  1. Haven't posted for some time. The last two games have been an shocking. I can and have put up with a number of defeats over the years, but I have to say this team has no commitment or ability to play this tip tap football, that JDT favours. Sadly I believe that JDT is too set in his ways and doesn't have a plan B.  If he cant change tactic or the players then his days are numbered.

  3. Been on BRFCS since I dont know when and know / met one or two of its members.

    For quite a few years I virtually kept the news section of this site running on my own, until changing my day job restricted my access to the site.

    Used to be the Rovers correspondent for Soccernet until the day job resticted the time available to sit down and write articles.

    Started supporting Rovers in 1975 when I moved to the area, and didnt miss home games for years, even when I moved down to the Midlands. Those mid-week midnight trips back down the M6 after a defeat took hours but after a win they only seemed to take minutes.

    Moved back north 5 years ago but due to work commitments and current management structure didnt buy a season ticket this year for the first time since when I cant remember. Have become a walk on supporter, trouble is I havent found the need or desire to walk on at all this season.

    Best momemt memory as a supporter - getting a phone call one afternoon - first words I heard was.

    Hi Al, its Tim are you free to have a chat this afternoon - which resulted in a long and candide interview with Mr Bottle himself. Tim Flowers Interview

  4. Apparently this is the No.1 reason for boiler failure during the cold period. British Gas guy who visited us about two weeks ago on an unrelated matter advised pouring a kettle of boiling water over it once a day.

    I tried to buy some lagging but there'n none to be had anywhere in Chorley.

    Well my method of resolving the problem.

    (Dont try this at home children, unless you are confident of your DIY ability)

    Cut and Remove the 20mm upvc consensate overflow on the outside of the property, leave about 150mm where it exits the house.

    Replace with a 40mm upvc waste pipe and fit a 20/40mm rubber reducer into the 40mm waste pipe.

    Slide the 20mm overflow into the 40mm waste and secure the 40mm waste to your external wall.

    Use push fit, fittings- this allows you to slide the pipe apart if it still frezes, allowing you to pour a kettle of boiling water down the pipe.

    Wrap the exposed pipe with lagging if you can get it. Still available in Morecambe on Christmas Eve :D 33

  5. I'm copying Lees post from the official site, as I can't put this any better myself. All I will say at this time is that the thoughts of everybody is with the affected fan and his family and we all hope he pulls through.

    "

    Whilst it is certainly disturbing what has happened today at the ground. Can I ask supporters that instead of posting what they saw on here that if they have any important information that may help that they call the Staffordshire Police on 01785 236211.

    It is very easy for discussions to get taken out of context or be taken as fact (like the early reports on here that the chap was dead), so it might be better if any supporter who was unfortunate to witness this terrible event contacts the appropriate authorities."

    Think that those who were there should read Steb's post.

  6. He's not dead yet Dan, well according to reports.

    Let's hope this guy makes it.

    Ricky check you pm.box.

    Mods - edit the topic tittle to something more sensative such as Rovers Fan Injured
