He's definitely a project signing they are putting minutes into for the sake of it. My guess is he's one of the newbies who has a low or no appearance bonus.

Set piece coach was a great investment but lets be honest Ismael is swapping the defence around every week it's impossible to form a unit. Of course his answer will be throw De Neve on. The best presence in the defence was Pratt but of course he's dropped him.

They are the very worst types they are too miserable to do anything but turn up and sit there in silence. It's like they thrive off the misery and apathy but can't tear themselves away yet anybody who dares to dream otherwise is 'entitled'.

They'll care when they have to answer questions on it and the threat of being booted off their money earner looms. You are off your rocker if you think they aren't getting into a flap about it, given their fragile egos.

Exactly. FFS did people actually expect nobody to be there at all ? Even Sheff Weds had about 7k there for theirs.

It's lower than usual and don't forget thousands were already staying away, there's less in there than Millwall for sure. Mates lad stewards there but wasn't needed today and he said they were expecting an early cup game type crowd of about 6k. Seems about right so people crying it hasn't worked are getting upset over nothing, there'd normally be 11/12k home fans for this.

If you and some others can't see that it causes aggro for the gravy train riders at Ewood and will NOT go unnoticed by their bosses then you really are head in the sand i'm afraid. Of course it won't bother the owners financially but the people in charge of the club will have to answer to them and it's a bug two fingers up to them from a large chunk of the remaining hardcore fanbase. 'We see you and we hold you in the same contempt you hold us'. That's what it's about. Shouldn't really need explaining though should it.

But you can tell with him how he is just from various interviews he's way out of his depth although the exact same can be said for the fella above him. The football industry and a lot within it isn't noted for high IQ levels anyway that's why grifters, chancers and dodgy people so easily get a foot through the door. Here though under this lot has always been a naive basket case that's never gone away because it comes from the very top.

1 - 1 11,270 announced attendance 6,890 actually in there including Watfords lot.

What was on the latest one ? Agree making numbers like that public is daft it'll only be used to deflect blame back onto others.

The money wasted on Henriksson, TGH and Kargbo would probably have seen a decent contract provided to keep Travis. But the whole operation now is get two or three in for one decent wage out.

Nobody was better at creating value than that regime. Some of the signings for low money were astounding and Santa Cruz, Bentley and Samba must've yielded 45 million in sale money for about 5 million in outlay.

Yes they were seriously triggered by being given a roasting on and off the pitch at their place. Plus to thousands of them it's a one off i know loads of them from Chorley and the outlands who never miss these games but rarely ever go otherwise, similar to our lot with Burnley.

If Preston continue their Rovers style death spiral out of the top 6 it would be nice if a lot of them shelved their cup final for once and flicked two fingers up to the Ewood thieves.

Ah, nothing wrong with content but to me the way it's set out screams AI but i might be wrong.

I thought that was only really a Premier League thing i'm sure there are various clubs who have different pricing points for home and away fans in opposite ends. How do they justify £38 in an upper tier when the opposite end is empty ?

Have you read the same version as me ?

And next time we play North end they'll start doing similar.

But in the owners eyes that probably qualifies him for a CEO (Waggots) wages.

I've only read the non paywall version so maybe the original is better. Yes it makes some good points but seems very jumbled up with a few contradictions. Just reeks of being left to AI.

How many actual ST holders are there to be counted in, barely 9k ? So they still need to shift over 2k match tickets to make the usual 11k+. A record number of complimentary's issued for tomorrow no doubt.

He might want to start doing a bit of proof reading then.

Great that it's in the media finally but obviously another shocking piece of AI created content.

Nixon the Rovers salesman will be advertising him soon to alert the high profile clubs.

Are they free or half price again as per Ipswich ?
