martonrover Posted December 9, 2012 Posted December 9, 2012 Away followings have been tremendous this season so far, sadly the football hasn't. supporters are not going to pay to watch rubbish, especially so close to Christmas, so not selling out at bpool is understandable surely. Can't argue with that, but it's indicative of how low supporter morale is when we're struggling to flog a small ticket allocation for such a local game.

Yes I take your point, but I think it's more to do with Christmas than anything else. Burnley tickets flew out of the door despite the restrictions, we could have sold many more by all accounts had the morgue not been the small decaying hovel that it is. Bpool will sell out I'm sure.
mac Posted December 9, 2012 Posted December 9, 2012 I've got tickets but after Friday night wish I hadn't
Gav Posted December 9, 2012 Posted December 9, 2012 I've got tickets but after Friday night wish I hadn't Pleasington to Bpool straight through on the train, will be a good day on the ale if nothing else
The Gull Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Where are people heading before/after the game? I'm especially interested in before the game as I think I'm going to need a skinfull to get through this game!

Cant see it being that warm this time around somehow. Few beers to keep us warm will be ok though

roversfan83 Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Think we started in Yates which was near Blackpool north station if memory serves then made our way towards ground vaguely stopping in different ones as we went. One pub had loads of rovers fans in and had a good sing song which was good but can't remember for life of me where it was or what was called. With blackpools vast choice for bars in a way there's something to be said for say when go wolves away with the designated city centre away pub and the choice is made for you, walkabout or nothing. Suppose it keeps fans drinking in town together and can have a good crack.
Ossydave Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 The Flagship is the best boozer in Blackpool bar none!! Even @ 1 in the afternoon it's like most pubs are at 1am.

Roost Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 sounds decent that Dave, may have a look see where it is North Shore I think.
Glenn Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 If I get my own way, I'll be in the pump and truncheon. Proper pub with proper ale, decent banter and no chance of bumping into the type of fans I try to avoid

Ralfinho Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 North Shore I think. Mini pub crawl Pete!!!! Im sure Hindle will be all over that idea
BRFC4EVA Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Full allocation sold out as of today. Pretty decent effort considering its almost a week before the game, how bad we are atm and its close to Christmas.
Roost Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Good to hear that we have sold our allocation. I have an adult and junior ticket available for this game. PM me if you would like to take them off me for what I paid.
Rover_Shaun Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Good to hear that we have sold our allocation. I have an adult and junior ticket available for this game. PM me if you would like to take them off me for what I paid. Paypal me £20 and I'll have them

Hughesy Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 Good to see another good away support.... up to the fans to stick with the team in the tough times at the moment.

EgyptianPete Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 Pump & Truncheon? Sounds like an S&M club to me. Ralfinho will be there like a shot! Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha kin Brilliant, rovers fans are simply the best.
Ralfinho Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha kin Brilliant, rovers fans are simply the best. All over that mate!!!! Birthday celebrations for me on Saturday, grand old age of 32. Getting old now. They say time goes quicker as you get older so the majority on this boards time must be whizzing by......
Steve Kean's Hypnotoad Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 Seems quite a small allocation given how unlikely Blackpool are to sell 15,000 home tickets. Don't know whether its a lack of ambition/forcefulness from Rovers or some other reason but its quite irritating sometimes how our allocations are significantly below demand when they don't seem to have to be.
