Blackburn Rovers are devastated to learn of the passing of Tony Parkes.
A true club legend, often referred to as ‘Mr Blackburn Rovers’, Tony passed away last night at the age of 76.
Everyone at the club sends their deepest heartfelt condolences to Tony’s daughter Natalie and all his family and friends at this incredibly sad time.
A special tribute will be held to celebrate Tony’s life and his outstanding contribution to the club’s history at our final home game of the season against Leicester City on Saturday May 2nd.
Absolutely sick to death of hearing about how the new @louistheroux documentary has made people think about attitudes to women. Lots of MPs jumping on the bandwagon. I mean, no disrespect to Louis - I’m grateful for the highlight - but for God’s sake…
Women get killed by their partner every week. Tiny Man Tate has been a thing for years. Domestic violence shelters are overwhelmed. Women have been waving the red flags about incels and attitudes for years. We’ve been begging for change. We’ve been highlighting the serious threat of anti-women social media. Then a MAN makes a documentary and suddenly everyone’s interested? Do you not all think that this might be part of the problem?
Following the news and the difficult decision made by F1, FIA and the promoters, I truly hope that this conflict comes to an end as soon as possible and that everyone stays safe. Racing in the Middle East is always special and I hope we can return to the region as soon as circumstances allow.
“how will i cope for four weeks?” “i need my cars” “surely we can replace the races?”
the middle east is getting bombed and people’s lives are at stake. i promise you, you will survive four weeks without formula one. a bit of perspective in the comments and qts please!!
