Unfortunately it seems the majority that still bother going are the "club, Mowbray and venkys can do no wrong types" Thoroughly depressing.

1500 maybe. Unfortunately I think the vast majority of that 15,000 that disappeared are gone forever, regardless of venkys.

Presume tomorrow's game isn't being streamed?

I'm going to predict nobody signs today.

Nice thought but "Mowbray" and "grinding out results" don't really go together.

My guess is that they will announce it nearer to kick off if they are, as tickets go off sale at 6pm.

They only announced away ticket details for there home game with Portsmouth in the cup yesterday and that's just before we play them, so would imagine by start of next week they will be on sale. Portsmouth have been given 2k there.

Be allowed until they decide to tighten up restrictions in the Autumn/Winter I presume.

Leighton Clarkson from Liverpool is my guess. Young, cheap, two professional games so far in his career, can wax lyrical about our relationship with a top side etc etc Ticks all the boxes for this lot.

Dunno about all that lot, but I remember us wearing our away kit a few of times at Ewood before. 93-94 vs Man City 06-07 vs Basel in the Uefa Cup 14-15 vs Stoke in a pre season friendly.

Whilst I don't work for Peacock and Smith, I do work in this industry, and all I will say the answer to this question begins with a Y.

Would be amazed if they managed to sort that out.

It's an historic kit, why wouldn't you reverse the halves on the back?!

I really hate that the halves aren't reversed on the back. Just smacks to me of no attention to detail of how the kit should look.

I reckon Mowbray will just be on a 12 month rolling contract after this season until he's had enough.

Its just a generic message they put on that is, the reality is there is nobody there to answer the call, and it only gets picked up when someone happens to be walking past it.

At any other club yes. Here though? Communication is non existent so no, it isn't.

Surely this would be ideal to trial for the Bradford and Bolton games since Rovers fans aren't allowed to go?

Alternate ones will probably just be applicable if needed, like if the decide to go for a Navy Blue away shirt one season or something.

With all due respect, its a bit different being immense in a competitive league like the Championship than it is at Fylde in a half hearted pre season friendly. I really do hope I eat my words, but if we're relying on him coming good and staying injury free this season I think we're in for a struggle. As has been said, surely the sensible option is to see how he gets on for a season in the league below before we thrust him in?

Doesn't matter, he still hasn't played. Back injuries at that age isn't a good sign. Don't doubt he is talented, but I would be amazed if he succeeds here.

Butterworth is nearly 22 and hasn't started a game of professional league football yet. Not a chance he makes it at Rovers.

Just read an article in the LET saying that the Bolton game, as well as the Bradford game will be home fans only.

Isn't that just a "reserve" freindly similar to the one we played at Darwen yesterday? Can't imagine Kaminski, Armstrong, etc lining up in that one.

Also about how the players took turns on being on the bench, he thought it was ridiculous and any position on the pitch/bench should be earned on merit.
