Always had a soft spot for them as my dad was born in Darwen and is home to half my ancestors. Apart from the obvious knobheads to our right, they're a decent bunch of fans and I had good chats with a decent number of them. Must be funny having lived through the Alan Shearer era and being where they are now.
I think they'll be okay come the end of the season. I am somewhat tied over the 'were they s**t, or were we too good question' will be interesting to see what happens in the next few games.
On another note did anyone else catch Pinto and Klose checking out the stadium after the whistle... probably acute paranoia, but I hope they were not thinking 'this Championship league is a bit tinpot, isnt it?'
