I am not sure if I had some manner of post-traumatic hallucination but I am certain it was so. Fittingly it was announced well after the final whistle when half of those attending were already gone. -

Oh, and about half an hour ago the highlights came on in the pub on Sky Sports News. Could have done without a completely random set of people laughing at how shite we were. -

Can't add anything to what has already been said but a slight glimmer of hope elsewhere was Markanday when he came on, all to no avail of course but he seemed to be a bit better than I remember him being. Nowt more depressing than seeing how quickly the Riverside and BBE emptied after the third goal and as the minites advanced after that (and presumably the JW, but it's hard to tell sat in it!). The BBE was practically being closed up when I went downstairs after Sammie had finished his lap at the end. Not seen it that bad in a good while. I also stayed long enough to hear Gallagher annpunced as MOTM. Surely I imagined that?! I would just like to add that I said Boo at full time. I am so sorry if poor Callum or Dom are lying in bed now, crying uncontrollably at my heartlessness. -
Of course, the VFM factor also comes down to what you ate interested in. I'd concede that if you like cricket, golf, rugby union, F1 etc. and sport is your primary interest/social expense then fair enough, £30 all you can eat is great. If however you only like football, and your interest in that competes with other expensive hobbies like weekend city breaks or live music etc. then all of a sudden £x per month is rather unattractive.

That's me not watching Rovers on the midweeks etc. any more then. I adore Rovers but I utterly resent Sky and everything they stand for. I can't in all good faith bring myself to hand them a tenner if I want to watch us at Swansea on a Tuesday next season or whatever, nor can I be arsed to circumvent it. (Before anyone says the obvious, I live in the Midlands. Birmingham or West Brom is golden for me midweek, Ewood less so!)

Was recommended the Orchard but have dropped in at the Bag of Nails now so it's too far off the path sadly. -

First time at Ashton Gate tonight. I have circumvented my fears of the dirge I might be served up in exchange for my match ticket and hotel costs and day off work by partaking in this city's excellent public house provision. Half the time I think if I had to do all this teetotal I think I'd get another hobby. -
This is probably the best sentence I have ever read on here. I am stealing that phrase!

Aye, don't mind them but ain't my scene. Just wish they'd sing fucking songs about the Rovers. -

I clearly don't, I was also clearly going off what you implied by what you said ffs. -

Nope, leave all that carry on to the coked up pissheads who usually do it. -

This is beginning to do annoy me at Rovers. Not been to Ewood in a while, but at Norwich and then at Stoke yesterday, despite our brilliant performances on the pitch, our most popular song was that '[Kompany] playing football the Burnley way...' chant, and all you could hear stood outside the bet65 beforehand was some anti-Burnley stuff. I'm here to support our boys, ffs.
