This guarantees the under 16s turning out in the FA Cup.

I have too much self pity to give a toss about them.

I hope it's off. I just can't be arsed. it's utterly dispiriting. I know the conditions were difficult for the players but the standard of football was pitiful. And Ipswich were terrible too. But if we can't beat Wednesday twice we ought to be relegated. I despair.

I think I probably am one. It's a fair description.

Well said.

The club does nothing well and hasn't done for 15 years. Supporters treated with contempt. I would complain in writing but I complained about the Telegraph ban and haven't had the courtesy of a reply. Shysters, charlatans, chancers with few if any exceptions; they don't belong here. A captive audience, we slavishly still turn up. An abusive relationship.

Miller. Great athlete. Wholehearted. Not a footballer.

Or being preserved as another fire sale asset?

After the game I queued up for half an hour for some overpriced piss poor lager they ran out of before I got there. one poor lass on her own. pathetic. shambles of a club. I only stayed to remind myself of the good times. amazed at how many stayed. but for the same reason I guess. It's like invasion of the body snatchers. Jack Walker's legacy highjacked by these chancers. Sick making. I didn't boo Ben, Baath, Wiemann or Eustace. Why would you? They are the symptoms, the canary in the mine. And they handled it quite classily I thought. I've probably said it before, but yes, Billy Bancroft, David Brown, Bill Fox; they weren't billionaires but they were Blackburn men like Jack. The club was at least honest if not flush. I preferred those days to this lot. I'm glad I'm 60 and been lucky to see what I have. I'll keep going to watch. On autopilot.

Better get Toth and Cantwell on January 2026 part of calendar before they go...

Well they're advertising flexible season tickets which must surely mean you get an ST in the summer, but if you decide not to go to a particular game you get your money back each time. That's only fair under present circumstances I'd say. A great marketing ploy right there. What are they waiting for?

Your attention to the forum betrays you sir as it does us all! More's the pity.

I'd make an exception for Scott Wharton, but you're right and he's suffering the same malaise as the rest.

Deckchairs. Titanic.
