How does the flag surf across empty seats?

They can probably manage to get four of them holding a corner each.

With the money issues they have it is very brave running the risk of a false advertising claim being filed against them.

They are probably better off not getting to ambitious with the size and maybe going for something more akin to a hand towel

Nice flag.

It should fill up plenty of empty seats.

Roverrrrrrs fans are as we know, completely deluded. I'll wait for an early win for them, resulting in them getting giddy and promoted by October.

I was going to say no doubt will be used to cover the now well mothballed seats in the Blackburn end upper tier.

They opened it for the first time in years for one game last season. Their cup final.......


Oh how we laughed....

I don’t know whether the crowd behind the flag are supposed to be at Ewood or not, my suspicions were raised by the lack of empty seats, but where ever it is they’ve replicated a number of fans in different poses to make it look full. If you look down the left hand edge of the main block of fans you’ll see the same set of people repeated about four times!

...and they'll never see it again.

30 years on, it's all they've got left, any fans under 35 , about half the population, won't remember it anyway.

To be fair, that one’s true. We’ve never seen our bitterest rivals dance around our home ground after winning the league right in front of us. Stick that on a flag.

We should get one. No, in fact 2 flags, with Zian waving his shirt like a corner flag, ON A FLAG.

Then Zian should wave that flag on top of a corner flag and we should have a picture of that made up into a flag.

Ha ha I thought you were taking the Mick but you're right, one weird looking bloke in (what looks like a) a grey v neck with a dark top under it is spattered everywhere. How embarrassing.

BBC Sport Championship predictions has them finishing 23rd...just above Sheff Wed. An unhappy paper thin squad with further mutinies likely and revolting supporters. Not all roses at Sheff Wed either ;)

They might surprise a few. I saw the friendly against Everton in the hope that they would be awful but, unfortunately, they looked quite good. They actually looked fit and closed Everton down at every opportunity. They have sold Brittain since, who I think is a decent full back, but they have replaced him with...... no idea as I haven't heard of him.

As cracking a day it was, Notts, let's be honest. Nobody gives a shite who won the Championship title, do they? It really is forgotten about the next day and doesn't even cause a ripple in the football world. If you were to go around asking football fans 'who won won the Championship in 2016' how many could tell you off the top off their heads? Winning a serious domestic trophy, that people will remember and talk about forever. I think I'd prefer that.

Exactly what I said a couple of weeks back, Commy. People are writing them off and talking about relegation. The BBC has them down as finishing 23rd, yet they are playing an intense style of play which is going under the radar. Really quick, pressing game which is likely to catch a few out this season. Quite possible tomorrow at West Brom. No danger of promotion, but not relegation candidates either, I don't think.

Come on Hutchy, new season, new start. Just admit you're a Rover's fan. I think you're safe.

Ask anyone outside of Blackburn who won the Premier League in 1995 and most won't remember.

Can't tell if you've picked another year Burnley won it on purpose there...

Look who's back everyone, just in time for the new season. That weird bloke who will spend the next few weeks stating he's a Claret and definitely not a bturd, whilst at the same telling us who played in goal for them 1891 when they beat the Old Etonians 17 - 1.
