Its been an extended close season ..in difficult times ..things are not going to be upto scratch . When fans finally get to come back into Ewood im sure the weeds/moss will be removed outside the Blues bar. If not ..then maybe have a gripe.Til then ..

..and half of BRFCS !!

I think some of our younger generation would have a fit today !

Ollie Waite the Physio has left Rovers to join Crystal Palace today .

Most on here obviously too young (or turned a blind eye ) to remember the weeds growing in the BBE urinals in the 80s on match days ?

As flat as a witches tit .. Spot on ..its the "match day" experience that I look forward to most ..from 12-30 to 6-30pm ..all that's going to change big style ..and not for the better.

6000 could quite easily be the maximum. B End - holds 8000 ..so allow fans to sit on every other row ..this then becomes a capacity of just 4000. Then fans to sit in say ?...every fourth seat on these rows ..this soon shoots down to just 1000 for the entire B End.

My lads mate got the Home one ..had it on in the pub very nice..Some of the European / World ones are class

Correct ..my next door neighbour being one !

.that was before Covid .. This is Burnley s approach now ..Lets hope Luton haven't splurged all their cash from ST just in case refunds ae required. Due to the Coronavirus pandemic and the current social restrictions 2020/2021 season tickets have now been taken off sale until the club receives more information from the relevant authorities.

The Holy City ...get it right ..

Bell thigh problem ..

City fans surmising Tosin to step with the young lad Garcia pushing for a move to Barca ..

Exactly ..obviously been doing it throughout the season and Fulham the only club to be bright enough to expose it. No wonder the Brentford manager refused to blame Raya ..

The goalkeeping coach should take some of the blame then for the goal last night. Obviously all season Rayas starting position on set pieces has been similar and Fulham coaches highlighted this to their players prior to the game (Cairney confirmed this in his interview) and Parker was seen telling Bryan to hit that near post in his convo just prior to taking the free kick.

Fair play to Fulham . I think Cairney pointed out in his interview after the game that Raya was very "aggressive" at set pieces and the Fulham staff had noticed this and told the Fulham players if you get chance hit his near post. Footage of Parker telling Bryan to do exactly that on the touchline prior to taking the free kick proves that.

So why throw cash at something like Rovers now when we know the economic damage will increase and we re going to be struggling for cash ? Better keeping hold of our money now and seeing if what they offer is acceptable and affordable ..and workable !

But then K-Hod getting accused of not delivering on what they proposed if the "scenarios" put forward doesnt materialise and people have coughed up the money?? Damned if they do ..damned if they dont this Club as we well know. They got a bit of a slating when they introduced the cardboard cut out scheme ...people saying how dare they when ST refunds werent on the table . Imagine what fans will be spewing if stuck with iFollow after shelling out 350 quid when fans arent let back in for whatever reason..

But ..with so many scenarios ..at the moment the club has no idea what scenarios there actually could be until the Govt makes a decision on letting fans back in and in what numbers ? So surely best to simply wait. Its a different world today RF99 ..the days of just religiously signing up every season without sometimes batting an eyelid have gone im afraid...regardless of what situation our beloved Rovers are in ..theres a bigger picture for a lot of people to actually consider.

Again RF99 ..nothing stopping those WANTING to or in a financial position to make a donation to the club if happy to and they think its for the good of the club . By buying something that may not exist and the reluctance for refunds over four games last season anyone signing up to a ST right now are running the risk of "donating" 350 quid. So go ahead give the club the money. As for the moral stance maybe the club is or aint thinking that way who knows . The logistics of also fitting in 8500 ST into the ground isnt straight forward either. People WILL have to swap seats if not stands ..lots of people sat towards the ends of possibly four stands with views that arent the best because people may have to sit say three to four seats apart on a row and possibly the club may have to miss a row out every other row backwards to so call social distance .There will be a lot not willing to sign up for this and quite rightly are awaiting just to see how the hell seating arrangements will work before paying up front. The question is would people hand over money for say a new car or T.V. only to be told sorry its doesnt exist at the moment and if it doesnt materialise you could lose your money ..but thank you all the same..? A ST is after all an actual product.

Of course there should have been an option for a refund...or the nine games on ifollow. I wasnt interested in the refund ..i chose in my own head the ifollow will do for the remainder of the season ..and id two ST holder in the householder so lost out twice if i wanted to think that way. But do i want to cough up 700 quid for two season tickets now and get lumbered with an iFollow package ? No ..if i want just iFollow id buy it and not bother attending games! The bottom line is there is no product to buy. Doesnt mean i wont buy one ! Will you get to sit in the stand you want ? Will you get to/be allowed to sit with friends ? Sit with family ? how can all these questions be answered until the club know the situation in hand and work out a system ?

Maybe because Luton ST holders got a refund for last season they have more faith in putting their money back in on the understanding they will again get a refund for games not attended. , Meanwhile ..we didnt have that option yet some are asking to throw the club 350 quid with no idea what they get for that or will ever see it again if the season is a non starter for attending supporters.

But surely staying in the Championship makes Wigan a more desirable club to buy ???
