I was asked yesterday where the away fans could drink when I went to Ewood, so in case anyone didn't know...
The away fans pub at Blackburn is called the Fernhurst. It's almost directly opposite the away end on the A666 (just slightly further towards Darwen/South). It has recently built a travel inn-kind-of-extension and allows cars to park for a price in the car park.
There are other local pubs that will accept away fans but none as close to the ground. The Ewood Arms and The Aqueduct (other side/Blackburn End of the ground) are home fans only. Uncle Jacks in lower Darwen (left at traffic lights going south on and diverting left off the A666) is also home fans only.
The only mixed fans pub I know is up Livesey branch road, that is, up the hill by MacDonalds. I can't remember the name as I've only been once but I think it's the White (maybe Black?) Bull. You'll find others if you drink in either Darwen or Blackburn town centre but both are at least 2-3 miles from the ground.
