....what about... police intelligence?

Agreed....

Agreed. I know for a fact that people have made this very point to Steve Waggott. I think there is something about it costing the club more to do late sales, so they are trying to discourage the late buying behaviour.....

Was it the beginning of last season or the one before?...He did look out of shape. I remember someone jokingly saying he had a look of Elvis ..at the end! I think TM and DG, himself, are on record as saying how much fitter he has been at the start of this season.

Maybe the surcharge is meant to be a bit like the original speed camera with a low threshold...It may seem excessive to fine drivers for doing 33 mph or whatever, but it changes the culture in the end. The trouble is it brings such a negative response from supporters, who are only just buying into the club again..

Eek...and TM 's contract is still not sorted..

It is odd all right, but I agree. Remember them singing "who t..f are Blackburn Rovers?"...as if they felt they needed to take us down from our lofty heights ...under Venky's!

So needless and wasteful......This rejuvenation has the feel of Furphy's revivalism in the early 70's....

Yes... Definite pattern..Don't forget Fleetwood away. We should have been out of sight by half time...then they equalise....and only a worldie by Smallwood got the win we deserved...

Thanks. Enjoyed that. I will always have a soft spot for him, but you certainly touched on his fatal flaws. Remember how a certain Mr Dinnis lambasted his lack of coaching and preparation in that last year. I will never know how much was down to Dunny's lifestyle and how much was down to the way Souey mishandled the situation....

Good to read. I think TM and the players deserve it...hope you think the same when you see them play and revitalise the Rovers habit. Boycotting left a big gap in my own (sad!) life, I have to admit.

Just thinking..Does Nixon ever do the Spurs link or is it only in other papers?

Levy is a notoriously difficult to extract decent transfer fees from.... Someone is pushing this link...

That would have been brilliant..

I was just wondering whether the paper had announced the wrong DH...then or now...

Weird..According to the LT..he died in 2003, aged 54. It even records a tribute from Ronnie Clayton...

I know we have the red button problem, but I reckon we could normally count on a decent away following in over 40% of our home games in this division...if you include the likes of Bolton and Wigan, as well as Villa, Derby Stoke and Brum etc. However, I guess we are likely to be formally on Sky for all our games with the biggest potential away support...

No, only if someone placed that brolly in a strategic position....

I was having a laugh really...but TM is just using his comments about goals in training to manage the situation. The inescapable truth is that TM clearly doesn't think he is good enough.....yet...

Bruno Ribeiro was the Brazilian Denis Irwin....in training!

Quite. You can't have someone maintaining a prestigious national post, if he is going to come out with offensive crap like that...unless, of course, he was managing the German soccer team in 1936....

Hahahaha.. A million candles burning for the help that never came...

So do I . Aint life a paradox, though, because I agree with Stuart as well...

Love this. Absolutely fantastic. We were at the other end, so we couldn't see as much. The pause for a drink of water though...Class, Ritchie!!

Haha, are you Kafka in disguise?
