Does that include Ticketmaster's £50 booking fee?

For the first time EVER I did not watch or listen to any of our last 5 games as I had already lost the will to live. I am pleased beyond believe that the nightmare is over for a little while at least. Was this the most boring end to a season ever? Yes or No? If No, which year's end of season was more mind numbingly boring and why?

Where is the laugh reaction? 😆

A big No from me. I would not even consider buying a single ticket for a game even if we drew Burnley or Man Utd in a cup game. There is too much rot that we need to get rid of and I do not want to be paying into the coffers to help support that. I consider that my duty as a fan. STOP THE ROT!

Unfortunately, as Kean did back then Mowbray will still have a lot of support in the ground. Especially after their memories have been reset during the summer.

Where do they get the stats for that? What I found mildly amusing was the last time I watched iFollow there was some regular screenshot that would come up with something along the lines of "Support Your Team Do Not Illegal Stream". I could hardly really imagine anyone even bothering to stream from iFollow in the first place bearing in mind the state of the season and the awful football, never mind thousands (or even hundreds) of fans clambering to watch said football and, as they made out, "stealing" revenue from the club.

Maybe he should run at the next UK election? (It will also probably the only way we will get rid of him).

I did not even know we were playing. The first I learned of it was upon checking my emails earlier today and seeing the offer to see the game on iFollow (No thanks by the way). It would appear that I had a lucky escape. Commiserations to those that spent almost 2 hours of their life on it, and especially to those that actually shelled out a further £10.

Do I get a lolly for getting the result correct? A bit of a lucky win by all accounts, but those teams below us are all gash. 2 goalies in a succession have gifted us points. All Praise the God of Butterfingers. Unfortunately as I said in the relegation thread, this is the start of a super end to the season which Mowbray and those Rovers fans with memories like goldfish will use to try and justify the journey is going places and we will have to suffer the utterly shite one for yet another season.

What team have we got out? I did not even bother to look. I would like to see Rotherham stay up at the expense of Derby so I want us to beat them, though I will not be crying too much. Derby are a poor team, Mowbray should be executed if we do not win never mind sacked. 2-1 to us.

Guess who's back, guess who's back Guess who's back, guess who's back Guess who's back, guess who's back

Actually I just looked at the most extended highlights I could find of that game and a 4 goal thrashing would have been more apt. But this is one of the games that has been well reported as a great battling performance and deserved point. But I do not think there are many or even any games out there where a 4 goal defeat (as would have been deserved) could be described as such. I demand a dR (deserved Results) table. I know Mowbray and his supporters have continually banged on about all these close defeats where we supposedly should have got more. But I can not help thinking back to those results where we actually got something and did not deserve anything had chances and officials done a better job. Case in point. Boro away where we won 1-0 and took the 3 points. That kick in the head at 0-0 that went unnoticed for some reason should have been a Boro penalty and more than likely a deserved sending off. So we would have been 1-0 down and deservedly a man down in that game. With a deserved defeat being the likely outcome. I suspect in a dR table we would be facing very real relegation battle. How about the win in the first game against Millwall where our defence were trying to play basketball in the last few minutes. We were very lucky not to concede a penalty and hence throw away 2 points. Even taking our last game into account. I think Kaminsky deserved to be sent off. Imagine being a man down against Cardiff with Pears in goal, would we have got a draw? (How many would have been looking forward to Pears being in goal in an upcoming relegation fight match?). I guess you could argue we could have picked up a few points extra in games where we were more unlucky (Was Armstrong's disallowed goal against Stoke ever shown to be onside? That was one of the only games where I really came away at the end thinking we perhaps should have won). Either way overall I think we would undoubtedly be on less points than we are now given dR. And where I think we are safe already on 47 points. If we were deservedly on a few less points than that, we would still have work to do in some nervous relegation battles. To summarise, dR is probably less BS than any kind of xG analysis and we would be in a dESERVED relegation dogfight. Whereas our luck has allowed us to escape any relegation threat and plod along until the end of the season with most fans being in a Mowbray inspired coma.

Is there an expected goals against? I was just thinking back to the recent Norwich game where a lot of people seem to think that it was an amazing performance against the top team. But my memory is that we should have easily lost by at least 2 clear goals based on clear cut chances. Expected Norwich 4-2 Expected Rovers would have been a fairer reflection and so Zero Expected points.

I think it shows just how boring things have got that we are almost trying to make up some unlikely scenarios where we might still have something to play for at some point. Can anyone remember a more boring recent season? It has been dead for a number of weeks already and there is literally nothing to look forward to and the football has mainly been atrocious.

Response @ Venkys ? That has got to be the biggest oxymoron in the universe.
