Numbered with who? The never ending story with TM tells us that these days this lot don’t sack contracted managers.

Your problem Mash is that you don’t seem to realise that folk hurt in the aftermath of a horrendous defeat, so of course they will come across as irrational and say things they probably wouldn’t a day later, it’s part and parcel with football fans, it’s a passionate pastime. So maybe give the disapproving finger wagging a rest for once.

First few pages of this thread are a laugh ‘well I certainly won’t be watching’, ‘England games and that’s it’, ‘I’m boycotting’… most of the same posters have since given a minute by minute running commentary. 😁

The Terrace and Etsy do too…

All the club can do is put the under soil heating on and sort out other elements they can control, I.e entrances and walkways within the Ewood estate. If they have been doing, great, as there have been times when they haven’t, including Millwall last season. The rest of it is out of their control and as you say if the ref or other ‘stakeholders’ say no game then fair enough.

Nobody has agreed with you. Everybody else agrees that the retail operation at Ewood is crap and has been for years. Maybe I will contact them, they might then list a club shop staff list on the website or something…

We had no kits with Umbro for months on end pre Covid, we have no kits now. You can’t find any other clubs with zero kits on sale. So please, please stop making a fool of yourself.

Because like a lot of countries there is also a sizeable middle class with plenty of disposable income.

So *three* examples out of the hundreds of clubs out there of some sizes not being available and not one example of home shirts not being available. Whereas we have 0 available in any size. Well worth your research on a Friday night 🤦‍♂️ Hmm, as this has been going on for years (apart from February, checks notes, 2016) maybe, just maybe there is an issue with the retail operation at BRFC. Why do you constantly defend the incompetents that somehow have a position at this club over wanting the best for the club itself? You need to have a long hard look at yourself.

Chaddy, just stop, you’ve embarrassed yourself enough on this thread. These logistical and manufacturing problems are obviously a non issue as *every other* club has plenty of kits in stock.

Guess what, not everybody is like you and buys a shirt in July. That’s why every other club has shirts in stock right now, because there is this thing called ‘Christmas’ where people exchange gifts.

Outsourced and out of mind. Contrast it to the service you get at a club like Accy. There’s just a real shrug of the shoulders and decay about the whole commercial operation.

Accy already called off, so let’s hope for no repeat of the Millwall farce…

Assuming they’ve flogged c4,000, so c14,500 Rovers fans at £30-£35 for a Sky game in this weather… can’t see it unfortunately.

Certainly does on the football side, so it’s a real shame the re-org in the summer didn’t finish the job across the executive structure…

Be most apt to piss away Jack’s final legacy to end up back at Pleasy…

A programme? Good luck with that, another Swag cut. I mean only rich clubs, you know, like Clitheroe and Chorley, can afford such luxuries…

The fact he gave them a full allocation of 7,000+ straight off (e.g not an initial allocation) says he fully expected them to get close to selling it… at £30, on Sky, at midday, just before Christmas, in a cost of living crisis. The man just doesn’t have the faintest clue about what drives ticket sales in this area (and if he’s shocked by PNE, wait for the Blackpool and Wigan Cat A turnout).

Alas it’s ‘the next summer’ that never arrives!

The academy is obviously going great guns, so it needs bulldozing because…

Noticed the official Facebook account is posting a random collection of stuff you can (still) get in the shop. I’ve seen socks and I’ve seen shorts - no shirts though… no chance of being a FKW with this club!

Can this person please be removed from post before he does any more damage.

‘Ben Frost, something, something…’

No I don’t accept it as no other club is having any kit stock issues. Just the standard Rovers tin pot commercial operation, I’m afraid.

You finally got there in the end! Let’s hope it doesn’t take as long next time…
