Reflections on Ewood Park to be published in due course

..

The Jack Walker Stand – the main stand at Ewood Park, named after the great benfactor who funded a Premier League winning team

..

The Darwen End – on my three County visits the home for County fans

..

The Blackburn End – an identical construction to the Darwen End

..

The Walkersteel Stand – the smallest on the ground. It had replaced the large Riverside terrace which I had seen on earlier, (non County), visits

..

Captain Fantastic, Mike Flynn, on that never to be forgotten night at Ewood. In the background is Chris Marsden, wearing the much prized ‘Romania’ shirt
