1995–96 Blackburn Rovers F.C. season games and only narrowly missing out on a UEFA Cup place. They also got knocked out of the Champions League already in the group stage against comparatively unknown Rosenborg and Legia Warsaw. Compounding the misery was the sale of fan favourite and top scorer Alan Shearer, who went to Newcastle for a British transfer record at the end of July.
