Well we sold out our initial allocation and are apparently close to selling out the additional now.
Show a bit of excitement Holden! The game's only 3 days away and you don't even sound like you've ripped your shirt off yet.
b&w
I bet you all think that Sreve Kean is the messiah at moment?
Great to hear Muamba is getting better
Unfortunately, that is where the respect ends. Big game on Saturday and I hope we win. We are on a good run at the moment, scoring goals and more importantly keeping clean sheets. Let’s hope it continues.
I must ask Bolton fans; do you think the Muamba incident will have any impact on the Bolton players? Will it galvanise them? Is it a distraction? As a player, how big a loss is he?
"I bet you all think that Sreve Kean is the messiah at moment?"
Who is Sevre?...
Only reactionary fools get excited by results on a weekly basis. The bigger picture for Rovers is that this terrible season is finally showing signs of improvement and long may it continue at the Breezeblock.
Lots at stake on Saturday and with respect to Fabrice Muamba, football goes on. The game is going ahead, so lets try our best to focus our attention on that.
I hope the management, the fans and the players use Fabrices condition to good affect, but it is important that we don't lose sight of the real goal - to beat Blackbrun Rovers.
Ive told you im wearing it with pride.....
ive weakened the seams though to tear it off if NRC scores again!!!
COYWM!
Have Bolton actually confirmed it is definitely going ahead? I hope so.
Obviously it is fantastic news that Muamba is evidently through the worst of things and looks set to make a full recovery. I was actually out in Bethnal Green on Saturday night close to the Chest Hospital, cycle through there everyday and live close by so been following his progress closely.
Back to the match at hand, we are equally facing each other at a bad time. Very poignant afternoon for all concerned at Bolton, Coyle, fans and players will certainly be spurred on to win for Muamba.
But also they are facing a very confident and in form Blackburn, we are defending well, still scoring plenty and plenty with a lot of confidence.
We also know that a draw for us represents a decent result, think the pressure is firmly on Bolton to win the game and given our points cushion currently I think we can relax and capitalise on the pressure they will be under.
I've also been pretty deadly with my predictions of late and prior to the Wolves game I said we'd win our next 3 to effectively see us safe.
I'm settling on 1-2 or 1-3 to Rovers, depending on how much Hoilett decides to embarrass your defence...
The Olsson twins will bamboozle your defence.
"Lets beat the attendance set against Leicester 9 years ago."
Aaah remember that game well. What we'd do to have a striker like Sir Les of Ferdinand in our squad these days eh. Hope you fill the place if it goes ahead on Saturday - I think your players and especially your manager deserve an almighty ovation for the way they've acted over the past few days.
I bet you all think that Sreve Kean is the messiah at moment?

NOPE! Although I just about no longer consider him a very naughty boy.
Mary Kate and Ashley Olsson......like the Nevilles but better
I think pretty much Blackburn are safe now. With their fixtures I think QPR are down and it'll come down to Wolves and Bolton, and given Wolves' form I'm quite hopeful.
I can see us doing well in this match too. I think the Muamba situation will throw Blackburn a bit off their game and give us a boot up rear. Not saying this is a fault of Blackburn, but I can see all the pre-match hype about Fab and the minutes applause leading to the Blackburn players sympathizing with our cause a bit. This could throw them off the game.
I agree with Woody..i think the Blackburn players will almost stand off a little bit due to sympathy.
The bwfc players will be feeling positive after Fab's miraculous recovery. They'll want to go and win it for him, and give him a reason to smile...even though it would seem a light breeze would give that fella a reason to get his pearly whites out! haha. any excuse!
Blackburn are almost certainly safe...if im honest...i cant see QPR, Wolves or Wigan getting much more than 30 points..But i think we've got the fixtures to achieve this more...but we need to capitalise if were going to stay up!
To any concerned Bolton fans, I honestly think whatever the result of this match, we are both staying up.
Bottom 3 will finish in this order:
Wigan
QPR
Wolves
I think Bolton are safe but I wouldn't write Wigan off yet. Maybe its their size or their attendances or whatever but people write them off every season and they always surprise.
I know what you mean about Wigan, but they get closer to dropping season on season and given their fixtures I think this is their time...
No disrespect to Muamba and credit to everyone (including the supporters who offered their concern) who helped to safe his life, but why has this situation people been so over exaggerated and sensationalised? A minutes applause before the game? Seriously?
Suppose we should stop and have a minutes applause at every NHS hospital every time staff help someone after a heart attack?
If that sounds insensitive and if you are offended then I can only apologise, but I can assure you I am glad that Muamba is stable and certainly wouldn't wish for it to happen again - but this is life. There are over 7bn people on this planet and someone dies every second, and many of those doing nothing near what they love to do - many of famine and lots for reasons that we as a race of beings should be ashamed of.
Not many people giving them a thought and cheering for a minute is there?
One thing about Wigan though is their fixtures seems to have no bearing on their results. They seem to lack any sort of consistency whatsoever. They seem to be able to pull totally random victories against bigger clubs out the bag. I must admit I forgot about them in my last post, but they probably are our buggiest rival for survival.
Thing is we supposedly have easier fixtures. B'burn this week, Aston Villa after that, then Wolves. I think us staying up or going down is reliant on these fixtures. Wigan's next games are Liverpool, Stoke, Chelsea and Man U.
For me the whole Sky Sports News coverage has been nothing short of sickening.
Yes, we all wanted to know how he was doing and yes we are all glad that he seems to be recovering but do we really need reporters camped outside the hospital 24 hours a day sticking cameras into the faces of his family and friends or the ‘Breaking News’ banners telling us that he moved his fingers or said a few words.
As Diamond said, you wouldn't get this level of coverage for the average person
I find the whole thing very odd
Wigans last two fixtures are Rovers (A) and Wolves (H), need to be 6 points ahead of them before then given their finish to last season
Dusty <clap>
I honestly did pray for Muamba, Not just tweeted a pointless hashtag but actually did. Glad he seems to be out of the woods, 23 would be no age to go, but indeed, lots of people die every day, and think a minutes applause should be reserved for those we have lost otherwise where's the poignancy and the real show of affection or loss
Very True Diamond Dust. Total respect to the guy and everything, his family also, the medics, but alot worse things happen in the world today without a mention. its great it has brought people together etc, but what about the African child that dies of disease every minute or something daft like that, the vietnamese children still been born with weird problems due to the use of agent orange decades ago. I guess we could go on all night.
The game on Saturday could be very boring, Normally they are fairly gritty, but I think the players wont see it as the game it is. 2 - 1 to Rovers, a yak double.

The difference is, Muamba is someone who Bolton fans have a relationship with..
But we dont know about the circumstances of 7bn people. We couldnt possibly fathom the ability to synpathise with everyones problems, which is why there are a select few who we do give support to. Now there are not many people who suffer cardiac arrest in front of millions of people in the Uk and millions of people abroad at the same time...the reason for the 'exaggeration' as you put it, is that tens of millions of people will have witnessed the event and will be hoping that he is nursed back to health.
Unfortunately i think you are way off in your thoughts.
