  1. I'll bet you a quid! 😉 (STs summer of '22 for '22/'23 season).....10k plus!
  2. On one hand no, on the other hand (based on demographics and age groups at recent away games) Yes! I've become a 'fossil', moaning about our exuberant teenage away following, they are in ever increasing numbers I have to say, and have been reminded that we were all 16 once! I'm sure you'll get my drift! 🙂
  3. I'm wholeheartedly in agreement with you. Just think, with 'their brass', how it could be!
  4. Matt, it's all about opinions The point I was really trying to make was that after 5 years (whether or not that be considered success or failure) Blackburn Rovers FC , a proud football club, should be dealing with matters better than it would appear.
  5. Spit! 😉 How can anyone 'champion' that lot?! I'd relegate all 3 of 'em and stick barcodes in the mix too as well as the Canaries and Watford! Hang on a minute, with 5 relegated, do we still have a chance?! 😉 🙂
  6. It would appear that Tony Mowbray is going to leave us this summer. Whilst most (me included) would question his team selections, tactics, substitutions etc during his 5 year tenure, what cannot be questioned is his devotion to the club. The club we now see is far removed from the one that was 5 years ago, Tony should take great credit for that transition, albeit we are not the finished article. I feel that it is despicable that nobody at the club has had the good grace to sit down with Mowbray, discuss what went well, what went badly and more importantly on a personal level, say thanks, no thanks, we wish you well...or whatever. It's just shit! So, with dignity, We're Blackburn Rovers Tony, Thanks, Good luck and you left us in a much better place than when you found us. Hopefully, onwards and upwards!......
  7. Correct, we made the play offs 3 times in the eighties in this league when we couldn't afford to pay the milk man! Mowbray's ramblings are bollocks, see above! Entitled?...it's the ultimate insult, fuck off Mowbray!
  8. Refs generally in England are shit....I haven't seen a good one yet this season in The Championship. The linesman at Deepdale on Monday being typical! What compounds matters is VAR in the PL, even slowing things down and looking at situations from a variety of angles, the 'adjudicators' still get it wrong! Biased/bent?......no, couldn't possibly be so!.....inept?....yep!!
  9. The ONLY positive of Venkys tenure is that they continue to sign cheques and have the financial wherewithal to ensure they never bounce. It was forever thus!
  10. It's bollocks by Mowbray and a true deflection from his personal failings both as a leader of men and being tactically inept as a football coach at this level on a consistent basis. He helped stabilise our club and has many plusses in the bank but should really have had the dignity and good grace to recognise his inability to move the club on any further 12 months ago and should have gone with everyone's blessing and good wishes then. His inane ramblings this season are frankly an embarrassment. Thanks Tony but you should have fecked off 12 months ago.
  11. Aerosmith - Janie's Got a Gun (good to be back on guys and a touch of light relief to the shit show at Rovers but with a tenuous link)
  12. Hi Andy,

    I'm going to log off, I'm getting too wound up.

    I could do with a bit of support please in shutting Mullan up....he's counter productive.

    If John and yourself could chip in and help, I'd really appreciate it.

    If not, I understand.

    Cheers

    Nick

      I'd better go and have a look at all this Nick, I've only really been on the music association thread today.

  13. I'm really getting brassed off with all the negative vibes and back biting amongst supporters. Glenn, you've had 12 years with your approach, have been AWOL for yonks and now appear back on the scene , I'll ask you a few questions: 1. What have you achieved to date? (after 12 years as you state) 2. Do you think your approach of misspelt aggression towards the owners is ever likely to work, if so why? 3. What are your specific aims and how do you plan to take the club forward based upon your aims, particularly with regard to working capital?
  14. Good for you mate, you crack on your way and I'll cart on with ours, best of luck. We're all Rovers when all said and done and only want what's best for the club we all love.
  15. Christ, I can't believe much of what I'm reading on here from various posters: Does anyone firmly believe that anyone is going to get anywhere by publicly coming out with phrases like "We need to cull the lot"!? I'll leave that thought with you all.....
  16. I'd leave Darragh out (his heart's not in it) and have a central defensive pairing of JPVH and Scott Wharton. Full backs I'd have Nyambe (? unsure tbh) right and Giles left. (With a 3 man midfield tucking in where appropriate to allow the full backs to bomb on forward) Midfield I'd go Travis, Buckley, Rothwell (? if his heart is still in it but he's still on the payroll!) Up front, Brereton, Dack, Dolan. We need to be on it from the first minute and press from the front! COYB!, (we cannot lose to these wankers!)
  17. You never fail to crack me up Len!.........could you also see Joe Rothwell as a 'Lawrence of Arabia' type figure? (rhetorical!)
  18. You should have spoken to Travis, Wharton and Brereton on Monday evening.......they were all seething but definitely and wholeheartedly committed, hence their anger and frustration!
