should be:

Howard
Nev Duffy Heitinga Baines
Donovan Fellaini Gibson Drenthe
Anichebe Vellios

Cheers for the nice comments lids, I never take them for granted.

Anyway onto the burning subject in this thread; olives. The rules are simple.

i - You hate them until you're 23 and try them on holiday in Greece while munching on a Greek salad.

ii - You swerve them for a couple of years back home still as you're convinced the ones in Greece are different.

iii - You try them aged about 28 and then find that you can actually tolerate then.

iiii - By 30 years of ages you'll actually go out of your way to eat them as your taste buds have fully reached puberty.

I'm 24 and olives are ace now. I like them best either pitted with garlic or jalapeno. Awesome food.

I'd feed a couple to the Yak. That would put him off his game. Oh and buy him one of those chicken hats.

Also would mock his trabs.

That's always got to be done.
 
What a lovely place this is. Full of enlightened, friendly fans and a healthy respect for your competitors. However it does seem as though one or 2 of you have misunderstandings about aspects of the club I support. Perhaps I can try to explain:

1. Blackburn's team is rubbish - In the last decade we've won the League Cup, finished in the top 6 twice, the top half 5 times and have had 4 european campaigns. This in spite of having by far the biggest net deficit spend on players of any of the established top flight teams.

2. Blackburn the town is rubbish - The town centre has undergone huge regeneration in recent years and a new shopping centre, market, offices and and cafe areas have been built. It is also a beacon of multiculturalism, having the highest asian ethnic percentage of any town in England whilst managing to avoid the race riots seen in Burnley and Oldham a decade ago.

3. Our fans are simple/deluded/mean - Not too simple to regularly have the lowest arrests of any team in the league each season (along with Fulham) and not so deluded that our average attendances dropped below 19,500 the last time we were relegated to the Championship. Mean? To a manager with a league win percentage of 18.4%, whose been kept in a job for 49 games, despite nearly relegating us last season and probably relegating us this? You lot would sit on your hands and accept it would you?

Welcome mate. I thought it was bang on some of the stuff that was said about you in fairness.
