This book presents the Blackburn Rovers football club's history and the men who have made it. Since the end of the Second World War, Blackburn Rovers have fielded many former, future and current greats in their famous blue-and-white-halved shirts. Down the decades, the legendary front five of Mooney, Crossan, Briggs, Quigley and Langton, the England captain Ronnie Clayton and the dominating Derek Fazackerley have been recently joined in the Blackburn hall of fame by such greats as Brad Friedel and Alan Shearer. However, this book will also remind Rovers fans of some of the men who featured in other glorious moments in the club's history. Tim Flowers' performance against Newcastle on 'VE Night' in 1995 and Matt Jansen's goal to set Blackburn on their way to victory in the League Cup final of 2002 are memories that are sure to bring a smile to the face of any supporter. They, along with every played to have played for Blackburn Rovers since 1945, are profiled in this remarkable book. Meticulously researched, with full career details for each entry, this is the definitive book on the Rovers' post-war history.
