G Somerset Rover Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 To be fair, you should've waited for Mercerman's prediction before putting your bet on.Is Mercer a bookie with an ulterior motive? Not doubting his love for Rovers but there has to be more to his predictions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldjamfan1 Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Is Mercer a bookie with an ulterior motive? Not doubting his love for Rovers but there has to be more to his predictions. I think he has usually quaffed a couple of glasses of red before making his prediction. He's a glass empty = glass half full kind of guy (if you get my drfit!?)

AllRoverAsia Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 With the benefit of hindsight the downpour and Ewood flooding was a Christmas present to Rovers. Boro would have hammered us if yesterdays Rovers had turned out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueboy3333 Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 With the benefit of hindsight the downpour and Ewood flooding was a Christmas present to Rovers. Boro would have hammered us if yesterdays Rovers had turned out. Not according to Lambert. http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/dec/28/bolton-wanderers-blackburn-rovers-championship-match-report Lambert: I knew at the time the Middlesbrough game was off that it was going to have an adverse reaction to us because people have that mindset,” he said. “You’re better playing so everyone else is at the same level. I knew the Middlesbrough game being off was a dangerous thing for us – being fresh never really entered my brain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomphil Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Has there been any word on when this might go ahead, as late in the season as poss would be best for us Also does anyone know what happens with ticket refunds as I bought an extra for someone who was only ever going to be a Boxing Day attender. No point hanging on to the tckt as I prob won't even be able to give it away ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JHRover Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 'The Football League would like to apologise to supporters of Blackburn Rovers and Middlesbrough for any inconvenience this further change might cause' That's something you don't hear very often. The League speaking to and apologising to supporters. I'd prefer it if they actually explained their reasoning behind this switch and why it clashes with their 'wider fixture scheduling requirements' rather than keeping us in the dark once again.

Moderation Lead K-Hod Posted January 5, 2016 Author Moderation Lead Share Posted January 5, 2016 Is there no chance we can tell the league to FO when they request us to change kick-off times? (Perhaps not as directly as that, but I'm sure you all know what I mean!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Graham Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Great (not). I cannot make the new date. Mind you it will probably be changed again due to mole hills or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkturner Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 are we not due to play Fulham at home on the 30th January? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beta Ray Bill Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 are we not due to play Fulham at home on the 30th January? Yes but it's FA Cup 4th round too. If we lose at Newport, Fulham win at Sheffield Wed, we have no league opponents. Boro would have to lose at home to Burnley in the cup, and their scheduled league opponents on 30th (MK Dons) would to win away at Northampton for them to be similarly free. So not a realistic combination of results for it to be 30th Jan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philipl Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Even the new date will be in doubt if we draw at Newport in the re-arranged fixture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
