The way I read it, the 40% was given if you bought a ticket for the rearranged game, not if you could not attend the rearranged game.

Exactly...same cause.....Fragile narcissists out of their depth...unfit to do the job... But.....Gestede is not a bully....Suhail only wants the best for the club. Meanwhile, the Raos are merely humble people, who mean well... We are on our own here...

Wait so you can get a full refund amd then buy a ticket at 40% discount? 😆

But why would someone take 40% (6.3) if you can get it all back (6.4). Makes no sense. Either way it wouldn’t surprise me if the club actually just pretend the match was played and just offer “£15” tickets for the rearranged game, pocketing all the money for the first game. Let’s see.

Imagine if those currently running the club exerted as much effort in running the club properly as they do in taking action against those calling their general incompetence out. Imagine.

Welcome to Trumpism at Blackburn Rovers. If you are in any way critical of the club we will ban you. This is USA 2.0 and it's pretty scary in my opinion

Lol its the same chair haha

Not pedantic, the truth.

6.4 mentions postponed too so abandoned must surely mean after kick off.

Pedantic. But I still think no one gets their money back.

This news has just backed up my worst fears....has legal pressure been applied to the protest groups as it all went very quiet suddenly? If this is how those wthin the Corridors of Ewood want to play then cry havoc and let slip the Dogs of War! Feck 'em.😠

This has enraged me more than anything the Venkys have done. I've emailed the club to express my disgust and Elliott Jackson to support him. We should all do the same. I think of Alf Thornton and Peter White and I weep for the club.

To abandon a game, it must have kicked-off. If it hasn't kicked-off, then it would be postponed.

A poor decision that hasn’t been thought through by those running the club. It reinforces the view that they’re every bit as incompetent as they’ve been labelled, rookies and amateurs with zero prior experience in the roles they’re undertaking. There’ve been rumours all summer about how they treat individuals and groups who don’t toe the line, nothing proven, but plenty of noise. Then they pull a stunt like this, in full view of the public. Anyone with half a brain cell could see this risks the mask slipping, but not them. As a fan or a neutral, it’s now hard not to believe every single rumour that’s been doing the rounds.

@wilsdenrover @rigger Hmm. I’m presuming 6.4 only applies if the game is abandoned and rearranged before it kicked off. 6.3 clearly says that if you attended the original game and it was abandoned in the second half you are entitled to a 40% refund but have to buy a ticket for the rearranged game. Why would anyone do that when you could just say you can’t make the rearranged game, get a full refund and then buy a ticket?

Make a flag out of it!!!

Hang on is that not the actual chair they use in photoshoots... someone actually draped the flag on there on the inside

We still have a handful left in stock…😉

Games have been replayed in similar albeit not identical situations. I gave 2 examples earlier and neither led to any games forced to the point of abandonment on purpose.

A steward tried to throw me out in 2010 for taking a photo of a plane. We're back to the Anderson days.

Chant (to Yellow Submarine): In the papers that we read, Stands a writer that we need, Telling stories true and strong, Elliott, you can’t go wrong… 🎶 Chorus: We all cheer for Elliott Jackson, Elliott Jackson, Elliott Jackson! We all cheer for Elliott Jackson, Elliott Jackson, Elliott Jacksoooon!

Yea also looking forward to the podcast one is due anyway

I heard that a fan had a hospitality booking refused for his public stance against the club.

I am a big fan of Jackson, he's puts together decent coverage and I think he is pretty fair to both the club and the fans. He - just like everyone else - over time has got more and more bemused by the absolutely mad decisions coming out of the club. As he's surfaced those observations the club have censored him. I am not sure where the club thinks this will go. Kind of links into the petty nature of Gestede that has been posted on here by others. They've created another negative story that will run and run. Wonder if they will ban Simon his podcast co-host too (of this parish I believe). Will be interesting to hear on the podcast what happened, I am sure they will talk it through.
