I only saw this for the first time in an announcement from the club on their website. It's about supporter behaviour but contains the following:

Supporters should also be aware of the club’s bag policy when entering the stadium.

To make Ewood Park safe for everyone, restrictions are in place on what you can bring in a bag into the stadium. Each supporter can only bring one small bag and it must not be bigger than A4 size.

I know lots of supporters particularly in the family stand who take drinks and snacks in bags bigger than A4. For the life in me I can't see any logic behind a decision like this. Why don't they just say what the restrictions in the bag are.

It's almost like we have appointed a 'Head of Pissing People Off' whose job it is is to annoy supporters. 

That's obviously why they're doing it to discourage fans from bringing in their own food and drinks and drive people towards the over-priced crap on the concourse.

At least its better than some clubs.  Stockport refuse to let you take any food and drink into their ground.  Their prices made ours look a real bargain!

Always take the kids something then begrudgingly pay for pint

A4 is a two dimensional size, so is there no limit as to how deep the bag is ?

Where have you seen that? Or just a guess?

I just wrote it for an irritating giggle

Can anyone there tomorrow, please share this and ensure big Mick gets the send off he deserves.

RIP Big Mick

Harry Leonard sold to Peterborough, for a £1,000,000. Somebody in the LT comments called Gestede a clown, we've had the best transfer window for a while at Ewood. Money in the pot with outgoing players, and some decent replacements brought in. I think the person who wrote it is the true clown. Well done Gestede under the circumstances.

I suspect harry is another was stood up to Gestede and his treatment of Lesley Fielding, as he seemed to suffer the same fate as Buckley and Travis.

Equally, it could be the worst transfer window we've ever had. 

Far too early to say either way.

Didn't know the gentleman but incredibly sad news for his family and the Rovers family, will certainly applaud on the 70th minute 👏

Really. I thought he was/is a Jack Vale tribute act.
