How do we compare to other sides that went from winning positions ?..are we way out ?

This time next week we'll have a good idea whether we're in the running or not I think. Exactly Mark ..its not a sprint ..its a marathon ..an average of 2pts a game should not see us far off .Every team around us is dropping points ..just stay in the pack and keep picking points up.

Too much emphasis on one result. Todays results just prove theres a long way to go. We may have lost ground on PNE TODAY but the result at Brentford maybe a massive plus in games to come. All will be revealed ...

Wtf have the dingles to do with today ??

It is now .

Agree .. thought Tosin had one of his more mediocre games today. Some of his passing wasnt what we d come to expect today ..meanwhile Lenihans was ..over hit and wayward !

Exactly ..regardless of Waltons starting position ..no one was saving that. As Tyrone pointed out ..it was right in the angle and was even swerving away from Walton. Another day ..it would have been in the crowd but fair play to the lad he took a chance ..and he scored .

Well at least that puts to bed the myth that we only ever turn up in the second half

I was being mischievous Matty ... And Bolton in Horwich ..and Accy Stanley in Altham West ??

Better scrap all Man Utd s honours then seeing as they play in the city of Salford and not Manchester! And Arsenal dicing with death eleven miles from Woolwich..

Not only Charlton but Brum .. Speaking on his YouTube channel [as cited by the Birmingham Mail] about the Blues’ link with the midfielder, Peterborough chairman Darragh MacAnthony said: “Birmingham came back with a second offer (on January 18) and we felt at that stage that he’d definitely go as Marcus told me himself he’s definitely go to Birmingham. “But then it came down to money and he didn’t want to go there. “His agents dragged it out, he dragged it out and it wasn’t happening. MacAnthony later revealed: “The Birmingham thing dragged on and eventually they pulled out because obviously they got tired of the nonsense and I don’t blame them for that.” Anyway enough of Maddison you don't know ..I don't know ..don't take this personal but when you get on a subject Roversfan99 ..it tends to go on n on n on for days ...and im sure everyone else has had enough Marcus so ill shut up now !.?

Not disagreeing in general .But ..when the same rumours circulate around a footballer then you do start to think those behind the scenes know more than we possibly do. Apparantly he f*cked Brum about for more money after telling the Peterboro chairman that he wanted to join them.Then low and behold he ends up at Hull who just happen to have £22M burning a hole in their pocket and probably secured him on on quite large wages which most of the Championship couldn't afford. Also begs the question why no one else previous to this has taken a punt on him ..being a player that's been touted as a very decent footballer for quite a few seasons now.

One thing I have noticed though is that this bad attitude tag is something not only mentioned on here. Birmingham fans after he messed them about over a move said they d dodged a bullet and Sunderland fans when both linked with him raised the bad attiude tag. Even Peterboro fans quote the same thing and a quick google of Peterboro leads to the Peterborough Telegragh even running a headline .. Peterborough United star Marcus Maddison: ‘A genius and a great entertainer, or an out-of-form player with a bad attitude’ Peterborough United star Marcus Maddison is a ‘genius’ to some Posh fans, to others he’s an out-of-form player with a bad attitude. Makes you think theres something not just 100 percent about Maddison Probably not been helped by this either .. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/30136476

And more importantly ..does he get booked at Brentford and miss two home games on the assumption he ll hopefully not be missed as much against Stoke and Swansea ? He s going to get booked at some point ..

The facts are that apart from WBA (at the moment) any side in that league can beat each other. We were giving TM a right panning when we lost was it four on the bounce? But look at how many other teams have done the same if not worse. Even WBA til recently had only won one in eight. Absolutely wide open are the Play Off spots. All the teams above bar WBA are making a real hash of securing a top Six place and I think this uncertainty in who will actually get in the Play Offs (maybe even automatic second place ) will continue right til the final games. Anyone doing the Sky Sports Soccer Six game when the games are Championship matches must realise just how un bloody predictable this League is!

So basically we re at a flatline with Rovers fans . Wont go up much wont go down..without ridiculously cheap prices via season tickets or one off ticket games which the club cant sustain. Rock n a hard place. ill say what ive always said ..you need to to get the kids.

Well the club has tried and have reduced prices in some way. How it works out who knows . Imagine taking four non committal footballing mates onto Ewood v Oxford then inviting them back with 12000 on ..they d be after doing you under the trade description act ! They d run a mile next invite! Its a fine line I know this.

Its not a problem ..but its as you say a one off game ..again that's if we ve not gone and lost three on the bounce and people don't have better things to do or are away at Easter ...or God forbid Sky make it an evening KO because WBA are flying . Personally ..my own view ..is that reducing six games to 16 quid (and fucking hopefully wining a few !) gets those that buy in to at least get the bug and consider (as you rightly say ) a reasonably priced season ticket next season. BTW Matty im seriously not falling out with you over this ..I do see the benefits of a ten quid game but I just think its a short term solution

Yes a one off game Matty but isn't the idea to get fans back on a regular basis ? Why don't we give Leeds the whole Darwen end and Riverside for a fiver if you want to see the ground fuller Matty ? More chance of them doing it than Rovers fans ! The one off Oxford game (a celebration) didn't get thousands back on board the following season. Got to get people back on a regular basis not some one off game. Get the bug ..not a one off piss up and forgotten in a haze.

But history also proves that a one off game at £10 makes no impact on future attendances.

And if our season is over by Easter Monday ? and its Easter ..a lot of the floating fans (and season ticket holders come to think of it !) tend to do "things" at Easter. This aint no "Oxford " game .. Besides .I thought the idea was to try and entice people back on a regular basis..ie try and get them back in the groove ..rather than just a one off game .

£99 quid for an Adults in the Blackburn End ..£16-50 a ticket ….cant argue with that ...surely …?? £55 18-25 yrs ! £30 12-17 yrs and £22 0-11 yrs !... beats a one off game for a tenner in my eyes

Well that's another way of putting it !?

I thought you d like that ! (I think )

We sort of grasped one today to be fair ..
