Careful mate, they'll start calling you a far leftie for having a differing view!

Stop being reasonable and grown up. Never going to catch on.

The latter

Thought his post in reply to mine yesterday was a very fair and reasonable one, but if that is the case then that's just...well....pathetic.

My lad (who lives in Leyland) is doing this for Macmillan Cancer. I would be very grateful if anyone on here could support him, even a couple of quid would be brilliant. Many thanks 🙏 https://mightyhikesfundraising.macmillan.org.uk/fundraising/chriss-mighty-hike2026

This is a good site for things like that - https://www.11v11.com/league-tables/. Enter any date and select the Championship and it'll show you how the table stood at the end of that day.

I think the accusation is that you behave differently on another forum than on here. Its several hours since SuperBrfc raised it and you haven't responded to that charge.

Interesting that all of those clubs (Sheff Wed being exceptional case and Leicester too early to judge) have noticeably improved since making changes.

Yea, you expect people to have differing views and to express them strongly at times but you don't expect your fellow supporters to be so mean and personal about it.

Anyone surprised, confused or under any illusions about this regime and their interest/reactions to league positions and results need only go and research / remind themselves of what happened the last time they relegated us in 2016/17 Appointed a joke of a manager, not just proven to be a flash in the pan/busted flush but also with the added bonus of his only success being in the dugout of our hated rivals. Left him in place until mid-February even though from the word 'go' we were nailed on for the bottom 3 and anyone with any sense could see it was only going to end one way. Lessons learned? I think not

If anyone has access to an AI tool I'd be grateful if you could get this answered for me. Of the managers sacked this season how many of their clubs had more or less points than Rovers at that date (complicated because Wednesday had a points deduction). My gut says that we're hanging on to VI well after other clubs fire their managers. I have a bet with the wife! This might help: Danny Rohl (Sheffield Wednesday) Departed: 29th July, 2025 Ruben Selles (Sheffield United) Departed: 14th September, 2025 Paulo Pezzolano (Watford) Departed: 8th October, 2025 Will Still (Southampton) Departed: 2nd November, 2025 Liam Manning (Norwich City) Departed: 8th November, 2025 Alan Sheehan (Swansea City) Departed: 11th November, 2025 Marti Cifuentes (Leicester City) Departed: 25th January, 2025

The gloaters/clappers/deniers/head in the sand or superfans call them whatever you want, are championing the fact 6.5k actually turned up. That tells you all you need to know.

Really was a great goal and although I've got no love for Utd, I was happier watching that fly in rather than Arsenal getting a point.

Brainless tackle for the second yellow, almost identical to one he should have been sent off for in his first season at palace against Burnley, I liked that one though!

We’ve got ourselves into a situation where every game becomes vital and tough games that on paper a point wouldn’t be terrible demand all 3. We risk being stranded if teams around us put a run of form together. ’Must win’ - won’t win!

The lad can finish if he's right in front of goal but offered little to nothing else for me. Unfortunately, we need this to be the second coming because we have nothing else available.

And it maybe wasn’t even the best goal his team scored that game! I liked the Arsenal of old under Wenger but wouldn’t be sad to see this lot bottle it. Burnley with 2 really solid points in the last couple of games but results around them mean they are even further adrift.

There has definitely been some baiting. I have to be honest and find the attempts to gloat a bit hard to take. I can't fully understand it. I don't think there are many supporters who do not agree with the end goal - to get rid of Venky's - and so any action organised by fellow fans should at least be supported, even if you decide it is not right for you to participate. It appears that some supporters have fallen in to this sort of paradox - where in one statement they will say they absolutely want rid of Venkys, and then in another cheer a perceived failure by a fan group to accelerate that end result. Social media has a lot to do with it, where fans find themselves locked in text based arguments - but unable to reason fully due to text limits - and then find themselves pushed to an extreme as all of the middle ground is eaten up with constant argument and accusation. There is just no way I could ever find myself laughing, ridiculing or cheering on the failure of a fan-led movement or organisation which goes against the Venkys. I really do not like the term "complicit" in this argument. It was wrong for some supporters to say that if you did not support the boycott you were complicit. However, I don't think it is wrong to say that celebrating a supposed failure of the boycott is in many ways helping the Venkys, Suhail and Rudy to remain in control of the narrative. Is this complicit? For those reasons above, I don't think it is the coalition who need to do some soul-searching. I think it is the fans who denigrate the coalition who do. There's a trap here - they have conflated their doubts over the efficiency of a boycott and their support for the coalitions objectives. Littered within all of the tittle tattle there were supporters who quite clearly opposed the boycott, but now started championing other forms of protests. Letter dumps to Venky HQ, red cards, sit ins after the game and the now infamous "let's fill Ewood to show investors". It is a startling sense of entitlement that one should now jump to support your idea of how to get rid of Venkys, when it has been weeks and weeks of ridicule of this idea. Although, with that said, I would support any and all action that accelerated the demise of Venkys and so if the coalition want me to make an effort to attend a certain game, I'm here for it and I really do hope that those promises of support weren't soundbites. I look forward to seeing full participation in the next round of action

Looking at the attendances from across the EFL and National League there was 9 League One, 1 League Two and 2 National League matches with higher attendances than the 7,600 at Ewood Park.

Just another in a long line of chancers who never would've got a look-in pre-Venky's. Out of his depth and just looking to use Rovers to monkey-branch his way to a better gig. The fact he went on protest here as a player merely adds to the unsavouriness of it all.

We went into that season with a load of optimism, real buzz around the ground that night… of course we fell away.

It even seems after a goal they blow the whistle after kick off.

That return, would probably keep us up, but I can’t see us picking up even that many. The next 2 at home could be crucial, but I can’t see us picking up even a point on Saturday, so the Sheff Weds game, then becomes high pressure.
