Rich Sharpe @richsharpe89 Team news: Understand it's three at the back for #Rovers, but what happens ahead of that could well be pretty fluid. First league start for John Buckley.

Things you dislike about football.

Players covering their mouths with their hands whilst talking... even sat on the bench. Imagine Shearer covering his mouth whilst telling Ruddock "I'm gonna score 3 you fat useless ****" Whilst Razor covers his mouth to retort "Not if I get you first you cocky geordie ****" More modern game nonsense also caused by Sky. -

Well I can say you missed some cracking matches last season Chris. The City Spurs game was probably the best match of the season. I dont have BT sport either (or Sky sports) but most pubs do. Perhaps watching the top level players forces us to consider how poor our own team really is and then go over the reasons why and how we got here. This journey could be too painful for some whilst others have already made it to the other side. -
At the World Cup, Stirling was absolute dog shit. His ineffectiveness was a big reason for us not winning it imo. Since the World Cup he has been fantastic week in week out for City but also repeating his form for England.

other Blackburn Rovers Documentary / Help Needed!
OldEwoodBlue replied to a topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
substitute the headings.... blue = season ticket holders 8600 red = boycotters 8000 yellow = occasional walk ons fair game for the Waggott Tax Why is our fan base split like this ? Venkys. Modern day Rovers is defined by them so you shouldn't really be surprised about the reaction when you poke at the old wounds and find a load of infected puss oozes out. -

players kicking the ball out when a player is "injured"... 100 times more than that.... throwing the ball back to the opposition afterwards. Makes my blood boil. And the Waggott Tax ! -

Mowbray settles the 10 game or until xmas discussion. 12 games it is. 12 points from the next 6 games or walk. personally think it should be 14 - 16 because 7th to 10th place is not acceptable. Top 6.

Summer Transfer Window 2019
OldEwoodBlue replied to Neal's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I am not claiming to be ITK or anything but Tom (allegedly) saw him limping around the Trafford Centre after being fouled by a wing mirror in the car park. Weak as Piss. Rubbish. -

Keith Hill was linked with us each time the Venkys spun the bottle. Good luck to him and them I say. No way I am taking the pish when it will be us at some point, guaranteed. I see they avoided Conway though. -
so if for the sake of discussion, we all agree with your wisdom, what do you feel is a fair number of games or time to wait before judging Tony's performance against the top 6 target ?

Championship season 2019-20
OldEwoodBlue replied to arbitro's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
unfortunately the number 1 candidate is busy https://www.oficrete.gr/ofi-crete-news/ofi-crete-appoints-steve-kean-as-a-recruiting-director However I wouldn't be surprised to see a return of Big Sam at some point this season -
Never mind this Ben Garratt lad. Lets see Ben Benson have a go in't nets. See what he's teaching um.

Anyone know how Waggott is getting on attracting another 1400 adult season ticket sales ? After this ridiculous and pointless idea has failed.... what will be their next innovative idea for increasing attendances ? Where in their alphabetical list is "listening to the ideas of fans" ? Entry to the Competition is free BUT is dependent upon the entrant having bought an Adult Season Ticket. The Competition will be open to those who have already purchased their Adult Season Ticket and to those who purchase their Adult Season Ticket prior to the 16th September 2019. Closing date for the competition will be 17:00 on 16th September 2019. After this date no further entries will be allowed. Only one entry is permitted for each purchase of an Adult Season Ticket. The winner will be chosen by a live, random draw from all entries received by the closing date, and verified by the Club and or its agent, during the game against Luton Town FC on 28th September 2019. The live, random draw occurring is dependent upon the Club achieving the target of selling 10,000 Adult Season Tickets for the 2019-20 EFL Championship campaign.

End of month 1 progress report Mowbray (Bowyer mk2) now has only 4 MUST WIN games to save his job, before the "judge after 10 game" barometer gets reset to the "judge at Xmas" baramoter. Fortunately we already have Samuel and Chapman (LycaNewSigning) lined up for the January Window. Top 6.... How is the season ticket drive going ? When is the draw for the 10 grand ?
-
We are playing a new system with "nobody down the middle". Slight flaw... the goals are down the middle. Thats possibly why we are struggling to score and after about 6 games had about...6 shots on target. Maybe Tony dreamt this new system and was unsure if it was a dream or genius premonition.

Sheffield united away- League cup
OldEwoodBlue replied to Bigdoggsteel's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Pointless game. Only thing important is winning the next league game and then the one after that consistently until we are at Wembley in the play offs. -
Point proven. Replace "people" with "I" So any thoughts on attendances ?
-
True but so many dont attend for a variety of reasons. I hardly know anyone who still goes (including myself) and each has their own personal reasons or straw which broke their back. Oxford game showed they are still here and still love "Our Rovers" but the club failed to follow it up and get them back. It is nothing to do with the BAME community as far as I can see. Plenty of Rovers fans to fill Ewood but they are just ignoring or ripping off the fans which they already have.
-
I doubt the volume of the music contributes to the attendance figure. The very fact there is a discussion about it partly explains why ewood is a desolate sterile environment. Next we will have fans complaining to the stewards that the away supporters are too noisy or they swore and upset the children.

Nobody should have to pay this 3 quid Waggott Tax. I'm glad you didn't. No wonder there are 20,000 empty seats. The club can't grasp 20,000 opportunities instead choosing to rip off a few hundred.
