And half of that is because they only chose to give Derby 2700.... Now i'm the first to say we shouldn't keep giving 7k tickets in crunch games because in this era it's working against us but they were never selling that many. Seems very petty not to give them the top tier and another couple of thousand downstairs.

Sounds like old Walter might have been in line for a finders fee.

This is Rovers and one thing we excel at is boo boys, unless we need them to oust grifters and owners of course !

To be honest from what i remember about it there was less of a fuss around that one than this but the focus back then was all about the football side of things. Also no social media and probably no cheap ticket deal otherwise back then there'd have been thousands more on.

We were probably up for sale at the worst possible time and even V's were only brought to the table when the price dropped about 20 million.

He proved himself a decent enough cover keeper before so lets hope it's the same again. Biggest worry apart from the obvious is his lack of pre season and game time but lets be honest this couldn't have come at a worse time with this game on Sat and high flying nob end looming on the horizon.

Yeah and we ended up relegated during that period then the owners had to do several costly full audits of everything. Oh and they wasted money employing then sacking Owen Cole and some no mark grifter called Senior. If ever there was an advert for a real CEO that was it and we didn't even get one of those so no wonder the club wet nowhere whilst wasting millions upon millions. Why do they think everyone is stupid ?

Only at this club would they still employ someone who messed up his entire pre season due to an alleged vanity project. He should've been sacked.

Just a stark reminder that similar was fluffed around about a Mr Sayed who then actually got his foot through the door at Ewood. Dan Williams existed but was a bit of a faker like Sayed although obviously not wanted by Interplod.

Who would have thought not strengthening the goalkeeping dept would come back to haunt us so early ?

Absolutely Made me laugh years ago when some seemed to think he did 11 o'clockers on here just because he liked Rovers 🤣

Hes had a good run but the mask is off now.

Big game, bigger than usual crowd, returning manager and players ( or judas and his greedy snakes, depending on which narrative you believe) and of course Blackburn Rovers being Blackburn Rovers. Just when things are finally going well...... Rovers 0 Rovers B 1

It's about time coalition of many clubs fans got together and sued him for the pure lies and spin hes made a career out of inventing.

I can absolutely tell you with experience that MAF is a crank and a clueless one. If that is someone posting stuff from the genuine thinking inside that club it's stitched up beyond belief. Absolutely the status quo of the few in there is being protected for their own means.

Someone let AI loose again.

Yep keeper and right back will be paying for next years running costs.

As he did at Hull in that invaluable win. The difference between a good keeper and an average one is massive to us.

Great effort and fully deserved win well done to the squad, staff and fans. I wouldn't say we can beat anybody on our day but if someone has a bad one and we turn up we'll find them out whoever they are. Classic Championship stuff.

Precisely why you should always get the best keeper you can afford.

Su-stede are the new Shagnew i called it last season and they will do all they can to manipulate the narrative in order to protect their own little regime.

Until these clowns showed up this would be a 25k+ gate guaranteed but it seems the entire arse end has finally dropped out of even the remaining hardcore this season. It was always going to happen sooner or later and now we are a doom loop of ruin the team, lose more fans, cut costs and raise prices because of lost fans, rinse and repeat. Idiots then blame the fans. Whilst shadow agent, Gestede, Waggot before him and god knows who else still collect their bumper salaries regardless. If Rachel Reeves worked for Venkys she couldn't have done a better job than their inmate installed here.

I was thinking about those at the front unless Leicester sell tickets from front to back, which is a bit odd. People selecting their own seats normally pick back/middle first in which case it's very grim.

Looks about 200 on the ticket site but you never know if some of those shaded out are all sold or not on sale. Hopefully it'll pick up later in the week. 5/600 is respectable enough for us but 3/400 ish is pathetic.

Yes it does it's precisely the time the team needs support like many other sets of fans do. We are talking about the hardcore here and if they've give up we've nowt left.
