Blackburn Rovers Football Club is an English Premier League football club based in the town of Blackburn, Lancashire. The club was established in 1875, and in 1888 became a founder member of The Football League. In 1890 Rovers moved to its permanent home at Ewood Park. Until the formation of the Premier League in 1992, the majority of the club's success was pre-1930 when they won the league and FA Cup on several occasions.
In 1992, Blackburn were promoted to the new Premier League a year after being taken over by local steel baron Jack Walker, who installed Kenny Dalglish as manager. Three years after winning promotion Blackburn were league champions, having spent millions of pounds on players like Alan Shearer and Chris Sutton. But the title winning team was quickly split up and in 1999 Blackburn were relegated. They were promoted back to the Premiership two years later, just after Jack Walker's death, and have been in the top flight ever since. During this time they have qualified for the UEFA Cup three times, once as League Cup winners and twice as the Premiership's sixth-placed team.
The club's Latin motto "Arte et labore" means "by skill and labour".
