Blackburn v Liverpool

I travelled 'up North' the other day to watch Blackburn host Liverpool. We arrived in the lovely Ribble Valley at about 3 pm, enough to have a lovely dinner at the Boathouse, just off the Bolton Road. I had my first taste of 'real' Thwaites Ale (renowned by Blackburn fans across the globe) and quite frankly, it was brilliant.

Onto the match itself. Well, we had Liverpool on toast for the first 70 minutes until they substituted Peter Crouch on and went route-one football. We then seemed to fall asleep for the rest of the game. Luckily Brad made some super saves, and Kuyt missed a hatfull of chances.. in the end a draw was a fair result.

My tally of live Rovers games now stands at 2 draws, 6 losses, 7 goals for, 15 against.
