Interesting take. Weaker at LB then imo. Tyjon COULD be sensational. But do you think he'll feature enough to be considered a Dolan replacement? If he does, might be an inspired move.

De Neve replaces Beck. Tyjon replaces Dolan as a ten.

I dont know but they probably take their plastic snake to bed with them every night.

"Perhaps we are discovering the limits of Wiegman’s staunch loyalty to her class of 2022, her stubborn persistence with players and patterns that have long since been decrypted by the rest of Europe." Some truth in that and for large parts of games we have been dull. But it has made for great cliffhangers. Agree that we cannot possibly ride our luck for a third time....can we? And I'm likely to throw something at the TV/radio if I hear another pundit say : "But they found a way through."

Lol. People can go and re-read that exchange if they want context. Hissssss 🐍🐍

I shouldn't really be dignifying that attempt at being clever with a response but go on I'll bite. As the original discussion was whether we'll be stronger this season than last - that's sort of the point.

As a squad player, undoubtedly yes.

How can someone downvote this when it's just fact. !

Dolan isn't one of our players

Always worked before. Popular games like Wrexham, just start it at ST holders + X away games depending when it falls in the season. Over complicated nonsense.

Fair enough. The question then until we sign a replacement will be "Will we be weaker with Dolan or Hedges on the right?" I think most of us know the answer to that. Cue Mr. Mani. Edit: Whoops. And Rigger.

In my opinion, No.

Exactly, if it wasn't for Wrexham not a single game would be particularly close to selling out before general sale, so why do we need a convoluted point system? Week for ST holders, then general sale like it always was.

You could argue that De Neve is Dolan's replacement as things stand, as all they have done is put him on the left and shift Hedges who previously played onto the right.

I don't think they know. Just make it up as they go along. Loyalty point system is completely pointless here, one game a season at best is there demand for any loyalty points before they go on general sale. Usually if Dingles are in the same league as us, this year I suppose Wrexham might need it.

De Neve and Dolan dont even play in the same position or the same side of the pitch. Until we sign a replacement the question is 'Will we be weaker without Dolan?"

A 'pointless' system for a club that very very rarely (Dingles aside) sells an away game out before general sale.

You're absolutely right ... even though eustace owes us nothing and just doing his job of picking a dead man's pocket , we'll do it in a heartbeat too... but i blame the Vs for the murder of ROVERS

Totally unproveable, but until I actually see otherwise , I would say yes and yes.

Am I correct in thinking that loyalty points are now accumulating season on season. When they introduced it last year the maximum number of season tickets included in the loyalty point scheme was 2 (2023/24 and 22/23). I think you got more points for 23/24 than you did for 22/23. Now I have 440 which I believe is another 150 for this years season ticket. Thinking forward, I wonder how many years season tickets they are going to include in the loyalty points before they 'cap' it.

League one was the original berth of the 1875 club wasn't it due to some small allocations? From memory there was only Fleetwood that actually ended up needing it! Then I think it got canned for a few years until we appeared in the same league as those lot so they decided to cash in on the FOMO as you rightly say. What an operation this club is.

The 1875 Club was only ever used for a quick exploitative cash in on loyal fans with FOMO for a ticket to that lot down the M65. They had zero interest in utilising it for anything productive.

Im not sure selling the best right back possibly in the league to a supposed direct rival (in terms of objectives) and replacing with someone they discarded seems wise. Think hes had injury problems and isnt that good.

I’ve not read that yet. Edit. I have now. No punches pulled there is there ? The writer is correct though, we’ve been a bit incoherent all through the tournament and got by with latge helping of good fortune.

They were knackered in extra time. Italy in particular were kicking it anywhere. That doesn’t happen to the same degree in the men’s game.
