Ha ha Melanie - Brand New Key

With the greatest respect, although I will agree totally that he does seem to be unlucky with injuries, your weak-boned theory and osteoporosis diagnosis is ill-informed. Probably best to just stick to 'injury prone', which I don't think anybody would argue with. Even that doesn't necessarily mean he isn't 'rugged'.

The facial injury he got was absolutely nothing to do with weak bones. There isn't a human alive that would have withstood that impact without a smashed face to show for it.

Billy Paul - Meehan Mrs Jones (I'll get me coat....)

Ha ha - yeah it wouldn't surprise me mate.

I would be happy to allow a parent and child to use mine on the many weeks I couldn't, I wonder if we could set up a 'buddying' scheme?

I haven't had one for 5 or 6 years now (and even then I can only get to a max of 10 home games a season as I live in Scotland) but I'm going to buy two this season, one for me and one for my sister, simply because I have no other way of supporting the club as such. And because I am extremely lucky enough to be able to afford to do so.

The Beatles - Oh Darling

The Who - Won't Get Fooled Again

Agreed. I think it would be a different matter if the shop were in the town centre or indeed if the ticket office was open.

Nat Phillips? Yes please!!!

The Small Faces - Get Yourself Together

Ten-in-a-row is the only thing that matters to them this season, rightly or wrongly.

Think I'll order mine now to avoid the surge of last-minute applications.

Does anyone know whether there is a LIVE stream of this game?

Who on earth started all these electrical puns?

Sheff Wed away last season

The Jam - Here Comes The Weekend Meant to add - Bruce Foxton turned 65 today - that makes me feel VERY old- in fact a veryoldjamfan Have a good 'un Bruce.

New owners. Nothing less will bring those 10k people back now. Its alright getting a full house for a promotion lap of honour but we could barely get 25k Rovers fans on when we were at the top of our game most weeks so week-in-week-out in the second division it isn't going to happen (hence the 5-0 analogy above). For all his faults Mowbray has been the best of a very bad bunch over the past decade, the common denominator is our absentee owners. How we get rid of them I don't have the answers to either mate, I'm afraid. Maybe we just need to have one lucky season...

Wet Wet Wet - Wishing I Was Lucky

While its difficult to argue with that Merce, I have actually enjoyed plenty of games over the past few weeks. Maybe I was just so glad to see live football again, albeit on a screen rather than at Ewood I'm delirious?

It is linked to what Butty has said above. Short of winning every game 5-0, being regularly involved in games that finish 3-2 or 4-3 either way isn't a bad way of being entertained really. I do agree with you that winning is everything and loved the '1-0' seasons under Howard Kendall but quite a few people here in Scotland have remarked how often Rovers seem to be involved in high scoring games these days. If I were a visitor to the north west looking for a game to take in (once fans are allowed back) I would certainly be tempted by a potential goal-fest more than I would a tight defensive game.

You either missed the point or I didn't make it very well.
