Summer transfer window 2021.
Mattyblue replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Of course, targets come and go, watch a few episodes of that Sunderland documentary to see what a madhouse transfer windows can be at clubs in a big a mess as us. -
It was the fella (Jon Holden) that sells vintage ones outside the ground that tweeted it. Absolute aficionado, so if anyone has had a tip off…

Chaddy, read between the lines for once in your life, good god. -
Good local firm (Ronset) printed them too, I think. I know they did a lot of other stuff for the club. Watching a grand old institution that was pulled up by its bootstraps by Jack, after decades of local businessmen doing everything it could for the club, now atrophying rapidly under individuals that couldn’t give a toss. It’s horrible to witness.

Season Tickets (inc. Renewal Poll)
Mattyblue replied to Stuart's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Whatever happened to ‘Les’ who was phoning around season ticket holders to see if they’ll be back? Swag will presumably be ‘looking into’ his findings… whilst deleting the document. -
Sounds as if a hard copy match day programme is the next for the chopping block.

It’s still shockingly poor organisation to have a skeleton staff working on what, with STs, hospitality and new kits etc is probably the busiest week of the year for sales -

Won’t be furthering his career though… -

Until Hartlepool just got back up, the last few years has seen just THREE league clubs in the whole of the north east of England - in contrast there’s about 15 league clubs in a 40 mile radius of Blackburn So of course Sunderland have a sizeable catchment area to draw from, not sure how that equates to being more ‘passionate’ than anyone else. Indeed it makes old/real Lancashire by far the biggest heartland of the game. -

Mattyblue replied to Stuart's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I would think so. We always get a higher than standard crowd on the opening day due to a bigger number of walk ons than on a normal Saturday, that will be amplified post an 18 month absence. West Brom on the 21st will give us a better idea on how bad it’s going to be in home areas this season. -
Kit supplier and sponsor from 21/22
Mattyblue replied to alex l's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
So let me get this straight. On the final Saturday before we kick off with a home fixture (in the middle of the holiday season too), the club shop - that has just put on sale two well received new shirts, AND also doubles up as the ticket office (with the club scrambling to sell even a semi-respectable number of STs) was shut? Let’s face it, we are a million miles away from a competitive Championship set up in every department. -

Third division Bolton now with 10,000 sold… double Blackburn Rovers. Not a lot more to say, is there. -
Wasn’t aware that driving them out of town with pitchforks was ever ‘my way’? Just a normally run football club was all I’ve ever wanted, I’d have been delighted for these owners to provide it, I’ve always held out hope they would eventually come to their senses. But good to see you’ve realised you had your pants pulled down like the rest of us… just took you a fair bit longer.

With the rumours on the transfer topic, thought I’d resurrect the thread I started less than 6 months ago. There was a consensus that we’d only won the opening battle, though I’m sure we all didn’t expect it to rear its head this quickly (less than 4 months ago the plan was ‘withdrawn’). They should all hang said heads in shame, absolute disgrace.
