  1. I’ll be fecking pissed off, if the Rovers game is to be cancelled, because we’ve had our train tickets sorted for a couple of weeks now. Ditto!
  2. Absolutely correct!….Warm down ‘competitively’ after training with a doubles match of head and foot volley ‘football table tennis’. Dack and BBD v Ayala and Trav….muscle strain, ligament damage and back issues, what could possibly go wrong?!! May be good fun but absolutely crackers for professional athletes to be allowed and actively encouraged to play in such a way following a hard training session.
  3. It’s all about Rothwell’s missus and the attraction of living in Sandbanks!
  4. It is a contractual benefit in kind, correct and always has been. Nothing new here Josh, ask Duncan!
  5. Does the day and time of said photo really matter? JDT’s work permit has been signed off and approved, surely that’s the story?
  6. Come on Tony, I really couldn’t care less about splitting hairs, could you? I shared the general context regarding football from numerous conversations between David and I about all sorts of matters, most none related to football. I just shared on here what I felt relevant to the discussion from a different perspective.

  8. Regarding BBD, I was fortunate enough to meet Ben and his parents a few times at the back end of last season….super folk too I have to say. In fact I spent all of the second half at Peterborough sat next to Ben’s mother Andrea. They clearly dote on their son as they should, aren’t motivated by money and only want Ben to be happy in what he does. Importantly, he’s extremely happy at Rovers, as are they that he’s here. It would not be down to any influence from them should he be ‘moved on’. Given the opportunity to progress his future and benefit Rovers too under the tutorage of JDT, I don’t think Brereton will be looking to go anywhere soon. It’s pro football though, they’re all ‘pieces of meat’!……
  9. Just to clarify, various points that you and others have raised: I tend not to take much notice of what is publicised on websites or social media in general but much prefer to solicit my own information and actual facts from the contacts that I and other colleagues have made over the years both inside and outside football. PNE: I know David Robinson (a Director of PNE) extremely well and speak with him regularly. He states that they are pleased with how season ticket sales have gone but that the publicised ‘sales’ include all corporates, proposed ‘freebies’ and those issued to members of staff. Whilst reasonably pleased, they are conscious that Revenue derived is less than they’d have wished. Whilst that’s but one local comparison, I thought that I’d share it to highlight the views held by some that what Rovers are doing is poor and our neighbours are doing much better. It simply isn’t true….compare apples with apples because the only info regarding Rovers sales by comparison has been done by utilisation of a flawed platform of seat availability. Whilst there is much to be improved on at Ewood behind the scenes (not least of which the ticketing platform and portal), I want to stress that there is a genuine desire to do so and that ‘they’ are listening. Be constructively critical everyone by all means, that’s healthy feedback and a good source of ideas. Please stop beating ourselves up though, at times it appears just for the sake of it! COYB! RTID! 💙🤍
  10. Never say never, perhaps I/we live in hope but what a fabulous signing if we were to pull it off!
  11. I do but I don’t believe the moon is made of Blacksticks Blue or Gorgonzola either!
  12. Agreed, he’s 6’4” but 5’6” challenging for a header. He scored at Ewood at the back end of last season with a fluke: his first touch was dreadful and reached to regain control and as he lunged, scabbily flicked it over the keeper and in at the far post. Hopefully JDT influence and some self belief could pay dividends.
