22:37 is this Blackburn cathedral lol some heritage in there!

Really enjoyed that. I'm from Norway, and visited Ewood in 96, 98 and 2001. Haven't been there since, but still a big fan of Blackburn. This was a trip down memory lane for me. Great trips, with my father. Rock on!

Brilliant Ry! I’ve been to Ewood Park just once, 13/4/1998 when Arsenal won The League. We beat Rovers 4-1 and Bergkamp and Anelka were on fire that day. It looks just how I remembered it in your video. I found the people of Blackburn very friendly and I loved Ewood Park as a ground. Hopefully they’ll get better ownership in the future. Good luck to Rovers.

DO SOME LEAGUE 1&2

The board room was moved during the rebuild of the new ewood park in the early 1990's Jack Walker insisted that the Manchester United and Burnley crests where put behind the door as he hates both clubs

The platform above the tunnel at 29:11 used to contain a small seating area with about half a dozen or so seats. It was where Jack Walker himself used to sit and which he accessed directly from the hospitality suite behind. When Venky's bought the club and came to their first match, they drew criticism from some supporters for sitting in the same seats (I'm not sure why, they did after all own the club and the stadium by then). Anyway, it looks like the seats have now been removed to prevent any further faux pas. I guess if they ever come back, they'll just have to slum it in the Director's Box in the upper tier!

Another great video but cherry on the cake… rassling tunes over the top of them! Very nice touch!

Haha class remixes aren’t they 😅

Got to admire the occasional miracle of smaller clubs like Blackburn and Leicester winning the league. It's a very rare feat. Hopefully, Spurs are finally on the right track!!

The club shop was built around 1999/2000 if I remember rightly. It used to be where the Blues Bar is.

I did a stadium tour of the old Ewood Park sometime in the early 80's. The Boardroom at 22:39 was exactly the same albeit it was in the old Nuttall Street stand (where the Jack Walker Stand is now). During the rebuilding in the 90's they dismantled it piece by piece and rebuilt it in the Blackburn End. Fun fact: There is nothing on the level directly above the Boardroom, because the height of the Boardroom ceiling is greater than the floor to ceiling distance on all the other internal levels of the Blackburn End stand.

Villa and Everton are founding members for both leagues

Great video as usual 👍. The mix of old school and modern in the interior and exterior is great.

Another claim for you. We are the only club in England to have won a major trophy in every century since the game’s inception.

Rovers fan here. There's been a much bigger rivalry with Burnley than Bolton historically because of where old counties were drawn and what was produced in the factories. Blackburn and Burnley were East Lancs while Bolton had more rivalry with the Manchester clubs. Also helped that us and the Dingles were more successful round the turn of the century and then the Manc clubs and Bolton more between the wars. Think the Roverstore was built in Summer 94, first time I went in was late October or November that year.

Good video. A proud old club with a rich history but currently on its knees thanks to our terrible owners. We will rise again though. #venkysout #waggottout

If the other stand was the same as the 3 new ones it would be even more spectacular

Good video ry 👍 SUNDERLAND AFC X HUMMEL 🎉🎉🎉

That thumbnail is savage 😂

Its a decent ground to be honest as player in the championship you would be excited to play here pitch looks well maintained

Hillsborough stadium is amazing it holds 39k fans but because of health and safety issues they can only sell 34k/35k fans it’s very old school stadium if you filled in the corner it would hold 45k + Blackburn stadium is impressive they need a new bigger stand so they all match

Love this channel mate, only found it a few weeks ago. You should go to stockport county tomorrow, they need one point to get promotion and you might get some good content. Plus it's a proper traditional old school lower league stadium.

My grandad secured the electric doors at Ewood park

Blackburn Rovers: The first giants of the English game. The most successful town club in the history of British football. The only club to have won the English FA Cup three times in three consecutive seasons. Blackburn v B*rnley is the oldest derby in British football. The only town football club to have won the Premier League. The only Football Club to be founder members of the Premier League and Football League and Champions of both.

It did however host the WWC final or the WEU final in around 2008 when the competition was played in Lancashire/Greater Manchester. The region was chosen because of the close proximity of so many grounds being of the size to create a good atmosphere whilst keeping the spectators safe. Women’s football isn’t my cup of tea but kudos to the Ladies for what they have accomplished so far.
