THERE was plenty of friendly rivalry when Blackburn Rovers took on Chester City in the FA Cup at the weekend... including civic rivalry.

Councillor Jack Bury, the Mayor of Blackburn with Darwen and an Ewood Park regular, was in attendance along with counterpart Councillor Reggie Jones, the Lord Mayor of Chester.

The two civic leaders swapped crests before the tie, which Rovers won 2-0.
