Getting into semantics now just so to avoid agreeing with ‘99

He DOES NOT pester journalists. He just asks them for ‘any Rovers news?’ 14 times every 3 months... or something. Please WITHDRAW your comment!

Derby have suspended sales today due to their ongoing legal issues. Sheff Wed have had them on sale previously, sold thousands in their early bird period. So those two clubs are obviously not who you would use as examples due to legal uncertainty. But Ok then - a majority of clubs not under league investigation have them on sale. Take it you ignored the examples I gave, fair enough, but fine we are in esteemed company with PNE and Reading, but let’s not bemoan cash flow when the majority of the league has raked in millions of pounds. Few more - https://newstadium.brentfordfc.com/season-tickets https://www.canaries.co.uk/season-tickets/ https://www.wycombewanderers.co.uk/news/2020/june/season-ticket-renewals-now-available/ https://www.stokecityfc.com/tickets/season-cards https://www.mfc.co.uk/tickets/season-cards/season-card-prices-and-benefits https://www.htafc.com/news/2020/april/season-cards-renewal-deadline-extended/

Pretty much every other club in the league has them on sale - with most reporting thousands sold.

David Beckham Suite at Deepdale levels of tinpottery...

They Skype-ing with Pune now then?

So... the point of those contract extensions for Hart and Smallwood was what, exactly?

Warnock was saying last night that he fancies staying on and having them at the top end of the table...

The only possibility of that I foresee is if the owners massively cut his budget. There’s no doubt his stint here has improved his reputation in the game as it was on the floor when he arrived. So jump ship whilst his stock is high and become one of those managers always linked to the conveyor belt of Championship management jobs.

Saw a tweet from you last night, sure it said that you thought Waggott and Mowbray would be off? (unless I read it wrong, was late).

This summer isn’t normal. If it was, another middling season, but no Kean or Coyle in the hot seat as a fan repellant, I would have expected a similar number sold (you always get some, ‘bloody shite, won’t be going on again until x’, but it would still be in the ball park of last summer). But in this new world, the tail off of form just adds to the mess the club is in - being pretty much the only club in the league with 0 ST holders (most clubs have had STs on sale for months with thousands signed up), a massive recession, worries about health and safety and 6 to 9 months out of the ground so habits beginning to break, tells me it will be a disastrous figure sold.

63 points from 60 points. I suppose it’s quite literally ‘progression’. Though I’m pretty sure that when finishing mid table in two successive seaons, albeit one with a handful of extra points, we didn’t used to crow about ‘progress’, it was just another middling season. To me its just trying to justify the stasis that envelops Blackburn Rovers.

I believe he didn’t want to leave, loved his life living in the Ribble Valley. We’d just finished 6th by spanking Tottenham 4-0 at White Hart Lane, Duff was fantastic. From memory he was literally about to leave on our pre season tour when Souness said we’d accepted an offer...

We went the 9 games post lockdown without a clean sheet (plus the two matches prior).

Good luck with that. Best put a caveat on any Mowbray Out/new manager thread ’Posters know that TM will be manager next season, this thread is entirely hypothetical and for discussion purposes only’.

He means on this internet thingy.. I doubt Amo is a Guardian buyer

Blue and white shirts away from Ewood. Wonders never cease!

Oh I see. Was he winding folk up though? Thought he was getting put right back in his box, myself...

Once again my posts are being deleted...

If you say so!

Leeds have only ever achieved anything in a couple of small spells, late 60s to mid 70s and the 1992 title win. The way they go on you’d think they were (Manchester) United.

Why will it? Who’s ‘angry/frustrated’ with Leeds bloody United. Hilarious delusions of grandeur. You’ve been in the lower leagues for 16 years, just because the media gets all misty eyed with a club that fills their ground when doing well (not exactly difficult being the only club in one of the UK’s biggest cities), but you are just another club.

‘Bad times’? Eh? It makes the league even more competitive and it’s still years away from the next TV deal negotiation. But you’re probably right, how WILL we cope without the mighty Leeds

28 and playing in the fourth division, finally at his level. Still hurts my brain to think of how many years we allowed him to stink up our midfield.

Competition organisers, nothing more (and they can’t even do that properly with the farcical situation this evening).
