  1. I registered with a new account with the same email address as instructed by Rovers, and although I've been able to watch all videos on Rovers TV (interviews and such), I am only getting an "Upgrade your streaming subscriptions" link in the Match Centre rather than Watch Live and Listen Live.

    Anybody else experiencing the same thing?

  2. They are still only a point and goal difference from safety. I think there will be three teams even worse than them to see them safe. Namely Sheffield United, Luton Town, and Bournemouth.

    It's not just masochism from me, but also a jinx because I'm usually wrong. 😄

    Good scoreline from a Rovers point of view but it amounted to little more than a training game and Harrogate were pitiful and their manager insulted the competition and embarrassed the club's fans by fielding such a weak team. It's about time clubs were sanctioned for doing it

    You're asking for the ones who financially engineer the important competitions to then regulate it. Don't waste your time.

    If a manager wants to throw away a cup run, let them. The manager will have enough grief in his hands without external interference.

    Furthermore, you could very easily argue that we have played weakened sides in this competition under Tomasson. Do we get punished under your ideals, too?

    If I was a Burnley fan I would be distinctly unimpressed with Kompany after the match. Hugging Guardiola (who didn't reciprocate) and having a huge laugh on the pitch with the City boys. 

    It sends a bad message psychologically to Burnley players and fans and you wouldn't see the likes of Kenny or Fergie doing that. Or Bill Shankly for that matter.

    My local sports station doesn't keep the broadcast going long enough for me to see things like that.

    I found it ironic to hear the Dingles chanting "Premier League - corrupt as f*ck", when they no doubt enjoyed the silly parachute payment money last season at the expense of the rest of us.

    To come full circle on that, I wonder how Kompany will get on as manager of one of the favourites for relegation, as opposed to last season when he bought the league and was able to play pretty football at a canter while the rest of us suffer stupid FFP restraints, no handouts, and potential points deductions. They are not going to be finding that easy this time around, particularly against teams like City.

    We're used to knowing the Dingles as a gritty Dyche team. Those days are long-gone. It seems foreign owners only want "pretty" football. I'm not sure you can do that when you're supposed to be cannon fodder.
