Agreed, which is why they should have recognised there is a casual fanbase and offered a fair ALTERNATIVE such as a 6 or 10 game flexi ST. Regardless of which team you follow and what prices they are charging, 10 free games is a fair old carrot to dangle for getting a ST.

Season Tickets 2019/2020
OldEwoodBlue replied to blueboy3333's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Agreed. But Steve just played his trump card with the matchday prices. Let's see if it has his desired effect or the opposite. -
This is a smart move by Mr Waggott. Open up the gap between matchday prices and ST prices so that buying a ST becomes more of a no brainer. Over £200 difference now. I calculate £540 for a walk on in the Riverside. An extra £69 for anyone daft enough to pay the walk on tax. Slight concession on the walk on tax for night games, changing the cut off to 6pm instead of 12pm. At least it's a move to fairness. Especially as they have stated no 12pm KOs this season. Anyone planning on attending regularly will now have to seriously look at getting a ST. Pity there isn't something for those who know they can only get to a few games by way of a mini (multi game) ST. The idea should still be to fill the stadium, not rip folks off or put folks off.

Summer Transfer Window 2019
OldEwoodBlue replied to Neal's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Remaining in the pram until the end of July. In Tony we trust. Excited about the 5 new first team players who are better than our third division players. Bouncing through the Championship via the playoffs. Nice trip to Wembley. Going to be a fantastic season. -

Summer Transfer Window 2019
OldEwoodBlue replied to Neal's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
so you are saying he is deliberately telling lies via the LT to sell season tickets. Doesn't seem a sound plan from a man who has so much integrity. Unlikely imo. If he says top 8 then I suggest he believes that. In turn so do a good number of fans. Lets hope he has the tools to achieve it. I am NOT expecting promotion this season. I AM expecting the play offs as a minimum. -

Summer Transfer Window 2019
OldEwoodBlue replied to Neal's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Mowbray said we are playing 2 up front this season (so Ben can run the channels and dribble). So that means Ben plus another up top. 20 goals each and a hatful from an exciting Rothwell / Dack midfield. On our way back ! Of course that was more Mowbray nonsense and simply won't happen. -
"My hope would be that by Christmas if we’re in mid-table and not top of the league then you’re not clamouring for a new manager because I’m trying to be realistic" OK this is getting ridiculous now. It has to be a joke right ? You might as well Fuck Off now Tony and let us get a proper manager with ambition. The minimum expectation this season is the play offs !!!!!

so only fans who have STs are committed fans.... ? although they are so committed they can't be arsed to go yet deserve something back ? What are you talking about man ?! Our most committed fans are those who go to all the away games paying lots of money in the process yet refusing to go to Ewood whilst the Chicken Farmers reside in office.

Presume another shopper brushed past him and knocked him over.

Mogga's India Trip 2019
OldEwoodBlue replied to Bigdoggsteel's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
There has to be real pressure on him this season Matty. He had his free pass last season. At the end of the day we were 3 points outside the play offs and then went into freefall. Firmly at Tony's doorstep that. Flash the free pass. Minimum expectation this season is the play offs. No excuses. -
Mogga's India Trip 2019
OldEwoodBlue replied to Bigdoggsteel's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Fair play to Waggott for good (on the face of it honest) communication and thorough explanation of the process in India. If it's true, it has to be positive that the owners were asking about THE BLIP. I will still wait to see the evidence in the transfer market but my ST money is in my pocket ready to purchase. Over to you Tony. Inspire us please. -

And he is weak as piss and falls over at the brush of a shoulder. Lazarus needs 6 goals in the first 2 months or he simply ain't a Championship quality striker. -

He can't start with that side. He is playing a highly technical side this season with 2 up front so Ben can run the channels and dribble. Personally speaking, that side won't be far off the mark. Chapman - Lyca new signing Samuel - Lyca new signing Ben B - been brilliant in training - Lyca new signing Ben G - getting there - come Jan will be... Lyca new signing -

It can be described as a premature overreaction OK I will get back into my pram as well…. until the end of July I am keeping my ST money safely under the pram mattress until then. Fair enough ? As you were Tony.... we trust your plan and judgement. -

OldEwoodBlue replied to Neal's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
new GK - Leutwiler new defender - he will buy one to replace Downing. new midfielder - we have plenty on long term contracts so not expecting anything. new winger - Chapman and Conway (mix of youth and experience we need to get out of this "men's league"). new striker - Samuel (this window's "like a new signing") & Gladwin (already being saved as January's "like a new signing"). WHAT A TOTAL BAG OF SHIT TONY ! -
Rovers vs. Swansea - Sunday 5th May, 12:30pm
OldEwoodBlue replied to J*B's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Hasn't Mowbray said that Conway plays a big part off the field helping the youngsters and keeping them grounded ? Good pro regardless of level of ability and if we really are stabilised and on the up, then I dare say Mowbray will cite Conway as a someone who has helped the process. It's greater than 90 minutes on the pitch every week. Having said that when he came on against Norwich it was evident by his play that he is a level above a lot of the others (like Bell) . Just a bit old now. That comes to all of us I am afraid. 3-0 win today COYB -

I hope they certainly repeat the stunt with the kids again maybe 4 times in the coming season. They could aim to reopen the top tier of the BBE by Xmas with a proper plan. No point unless it's filled with additional fans (not sucked from other parts of the ground). Great Video. -

Last year, seeing that "Total Commitment" nonsense was a real wind up with the opposite effect. This year I am reading "OUR PRIDE. OUR PASSION. OUR ROVERS!" EXACTLY - This is MY ROVERS. This is YOUR ROVERS. This is OUR ROVERS ! Duncan has already said exactly how I am also feeling on the previous page. Vote Miller ! ? The other night Waggott seemed to be answering straight forward questions with straight forward answers. There seems to be people at the club actually listening to us.... and yes, even reading this forum. So I reckon I am going back as well AND buy a ST. Just need to decide where to locate myself. I do expect us to be pushing for Play Offs as a minimum. Can we all please just go back now, fill our stadium which Jack built for us and help the lads get back to the PL. Enough is Enough. OUR ROVERS FOREVER ! -

Championship 2018-19

I imagine that excuse won't wash and they will be told to play behind closed doors or even at the training ground. Supporters are not necessary for the game to be played. Just ask Steve Waggott -

When is the annual safety report due ? Perhaps they can only sell season tickets after confirmation that The Riverside has been given the OK for another year. -
