60s. Blackburn had a player during this decade whose twelve letter name had one vowel appearing in it, can you name him?

70s. Linden Jones’ second match for City was against Blackburn, who was the player he was sent off for fighting with?

80s. What’s the connection between this photo (taken in South Wales) and a Blackburn full back from this decade?

90s. Easy one this, who is this?

blackburn 2

00s. This Blackburn defender from this decade has been involved in incidents which left Djibril Cisse, Hakan Suker and Mark Delaney with serious injuries – he also “died” for two minutes during an operation on a fractured cheekbone, who is he?

Blackburn 3

10s. I thought the Blackburn side beaten 3-0 here in 2013 was the worst one to visit Cardiff City Stadium during our Championship winning season – as of today, what is the total number of full international caps that have been won by the eighteen players in their squad that day?
