Even though we knew the game wasn't going to be restarted, we hung around on Saturday just out of curiosity. Never been to an abandoned game before I don't think, so it's one for the memory bank. The good news is we hopefully get another home game to go to. It'll certainly be a strange one.

Unless, having changed the 75 minute rule, they want to set a new precedent going forward.

Have they not already set a precedent by allowing both sides to put their case forward ? It's obvious what both sides will want, but the facts haven't changed since Saturday. The decision should be made without any club intervention.

Agreed, they've already set (or continued) the precedent of asking both sides to put their case forward. The facts are all known, they should just make the inevitable decision.

51 pages has to be the record for a match thread.

So THEY'RE the words🤣

The problem seems to be getting the water into the river when the river level is too high. It would seem obvious to install a sump with a pump(s) close to the river and pump it over the top when needed.

Indeed, just a shame we didn't get our just desserts. Would have been interesting to see if Gudjonson and Kargbo could capitalise on the situation. Thought the word team summed up the performance yesterday, and at Watford to be fair.

Someone has explained it above, didn't realise that to be honest. Decision tomorrow apparently.

Aah, fair enough. Who decides where they stay? 😁

Why would Rovers be paying for Ipswich ?

We sit low down in the JW so it might have looked different from up top, but apart from a couple of slips, the pitch played fine into the second half. I thought the ref was right to start the game, and right to stop it when he did.

Don't remember him just hoofing it at all, more short balls through.

Did like the way Miller carried the ball out of defence and always looked for a forward pass. Played a few lovely passes into midfield to turn Ipswich round and get us on the front foot.

Anyone else watching Fulham v Coventry ?

The one I always remember was the 3rd round (just checked ) full members cup tie against Oxford. Could hardly see the edge of the Blackburn end penalty box for fog, from the Blackburn end, remember thinking any other competion it would be abandoned. All worked out for the best though.

I'm sure the Hibs fan who got in contact said Miller played his better football at centre half and Alebiosu was the better right back.

Aye, it's the football fan's get out of jail free card, if you're wrong put it down to luck.

Wish him all the best, always tried his hardest, his temperament was never in doubt. I never understood the vitriol towards him. I wonder if those who used to say , if he wants to go I'll drive him there myself, realised it would be to the Bernabeu rather than Barnsley.

Despite signing 10,only 3 new players started on Saturday. Obviously injuries and suspensions will be a factor, but it will be interesting going forward to see how that changes. It will maybe be a good indication of just how successful the window was. I'm more intrigued than anything, beyond Dolan and Britain, can't say I'm too fussed about the ones who've left.

Dolan fouled for the winning penalty.

Aka, "The Rubber Dinghy Men".

There's very much a pattern, whether the club has done "wrong" remains to be seen.

Aaah😂

How much were they on? I'd need to know that before I decided whether or not they had earned a rise.
