  1. Nobody else spot his big grin when his beauty of a ball made it through to Chapman?
  2. https://www.pne-online.net/forum/index.php?threads/summer-transfer-window-rumours-and-discussion.3430936/page-650 What they bothered about? Thought he wouldn’t get close to being in the ‘best midfield in the league’? ?‍♂️
  3. Watford/Luton early kick off, as it’s a derby.. for a behind closed doors game ?‍♂️
  4. Or he could ask on here? And we could discuss it, this being a forum an all...
  5. Gary Weaver (I think). Rob Hawthorne wouldn’t lower himself to the EFL these days.
  6. https://www.blackburnrovers100club.co.uk/newsStory.aspx?storyID=4&sectionID=1 and gym equipment... https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2020/february/100-club-ensure-rovers-are-well-equipped/ Oh and doing up the lounges and new nets... https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2017/november/academy-nets-100-club-boost/
  7. Seen that two League 2 games have been called off due to positive tests. Could all get very messy come winter...
  8. ’Throw mud at the club?’ As ‘99 is one of only 1,200 to actually buy a ST, you’ve got the wrong target there. We are the new ‘100 Club’, wonder if I’ll be getting a call from Waggott asking to fund a new bus for the Academy...
  9. Derby playoff? How about ‘Speedie hat trick hunting, Speedie... ‘
  10. I reckon I could recite the voiceovers on all our 90s VHS’ even now.
  11. We haven’t sold many because they were months later on sale than most clubs, went up in price by £50-£80 in the midst of a pandemic and recession, nobody had a clue when we’d be back in grounds and by the time we finally got something on the market we went into a local lockdown about 3 days later.
  12. Don’t recall Chaddy saying it was a bad idea ‘because we can’t guarantee entry’ when they went on sale...
  13. I didn’t want or expect a daily Ewood Park briefing. However, It was piss poor communication to say NOTHING to fans (apart from a re-written EFL statement in June) from March until the begging bowl came out a week before the Season in September.
  14. I don’t feel cheated, I went on holiday in a pandemic, I bought a ST for a closed football ground in a pandemic, ‘you pays your money...’ My worry is that 80/90% of our already diminished ST base haven’t bought one, and will have been out of Ewood for 18 months by the start of next season. Trying to get those well out of the habit folk back in a time of high unemployment - especially if prices are £400- £600 (if not more) - will be fiendishly difficult, and also a rather unique challenge as most of our rivals have thousands signed up already.
  15. Apart from Downing who was in talks to stay (and now may well retire at 36), Hart is the only one of our released players not to get a gig somewhere...
  16. Not short of a few bob Trevor Hemmings, but he isn’t Rao family wealthy, you know those of the ‘never refuse a cheque’ fame. Yet it’s Rovers fans that ‘need to ensure the club’s survival’ by eschewing refunds and signing up to STs for a product that won’t exist. All most odd.
  17. Seems like common sense from PNE, as like us, they were late getting them on sale and had a fan backlash re pricing, so will also have sold minimal. So will we see something similar? Don’t bet on it.
  18. Football fans come into different camps. The folk I regularly go to away games with all renewed, our WhatsApp group is full of chat just how you describe, itching to get back. However, I also know fans that have a season ticket but generally take it or leave it, like a few pints on a Saturday, etc, but don’t particularly obsess about Rovers the rest of the time - not one of those have renewed and I’m not picking up much desperation to get back. It’s group two we need to worry about ‘getting out the habit’ .
  19. Evans is still out with a ‘bruised foot’.... keep yourself in that cotton wool Corry lad, almost time for the international squad announcements.
  20. Feck the left back, get that window closed!
  21. There’s often ‘lies, damn lies and statistics’ when it comes to football stats, but then there’s BB where even the data spits out his contribution as... ‘zero’.
  22. ‘Roll up, roll up...’
  23. A lad from Brighton telling long standing, die hard fans who have existential worries about the future of our beloved club (but have still put their money into the club without a product in the midst of a mega recession, by the way) that they are ‘ridiculous’.
