In January, more or less a done deal.

I struggle to understand why the opposition don't score from our screw ups more often, we send out enough invitations. I mean who in their right mind would include Ayala in playing fancy triangles in our own area, often from our own goalkick/pass, it's simply madness and they are JDT instructions. The said triangle also includes a keeper who normal distribution is somewhat lacking....

I didn't turn off but said to myself he'd miss. He hadn't kicked the fucking ball since coming on. AND he took the ball and demanded taking it. Useless pleb

I cam only assume that this friggin crap is due to players following orders

You lost him there

I just watched that too, good pace and can cross.

2 am I'm watching an old Sexton Blake movie to fill in time.

The game is on Sky and also being broadcast in many overseas locations. It appears it will not be on Rovers TV. I don't know about those places not carrying it on local TV, so called dark countries. I live in one but no worries Rovers, I'll be watching live. Thank you Google.

A Darwen end full of Dingles and Diaz netting one or even two there. Friggin lovely.

It will be down to cost, the extended have to be obtained from somewhere. Also they should get a better build in video player, one that allows going back in say 10 second jumps. Trying that as an estimate on a mobile is nigh impossible with the current set up.

Fantastic people, well done to all who made this possible.

84 Nuttall St. The body was found when house demolished for the new Ewood. Found a link https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/news/6041974.killer-thought-body-buried-good/

Sorry to see Wilder sacked. I wanted him to continue his task of destroying Boro, he was doing rather well.

Good point. No roof on the BBE so a 1950s photo or early 1960. As you will know the roof went on with money from the 1960 FA Cup run.

Thing is they cannot decide that. The player will do what's best for himself, as he should What GB does do reconfirm is that we are a development club looking to sell for profit which fits in nicely with his academy based background. Still time will tell.

Good pics. The one of the old ground is just about the view I had from my Uncles allotment on the hill. I came across 2 old aerial views. The older one shows some of the old allotment sheds on the hill but I'm sure my Uncles was nearer to Kirby Rd and the other side of the first 'gulley'. The newer one looks like landscaping after allotment removal and prior to tree planting etc.

The Hundred is simply a grift. The Vitality should have been targeted to make it more family friendly or whatever term is currently in fashion. There was no need to invent a new competition and dress it up in new rules, driven only by greed. On the county game - playing less competitive games does not produce better players, in any sport. It's a nice spin though by those after the cash of The Hundred.

That's fair. Personally I don't rate him but happy to be proven wrong, as I was about Hedges who has turned out more than decent.

That's the one! I hope too but just don't expect much.

Above Sunderland, thank you Preston, and equal points with Burnley. Good day despite the actual performance standard.

Szmodics .. he is not good enough to be even on the bench. That is why.

It's the result that matters, the rest was utter crap. Szmodics ...... WTF, he points more than what's his name, runs but does SFA, no I'll leave it at that

So did they all take a 2 week holiday and meet up at 2.45 pm and those who remembered their boots get a game. Bloody awful, as soon as a Rover tries anything more creative that sideways, backwards it messes up.

I'm sure that both club's will organise with local organisations to make it a fitting and special occasion. I can't see any rescheduling happening although I would not be against that.

Sam G may be in for a busy day
