Yep, WATR have already hinted at that.

Think back to the 125th anniversary commemorations, the one off kit, books etc, you just know it will be a pathetic 150th one put on by the present bunch of nomarks running the club.

We spent plenty in the late 90s, just largely squandered by Hodgson and Kidd.

Exactly. A transcript, video clips etc. Obviously no budget for extravagances like that.

Q & A run by Rovers, a fairly big event at a normal club you’d say, yet no article or even nod that it happened on the website. Shell of a club.

Like with all the Pears back and forth, with this regime the line ‘well we couldn’t possibly find worse’… oh we can, and do, on a regular basis.

Think Sheffield is pushing it for a Roses rivalry… bit like if it was Rovers v Hull.

Suppose when nearly half the fixtures are chosen for TV every weekend stats won’t really come into it anymore.

Roverandout will die on Nations League Hill.

…only for cup ties.

Great for agents and players this extra dosh, not sure what anybody else gets out of it apart from inconvenienced.

Saw some viral social post from a Wolves fan saying relegation wouldn't be bad as you are back to 3pm KOs, aye like Wolves in the Championship would see many of them. 😀

Thought this was a forum for our opinions not John Eustace’s?

Don’t know about the tenners. But the biscuits is true as far as I’m aware, as I believe the Swansea commentator last week was saying how we are the only club they know in the league that provide no food to the media.

A club that can’t even provide a few biscuits to the media won’t exactly be setting a high bar for the scouts.

The fact the Dingles still cling on to Trelleborgs even now shows just how much the 90s destroyed their collective souls.

Modern game, presumably he’ll be getting the Juventus job next.

‘There’s this thing in football called the 18 yard box, run into it.’ ’Thank you, Keith’.

His game has gone to pot post Dingles. I doubt Eustsce will want to be starting him again any time soon. Alas his hands are tied when years of appalling recruitment up top has left us as thin as this.

I thought it was a decent game. West Brom will be up there, but we competed well. Both teams missed good chances. 0-0 on midweek at Ewood doesn’t necessarily mean ‘boring’.

They got rid of the programme because it wasn't 'profitable' - guess what some things don't actually make money at a football club, but you do them anyway to offer a service/a vibrant experience for your supporters. Reading those programme posts from Herbie in the Nostalgia Thread tells me more about what we've lost under this regime than anything else. A club that back then wanted to look after, and do all it could for its fanbase. We were in it together. This regime sees fans, a shop, a stadium as all an inconvenience.

Actually crowing about getting something on the shelves after months with zero stock (just like every season). Ridiculous set of people down there.

Of course a fan owned club can’t work at this level. It has to be the ‘benefactor’ model, obviously we don’t have that here either as the Rao’s can’t/won’t fund the club they inexplicably still own.

Of course players get rested from time to time but generally managers pick their best players - if first XIs don’t matter why does Haaland not start on the bench or Van Dyke or Palmer or closer to home Beck or Tronstadt? The only reason players don’t play for ‘tactical reasons’ is because they haven’t been good enough to make the manager pick them.
