  1. In honour of 150 years: £15 per ticket, pie and peas in the hospitality lounges. £1.50 big screen on the pitch, fill the JW Stand
  2. Agreed. All I’d say to that is next season depends entirely on how we deal with half a team fucking off.
  3. I recall being told if we had a chance of the playoffs going into the last day, then Ismael has been a success. It feels both a success and not, so far. But he has earned til January before he is driven out by lies to a relegation threatened Birmingham City…
  4. Feel dirty saying it but we need Burnley and Boro to win next week 🤮 as well as win ourselves, so it’s incredibly unlikely.
  5. Not to pre-empt, but Andy Cole might like a chance to claim his £30k back from Swag?
  6. No, but only because he steered it into Ewood Park and left it in such a state that we’ve never been back to where he found us (13th in PL) or left us (2nd in Championship).
  7. It’s a Morecambe and Wise joke: eh? You’re adorable B! But you’re beautiful etc
  8. Which in itself would not be needed if the club had been managed properly from the off.
  9. Because we’re Rovers and like making it difficult for ourselves.
  10. Even playing Devil’s Advocate, I can only offer a heavily caveated one: We have hugely increased the number of academy prospects playing in the team, and therefore creating valuable assets to sell.* *Because we are playing at a lower standard of football, where the likes of Gavin Gunning, Aaron Doran, Keith Treacy used to be loaned to. Now we play at that standard and they play for us instead of the minnows we used to send them to.
  11. I watched them from the concourse before the Millwall game, did they not appear on the big screen?
  12. Depends what he wants from his career: Glory or money? Glory is rare but the money was flung at him. Daft not to take it in an incredibly short career.
  13. Almost suggests you liked it the first time 😅
  14. Good to hear the smattering of Venkys Out chants still
  15. All going through Brittain today, created two superb chances.
  16. It’s literally rust. No pride in the ground or their own name.
  17. Gutted for Rose, only because he is my favourite golfer, and what a superb round he put together today. But it is SO cool for Europe to have it’s first Grand Slam Champion. Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods… Arise Sir Rory of McIlroy!
  18. Genuinely when they were so excited about the early announcement, I thought they’d finally listened and gone for ‘£150 all over the ground to celebrate 150 years of Rovers’. Nope.
  19. Exactly. It wasn’t a positive having to hear Steve K***’s bullshit every other fucking day. On the other hand, while it was rarely through official club channels, I quite enjoyed hearing Broughton speak. Usually on some podcast or other.
