What's that got to do with the Club? Complain all they like the club was here before they were and is doing nothing wrong filling its seats up.

So who decides what a positive result is? Coventry at home soon. What is a 'positive result' out of that one? Or does it depend what happens tomorrow?

So that's QPR, Millwall and Plymouth who have all managed to defeat the mighty Leicester in the last few weeks whilst battling for their Championship lives. We've got our chance to do the same. Over to the manager and players. But before then we'll have the local media and negative brigade telling us how it's mission impossible and how Leicester are unstoppable.

If only we had some empty spare land close to Ewood that we could use for parking on matchdays......

I hear the phrase 'positive result' a lot these days. What does it mean? Anything other than a defeat? Or a win? I'd argue that away at Leeds a draw would be a positive result, but at home v Sheffield Wednesday only a win would be a positive result.

Any more than 20,000 these days and they go into a tailspin having to issue warnings about parking, congestion, traffic, queues, bumper crowds etc. Just under 20,000 right in the comfort zone.

True. Interesting the club doesn't acknowledge this fact when marketing and advertising, only when it comes to restricting. I'm struggling to see why John Smith with an Accy postcode and address couldn't buy one. Obviously a Sheffield or Yorkshire postcode is a different matter but suspect the number of Ewood attending Rovers fans who aren't season ticket holders in that group is very small.

'We'll look into it...after the game has passed and the damage is done and it's too late to do anything'

Why can't they just do it by postcode or is that too difficult?

The argument appears to be that if it makes us money, increases noise levels or fills otherwise empty seats then it is worth doing. Slippery slope there

Those in favour where does it stop? I mean we often have 20,000 empty seats at Ewood thanks to Venkys and Waggott, so presumably they'd be happy if we handed away fans all the BBE and Riverside if possible, pocketed loads of money for no benefit to the club and condensed all the home fans into the JW stand. Happy days.

People often talk about potential job losses as a reason we need Venkys to keep funding us rather than risk administration. As though under vile Venkys and Waggott there haven't been any job losses over the last 12 years and as though self-inflicted relegation under them won't result in more. With the likes of Waggott penny pinching everywhere I'd take it as given that those employed at the club are essential roles and probably on as low a wage as we can find and get away with. Hence a setup not fit for purpose. Administration still means the club functions and essential tasks performed. Those here now would probably still be needed in administration.

And in the upcoming summer episode Carter is surplus to requirements / sulking because of a lack of game time and therefore we simply have to move him on and cash in on him How convenient! You heard it here first

All I'll say is that I find it remarkably convenient that all the top earners and players who can attract interest from elsewhere end up becoming 'surplus' to requirements and moved on. Almost as though someone is working their way down a list of the most senior/expensive assets and getting shut one by one. Of course the key issue, regardless of the cause, is we lost another senior pro and had zero intention of replacing him as we slid head first towards League One. £10,000 x 24 weeks is a saving Waggott will be enjoying let's put it that way.

The day they shut the Riverside they will approach it in the same way they did the Darwen End closure. Basically no consultation or advance warning just an announcement that it's shut and 'find somewhere else to sit'. They don't think far enough ahead or care about fans enough to plan for this or run a process of discussing it. They'll just make the decision based on their immediate cashflow and targets and tough sh*t if you don't like it.

I think regardless of whether it tipped JDT over the edge (and I'll maintain until my dying day that the move was 100% financially motivated and nothing at all to do with football) I am certain that offloading your captain in the first few days of the window to a league rival on loan will have had a serious impact on the dressing room. Travis might not have been best mates with JDT but he will have been popular with quite a few in the dressing room I'm sure of that, and when such a decision is made people will rightly start asking questions and be miffed.

Bolton sold 13,000 season tickets for next year. They don't know what league they are going to be in. What are we doing?

Wednesday confirmed a 7000 sellout. Waggott confirmed a Rovers sellout but not on the ticket front. The bad news of being humiliated at Bristol City last night quickly buried by 7000 Owls coming to town and boosting his balance sheets.

Same with Allardyce and Lambert. Never really liked from the off by a large portion of the fanbase and many glad to see the back of them, whereas St Tony, whose first act was taking us down to the third division, should have been given the job for life and will be yearned after for years to come. Looks like Eustace falling into the same bracket. A dismal run of results so far with no end in sight and yet I can see it playing out now - blame JDT for everything, nothing to do with Venkys, Waggott, Eustace, lets all pull together and rebuild in the summer.

This is the Rovers paradox. You'll have scrotes like Waggott making efforts to save a few quid on grass seed or boost ticket sales by a few grand yet longer term their mismanagement of the club on the pitch is costing us tens of millions. Negligence has already seen Lenihan, Rothwell, Diaz waltz off for nothing, next up will be Gallagher and Dolan, and relegation to League One will cost circa £10 million overnight before we get on to ticket sales and sponsorship. A bit like the last few Januarys where a small yet sensible spend may well have been the difference and got us into the top 6 and potential promotion yet they do nothing but weaken us.

Both will surpass us in the near future. Owners who invest and want them to get better, redeveloping their grounds, full houses every week.

I think it will be us and Huddersfield to join Rotherham in League One. Wednesday have proven that they have that fighting spirit and ability to win games when the pressure is on. I am dreading our match against them. Birmingham are poor but in Rowett have a shrewd operator who should have enough to get a win or two from their relatively kind remaining fixtures (Rotherham and Huddersfield to come). Forget about Millwall, QPR and Stoke, they'll be fine. Plymouth a maybe but have two opportunities coming up in Stoke and Millwall both away.

No Championship matches only

Leeds by no means unstoppable as a poor Sunderland side proved on Tuesday and Watford proved recently. But they'll be well up for this especially after dropping those two points at home and after Leicester lost and Ipswich only drew. If we keep the deficit below 3 I'll be surprised.

When the CEO is going public that his ambition is to stay in the division and develop more players just weeks after missing out on the play offs on goal difference and the manager then spends 6 months taking the mick out of him publicly for those comments then yes, it's certainly a culture of failure.
