These are exciting times for the supporters of Blackburn Rovers Football Club.Yet only three years ago,Rovers were struggling against relegation to the old Third Division,when they finished 19th and were only four points from the drop. Then the combination of multi-millionaire Jack Walker's massive financial support and the sensational return to soccer of Kenny Dalglish as Rovers manager set Ewood Park alight. In 1991-92,Rovers returned to the top flight via the Play-offs and in 1993-94, in only their second season of premiership football,they closed a huge gap on Manchester United and chased them almost to the wire for the title before having to settle for runners-up spot,albeit with the promise of European football for the first time.There have,of course,been other great days in this famous club's history and as founder members of the Football League back in 1888 they have long enjoyed a high profile in the game,winning the Championship twice before World War One and the FA Cup on six occasions before World War Two. Now it appears that the glory days have returned to Ewood,and Rovers expert Mike Jackman has marked the club's debut in the UEFA Cup with 'Blackburn Rovers: The Official Encyclopaedia'.The book contains almost everything you'll ever want to know about the club - all the results, biographies of every first-teamer and every manager since those earliest League days,and literally thousands of fascinating facts concerning almost every aspect of the club's history including all the exciting changes to the structure of Ewood Park itself.A superb copy of a scarce title from this well respected football, specialist publisher.
