That explains it. Dion De Neve is actually an olympic 1500m freestyle hopeful, not a footballer.

They would probably like the expulsion one.

Prove me wrong but I think that's beyond the pale even for the owners. Where would the club even play that meets league regulations and isn't toxic from a rivalry perspective.

At the time, when Yuki Ohashi cut his head I thought it was odd how quickly we found a Speedo swim cap for him to wear. Maybe this was the strategy and forward planning alluded to understand the new regime?

OK I had not seen them.

Not enough. Points deductions and /or the threat of expulsion from the League if the work isnt done required.

Their ST targets would be in tatters.

Leaves me wondering if our pitch is responsible for our plethora of tissue injuries.

There were a number of them out at half time. It's effectively pissing in the wind. The drainage is the problem.

(Tin hat on) Deliberate ploy to mothball Ewood?

Yet again Incould not access RoversTv withiut oaying for the game. I paid a season pass at the start of the season. It appears my subscription has disappeared. Anyone else had this. This is not the first time, support is awful they have never resolved anything. Has anyone else dealt with this. I thiught we had a RoversTv thread here but I can't find it. Any help appreciated. More embarrassing stuff for the club today. We looked poor too. Why were the groundstaff not working at halftime, one guy with a little fork don't get it done.

They’re so uninterested they probably have no idea this is happening, and I’d imagine the stooges are perfectly happy with that

Back then we used to have one of the best pitches in the league. Ever since these clowns came in, we’ve been ruined .

In all seriousness the way things are going we need to start thinking about whether we need to be playing our home games at a different venue. Assuming the lowlife that own us aren't going to take this seriously and invest in remedial work it is going to get worse, and worse, and worse. We cannot afford to continue using a facility that cannot cope with heavy rain and causes multiple abandonments and lost points. Either that or I expect the League will begin to apply pressure and begin to fine/sanction us for it.

They've obviously never seen the US Masters Golf, those guys can clear a waterlogged golf course in about half an hour.

If the EFL have anything about them, they will force Rovers to refund home and away fans the ticket price, travel costs and any other out of pocket expenses. To ignore this and allow the club to get away Scot free is not good enough.

There can be absolutely no excuse. We didn't have games called off in the 2000s/2010s due to weather once a season. Accrington and PNE completed their fixtures today in the same conditions. The problem is failure to renew the drainage which was last done over 30 years ago. End of story.

A TINPOt CLUB RUN BY TINPOT OWNERS. Venkys fuck off, you're an embarrassment to the fans

Waste of 15 years.

This club is an absolute farce. May as well call off the Oxford game now as well because it's going to be raining all week. Embarrassing.

Billionaire owners who love the club. Can't be bothered to bring the stadium and pitch into the 21st century. I f***ing hate them. One of the world's most historic clubs for 135 years and 15 years of being the biggest laughing stock. Fried chicken adverts, Ronaldinho, Steve Kean, Shebby Singh, Owen Coyle, League One, inability to complete transfer paperwork. Now we have the worst football pitch in the football league. Get them out

Shambles

Actually laughable that with the exact same thing happening only a couple of months ago the 'solution' during the intervening time has been to buy/borrow half a dozen water hogs that obviously are going to make zero difference on a football pitch in that state with the rain still peltering down. Like with everything else down there, superficial, cheap, minimal efforts to resolve an issue just end up making us look even more amateurish than before. We use the same hogs to try and dry the square at our amateur cricket club, not a full size football pitch in the Championship,

Yep I was completely wrong.

Waste of an evening.
