Burnley fan when younger

So buying a 25year old healthy player gets slated, but bringing back a fat overweight sicknote would be welcomed would it???

get over it, hes gone

It's not me who want's to get over it fella, your the one who's got some personal problem with him.

Keep the burnley rentboy at Birmingham

fat arrogant idiot

No, bring him home, he's a Rovers fan and hell of a footballer.

Any ideas as to how many we have actually sold though??

Come on Lee you must know?

You know what they say, no news is good news

I'm a proper northener, I've got a Whippet!

Forget the booze bus, what about flying down?

Gav's booze bus will be making a few trips next season, wonder where we'll be going early doors? London trips are best done by train but we'll maybe stretch to Reading as its a new venue.

PS,

No half pints from Chorley who throw up in the mini bus this season either........

Alright "big boy"........nevermind we'll stretch to reading, what's up with a sunny fratton park??

Thanks for that rover groo, obviously hardly anybody knew the man, but the thing is, he was one "of us"

Still no updates on numbers sold?

Latest update........Burnley have sold 6,705

Sick of all this transfer rumour stuff

How many season tickets have we sold?................reaches for tin hat

The last 18 months of Souey's reign at ewood was an absolute disaster. His constant falling out with top players was just bloody suicide, this obviously led to poor team morale and that was plain to see in the dross that was being served up on the pitch.

However, that will not take away the good memories we should have of the man.

The promotion season, worthy trophy and a top 6 finish in the prem must count for something, and on a personal note I will never forget him on the touchline at celtic, jacket undone chest out and going to war with the less than friendly baying mob behind him.

Good lad Souey and good luck!

Another reason for buying a season ticket is to guarantee yourself a ticket for uefa final............dont you think?

i'll bring 'rod stewart's greatest hits!'

All we need now is beer and battered sausages

All setting off from Gav's

yeh nice one, a few hundred limo's on the go t' Gretna.

Rovers are set to announce (tomorrow) a great offer for season ticket holders.

My guess it will be something to do with european matches.

A true classic!

Can still see that heaving mass of green and black on darwen end.

what did nelsen win????????????????????????????????

Battle of Trafalgar?

I'm panicking.

I'm trying to renew today, but the system isn't taking my email address and password. It isn't even emailing me my password or details when requested.

Anybody else had similar problems?

Had the same problem a couple of weeks ago. Rang the ticket office and sorted it over phone (2 mins of a job)

Rumour has it, no Kewell, Crouch or Stevie G.

Still got a feeling we're gonna get egged.

They are probably the 3 Waggy had out with him last night.

Sorry for going off topic earlier.

Rovers WILL NOT LOSE sunday and a point may yet again be enough with other results going our way. COME ON ROVERS!!!!

The quid a kid game the other week worked with an extra 2,000 or so.

I understand it brings next to nothing money wise, but to have so many "extra" young bums on seats has to be the way forward.

Heskey?

Here are the top ten crowds as I can find them since the 94/95 season:

1) Liverpool 24/2/96    30,895

2) Newcastle 8/5/95      30,545

3) Fulham 11/5/02      30,487

4) Man Utd 22/12/02    30,475

5) Man Utd 12/5/99      30,436

6) Bolton    3/2/96        30,419

7) Newcastle 26/12/96  30,398

8) Man Utd 23/10/94      30,260

9) Liverpool 13/9/03      30,074

10) Tottenham 30/12/95  30,004

(EDIT:FOUND A MATCH V NEWCASTLE 30,717 8/4/96 2nd highest)

Of these crowds, 20 of the top five and 3 of the top 10 have come within the last4 years.Also,3 of the top five are the last home match of the season.Just for  yucks and grins, here is the second ten again as i could find it:

11) Newcastle 31/1/00    29,946

12) Man city    7/5/00    29,913

13) Arsenal  15/3/03    29,840

14) Man Utd  22/8/01      29,836

15) Arsenal  27/4/96      29,834

16) Celtic      14/11/02    29,698

17) Man Utd  1/5/04        29,616

18) Newcastle 26/12/04  29,271

19) Liverpool  28/8/02    29,207

20) Man Utd  22/1/03    29,048

EDIT MAN UTD 28/9/95  29,843

I'm sure there are holes in these number(meaning some games I've overlooked have a greater attendance than these listed).does anyone know if the club has an official list of the top attended matches?

I was shocked that so many of the second ten are in this decade and not the previous one.

CRAP???

To watch Rovers play with the amount of pride and passion they have shown this season has given me as much pleasure as any season in the last .....well, too many seasons to mention actually.

***GAV`S £50 BET UPDATE***

A poor crowd of only 20410 bothered to turn up & watch this dire Lancashire derby.

Seems like most people decided to watch it at home or in the pub (which is what i should`ve done) I spent £30 (ticket, pie & pint) & came away feeling rather short changed. Anyway, here`s how Gav`s £50 bet looks:-

Rovers   average home league gate is now 20261 after 16 games (up 10)

Wigan`s average home league gate is 20904 after 16 games

(Rovers are an average of 643 behind with 3 home games left each)

Rovers   total home league attendances stand at 324172

Wigan`s total home league attendances stand at 334462

(Rovers are 10290 behind)

with only 3 home games left each, for Gav to win his bet Rovers have to get 3430 or more people each game than Wigan.

Rovers   have to play:- Liverpool, Chelsea & Man City

Wigan have :-BIG club, Villa & Pompey

Can it be done??

Wigan's attendance today: 18,669
