Understandable, I think it’s a case of crossed wires and misunderstanding, so thank you for the reply 🙂 I do feel that JM was keen as mustard as recently as the Girona game, so it did appear very out of the blue to hear via mutuals that he’s no longer Chair. Hope all is well and hopefully WATR carries on its progress. I remain an interested and opinionated member! #WaggottOut re: ticketing, for my views just refer to the original of our wonderful Marketing Prospectus 😅

What is going on at We Are The Rovers? At the AGM I stepped back with the intention being to become a co-opted board member (Heritage) rather than elected, but was subsequently deleted from the WhatsApp group (ooo, bitchy) so I considered myself excommunicated. I didn’t mind this too much as stepping down a touch was precisely because I couldn’t attend many meetings, due to my boys. I was still willing to contribute, but clearly nobody on the board felt I had a voice with any value. Now I’m being told that the Chair has similarly felt ‘encouraged’ to step down? Doesn’t sit right with me after the solid (imo) progress made in the last 6 years after inheriting a board of two fantastic people wishing to step down themselves, so almost an empty room. I’ve given 5 years of volunteering, pioneered the Marketing Prospectus, and been fucked off to one side without any explanation or gratitude, and now the Chair has also stepped away. Don’t get me wrong, change can be needed and be a very good thing, but the nature of these changes hasn’t sat well with me tbh. Can any board members please shed light? I have my own opinions on what (or who) has happened, but I’m open to changing my mind and appreciate I only really know my side of the story.

I think Smackdown from 2001 thru 2005 was first rate, especially when Paul Heyman wrote it. Lesnar, Taker, Mysterio, Angle, Benoit, Eddie, Edge, and the emergence of Cena and Batista.

Personally feel it would’ve made more sense to open the ends and close the JW.

I’ll try my wife’s laptop when I get a chance. Literally only the Football Messageboard page. Bizarre.

Did all that:

I’m afraid so, tried on Safari too To clarify, I can go directly to a thread I have already accessed from my browser history, but it got annoying after a week.

Still having issues myself accessing the ‘Football Meesageboard’ part of the site, just presents me with a blank screen and has done since late August. I can’t see or read that section let alone moderate it 😅

Nice nod to Jimmy Hoffa.

Don’t mind admittedly that I popped like fuck for Rock’s unexpected return! Was watching live, giving my youngest a bottle of milk and nearly threw him through the ceiling! And for 51, he runs the ropes fantastically!

Who knew a bit of knowledge about the locals could go so far, eh?

Nope, stepped down at last AGM for family reasons.

Is VLL not in turn owned by VOL?

How typical of football and society at large at the moment: the Women’s World Cup thread ending with discussion about the creep that sexually assaulted one of the winners.

If enough Trust members suggest/support the idea…

Only bit I disagree with because surely all players registered to the club should be eligible to play. It’s a squad game and nobody but the manager/head coach should get to decide who plays.

To add (may not be related): I similarly am unable to load the message board page (https://www.brfcs.com/forums/forum/4-blackburn-rovers-fans-messageboard/) but CAN load every other page on the site. Irritatingly having to Google ‘brfcd transfer’ etc to get to pages. Google Chrome Iphone 14

No authority, sadly. None at all. Read the table plan. READ IT AND UNDERSTAND IT!!!

How was it?

Most linos are themselves referees.

Good or bad?

On the cheek maybe, but not the lips. Consent is still a thing.

Arsenal walked out for the second half to Broken Out in Love. Tribute to Wyatt in some way?

Not had any issues since I started using Chrome, but Safari gave me issues intermittently for years.

Safari is a bag of shite. ‘Use chrome’ solves most problems, I find.
