They don't own them; they've been around for decades long before and hopefully long after whichever hired hand disappears again.

Mattyblue Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 Unfortunately unless you are a โbig 6โ club the media think the casual football fan will only pay a blind bit of notice to any other club if they have a connection to an ex superstar player.

It's (quite) interesting that we're not being seen as "Tomasson's Rovers". Guess that's because JDT only played 1 season in the Premier League. Still, I'd prefer us to go under the radar initially, rather than crash & burn, like our neighbours to the east. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It gives Rovers and Stanley a great opportunity to look at lots of players and formations, it's perfect for the players to have an hour of decent intensity given it's the first game and as spectators we get excellent value for money.ย Great thinking from JDT, can you imagine Mowbray coming up with something so novel. ๐๐ 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One memory of that day was the excellence of the Morecambe catering. Knowing fans would be there for around four hours they had a great choice including pasta.ย 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt83 Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Iโm surprised thereโs still 600 tickets left for Stanley thought would have easily sold out the 2,300 allocation by now particularly as itโs JDTs first game.ย Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stanley put out a message for any of their fan's who had bought tickets in two blocks of the Studio Stand to contact them and be relocated to another part of the ground. As the game is two weeks away and JDT's first I would expect us to sell out. I have actually bought tickets through Stanley and would expect other Rovers fans to do the same.

rigger Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 I expect, because when the tickets first went on sale, it was to season ticket holders only, some Rovers fans will have bought tickets through Accy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
