  1. I miss the days when if you bought a player who is better than whatever you have you put them in the side. Mimms to Flowers in 1993 Filan/Kelly to Friedel in 2000 Pears has shown himself to be an ok keeper who can come in for 3 or 4 games here and there but he shouldn't be a regular championship number one for me. Hopefully Toth gets in for this.
  2. 1 goal in 8 games, I don't think Dolan will end up with many by the end of the season to be honest.
  3. As good as Cantwell was on Saturday, I just thought it was strange chucking him straight in last night. Personally thought he would have been much better off the bench again when chasing a goal.
  4. Think this season Dolan has played well in our home games, and pretty poor in 3 of our 4 away games. A bog standard average championship player, playing for a bog standard average championship team, Who would have thought?
  5. An even better excuse to go.
  6. What's our Wednesday night away record since 2012 like?!
  7. I saw something recently, think it was on twitter that we have only taken 35 points from the 61 championship away midweek matches we have had since relegation in 2012. Hopefully we can start to make that a little more respectable starting tonight.
  8. It's just pro rata'd down from the price of the phase 3 season ticket. Something they do every year, for none or next to none sales.
  9. That's the team I think will play and would probably go for too. I don't think we need to be rushing Cantwell to start this week, another couple of sub appearances, maybe another under 21 start in the next international break, and then unleash him against Swansea in the first game back.
  10. They aren't going to stop a club getting promotion because they don't have digital season tickets. Says there is a 2 year "switch over" period if you get promotion and aren't digital only, although I imagine we will be digital only before any such promotion happens,
  11. Not only Dolan, need to start thinking about Travis, Tronstad and Brittain as they all expire in 2026.
  12. https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2024/september/30/premier-league-cup-contest-postponed/ Game postponed tonight.
  13. Consultations are just a way to let folk know what is going to happen, always say they take views on board but never really do.
  14. I think its a combination of all of those you mention, hard working, experienced lack of alternative and height. I do think his height gives him an advantage sometimes getting picked, last season at times we had a front 4 of Szmodics, Dolan, Markandey & Moran. All 5'8 and under.
  15. Good header at the back post last season against Stoke across goal for Szmodics to score. So he has it in his locker, we just don't utilise his height very well.
  16. If you ring them today, they will post them out today and when they obviously don't turn up tomorrow you can get back in touch with the club and they will arrange for Cov to print duplicates for you to pick up there. An unnecessary long winded way around getting a ticket when there will be hundreds free in the away end but that is an option.
  17. We could have played Mcfadzean to be fair if you absolutely had to that, obviously not ideal but was an option. I personally don't think we'll never see Brittain and Beck starting in the same team again when everyone's fit, as mentioned we did absolutely fine against Burnley with them both playing, even before we went down to 10.
  18. I find it interesting when people post there line ups that it's always Cantwell in behind the forward and Dolan back out on the left. Going off Saturday, I think when Cantwell does get himself in the team as a regular starter he will be out on the left and Dolan will remain central. Cantwell played his best football at Norwich when out on the left.
  19. I thought this too, then realised that in our toughest game so far we played both Brittain and Beck!
  20. Always a tricky place for us to go Cov. Our last league win in Coventry was August 1992, with only a league cup win and a win against them at St Andrews since. Personally think we're looking at another tight draw, with the potential to nick it. I don't think we'll lose.
  21. December is spelt wrong too on the Man City away game.
  22. Someone really needs to bring up this ridiculous process with away tickets at the next meeting. All the tickets are there on the counter, I can collect them from Ewood, but i can't nip in and actually physically buy them. Makes no sense at all.
  23. There might be one or two, but I suspect the amount of under 12s tickets sold is just because they are so cheap so people are buying them for there kids even of they only go to a couple of games.
  24. No he never signed for us, he was very close and I'm guessing that's what he remembers and maybe thought it had gone through.
  25. I do find it a bit of a strange operation to be honest. Trust was set up because of these owners running the club into the ground, yet the Trust also seems terrified of upsetting the said owners from the outside. Going off the FF minutes, seems like the club are annoyed about this £30 off adult ST's this season (that the Trust claimed as there doing and were delighted with) and to be honest I'm fully expecting rises next season back to maybe £399 early bird or something.
