He won’t resign, so he should be removed from post. However, that would mean senior executives being held accountable at the club. The yearly failure over ticketing shows that constantly missing targets means bugger all.

Almost! Late 90s/early 2000s.

Oh yeah! I’ve completely removed the lockdown football period from my head.

Yes didn’t Venus end up with a second title of ‘Head of Football’ of something? Suppose his business card didn’t have room for ‘Head of Real Estate’ too…

That I do agree with, we’ll see in a week. However, plenty of those 2.5k just won’t renew, every summer plenty don’t for a plethora of reasons. So to push that appalling 7.5k to something remotely acceptable we need plenty of new and returning fans to not only take their place but to actually push sales on - you know those Rovers fans that have to pay a £30 surcharge for the same product for god knows what reason…

League game in July? First ever?

11 games by mid September, glad in a way that they have decided to front load the fixtures pre World Cup instead of a miserable midweek game every week in January/February

Cheers for posting transfer links Chaddy, but do we really need some of these anonymous Twitter attention seeing accounts with one man and his dog following them?

The days of local games at Christmas and New Year have long gone. No public transport? Tough! Case in point, nice easy trip for Cardiff fans on NYD!

Unfortunately unless you are a ‘big 6’ club the media think the casual football fan will only pay a blind bit of notice to any other club if they have a connection to an ex superstar player.

Yep, just those extra 3/4K, taking you from a 12k to a 15/16k crowd really makes a difference at Ewood.

It’ll be Sunday 12pm, Sky or no Sky you’d think?

Though some of those 7k are probably complementaries, a grey dot is a grey dot. So in reality we’ve less than 7k paid 2022/23 ST holders as of last week.

Exactly, so what’s your point?

We’ll also have a load of complementaries and staff tickets, as does every club.

He knows this as he’s been told repeatedly, so he’s being purposely disingenuous for some unknown reason (well we probably do know), or he really is this slow on the uptake.

For about the third time, they are post early bird prices. They signed 12,000 up before these prices kicked in. These were the prices:

Come on Darren, players always say the right things, but if a good enough deal comes in, he’s gone, end of.

So naive! His mum ain’t going to tell all and sundry in the away end the ins and outs! 😁

There’s no point speculating until the claim your seat deadline passes at the end of the month, we are in the dark at the minute. But the facts are we had just scraped over 7k when the second extension was put in place. So to have more than four figures by KO is a big ask, and that’s a failure, a big one at that.

That’s called the ‘Blues Bar’, it just needs restoring to its former glory. First step get all that fantastic Rovers memorabilia it used to have out of storage and get it back up on the walls (presuming they haven’t lobbed it all). One of many bizarre decisions, a bit like removing those fantastic timeline murals at both corners of the Jack Walker…

‘Uncompetitive’ is probably the wrong word, but it does lack intensity. Which is fair enough when it consists of young lads, first team players out of favour (some with a sulk on) and first teamers nursing their way back from injuries.

Always! Quickly skim the list for -first game, first away game, Christmas, derbies (please be a weekend), Easter, last game. If you stop looking forward to the fixtures being released you may as well give up!

I hope so too, however its a big, big step up from semi pro and U23 football. But good to look him, certainly looks to have a good attitude.

Hope he has a real good day.
