With Swansea fetching about 300 I doubt there will even be 7,000 actually in the ground.

The BBC still think Hyam is a rovers player - be interesting to see how he gets on tonight against both Swansea and Leicester

That is still too many.

let's hope they really go to town, as this feels like the perfect opportunity for the local paper and the fans to unite and show these people for what they really are.

Get ready for one of the lowest attendances we've seen in years for a league match. They've got away with this season so far due to good away support, but not tonight. They'll announce the crowd as around 10-11k, in reality be around 7-8k inside Ewood.

Expose? Which one???? They could run one a day for at least a week. Andy Cryer sent a welcome message of solidarity. Now there is a gentleman who went through a lot when covering the Rovers. I will repeat myself, the club statements offer no room for compromise. A very dangerous game for the club to be playing. Gestede may not know the extent of the skeletons littering Ewood since the start of 2010. Find it difficult to believe Pasha doesn't know at least 80% in which case this ban is both reckless and desperate.

Hope he has some clout and can start to sort these club wreckers out.

Yes but if the River Darwen is running high after a Friday deluge, the drainage would still be waterlogged the day after....

Presumably still ‘an excellent appointment’ according to some esteemed posters on here?

WATR are meeting with Martyn Henderson next week. Martyn is Interim COO at the Independent Regulator for Football. It is probably the first step in a long process.

I would imagine its only Radio Lancs pre match there now until the issue get sort with the LT. This issue with LT and Elliott need sorting ASAP.

Yeah, why not, after ditching the EFL mandated supporters consultations they’ve also somehow managed to wrangle the FF down to just two meetings during the season. So might as well get rid of pressers too as all the local journos are suddenly ‘not up to the club’s very high levels of professionalism’, nothing to do with wanting to avoid scrutiny, of course.

Eventually something will give and they'll leave. But I fear that will still be a long time coming, at which point there'll hardly be anything left.

Both of these statements are true, Sheff Weds owner is worse than ours, but their silver lining is that this means he will be gone sooner, enabling a recovery, whilst Rovers are stuck in a seemingly endless cycle of decline

A win tonight is crucial. Lose, then I fear the same for Saturday ahead of further tough games, and a downward spiral will ensue.

Very unlikely. Raining all night Friday but light showers in the morning on Saturday and some sun as well. So will dry up.

You gotta say if we lose tonight then things are looking bleak and a dogfight looms.

We are worse off in the long run as he’ll be gone sooner rather than later and a grand old club like them will recover. We will continue to see wages paid (for an ever lower wage bill) for ever and a day as we fall down the leagues.

Perhaps this is their strategy. Ban all the journos, then have a ready made excuse to ditch the press conferences altogether.

Only takes one to ask, and if BBC get banned for asking a simple question then we get more eyes on us

Any statements from the trust/coalition should be posted on here as well as the other outlets, unless I’ve missed them?

Sheff Wed players told they won't be paid on time ---again. There's always someone worse off than yourself!! We only have the second worst owners in Britain.

This is not intended to be negative, especially as I think those statements are very good. But what is the intended audience and influence for them? Until Glen kindly posted them above, I hadn't seen them. That's probably because I'm not a group member. But I would imagine it isn't group members who need to receive and read the statements but those of us outside them, and the media, if they are to have any effect. Have I missed those anywhere, in which case ignore me?!
