Went to Stanley, too early to tell. Mate went to Hartlepool, said it was turgid. Just about fitness, and JDT seems happy with that. I don't think pre-season is any indicator.

I'm taking the new bounce plunge, and will take my lad, who's very keen to go. Let's hope we start positively, and our fresh manager, freshens things up!

I'm in!

Bumped into Scott and Adam's dad in Blackburn town centre today. Proud man, his two starting at Lincoln. Says the news from the training ground is positive, JDT a lot more modern, likes his one touch/two touch, faster moving game than the dinosaur TM.

It is now. Jack built the stadium for PL football, until the Loons rocked up, the ground was absolutely right. 30,000 against Liverpool, I think the highest attendance. Another Loon achievement.....we don't thank you.

Smelt gorgeous though.

The pitch was mint.

I wish Maggot had taken a tour of the ground. The staff were absolutely lovely, the facilities brilliant. Wanted to buy one of the Stanley/Rovers pins from the Accy supporters club for me and son, sold out very quickly, the seller went away and found one, then the guy selling them gave us his, so I gave them a tenner. Bowland beer on tap, pie and a pint for 6 quid. As far as the games were concerned, Stanley in the first game were lively. This was our first competitive match, and we we were okay, hit the post (I think), at the other end, good save from their keeper. Second game, I would have hoped we had more quality than their second string. Great weather, great day out.

Talk about a war chest.....does that involve selling BB-D? I'd like to think JDT would have been made promises, but with our owners track record? Nothing certain.

I do think Anel should change his surname....

I would love Van Hecke permanently. He was awesome. Committed, despite not being our player!

Totally agree. £718 for me and my 22 year old son, £31/per match. Sounds good value.....when I factor in fuel at an all time high, travel from Clitheroe, hot dog/drink for him, pint for me, we are probably up to £50 per match. The actual result of that is.....£1,150. Waggott explain your pricing policy? I have a decent job. but I also have a brain. Not spending that to watch mid-table Championship football, and that doesn't include the odd away game.

£300,000? I'll take the job tomorrow for £100,000 less. Just put it out there, I can put my feet up on the desk, five days a week. Bargain.

I'm not prepared to pay over £700 for me and my 22 year old in the JW upper outer. Ridiculous money. Odd games we will go to. Need to see how the new man does, what players, Maggot still has a lot of questions to answer after 11-years plus of carnage. New manager great excuse to reduce prices, get bums on seats, 12-15,000 ST sales. His short sightedness is staggering, but no doubt done to impress the idiots.

Most positive appointment since they rocked up. I wish him well.

Maggot's interviewed himself, and he's got the job!

So as usual we will be left with the dross!

Ferguson fills me with dread, another punt, from the idiots. If proved to be the appointment, time will tell, but I'm not confident.

Whatever, they will fuck it up yet again.

But that is the point, 293,000, but in the shadow of Leeds, they are are a division further down, but have made an effort. No effort at all from deadwood Ewood.

Speaking to a Bradford fan at court this afternoon, they have sold 13,000 already. And he says the football has been awful!

Welcome back to hell.

All the Burnley fans I speak to are very bleak about going down.

2-0 Toon!!

Leeds 1-0.
