TICKETS are selling well for Rovers' first Barclays Premier League home fixture of 2007/08.

Arsene Wenger's Arsenal are the visitors to Ewood Park on Sunday August 19th, and fans who are planning on coming down for the game are advised to either order their matchday ticket in advance, or to get to the Ewood Park ticket in plenty of time of the 3.00pm kick-off.

Arsenal are already bringing twice as many fans as they did to the corresponding league fixture last season, so come on Rovers supporters, do your bit and ensure that Ewood Park is rocking to the sound of the home fans. Your vocal support of the team at the last two away games against Middlesbrough and Preston North End was impressive and played its part in a Rovers victory in both matches, so lets see that again at Ewood Park this Sunday.

Tickets are currently on open sale for this Category A game, and with our price reductions for the 2007/08 season, it now sees prices start from just £25 for Adults, £15 for Seniors and Club 16-21 Members* and Juniors. Full pricing for all areas can be found here.

Sunday's game also marks the first match for Season Ticket Holders to use their new entry cards. New cards have now been sent out to all 14,500 Season Ticket holders via first class post in advance of the match against Arsenal, but with the disruption caused by industrial action on behalf of Royal Mail employees there is always the possibility that a handful of cards may not turn up in time for Sunday's match.

Anyone who hasn't received their Season Ticket Card will be issued with a temporary matchday ticket for their seat. A special window at the Blackburn End Ticket Office will be designated to serve those fans without their cards. The club requests that fans arrive early to allow their details to be processed. Please have ID available.

The Ewood Park turnstiles will be open early on Sunday to allow fans to watch the Manchester derby on the big screen and concourse televisions.

*Club 16-21 Price Tickets are available to those who were Club 16-21 members in Season 2006/07, should they still qualify. Details of Membership for 07/08 will be released shortly.
