from their main stand

Later, watched the highlights, didn't Paul Smyth take his goal well

Cool as a cucumber Steve, an extremely good all round team performance.

Hats off to all the supporters for another magnificent turn out (1000) for such a long journey.

And one more in the main stand...

I was there in the Main stand Blackburn not selling tickets on the day for the away end

In the first half it was not looking good. Just the one serious shot. They had 3 good chances and
were dangerous on the flanks when going forward.

When we went a goal down just after half time quite frankly to me it looked all over.

Straight away we responded with venom big time and in the end we could have have won 3 or 4 one.

Our high tempo quality football was too much for Blackburn in that wonderful second half performance.

Right then lets see what we can do against a TOP TEAM. Will we cope?
