Amazing scenes, but it's an outrage that it wasn't a full allocation. I don't usually care for tribalism, but do not ever let them forget that Blackburn Rovers Football Club, with the assumed consent of its fans, left money on the table out of fear of Burnley FC. If Ewood's doors close in a decade, twenty, thirty years from now, do not let them ever forget that at one point they left money on the table out of cowardice and petty spite.

All footage of last night should be accompanied by a caption explaining the B******s decision on the away allocation. They have sullied the derby. It's bad enough that they couldn't sell all their own tickets but to make it look like we couldn't fill the away end is a stain on the Lanclassico.

Glad they did but why would any self respecting ******* be videoing that? There were some proper thickos in that stand though.

When you read the tweets it’s amazing how quite a number of them don’t know the back story of the ticket allocation

Most of them do, they're just trying to be funny. It's all they've got after being humiliated on their own patch.

Where did this stupid word 'limbs' come from?

The Old Firm games have been ruined by both clubs pettiness. Think they're down to zero away fans for the league games now, completely ruins the spectacle.

I'd guessed it was latin but apparently an Old English word for branch, Lyme or Lim.

I know this isn't what you meant but I found it interesting.

LAOTS (limbs all over the show).

The scene of football fans celebrating a goal wildly with arms flying everywhere.

"Did you see the last minute goal? Absolute limbs from the Engalnd fans!"

It's from the same stable as "Scenes" or it's offspring "Absolute Scenes" - good to firm.

My Bolton friends watched the game after there's and couldn't believe the gaps in the away end , when I told them they said the same don't forget and give them half the 2200 and let them have a moan.

Can you imagine how much better it would be been with a full away end? Blackburn Rovers Football Club spoilt the day - and they did it just because they could.

NOBODY wants to see empty seats.

Absolute disgrace they robbed normal fans the opportunity to be there. Spiteful, childish nonsense. Desperate to see them fail and their finances implode. It will be 3 decent teams relegated this year, so I'm hopeful they will fall well short again next year.

I hope they go down next season. They could do.

The good news is we’ll be giving them none at all next season.
