Will you still be doing your annual Tottenham title tip in the summer, Chadster?

v Oxford United (a) - 18/1/25

Yeah don’t recognise that description of Brittain… he’s not even the slowest full back in the current squad. -

He’s painted himself into a corner and just can’t put his hand up and say ‘yep, got that one wrong’. No, shame in it, we’ve all judged players too early, unfortunately once Rev gets an opinion in his head, that’s that. -
Hang on, a certain poster was telling us that we now had a well set up structure from the academy through to recruitment and that’s why managers aren’t important anymore.

Maybe Trav and Tronstadt worked well as a partnership, complemented each others game, what you reckon? You think Trav would’ve had the season he’s had next to Baker or Buckley or Forshaw? -

Gestede has a job here he wouldn’t get near anywhere else, so I’m sure he’s happy enough. -
Tracking our (outbound) loan players 24/25

Yeah but the fella will get a job at Swansea or wherever next on the back of his ‘principles’, feck Barrow. -
We’ll be back to being one once Balaji’s great great grandson gets it right.

Good, proper football club is our fellow Founder Member.

That’s a complete nonsensical argument. Boycott the BBC! In fact, why doesn’t he just stop paying the licence fee while he’s at it and get a criminal record because he’s annoyed with an FA Cup tie on iPlayer. Should he boycott going to watch Blackburn Rovers and EFL games in general as they are the ones that signed the deal? Debate properly and stop being daft.

January Transfer window

All gone a bit pear shaped for the owners, hasn’t it.. But no point changing course, just keep hold of it for another 15 years. -
To have the games going on from a Thursday night to the following Tuesday night (following all those games in the last round being moved just to satisfy overseas TV, why not kick those off at 3pm then if it’s not even a UK broadcast?) is a not pretty well disguised ‘fuck you’ to match going supporters. I’ve noticed the FA’s latest self-referential slogan is ‘The Greater Game’, when in reality what leads to ‘The Greater Revenue’ is all they’ve cared about ever since that place in north west London was re-built ridiculously over budget…
-
Indeed it is, there you go then, even more batshit.
-
Usually it’s five EFL games at 12.30 on a Saturday, but just one on a Friday night, one Sunday 3pm. That makes sense how?
-
I’d say it’s the FA’s voracious pursuit of money - also see semi finals at Wembley.
-
Young Joe! He used to get very huffy if we ever questioned ‘The Data’… but he’s the one living the dream at Barrow, so there you go!

2024/25 Season Tickets

ST income very much so, it’s one of the few things they do care about, it pays Swag’s bonus for a start. -

They won’t do it for a full season, certainly not for the whole ground, would see steep falls in ST sales. -
Venky’s v Indian Government (a)
Mattyblue replied to tomphil's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I honestly think they’ll own it for generations. Unbelievable really that we’ve ended up with such a unique ownership situation, in which they are not remotely interested in the club, but won’t countenance selling it either. -

The likes of Swag operate in the interests of the owners, not for the betterment of Blackburn Rovers. -

His attitude is very much is in question as I've heard it directly from a member of the Brockhall medical staff that Eustace has been less than impressed with him - Tronstadt chucking him a piece of cloth for five minutes is neither here nor there. That's what I've been told, take it or leave it. -

I've heard his attitude is very much in question when it comes to putting it in at Brockhall... -
Considering how poor the output from the academy has been re strikers, I suppose just getting a game in the Championship would make Leonard ‘generational’.
-
‘Generational talent’, Leonard? Like the lad, but a tad hyperbolic there…
