And very likely to be a daft time too like 5.30pm due to S4C.

Be very surprised if it’s a usual cheap early cup round price. A potential full Darwen End and I’d wager a fair few more Rovers fans turning out than round three will put pay to that.

You’re right, the 75% think they’re marvellous.

So the revolving door of loans for the next five years begins. Still, he’ll be on a cracking wedge for a teenager, so who cares, ay? -
Wonder if Dacky will be following him.

Their fans are pretty chuffed about it… https://www.smallheathalliance.com/read.php?1,3509577 Sunderland’s aren’t.. https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/mowbray-to-birmingham.1624568/ Made me laugh on here when people were trying to say he’d never get another Championship job after here, the ‘wider game’ thinks he’s a pretty good manager.

Ted Harper 1925/26 - 43 goals, English record too at the time. -

If folk want to take Swag at face value that’s their prerogative but I’d take anything he says with a huge pinch of salt. -
Spotted Sky have picked their live games until the end of February… surprise, surprise we aren’t on at all, so there are some perks to mid table mediocrity. Also means PNE will be Saturday 3pm.

You know what’s coming: ‘Digital Day big success! Our data tells us that 67% bought a digital ticket up from 57% previously with many fans taking the opportunity to go digital for the first time as the club continues its green journey’ The fact 3,000 fewer Rovers fans were present than last January’s tie and sales were truly horrendous pre the last minute u-turn obviously won’t be in the press release. -

People are obviously free to post what they want when they want, I’m not the forum police but calling JDT a clueless clown who has to go when there’s 85 minutes to go is ridiculously OTT (as well as not remotely true) especially when we end up with a big win. -

I was at the match so no chance of a reception anyway, but it’s why I never comment on the thread during the game, football is a fluid sport that you need to judge at full time, you can look a bit daft calling for the manager’s head, ‘clown’, ‘clueless’, stating we are going down etc etc if the team improves/turns the game round. -
Whereas TM got nothing of the sort despite having some real piss poor seasons on a higher budget. And of course we never hear anything against Swag, Venky’s or anyone else. They get away with murder.

Nothing at all wrong with 900 for a game like that… but there was always plenty wrong according to you lot when we used to take similar to such games. At least you’ve got real now and realised clubs like ours won’t be taking multiple thousands everywhere when the novelty has worn off.

Not great first half, but dominated the second, created a load of chances and the main man got a hat trick. I hate most things about modern day Blackburn Rovers, but you have to enjoy an afternoon like that or why bother. -

I know there is, I know plenty like that myself, but for the likes of us it’s obviously much more than that or I wouldn’t be on here right now, and neither would you. -

Supporting a football club isn’t purely about watching the team though, is it, or we wouldn’t get so impassioned about it all. -

If you aren’t watching how can you judge a player especially when its a defensive midfielder and his judgement is based on ‘goals and assists’ - his whole game is based on breaking up the play and moving the ball. Ridiculous take from Rev that, he’s been excellent. -

He’s slipped down the pecking order, that’s football. So did Scott Wharton earlier in the season, should he have been shipped out too? Of course not, just like Buckley shouldn’t have been, it’s a squad game and there’s 50+ matches for an injury prone, small squad to navigate. He’s still had plenty of minutes. But what’s good for the team and ergo results is way down the list of priorities at this club. -
My view is if they are better than what we have get them in - Harvey Elliott, for example. But if they are just raw, slight 19/20 year olds that struggle to adapt to the Championship why have them ‘blocking the pathways’ of our own, to use a well known Greggy phrase…
