Oh Mr Shearer don''t you regret saying the only game that is easy in the Premiership is Ipswich at home.&nbsp - To give those who do not know what I am talking about, an insight into what I mean...&nbsp - Basically Blackburn bought their way to the Premiership title the season before via the millions invested by the now late Jack Walker and Shearer was asked whether there were any easy games in the Premiership... answer above. &nbsp - Well the season they won the league, sorry bought the league (no bitterness of course), we did get turned over left, right and centre and diagnollay and from behind (you get the picture) - Oh and that included a nine nil drubbing by Man Utd, which still to this day (15/02/09) remains a Premiership record - Inces goal shouldn''t have counted though!! &nbsp - Well after being held to a draw at Portman Road, it was off to Yorkshire with my old chap, my mum''s boss James and her really really really busy friend at work Theresa for my first ever away game.&nbsp - Surely we could not beat the reigning Premiership champions in their own back yard? &nbsp - Well we did.&nbsp - Richard Wright played in goal on YTS wages of £65 a week and pulled off wonder save after wonder save to deny Ripley, Shearer and scum twat Sutton etc etc etc.&nbsp - Paul Mason popped up with a 117th minute extra time winner to send the fans into frenzy.&nbsp - Great day and sod school in the morning - Even better!!

Won 1-0 with mason scoring in extra time - brilliant especially after shearer had said the year before that "there are no easy games, except ipswich at home".  Richard Wright was brilliant making loads of saves throughout the game.
