Actual attendance on a par with an early Carabao cup game

Jorgensen? He started, taken off 10 mins before the end -
I asked my mate who attended to take a video of the crowd. He and his son didnt think there was much difference to normal but I have to say it looks exceptionally sparse to me. Despite all this 11,600 bollux, which Im sure no-one is fooled by, the Club will know the REAL numbers and I'd imagine they're absolutely shitting themselves at the prosect of a catastrophic drop in ST revenue next time round. Keep plugging away boys and girls of The Coalition. Rome wasn't built in a day. VID-20260124-WA0011.mp4

Why was it pointless Tricky? There were significantly less people there today. It only takes 3 thousand less fans to be around 30% of season ticket holders telling you they are willing to walk away if things don’t change Are you happy to lose that 30%?

His only good spell in the Championship was at Barnsley, the other 3 spells awful. Even with the Barnsley job though it wasn’t football as we know it, it was the weird Covid season with either no fans or barely any. Aside from that his success has been at LASK in Switzerland and 2 spells in the lower leagues in Germany. Not sure todays result does us much good at all as it probably buys him more time whilst not helping our points tally either. Time to go. -
Thousands stayed away ! You might call that pointless, I call it making a point and a start to saving our club from 15 years of neglect.
-
Only "pointless" if you're fully on board with what ever the fuck it is that the owners, management and Ismael are trying to achieve.
-
There's going to be some fans are are very gleeful that the ground wasn't completely empty today and will be smug and crowing about it, best to ignore any of that and not take the bait.
-
The real count number is within this or match day thread, the boycotting number is significantly more than what you’re suggesting. My guess is circa 50% of the remnant core support stayed away, so 5,000 / 6,000, that is significantly more than I had hoped, enough is enough !

Gallacher runs the ex-players association (that is affiliated with the club) and is a regular in the corporate lounges. Ergo his opinion on the running of the club is anything but impartial, so I’m not interested in what he has to say on it. -
If it brought attention to our current situation it wasn't pointless.

Onto the next one

One shocking cross when he had all the time in the world to pick out his man. -
Will you all be back at Ewood next week after the pointless exercise then?

I don't think 4-5k boycotted, probably more like 2500, but we'll see what the police stats say compared with other recent Saturday games. Doesn't sound like much but it's probably around 25% of the remaining attendees these days, so it's a decent number. As many have pointed out, 22k+ home fans on most weeks just before the Venkys bought the club, now 8.5k season ticket holders and a few hundred walk-ons is what we're down to. The 15 year gradual boycott. I wonder/fear how low attendances could get before something happens.
-
I may come out of retirement, how the hell are those 2 morons allowed to sit there each week in relative comfort unchallenged? They should be surrounded by stewards, with the fans giving them pelters for 90mins, like the Celtic fans against Rangers a few weeks back. Where are my Gazelles…..

One win in 14, 4 home wins in 20 since joining the Club. We simply can't win a game under Ismael. Sick of saying it but we'll go down if he isn't potted - and fast. And I dont even think it will be close. -
Ohashi is getting progressively worse, not sure if it’s confidence, if he’s burnt out or what. He hasn’t always been this poor at finishing but he’s becoming a wasteful liability. Crying out for Gudjohnsen back and Yuki will be a useful sub no doubt, until then we have a problem and no obvious solution, unless of course we actually sign someone….

He’s simply not good enough to manage in the Championship. His last two jobs in this league (Watford/Rovers) have resulted in the following: Played - 83 W - 23 D - 26 L - 34 Win percentage - 27.71% -

I think a massive park of the problem is that a lot of fans (and the regime) don't seem to think that the attendance today is that bad or that somewhere between 2,000-4,000 fans have stayed away to protest the ownership. You put that on top of what we've already lost and it's frightening for a club of this size in this area of the country. But they don't seem to care.
