IHB-I was just listening to I Spy this morning and thinking what a good song.

Wigan V Rovers at Ewood. I would be disappointed if we don't win by three goals. And here is this weeks UNUSUAL PHOTO OF THE OTHER TEAMS MANAGER Paul shortly before his shift on the door at Maximes.

I received a letter from Rovers last week. I have a season ticket in the Darwen End, and one of the points in the letter was that there will be no season tickets sold for the Darwen End next season, with the plan to have unreserved seating available for home fans. All they need now is a cash turnstile...and hey presto!

An 8-0 win would take us into forth place. I say go for it Rovers.

The Jack Walker Stand was originally a total non-smoking stand, but was later changed to no smoking in the seats, I guess because of it either being un workable or unpopular.

The White Bull on Livesey Branch Road has loads of ace photos, paintings etc of old Rovers teams and players in the pool room round the back. Dillo Dillo, have you thought about organising a night out with other members while you are over here? I'll buy you a pint.

Oumar Konde just came on as a sub for Hibs in the SFA Cup semi versus Hearts.

They were are still outside!!!

A bargain for £5M. God bless Souness, best bit of business he ever did for Rovers.

There was a small to medium scale kick off at the bottom of the Darwen End on the front line.

Jesus wept. Thats really shocking. I thought we were bad.

Hilarious, esp the Noddy Holder one. Brum in The Guardian Gallery!

Niall Quinns Disco Pants Are The Best, They Go up To The Top Of His Chest Money to burn some people...

Sounds more like his pocket. Tight get.

They're too busy robbing money of John Paul George and Ringo

Is Bob 'The Voice Of Rovers' Fleming a pundit now? OOh I like him.

Seem to remember getting a plastic bottle launched on my head from the upper Darwen End.

Bob, that is not Allardichio, you nurke. Its that Bob Caragees fella.

Bryan Robson. An excellent knowledge of international football, having played 80 odd games for England. Players would respect him for the man was a brilliant footballer. Used to working with overpaid nancys and prima-donnas having spent several years at Middlesbrough. Worked wonders with WBA with zero cash. Wouldn't cost a lot of cash to pay, just a crate of ale and and a bottle of Jack Daniels every week and he would be happy.

After Coles goal, the whole Leppings Lane end , around 5,000 of us all singing Andy Cole, Andy Cole, Andy Andy Cole...Gets the ball, scores a goal, Andy Andy Cole! Went over the tops in a car. Stopped at Old Glossop for a pint and a curry , in a pub/curry house. Classic.

Joined last year Den. If you need me to help on this issue, let me know. As a footnote, many lapsed fans and similar would see a return to a cash turnstile as s concession to the pre Sky days, a nod to the people who think that football isn't what it used to be. Which, of course it isn't.

Well Den it appears Rovers dont want to help them selves here. All those problems could have answers if they really wanted it. I suspect the clubs main sticking point is Lost data. Club image – PL or conference? At the moment our crowds are headed towards conference levels!

How about the Darwen End lower tier is non season tickets for one season as a trial, make all turnstiles on this stand cash only and unreserved seating? Or upstairs in the Darwen End? Nowt happening there most weeks?

Not a lot really, but mentally its another barrier. Have you been to the ticket office on match days? There is always a decent length queue, and it takes a while to serve people who say oh I want it third seat along and on the fifth row , not too noisy, in the shade blah blah. I suppose to qualify my feelings, it should a cash turnstile on each stand, with unreserved seating available. Of which there are plenty right now. If Rovers advertised Cash turnstiles, no queueing just roll up on the day I' sure it would help.

Which is all the astounding to see these figures... Football365
