Blackburn Season Ticket 209 pounds

RATM

Was just over in the Lake District today and heard an ad on local radio, Blackburn are selling season tickets for STG209, the ad said it works out at 11 pounds a game.

Sounds like a bargain for the neutral who just wants to watch Premier League football for a cheap price. There's also good access from a number of airports in that area of England.

Great value - purchased a Rovers season ticket last year and it was a great purchase! I'm not a rovers fan, but I still got to see all the big teams play, and with cheap ryanair flights booked in advance its a bargain! Il buy another one, whenever I return to the green green grass of home!!

Having said that - the mighty rovers are playing in Sydney this summer! GO ON FAT SAM

Which airport did you use and how long does it take to get to Ewood from it ?

Manchester, train to Bolton, then train to Blackburn. Approx 1 hour 40 mins to Blackburn from Manchester, you can get lucky and make it in an hour sometimes. Ewood Park is no distance from the train station.

You couldn't have 'awaited' it in silence?

Im seriously confused as to why someone would spend a couple of hundred quid, plus flights/food/etc to sit with fans of a team they dont support in order to watch the Sky Sports 4.

Surely that money would be better spent on whatever club you do support? Be that and English club or not?

Well there are some fans out there who consider themselves neutral and just want to watch quality football played by quality players.

I myself support Liverpool but because my g'friend lives in London I have actually been to White Hart Lane and the Emirates more often than Anfield- I don't mind who is playing- I just want to see an entertaining game. You may not get that a whole lot with the Blackburn team but this season ticket offers the opportunity for the neutral to go to Premier League games for 11 quid a pop.
For those who just want to watch good football its an attractive option

Exactly!! It's premiership football and its great craic at the games. And believe me, it works out very cheap. The most expensive flights we purchased we Ryanair return were under 40 Euros - nothing! We had a couple for under 10 Euros return. And we use to fly into any of the following airports and rent a car - Liverpool, Leeds, Manchester. With a car its less than 1 hour from each and between the 4 of us each weekend worked out very cheap. Fernhurst hotel across the road from ewood - 55 sterling a night and thats a room with 3 beds, ensuite, sky sports AND the official away supporters club,

Its a weekend away with the lads watching premiership football, for approx 100 Euros including flights, car rental, match ticket & accomodation. I dont understand people not understanding us! Best deal going

They would have to pay me to watch them play every week.
