Jack Walker was beginning to make his presence felt at Rovers, whose promotion via the Division Two play-offs in 1992 led to them being a founder member of the ...

We didn’t have a training ground so all the players joined in with everything we did and that had a lot to do with us being a bonded club.” Rovers have now spent 10 years outside of the top flight. “I remember when it first started it was all new, so different to football as we knew it. “Going to the first Premier League meeting in London, meeting new people. “There were certain conditions and parameters but the whole thing grew organically. The Premier League was a game-changer in terms of revenue and exposure, but also placed demands on clubs who quickly had to adjust staffing levels. While they were embarking on an era that would take them to the heights of the Premier League title, she said the spirit of the club is what led them to that success. There was an element of secrecy to the initial Premier League launch talks, with the rest of the Football League clubs, of which Rovers were at the time, kept in the dark. “The togetherness of the staff, the players. She says the feeling of winning the Premier League remains ‘surreal’ and celebrations are in the works for the 30th anniversary in 2025. It was to be the start of a golden era for Rovers, but a step forward for the game, with the Premier League having since grown into the biggest, and most-watched, league in the world. Rovers would go on to become the second club to lift the Premier League trophy with their success in 1994/95, and they remain one of only seven teams to be crowned champions within the last 30 years.

And his side had the better of the opening 30 minutes, Darnell Furlong and Diangana both nodding dangerous Jed Wallace deliveries over and John Swift testing Rovers goalkeeper Thomas Kaminski via a dipping free-kick. Goals either side of half time from Ben Brereton Diaz and Sam Gallagher were enough to earn the hosts all three Sky Bet Championship points, despite Grady Diangana’s second period strike.

Sammie Szmodics sends message to Blackburn Rovers supporters ... (Football League World)

Sammie Szmodics has taken to Twitter to praise Blackburn Rovers' fans for the support that they illustrated in yesterday's clash with West Bromwich Albion.

By improving his consistency this season, there is no reason why Szmodics cannot go on to become a key player for Blackburn as they aim to move forward as a club under the guidance of Tomasson. The attacking midfielder managed to find the back of the net in his side’s 3-0 victory over Swansea City earlier this month as he registered a WhoScored match rating of 7.08 in this fixture. Blackburn opened the scoring in this fixture just before half-time as Sam Gallagher teed up Ben Brereton Diaz who fired an effort into the back of the net from the edge of the box.
