They’ll be stuck in China because of Covid or was it the Suez Canal? I forget what excuse we are going with this time.

Not a single post on his thread for over four years says a fair bit. Decent run of form under JDT, but largely average displays either side (when not injured). Bits and pieces player.

Yeah but they are The Gentry though 🎩.

Ha I was merely speculating… but there you go! But still, something about ‘plastics’.

Like how the SpudBros are trying to pretend they are life long nobbers, not LFC like the majority of the place.

But then you have to have been content to know that everything that happened between 1991 and 2010, wouldn’t have, including the Ewood we now have, the training ground, the academy. If you hand on heart are, fair enough, not sure I am. Venky’s are the outlier in 150 years of history, if the idiotic Walkers had sold up to anyway half normal owners we wouldn’t be having this conversation.

Blackpool at Brockhall on a midweek afternoon.

Cashing in on daft TikTokkers.

Indeed they do (and further afield than that), yet the club seems to think their engagement (if you can even call it that) has to stop outside the arbitrarily drawn 1970s BwD borders… yet one look at their own database will surely tell them that the majority of the fanbase is now outside the town.

But in reality, what will happen? ‘We want Venky’s out’ some bedsheets about Suhail? A midweek match will probably have about 6k in the ground next season. Of course, the fact there will be 6k in the ground for said games tells you what the wider fanbase has done - walked away in their droves, no better show of dissent than that to panic the owners of a business… but this lot couldn’t give a flying fuck about that.

The death by a thousand cuts/slow boil of a frog, what ever analogy you want to use is why this lot will always get away with it, as they’ve always done just enough to keep the show on the road, be it wages or whatever else. They’ve always been canny enough to not let it all explode into the open, a la Sheff Wed. It is the worst possible situation to be in as it allows them to run the club down without any scrutiny until they’ve reduced us to god knows what level… with a good percentage of the fanbase applauding them as they do it, by the way.

Good that there’s a Head of Women’s Football though overseeing things down there… only snag no women allowed in.

Think the FF is either this week or next, so presumably they’ll give an update. Looks like very few have been sold post phase 1 (quelle surprise), so 8 thousand and something?

The 150th should be something like £15 an adult, £1.50 a kid (or whatever), try and get as big a crowd as possible… but yeah this lot, they’ll make it Cat A and then be amazed that having Kevin Gallacher et al walk around the pitch pre game and some other naff stuff doesn’t lead to a bumper gate.

What a bunch of grifters they are down there. £33 to £38 on a weekend to sit in the Darwen End Upper ‘central’ (whatever that’s supposed to be?). Obviously spotted it’s something QPR do.

The two corners between the Jack Walker and the BE/DE would be great for a history mura… oh.

Obviously a shoe string operation down there… so of course, twenty odd ‘Head Ofs…’ are certainly required to spend those pennies down there, especially the one now overseeing an amateur team.

Darwen is more of a Rovers hotbed than Blackburn these days, so get the cream in there!

If a tribute to the borough… where’s the cream/beige?

Yet obviously a club that is a giant in comparison couldn’t possibly offer something similar, because, well, ‘we can’t’ ©️Fans Forum minutes since c2012.

No I left it there as you are unable to give your own explanation (as you don’t have one). So no point flogging a dead horse. A 🦜 of authority lines, like you have been since the day you joined.

That’s Stanley selling it, not Sodexho.

Might be one of their biggest crowds this season, as much smaller away followings in L2 compared to L1 as they’ll have noticed last season. No Bradford filling two stands either… bet Oldham fetch plenty there though.

‘I mean it’s been since 1992 that they’ve been moving Saudi league fixtures so they can behead people on the pitch, so get over it’… wait, hang on, think I’ve mixed that up with something else, so much hypocrisy, I get confused.

There you go. I admire it to be fair… all without media training too.
