Season tickets 2023-24 - what could/should be offered ?
J*B replied to damo100's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
The 24 year old man tasked with convincing you, Rovers fans, to part with your hard earned money. Systematic dumbing down from top to bottom. Promoted to Head of a Department after 12 months paid employment at Bournemouth. Incredible. -
End of season report
J*B replied to Proudtobeblue&white's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Manager: B+ Players: C- Recruitment: D Negatives Only Sheff United and Burnley spent more time in the top six than Rovers, but we finished 7th. An overall negative goal difference. Burnley won the league at Ewood. Three of our better players leave on a free transfer. Previous weaknesses once again exposed - Sheff United in the Cup, Coventry in the League, PNE in the League, Luton in the League, Rotherham in the League. Failure to land a No9 (including George Hirst being named “top target”) and the LOB debacle proves to be the difference Positives Adam Wharton becomes the best player at the club. JRC goes from a waste of a wage to an all action, aggressive, risk taking right back. Hyam comes in at least as good as Lenihan. Szmodics defines a classic Rovers player for me. An interesting summer ahead, plenty to be encouraged with if you ask me but it all lies in recruitment. We need at least 6 first team players through the door. -

Funny game is football, I think Thomas really compliments JRC and it’s nice to have a player capable of a dangerous cross on the pitch. I’d much rather we replaced Hedges with a striker. -
Right folks, this is official final warning. Every post after this discussing the monarchy will result in a ban. If you want to talk about non football topics you can request access to WDWY.

If the game is picked with a certain amount of notice (don’t know the actual timelines) the club has no choice, but if it’s relatively last minute they have a say in it, yes. I really dislike the notion that Waggott is sat in his office furious at the impact on the fans after another game has been selected for Sky. His idea to build revenue is to charge the ~8,000 fans who will buy a ST regardless of price as much as possible, then sell as many games to Sky as possible. -

Sky don’t just decide who’s on, the clubs have a say. We’re willing to move kick off times, even days of games, to receive the Sky money. That’s the difference. -

I'd like to see Dack stay on reduced terms as well. The issue is I don't think JDT would play him even if he did sign. I don't want to see him sidelined being asked to come on for 15 minutes when we need a goal. -
Won't be able to afford Arma, he'll be on big wages now (even with a relegation clause) and he's more valuable than ever to Southampton now.

I’d be delighted if we got money for Dolan in the summer. He’s absolutely stupid.
-
Dolan is absolutely brainless.
-
This lot are here for the taking.
-
Absolutely has to score there. A shocking miss.
-
It’s currently 12:13 into the game and I’d take Dolan off.
-
No point keep putting crosses in. Their centre backs will win them all day. Need to play through them.

Wait, what?! I don’t think we will break 10,000 ST sales, can you explain this? Good to see the ST sale calculator return, btw. -
It’s FREE on BRFCS! Despite there being a paid for ad free version of BRFCS, it’s all on the front page 1 minute after release. Incredible! No pressure, obviously: https://brfcs.com/magazine/premium

I love Adam Wharton as much as the next person, but let’s not forget Bellingham was the best player on the pitch almost every week for Birmingham and was younger than Adam. Adam needs another successful 12 months to be a 25M footballer.

They paid for access to City’s on deadline day because it’s easier to get people to (train, plane, motorway access). Usually it’s all done at Brockhall.
-
I think they’re both good players but neither where necessarily great signings
-
I think that’s harsh on Morton. I think quality wise he’s a good loan, my issue is that he’s a very similar player to Buckley and Wharton meaning three of our four central midfielders do the same thing. We needed something different. Also think it’s harsh on Thomas, if he had a genuine striker to work with he would have had much more success. If we had a 30 year old Danny Graham he’d have scored 20 league goals this season.

…because that will mean Waggott’s ploy to charge those willing to buy a ST regardless of price top whack, then sell Sky TV rights to every game regardless of effects on the dates or times of games, doesn’t generate the same amount of income. -

See, when BRFCS decided to start making retro blue and white football shirts of no link to the Blackburn Rovers Football Club brand, we took pre-orders first to make sure there was enough demand to commit to the minimum order needed for it to be worth our while. Because we actually thought about it, rather than spending resource, money and time creating something that would have little uptake. -
