We're going to have to be in some serious form heading into this game to get over 20k. Like tomphil says above it makes the Derby look like a joke.

Pretending it's something to do with police.

£40 for a Jack Walker central ticket. All to fleece 4k dingles.

Yeah he was brilliant, one of my favourite ever Rovers players even though like you say we only saw the best of him for a short time. A lot forget that he pipped Shearer to be our player of the year in 93/94 too.

Hyam and Hedges are easy to just trigger the option to kick the can down the road another year, so we'll definitely do that. Wiemann and Batth I could see agreeing new one year deals too just to pad out the squad.

There's no way you will need over 300 points to get a ticket for this game. I think the either someone at the ticket office is confused and thought the poster was on about Burnley away (which of course has already happened) or the poster has simply misheard.

Yet Sunderland can have the whole end on Boxing Day at 3pm. It's all a con.

Imagine it will be an unchanged team, but I would be tempted to get Beck in for Hedges to give us a bit better flexibility to go 3 at the back in this game.. Fully expecting a very similar game to the Sheffield Utd one, lots of effort and huff and puff but ultimately undone by a better side. Rovers 0 Leeds 2

Think we have Carter until 2027 so no immediate rush on him, all the others though are up within the next 18 months. I have no faith that we'll do anything with them.

So a non ST holding Rovers fan can only go to this game if they have attended in the past 12 months?!

That's just the new 1875 member + ST holders, then ST holders, then general sale from previous seasons.

How old is he?

I imagine it will go in the week commencing 16/12, failing that there's a few midweeks free in Jan.

Sunderland have been allocated 7k for Boxing Day, but the game is a 3pm kick off. How can that be so?

January will be too soon. I can see him being sold in the Summer though if he stays fit and has a good second half of the season.

Seemed to be regular's when the club reduced ST's (slightly) on the basis of there recommendation.

We have a pretty good record straight after the international break in recent times. Since start of last season we have played 6, won 5 and lost 1. You are correct that being midweek probably kills this one though! Hopefully we'll be fairly fresh and can nick a draw.

No chance of a loan like that, it will be the likes of that lad from Fulham we nearly signed on deadline day.

Who is paying for him?

Cost Cutters FC aren't open on Mondays anymore to contact, would have to be Tuesday.

Leeds in December 1994 was another one due to rain. Completely agree with the rest of the post though.

From memory, this is the 4th game at Ewood postponed due to "weather" since 2010. 2012 vs Brighton, 2015 vs Middlesbrough, 2022 vs Milwall and today. Since that Wimbledon game you mentioned in 1993 to 2010 i think we had two, Leeds at Ewood in December 1994, and Sunderland on the same date in 2005, although think that one was a frozen pitch rather than waterlogged. Might have missed one or two not sure.

Only Fleetwood by the looks of it, Rochdale too if we're going that far down. Nothing at North End or Bolton who are a 1230 game.

Waggott also confirmed that Burnley will get a better allocation this season, reckon they get at least 5k.

Club certainly aren't bothered about any of that. Remember the Milwall fiasco a couple of seasons ago. If they call it off it will be after 2pm.
