  1. Anyone managed to buy a "Match Pass" as opposed to the full subscription? If yes - how did you do it??
  2. Also can't find any link to "buy Match Pass" - any ideas (support suggested i write an email to "escalate my situation to a level 2")... Have tried multiple browsers, Android and still no joy...
  3. Very early days but an incredibly positive start. Will be interesting to hear/read what TM says after a defeat - if he maintains the honest/straighttalking demonstrated so far then that alone is a huge step forward. Of course results help but also think making him "head coach" was a very shrewd move - fans are (rightly) focusing on his effect on the team rather then trying to get answers about our owners intentions.
  4. Fair enough and agree on the need for the manager (or head coach) to be decent and at least have a sayinin recruitment.
  5. This is the real issue. Both systems can work (in fact i suspect most prem clubs operate this way but discretely with a "transfer panel/Groupon"). Rovers problem is that we appointed donkeys for coaches/managers and agents/pundits/spivs as being responsible for player recruitment. In both cases the club (and possibly Venkys) have @#/? away money on dross. So i would suggest that both systems would work with the right people and the DOF solution does give some continuity as managers tend to have a short shelf life at our club these days (for obvious reasons) Is Senior a decent and honest DOF is the big question?
  6. Appreciate what Gary Bowyer did - not sure we are talking about him though?? Lambert - looked the part, seemed to have solid ideas, tougher on fitness but think was brought in to make the playoffs as "a last shot" and results were underwhelming. Graham aside - how have his transfers done? Mowbray at this point needs/deserves our full support. Nail om head about defence and hard to undo shoddy fitness in March! Think is also an element of unfairness too in that Mowbray s record is pretty much a match for Lambert and a Huge leap Up from Coyle.
  7. There is a glaring problem here. We all pretty much know that Cheston did not appoint/choose Coyle. The real question is who did and why do they still have influence?? Edit: forgot to add "and how do we get rid of them!"
  8. Don't be sensible :-) Personally - ok with Mowbray and his record is pretty much ok for the market we are shopping in. Was honestly expecting much worse (sad really)
  9. Is actually possible to create an original and humorous chant in the current PC climate?
  10. Hello from an expat living in Sweden, have supported Rovers since 1981 when i stood in the blackburn end underneath the pigeons (why my father chose a spot where pigeons always crapped is something i have never understood!) Remember the days of taking a thermos in to the ground and the bunch of bananas that landed beside Alex Williams... Times have changed. Nowadays i get to watch every league match live on tv and aim to visit Ewood at least once a season. My pet peeve is people who purport to speak for me.
