Saturday's home game with Northampton Town will be Rovers’ annual ONEROVERS DAY to promote inclusion, value diversity and end discrimination.

The players will wear anti-racism Kick it Out t-shirts for the warm-up and #ONEROVERS shirts when walking out to the pitch at Ewood Park

Rovers duo Lewis Travis and Ryan Nyambe were promoting the event at Westwood Primary School this afternoon, two of eight players who have visited schools this week as part of the club’s ongoing community work.

A club spokesman said: “The club recognises it has an active role to play in ensuring players, officials, staff, fans, customers, members of the community, partners and other stakeholders value and encourage diversity, promote inclusion and end discrimination.

“Our community comprises many different people and we want our fans to reflect the community. The club interacts with many diverse groups through social activities, partnerships and projects undertaken by Blackburn Rovers Community Trust.

“Many of our fans have disabilities, but at Rovers they are fans first and we don’t define people by disability.

“Many have been coming for years and years and we are welcoming new fans each season.

“We thank them for their continued loyalty and dedication to this great club.”
