	Blue and Whites: Purely Blackburn Rovers - Ewood Park (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-23)
		Ewood had already been built eight years earlier by four local entrepreneurs though, as the all-purpose sports ground used to host athletics, dog racing and trotting before it was primarily used for football when Rovers moved in.
		The facilities at Ewood were upgraded in 1903 when roof coverage for 12000 spectators was provided, and a year later a new stand was constructed along Nuttall Street to allow 5000 more spectators to enter Ewood, as well as new changing rooms, offices and a boardroom being added.
		But it was not until Jack Walker's investment in the early 1990's that Ewood Park saw a complete redevelopment; at an estimated cost of £25 million, three new stands with two tiers were built to take the overall capacity of Ewood up to 31 367.

		Ewood Park is a relatively impressive ground - built by Jack Walker's millions in the 1990's.
		The main stand and both those behind the goals feature state of the art grandstands that are of similar height and of roughly the same design, being two tiered, having a row of executive boxes and similar roofs.
		Just to highlight how much the ground has changed, this was at one time the 'best' stand at Ewood Park.

	40 Years at Ewood Park Part 2
		Cigarettes, pipes and the odd cigar abounded and I remember being disappointed when the pipe I had surreptitiously bought on the strength of the sickly sweet smell of pipe smoke that hung over the Riverside terracing turned out to taste acrid and fiery and not a bit as I had hoped it to be.
		Another smell I associate with the old Ewood is that of recently consumed beer arising from the outdoor and uncovered men’s toilets at the Blackburn end of the Riverside.
		The slow transformation from football supporter to football consumer is only a reflection of a general social trend for which football alone cannot be blamed, but something seems to have been lost on the way.

	Internet Football Ground Guide - Away Days, Ewood Park - Blackburn Rovers
		Once inside the ground I was overall impressed with Ewood Park, the only gripe I had was the Riverside Stand, it looked like Graeme Souness had stolen the away end from Filbert Street and stuck it in Blackburn!
		One curious thing I noted was the fact that the pitch sloped away from the playing surface, meaning players had to run uphill in order to take corners or throw-ins.
		The seats at Ewood were very comfortable, and I had plenty of legroom (at 6ft 3ins this is no mean feat), the stewards were helpful, and I even managed to coax one into admitting he was a Sunderland fan!
