Can I just take this opportunity to say HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Thursday am flight from Heathrow to Amsterdam (haven't decided between car, taxi or train between cities.) Hotel in Rotterdam- stayed in it before- the Westin Friday pm flight home. Then, joy of all joys- WATFORD AWAY on the Sunday. Without footy traffic a whole 15 minutes from my house.

Hotels, flights and cars all booked!!!

Krakow 22,500 BA miles plus £61.90

Probably quicker to fly to Luxembourg or Basel and drive or get a train.

Not Poland in December. Been there done that- FREEZING!!! Would like somewhere hot as well!!

Remember this is the same person who told you all Wigan had scored the penalty before they.............didn't!!

No worries- there are a few of us who'd have loved it to be true

Read above.

Do you live your entire life drunk? Almost nothing you say makes any sense whatsoever, so I can only imagine you're drunk. The other possibility is too horrible to contemplate.

Very much she! Now- would probably support both equally if they played. Thought I would before but the ba*tard's behaviour turned it heavily in favour of Celtic. Mark Hughes, being a generally lovely human being who is both fair and lovely (did I mention he's lovely) would mean that I wouldn't be forced into the invidious position of having to despise one manager and therefore not support the team!!

I thought it was very rude of Rovers to arrange a game when I couldn't make it. I'm on stage in amateur opera at the time!

Want to go to an away game or two myself. Don't have much holiday left.

Much as I'd like to and think it would be fitting, even I can't blame him for that!!!!

It's £15 for season ticket holders, £18 for non season ticket holders. But admittedly neither my two friends nor I can make it

Sorry- almost everyone I know lives in the same world as me! (Although there are obviously a few aliens out there!!!)

We're all on a fixed income until our next pay rise (or pension increase). However your point was that it was difficult for 2 unbudgeted things to be catered for in a week. I merely said that neither of them were unbudgetable.

But the Wigan game was a Premiership game (therefore shouldn't have been unbudgeted) and it WAS known from last season that we'd have 2 European games, so you had at least 4 months to budget for them!!!

From £15????

Doing a quick and dirty calculation, Rovers probably received less than half the revenue for the Salzburg game than it did for the Wigan one.

Will explain this again in words of one syllable. Hated Souness from his Liverpool v Scotland days. At that point had no idea who he supported. Disliked him even more once he became one of the most inflammatory Rangers managers in recent times, have gone on record as saying wouldn't have minded Alex McLeish or Walter Smith as manager although one was cr*p (just picked the wrong one!!!) His appointment got up my nose because I thought we could have done better because he was a manager at the end of his career looking for a big pay day rather than a manager at the start of his career looking for success. Oh, and he reinstated Darren Peacock in his first game as manager "because he'd heard of him" rather than waiting until he'd seen the team play. That was indicative of how I knew he'd be as a manager. I stuck with it even in the season he sold Dunn and Duff (because I'd already paid for my season ticket) but only attended a few games - most of which were shockingly inept. The following season I decided enough was enough and I couldn't bear to watch Souness "inspired" teams struggle to get to 40 points AGAIN. Fortunately the fool Shepherd paid actual cash money for the useless tw*t and we got a decent manager. Therefore was without a season ticket for precisely 4 weeks.

Tris- that's a lie you try to perpetuate. I never ONCE in the entire time I was at Rovers when that man was, sang or chanted his name. I despised him from day one. I did sit almost beside you at Spurs (fortunately my friend was in the way) but if you noticed- which you CLEARLY didn't- while you people were singing "Souness's Blue and white Army", I started at the Blue and white Army bit. I could probably get at least a dozen people to confirm that. I cheered the team- NEVER him. I enjoyed Sofia, it had very nice shoe and clothes shops, but could see how desperately he wanted us to lose- which all those round me (at least those who weren't so blinkered that they wanted to have his love babies- ie YOU)were commenting on with the mysifying substitutions leaving that great big hole down the middle of the park for Sofia to waltz through (oh and the big article in the paper telling us when we were all on our way).

It's no use, Tris. What the "walk-on" (or part-time) supporters want is to be treated like (or seemingly better than) season ticket holders without giving the club any loyalty in return. There are many excuses why people don't come. None of them are the club's fault. It could be argued that any circumstance these people have is down to their own choices and since they WERE their own choices, that to then whinge on is a bit rich.

Problem was, Rovers lost both legs. And however wonderfully Rovers played, the only thing that mattered was the little round thing going into the big square netty thing. Celtic did it in Glasgow, and in Blackburn. Rovers didn't manage it either place.

We'd beat Rangers
