Here's the original quote, with the bit you omitted: Its never been clearer that money talks in this league, very rarely do clubs without Premiership money, parachute payments prosper, despite the best efforts of all involved. You need money to get out of this league, as the league table for past 5yrs shows, very few break the mould (Sheff Utd). I think one point we can both agree on, after that last night, or trading needs to improve significantly, its clearly not enough to turn £2m players into £20m with addons at today Blackburn Rovers.

I seem to recall those fields were originally railway sheds for storing trains overnight, full of railway sleepers and cinders as I recall. The first aerial picture you posted without the Blackburn End roof, shows no sign of railway train sheds, must have been way before 1960.

@tomphil What we thinking pal? I remember watching the fathers fight at a packed Cellar Bar in Blackburn, what an atmosphere.

Compared to £20m+ burnley have just spent yes.

We tried that, they all turned us down due to a lack of ambition. You need money to get out of this league, not a side full of academy players and cheap journeymen.

You pay peanuts you get monkeys. Venkys out.

Should have score then Dack.

Great strike, but nobody near him.

How is that not a penalty?

Here comes Dack

Brilliant Dolan, should have scored.

Outstanding header by Ayala

A Rovers goal 🤞

Brilliant from Pickering.

Managers orders.

Duffy playing?

The lads quality Jim, still learning too.

What time does it kick off your time @AllRoverAsia

Who mentioned Mowbray? I simply pointed out you need money to get out of this league.

Nobody mentioned Net spend? I said they'd spent North of £30m since 2020 - They bought Harry Arta for £6m, Samba for £2m, Jenkinson and Costa for £4m, Soh for £5m, Mckenna for £3m, Sturridge for £3m and I could go on. We've spent £1.99 in the same time period, you need money to get out of this league, you heard it here first.

They've spent North of £30m since 2020, Bournemouth, Leeds and Brentford have spent big too. The original point, money talks in this league, you bucket loads to get promoted.

Which is completely irrelevant. Success in this league is promotion, nothing else matters, unless you're Wycombe or MK Dons.

As another decent manger bites the dust, its never been clearer that money talks in this league, very rarely do clubs without Premiership money, parachute payments prosper, despite the best efforts of all involved.

I’ve been watching football for many years, I’ve never seen a more complete striker than Alan Shearer, especially when he had pace. Halland is about to take his crown, that lad has everything, what a player.
