Once again I marvel at the lengths you go to to support your club--rain or shine.If we were playing Torquay on a Tuesday night you and a few others would be there!

But don't you ever feel taken for granted? Or anger at what Pasha and Co are doing to this once great Club?

 

called support your club through the good and bad times 🔵⚪

Its just the usual dumbing down of expectation coming to the fore,its what we have become.Snatching a draw from the Jaws of victory provides no solice for me personally in our precarious position.

Can we beat Ipswich or will it be Jekyll and Hyde time again with our oddball side?

Actually a really good way of describing us. Jekyll and Hyde lol 

I wish we were more Rambo than the current Titanic....

He isn't - at the end of the day we're 18th, three points above the relegation zone and failed to win a match we should have won comfortably.

If you're pleased with that, I really don't know what to say.

He is right. They played well that's pretty much all his post was about not sure what's wrong with praising the players.

I read Arbitro’s posts avidly, we played in the same primary school team, but there are two separate issues: was it a foul? Probably not. Did Hedges need to make any contact at all? Definitely not: it was a foot from the touchline and six feet from the corner flag, there were two defenders right there and another not far away, zero risk in that situation.

There is an expectation John that the linesman will operate to reflect how the game is being refereed and the referee (who I thought was decent) allowed a lot of physicality which is how the vast majority of fans, players and managers want to see the game managed.

The free kick awarded against Hedges was so soft and completely out of kilter with how the match was being refereed. I saw a comment that the Wrexham player involved told someone from Rovers that it wasn't a foul.

Significantly Hedges (who strikes me as a decent, honest guy) was still complaining as the players were going down the tunnel several minutes after the game had finished.

Oh, and this is the same linesman who flagged Dolan offside at that lots ground last season when he was clearly onside. He is well known in the refereeing world for being erratic.

There is a good portion of fans who don't care about any of that.

Aslong as there is a side who are playing in blue and white at Ewood to watch every week they are happy.

But surely this charade can't go on indefinitely and then we won't be playing at Ewood in blue and white?

Then they'll lose what they hold most dear.

So what's your answer and what are going to do? 

[chaddyrovers]

@arbitroand @Parsonbluecan I asked what Wrexham's ground is like facilities or food menu options?

 Can't argue at the free kick given in all honesty, Lino was always going to give it, hedges shouldn't have lunged in.

That Ohashi chance second half will haunt him for a while, why he didn't put his foot through it or just place it in the corner I'll never know. 
I would have took a point before hand but the manner of the goal and other teams around us winning, it feels like a defeat.
