Wath-owl Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 4 of us going in the car. Think we could turn these over! Blackburn must be pooing it against a side that received a footballing lesson from Bury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barmyowl1212 Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 Me plus 2 other...only live five mins from the ground...I'm surprised how many other Owls fans live here. Where's everyone meeting the Fernhurst ? just across the road from the ground, open to away fans. Where is the best place to park near Motorway?

davey_wells Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 (edited) Blackburn must be pooing it against a side that received a footballing lesson from Bury. I doubt hardly any of the fellas who got a lesson from Bury will be anywhere near Ewood Park on Wednesday. I can only imagine it will be pretty much the same team as played Blackpool. Reda might be given a break so we may even see something quirky like a 3-4-3 consisting of...

I would imagine most W/ITES there on Wednesday will have also been at Bury last week as well, WTID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackburnOwl Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Where is the best place to park near Motorway? When you come off the M65 at the McDonalds junction (junction 5 i think) take alternative route to football ground its sign posted at second rounabout turn left towards a few shops and a chinese take away and theres plenty of road parking round there, alternatively theres parking on the inductrial sites near the ground they usually charge about £4 or £5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owllincoln Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Blackburn must be pooing it against a side that received a footballing lesson from Bury. That means absolutely f*** all. If we play decent and have a bit of luck we have a chance. I reckon team will be R'OD Semi Batth Beevers Reynolds Sedg Coke Semedo Palmer Madine Morrison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live in Bromley cross, on the same road as ewood park, just 5 miles further along! Parking is usually easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest intercity0wl Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 well done true fan ffs not everyone can afford to go to more than couple off home games a season never mind home and away.The reason im undeciced is because we may play a weakened side get totally wallop and waste a f##king packet in the process why do people have to come out with this poo poo.I bet every wednesday fan wishes they could travel home and away every week.I bet there are plenty in the same boat thinking will he field a side and is it worth it. F**k me the original Mr Negative, being positive and aggressive, i like it, you really are right up there with the biggest tools on here, it would not matter what team we put out, or whether we win loose or draw, as you would still see a completely different game to the majority, so yea probably would in your case be a waste of Money.

oh_weds_we_love_you Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Normally there would be no hesitation, but the team we put out for Blackpool in the last round, I'd be a bit p*ssed off paying £50 (match ticket, fuel and tea) to watch it.

Guest Bald Owl Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 (edited) It certainly did, does anybody else, find that on trips to that area, their Sat navs always takes the Motorway, yet the return Journey is always via the Woodhead, think i will end up going to this one, as its not that far, and its a few hours out for a tenner. Not when you live at Skegness! So any of you moaning about an hour journey back home, behave I have more than that for home games! Seeing as your all so close get yourselves down that theer mighty Hillsborough and get yourselves a tenners worth of action watching the mighty Owls. Me and boy will be there.

sjowl Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Has there been any indication from Megson on what sort of team will be fielded? In two minds about going. I want to tick the ground off, but I don't want to spend all that money to watch a game like I did at Blackpool. Don't mind us losing but only if we've had a proper go at it.

Guest BirdonaMaguire Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 best and worst memories at Ewood 93 in the cup was magical then 97 & 98 in the league we got mullered Remember the 97/98 7-2! The following season we won 4-1 mind. I won't be going, been to Ewood Park too many times, the last being the semi final in 2002, had to sit on their end as well, the roboriot cops weren't much fun either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oh_weds_we_love_you Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Just noticed that we only have Sflaphorpe in a league game between now and 5th September, so I would assume we'll be fielding a strong team against Blackburn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
