Interesting. Well we'll see if it was just a one off 'nod to our past' as the launch patter said about the Cambridge blue soon enough...
-
I was just responding to you saying we have a ‘similar budget’. I don’t think we do.
-
So? No different to if any club bought a £7million player. That is the nature of the beast online, he’s had great support at matches and that’s all that matters.
-
I would say our wage bill, transfer budget and all round infrastructure overheads (academy etc.) are considerably higher than Preston North End.
-
Obviously red and black would be best. However halved shirts are unique to us in English football - we don’t make enough of it, and if our away shirt was generally variations of halves each season, then great.
-
Some folk are just trolls and will say outrageous things because they can and for a reaction, they doesn’t reflect the fanbase in any way. But of course the usual ‘see! Typical, negative Rovers fans’ brigade will be all over it.
-
He’ll certainly never make it at Rovers. But I also think a place on a second tier bench will be the pinnacle for him. League 1 or 2 and there’s a chance he can carve out a decent career - but I think he needs to go this summer for his own good as he needs to move on from development football.

Everyone around me was absolutely delighted when he scored and it must have been the largest cheer of the season when the PA fella announced him as the scorer. People will always have an opinion, it used to just be in the pub or over the garden fence, however it’s now largely online. He’s had fantastic support at games and that’s all that matters.
-
BB is still miles off ‘a player’ and remember it was against a totally demoralised rabble on Monday. However, I would agree that there is ‘something’ there. Nuttall, I’m afraid, will never make it at this level.
-
I believe we didn’t actually wear a badge in those days, it was just a one off for the cup final. We only started wearing one in the late 70s, a red rose. Older fans please correct me!

Maybe for our 150th anniversary season?

Good seller though, looking around Ewood yesterday

Other Football League 2018/19

Stanley have always pulled out a win when needed, so I can see them getting a result. -
Either red and black halves or stripes. Or yellow. Traditional Rovers away colours and we should always alternate between them.
-
Apart from an odd bit of murmuring, which is to be expected when you have been as off form as BB has, and something every player gets, he has had excellent support from the fans throughout. So it annoyed me to see the usual fools on the LT website etc. slagging off ‘typical Rovers fans getting on his back’, when it wasn’t the case at all.
-
Yep, we couldn’t get near them.
-
It was time for a change, but he was a fantastic manager for us and exactly what we needed when he was appointed.

Season Tickets 2019/2020

I imagine the red button will leave a fair few people who struggle to make night games with a decision to make... -
It should only be re-opened if they are going to make it a PROPER singing section. Flags, banners, reduced prices for young adults etc. You know, bit of fan engagement like every other club
-
Ticket prices are wholly based on potential away followings. Local game... Cat A as there will be 3,000 minimum to fleece... 900 sold. West Brom on new year’s day... Cat A as they are gong for promotion, PL recently, they’ll bring plenty on a bank holiday... 1500 sold. Another Waggott mess up.

DE for management consultant!
-
Indeed EA. I remember Souness missing a late season dead rubber game for us as he went scouting players instead.
-
Portsmouth and Coventry on the big screen you say? I'm on me way!

I’ve noticed other clubs how now sorted out alternative credit arrangements with Zebra kaput. So, that shouldn’t be an excuse now... -
We’ve had more dickhead Preston fans on here than any other.
