BEEEEEEEEEAAAMMMMMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

And if we went up, we'd get absolutely tramelled every week. Not that we're going up, and we won't be doing so at least until the chicken ticklers are gone.

Tony and John sadly not very well but still with us. We've lost Ken, Mick, Johnny and Don unfortunately. Good find that,ta

Great kit, hope it brings us luck today. I was born in April seventy two, so they were wearing something very very similar at that time. I wonder how many players from April seventy two are still with us?

Couldn't agree more with this. Since venkys took over, getting a gig at rovers means doing just enough to get your money, but don't be too successful because that will raise expectations and you might not be able to meet them they're all at it and venkys couldn't give a shit.

I was thinking more that if you're lacking bottle, then tim is yer man to bring in https://twitter.com/FootballCliches/status/860607416878190592

Bring back Tim flowers

(rofl) Bloody cack-handed Rovers. Feel dead nervous, I get the feeling he won't pick Wharton or Leonard, and it will be Gallagher and Morton instead, and we'll lose. Will love to be proven wrong, I'm just readying myself for what feels like impending disappointment.

Need to get close enough to it to make contact first.

Actually, that is very true Perhaps because the cat is in India and the mice don't care enough

Where's yer famous, where's yer famous, where's yer famous MDF?

Furphy, Lee, Smith Holy crap, brilliant appointments. Certainly poses all over berg,bowyer, Appleton

Well guys, we're stuck with them, at least for now, whether we like it or not. Dichotomy of control, where there's no control, there's no responsibility. And certainly nothing I do is going to affect whether or not they sell up. I look at football these days and there's so much I don't like. The mad kick-off times, the sport-washing, the amount of money floating around, the agents, clubs selling of their grounds for housing and building out of town anodyne bowls, bookies advertising on shirts, fans spackled off their tits on Charley Chang, spoiling for a fight. And yeah, foreign ownership. I long for the good old days. But they're not coming back, are they? It's been buggered by greed. It's why I like the retro shirts because it lets me just live in the past and I can forget what a hellscape it's become. So, let it go lads, get yourselves down b&q on a Saturday afternoon. Exercise the only agency you have in this matter and vote with your feet.

One possible explanation is that they expected the fans to kiss their arse from day one, and they certainly didn't get that. So maybe it's a vindictive thing. I mean, you've got yer man fat booby Barry, he had some lad spanked with an iron bar on some cellar, for speaking out of turn. Or maybe he did the job himself. Can't quite remember. But in any case, these lads don't do dissent tolerance. They also don't do business sense. Or just sense. But I don't want to be seen to be harping on.

Remember when they thought spending v five million a year would get them in the champions League? What is it they have burned through? Something like £330mn? Ab third of a billion, something like £27mn a year. It's like Donald Campbell jumping into bluebird and not noticing it's in reverse gear. The way they operate, the business model at Ewood, I can't see it ever succeeding

Oh, no argument from me there. Tomasson is a massive improvement on the lip licking turd nibbler. But they could hardly appoint someone worse, and they have had ten years since he's left for then to get the hang of appointing a manager. Just because Steve Kean is no longer here, doesn't mean venkys are suddenly amazing owners. I won't do a tedious laundry list, but there's still plenty wrong, and we're a long way from being put back where they found us. I guess never say never. Except I will say never. I'll never accept them, and I'll never forgive them. They're a blight on this club.

Bit of a low bar to get over isn't it? "They're not as bad as when they appointed Steve Kean".

Now there you go, you see. Cairney and Evans, of course, yes. But Todd Kane? I suspect that's someone from the last ten years, but not sure? Sounds like a surfer dude, or a character in neighbours.

I always like reading that"who's played for both clubs" segment on the front page. There's always a load that I forget, some I had no idea on and others is not heard of. Frank Stapleton played for Huddersfield. Who knew? So, Hull. There's Bob dewhurst, David mail. That's all I can think of 🤣

Clearly no-one is going to be able to buy it from them . As a going concern we're absolutely busted. It's mind boggling just how crap these people are

Nah, my idea of a moisturiser is a couple of pints of Guinness. I'm not doing too badly for fifty one. The dinosaur noises when I get out of bed in the morning aren't the best though

It's rovers that's done it to me.🤣 https://youtu.be/VA7J0KkanzM

Nah mate. I'm fifty one. Not to worry.

Seventieth?! WHAT?! WHAT?! I'm a tad younger than that. 😆

Happy birthday bazza, glad you enjoyed it
