  1. To be fair - he was a promising signing (came with good reviews) but not all players kick on, but these are the sort of signings that can work out and help us find a real gem.
  2. When does he become a free agent? Isn't it any day now?
  3. It makes a huge difference to smaller clubs when they get a bigger team friendly. I do think more of the PL clubs should make the effort - a sell out, secondary spend and a chance to show locals the ground is often the biggest cash injection of the season. It is a credit to Rovers that they have always been good to do this.
  4. My first ever match mid 80's! Both now in pretty much the same position!
  5. Presumably the offers (or just enquiries) aren't huge to purchase the club (we lose circa £20-£30m a season), limited / poor (potential) attendances etc - it doesn't scream big offer, so perhaps it is a simple as they are wanting a bigger return? Or perhaps they worry it could influence the outcome of the court case?
  6. Both in and out of the team, injuries, difficult loan spell already... Hard to see clubs queuing up, but if they knuckled down and kept fit them are good squad players. Suspect will be with us right up to the transfer window closes and then off to Scotland on loan.
  7. I am relaxed whether he stays or goes - he would have signed a contract had his asks not be too great. If a 'bigger' club can match his expectations then fair enough, but whilst I think he is a decent Championship player I wouldn't want us to use too much of our limited wage budget.
  8. Oh dear... The club should be doing promotional leaflets around Blackburn and local areas - delivered by the Royal Mail promoting them. (Include sponsors in the mailing and that will cover the costs). I have seen a few clubs really push the season tickets like this with good returns. (I have fed this idea into the club a few times).
  9. Yes - one of best signings - good times!
  10. Yes - 22 league defeats, which in every other season of the PL would have seen them relegated.
  11. Anyone know how the season tickets are going compared to last year?
  12. To be fair, it is a good way of helping the smaller local clubs - £2k (or whatever fee is agreed) soon adds up and helps their budget.
  13. Okay - thank you to everyone who has responded. On the losses, I listen to the 'Price of Football' podcast and they have set out how even the best run Championship clubs (better run, bigger gates than us etc) still lose significant money - so whoever took over will need deep pockets to even standstill.
