ALTHOUGH now living in Kenilworth, my son, still a supporter of Blackburn Rovers, watched the match against Southampton on October 18.

I was a little apprehensive when he invited me to go with him, due to reports of bad language, hooliganism, etc.

I watched a good match and was impressed by the gentlemanly behaviour of the fans and the absence of any obscene language. I look forward to going again.
