There's this internet reference site called Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blackburn_Rovers_F.C.

The club's Latin motto "Arte et labore", which was used by the town council before the club were formed, literally translated means "by art and by labour".

whatever it means funny how none of them are qualities that rovers actually posses at the moment

I used to wonder about that myself actually, but never really bothered to find out

As for badges, I have no idea why Wigan decided to replace their old badge with their new one. God, their new one is pretty hideous to say the least imo.

Everton's is way cooler.
