  1. Blackburn Youth Zone are officially behind this and based on donations so far we’re expecting to be able to cover tickets, travel and expenses for around 40 children who otherwise wouldn’t be able to access games at Ewood. If you’d like to donate send myself or Duncan a message.
  2. @StubbsUK should be able to give context but it’s odd to me that everyone else can see something you can’t… that would leave me to believe it’s at your end rather than ours.
  3. Based on the statement to Andy Bayes, I don't think they can rebuff the story. Their quote is 'fully expect him to be at Brockhall tomorrow" - that means they've not had anything official through to say that he won't be, not that they can guarantee it. I can guarantee members of my staff will be at work tomorrow because I have no reason to doubt it. They do.
  4. Moved to ICBINF as the discussion isn’t relevant to Rovers specifically. Reminder to all posters that sexism will result in a permanent ban.
  5. This is fake news. Read more here: https://www.sportsmanor.com/soccer-news-the-truth-behind-us-womens-teams-12-0-defeat-to-wrexham-red-dragons/
  6. We’re up to £400 just from this post, which will see tens of local families who normally wouldn’t get the opportunity to get down to Ewood, have something to eat and drink and enjoy the post match entertainment. Thank you very much for all of the messages and support.
  7. Bollocks to it, someone send me a stream!!
  8. This is a real moment of opportunity which - if circumstances allow - I encourage all fans to get behind. We’ve moaned for years now about a distinct lack of effort being shown by the senior management, we’ve looked googly-eyed at Accy and Stockport who have created a day-out culture towards matchday. If this is attended by 2,000 people and nobody uses/gets involved in the pre/post match activities that The Trust, BRFCS, 4,000 Holes and RoversChat are putting time and resource into for free, Rovers will use it as evidence to show that “we’ve done all we can”. The Fans Forum will be told for years that when they allowed fan involvement there was no economic benefit and no additional enjoyment for fans. If it’s attended by 10,000 people, who enjoy, get involved with and spend outside the ground they’ll see what The Trust and BRFCS and others have said for years now. There is something special about Blackburn Rovers Football Club and given an opportunity fans will come back. If you’re in a position where distance makes attending impossible, rather than money, buy someone local you know that wouldn’t usually go a ticket. If you'd like to donate tickets reach out to BRFCS / The Trust and we’ll help find local people that would appreciate the tickets. We (BRFCS) can only show the financial and time commitment that we are doing once, so we want to make sure we best utilise the opportunity. If you’ve got a skill (especially photographers, videographers, content creators, graphic designer, printers) than could help please get in touch.
  9. Skous18 isn't banned and I can't see any restrictions on your IP... are you sure its not your side? What happens if you use private browsing?
  10. They had their Russian Oligarch funding removed when the war broke out, spent a fortune whilst they had investment which has resulted in very little resale value but high contracts and have hundreds of millions of investment into their new stadium.
  11. Will Sigurdsson and Ennis score / assist 22 goals between them? My money would be on no - mostly because I’m hoping we sign a No9 and Ennis is second choice.
  12. If I have a pound to bet, I'd be comfortable putting it on Sigurdsson not scoring more than BBD did last season. 15 goals (BBD = 14 G, 4A) in his first season is a big ask.
  13. I used to work in City Centre pre-COVID and I've never seen a homeless problem like in Leeds. It needs (needed) urgently addressing. Although any more discussion should probably move to WDWY!
  14. Right now we won’t score anywhere near enough goals to be a threat to the top six. More to follow.
  15. Fantastic work @goozburger - thanks for your efforts. A minimum of 8,659 STs sold.
  16. Selling out of the new kit online within 15-minutes is classic Rovers.
  17. I offered - again - free access to our studio in Manchester and film facilities. Didn’t hear any back. Although last year they used Unmarked Agency, who are good, so they might have done it with them again.
  18. Agree entirely apart from the second to Kean line. We've had some serious shite including Owen fucking Coyle that are way higher than Mowbray on my disliked list.
  19. Same thing, each share is £1
  20. I don’t think it auto renews, only the monthly does?
  21. If you — or perhaps someone you know — can recommend any other options I’d be happy to look into them @Eddie .
  22. If you screenshot any that are overly intrusive we can block them for you (if we agree), this shouldn’t be the case. We already block a lot of ads, including the ‘big’ money which is in gambling, crypto and vaping ads. So if anyone sees any of these especially please send them in either on PM to myself or email to admin@brfcs.com. The company that hosts the ads are always on at us to have more - full screen ones, ones that move. We tell them we don’t want them either. We are actively trying to not be dickheads with the advertising. The reality is the site I took over in 2017 would have gone under in 2020 if we hadn’t been proactive and put proper advertising in. The IT costs have spiralled and need to be paid for somehow.
