The foreign teams would give him a better chance to stand out for the national side too.

What species do you think plays and watches football? Daleks?

I have around 6 shirts that are all of infinitely better quality than anything I have bought from the club (and all cheaper): One is a classicfootballshirts type, two are from FootballTown and three (maybe four?) are from this very site. I will never step foot on Ewood again in a current club replica shirt because they are simply not worth it.

Wasn’t Derek Keighley his grandad or something?

I’d say, yeah once police instruct you to leave, then leave. Until then, all the club can do is ask (at which point you ‘should’ leave, but could then just wait around until police ask), and remain protesting on the pavements around the ground.

‘Up the Rovers’ said no Rovers fan ever. Sounds Claret-y to me.

I’m fairly sure that by law it remains a public place even if the land is privately owned, as long as it is accessible to the public (ie: as long as the gates are open). A protest outside the ground (within the gates) ought to be fine, and any ‘moving on’ would create a story.

Not a death, but a century (and a couple of days) alive. Thanks for the joy you brought my grandma, my mum, me, and my children. Happy belated 100th Birthday Dick Van Dyke! Needs an honorary knighthood before he passes imo. I’d also love him to get one last chance at an Oscar, even if it’s a fix. Somebody cast him as Scrooge or something. Or (plot twist) cast him as himself in his own biopic.

What kind of legal protest would you attend?

My others: JDT, A. Wharton, Finneran, and Phillips - collectively ’what could’ve been?’ JDT specifically for being the man to publicly ‘out’ Suhail. It feels like a significant turning point against these owners. Also every group that has done something individually or collectively to try and make this shitty situation with this shitty ownership better. On that note (semi-serious): Glen Mullan - the main man to put his head above the parapet in the face of these absolute bastards AND the reason we bought my favourite player of this era: Jordan Rhodes.

He died just before Venkys took over, think he must’ve known.

The problem is that it isn’t particularly awful weather. It’s just typical winter up north weather.

Actually, opinions do need justifying. That’s how you gain or lose credibility.

You clearly can’t, if your memory is making you disagree with a fact.

If only we had the gumption of a club of the status of, say, Rochdale. More determined to sort out the problem immediately rather than risk it killing more winter games. We as a MINIMUM should be reimbursing all away fans tickets and travel, AND making plans to sort it out immediately and groundsharing in the meantime, even if that means with Blackpool.
