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.

We try the membership scheme but offer perks that most people aren't really arsed about or don't actually need, but actually offering a serious saving on tickets would be a clear incentive and probably lead to significant increased membership sales, as opposed to the pathetic numbers sold previously. As ever with this lot it's the low hanging fruit they are looking for. Coining it in from a few bumper away followings is easy, just have to set a price and let them in. If Rovers fans don't like it tough "Should have bought a season ticket then" attitude

This is it for me, the 1875 membership would have been perfect for this. Pay a £30 yearly fee or whatever and get x amount off each ticket you buy over the season, can charge the away fans what they want then. As we have known long before now, nobody is interested in growing the fanbase here. We're a huge inconvenience to them.

Sell brittain to boro and pick up djiksteele who they have just released? Might be a bit of value to that deal. 3 mill to add for a rw or striker

Does anyone have any information on Andy McNally? One of the early Rovers Ladies' coaches who brought huge success to the team. Can't see much of him online though?

The club's focus and priority comes into clear view with this latest act All the focus and concern at decision making level is around the opposition and more importantly how much cash can be extracted from their fans. The impact on Rovers and Rovers fans and absolute irrelevance, £35 a time in the away end so the same behind the goals in the BBE. Like it or lump it. No discount scheme or members prices either which many others offer to give home fans reduced rates whilst still getting the away support cash What next. Wrexham possibly Category A* for the tourists. Just ridiculous and an opportunity for a decent home crowd first game of the season wasted. They'll be happy though because they can profit from Birmingham's promotion and feel good factor

At some point after the Accy game, he picked up a severe groin injury and will be out for a while

I think I am already at the stage that I would be less concerned seeing Montgomery coming on as a sub than I would be about John Buckley trotting on.

I watched the last 15 minutes and about 10 minutes of extra time. I also watched extra time in the Sweden game. In both cases the two sets of players looked dead on their feet around 95 minutes which got me wondering; why do women play 90 minutes, and then 30 minutes of extra time? Would 80 mins, and two 10 min periods not be better for the game? Women play best of 3 sets in major tennis tournaments. The men play best of 5. The WNBA has 10 minute quarters. The NBA has 12 minute ones. Women do 100m hurdles. Men 110m I'm sure that there are more examples too. Has it been discussed by FIFA or UEFA?
