"we never win there" 07:53 - Jan 29 with 3875 views

LythamR's comment last night about playing better than we usually do at Blackburn made me think this might be an interesting thread.

What are the grounds that you have been to/go to where before you leave you are almost resigned to the fact that Rangers will not win and also is there any ground where we always lose at where perhaps you have missed the odd occasion we have won.

For me I think that is about 5 times at Blackburn for me and just one draw to show for it. Leeds and Newcastle are also grounds where I've never seen us win.

On the second point, I was planning to go to Forest last year, having been maybe 6 or 7 times previously. Something cropped up at the last minute which prevented me from going. You know the rest.

Norwich is my unlucky ground.I’ve been loads of times and never seen us win there.I’ve had a car crash on the way there 30 years ago,I’ve been spat at by Diop up there,followed by a last minute winner for them by Roberts.
I’ve seen the wrong player sent off up there.I normally have to listen to their smug c@nting fans on the way back to the station,and on the few occasions that I’ve driven I always seem to get stuck in a big traffic queue to get out of the place.
I had my hot tea nicked off me in the 80’s because the police thought I’d throw it at their fans across the wire dividing us.
I’ve even had an accident in my lorry whilst working for the post office up there.I’m going up there today to pick up my wife’s new car so wish me luck.

I’ve also seen some brilliant bands there at the Waterfront,so isn’t all bad.

And I was too young to be there in April 1976 too.

Birmingham City. I’ve been there eight times, never won and only seen us score one goal.

I haven’t been for a few years now.......,,

Was always Spurs for me back in the day. Used to go with a good mate who is a Spurs fan, would go to our respective ends and meet up afterwards.

We never won and seeing his smug face each time was hard to take, a couple of draws as good as it got. When we finally did win there I was away on holiday and.missed it!

I did get my own back to a degree. He came with me to LR when we beat them 4-1 with Ray Wilkins pulling the strings. On that occasion we had a bet that the loser would buy drinks for the winner all night and in fairness to him he honoured it.

Yep I could add Norwich to my list - although only 3 failures to date.

One of which was with some corporate hospitality in the boxes behind the goal. Excellent food (clearly Delia inspired) and then comfy chairs to sit in with the noise from outside piped in - a bit of a surreal atmosphere truth be told.

Check out 5m 14s. The corner was taken from outside the quadrant and it led directly to the second goal.

Of course if it had been taken 3cm further back they never would have scored!

ANY part of the ball overhanging ANY part of the line is OK btw
