You tend to hear the odd person moaning but that's it. I've heard people shouted insulting things towards players and their wives. but you will always get that a small minority saying this

I don't see that at all happening or even a chance. Hull have been available to buy now for a number of seasons and still no buyer For me, the club have done some things trying to get fans back or attract new ones but there is no one answer to this problem or even a couple of solutions as people have different issues. I know a diehard Rovers fan who would like to attend every home game with his son but he sadly cant cos of 3 different problems these being his work pattern, His missus having to work 1 in 3 Saturday, 2 other kids to look after who aren't interested in football and have other activities on Saturday these do. So How can Rovers solved this problem and Im sure many other Rovers fans and families have this of problem to deal with

Summer Transfer Window 2019
chaddyrovers replied to Neal's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
which papers? -
it was great to see Graham doing that at half time. It would have made those kids days. Yes the players are very well supported by the vast majority of fans in the ground.
-
Its a good idea Stuart tbh. I wouldn't have Home and away fans in both stands tbh. Away fans only in Darwen end and Home seating and Disabled fans in Riverside stand isn't the plan to have a hotel in the riverside stand?

where are you getting another 6500 season ticket holders from? Have we ever 16k season ticket holders in the championship? we couldn't even attract new owners in our PL days so how realistic it to expect the club to a attractive option considering the debt that needs covering every season for the playing squad, academy to run? Just imagine the playing squad if the club had to be run a balance budget and no debt. Football is a business not just a football club So Stuart, instead of blaming fans why don't you try to set a meeting up with Waggott to discuss this issue? Have you done this? They are so many different factors in people who were season ticket holders in the past who don't attend that it is going to be hard to attract these back to being a ST Holder again. The reasons are different working patterns, Family commitment, other sporting interest like Golf, Horse Racing, Cricket now, lost interest in football, lack of Premier League football, etc and etc. wasn't the Walker family more interest in their airline Fly Be? I find your post bizarre tbh. You are very quickly to stick up for non attending fans but you don't answer what will get them back? Just have a go at a poster who makes good points tbh

Agree on Travis but Buckley played in his place. Probably thinking we see much of the ball. How does it undermines the manager? Its shows players understand the game and thinking of the game instead of relying on the manager to do all the thinking. Reaction? You mean the change of formation to 3 at the back The 1st half display defensively was good but we didnt get our attacking play going. 2nd half we play and created chances after chances. Bennett, Armstrong, Rothwell had great chances. We are building from.the back. Solid defence 4 clean sheets. And still more to come attacking wise but we havent peak yet
-
I think Buttler is better player for me. Foakes has done nothing this season. Maybe play Crawley at 3. So a top 7 of this Burns Denly Crawley Root Stokes Pope Buttler. What do you think? I dont see any players who are natural number 3. Dont see Another Trott out there. Looking like Sliverwood will be next England coach with Collingwood, Thorpe and Trescothick as assistant coach. What you think of that? I would like Alec Stewart as next England coach but not sure he wants to tour around the world
-
I would go 3 at the back against Reading. Reading play 3-5-2 aswell.
-
Sibley has 1000 runs this season at average 55 4 days cricket whilst Crawley has 801 at 38. We need to find a number 3 from somewhere. Could Ben Stokes do that job? Root should go back to 4 for me Pope should come in for Bairstow for me. And bat 6.

Start of the season
chaddyrovers replied to Rochdale_rover's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Top 6 by end of the season..dont get owt for being there now. 3 points off top 6 now after 7 games Villa were 13th in Feb/March time ending up in 5th spot. -
We created chances playing it today including chance for Armstrong who should have scored. Thanks.
-
11 goals scored between Armstrong(9), Brereton and Gallagher 1 each. Main striker not as wide player. Armstrong should have scored.

I asked a simple and basic question? Thats all. No need to get knickers in twist Darren

Im allowed my opinion. Didnt I say balance of the team wasnt right? Why should the split striker experiment be abandoned if it the best thing for team overall and get us points? We got plenty of joy with it today. How many times of those 25 games has he play up front?.how many assists in that time?
-
Very good win against a team I thought would play more direct than they did and only played 1 up front. I thought the back 3 worked fine defensively but limited us too much in the attacking sense. They have worked on this back 3 for nearly 2 weeks as Mowbray said post match. Second half We started better when Gallagher came on. We became more fluid and more movement as the half went on. We could have get 4 or 5 today. Very happy with 3 points and clean sheet. Dack was very good. Back 5/4 played very well and Williams my man of the match. Different player at centre back. Thought Armtrong was good second half and Rothwell looked lively when he came on. Downing is proving many people wrong who wrote him of when he signed here. Walton impressing again with Shot saves, communication and claiming crosses/catching high balls and command pf area One Negative for me, is that we missed Travis today for me. on Mowbray formations, we started 5-3-2 with Johnson sitting in front of the back 4 and Downing and Buckley pushing on. second half we started in 5-2-3 formation with Gallagher right, Dack centre and Armstrong wide left. Thought we looked better attacking wise. Then when he took Tosin of for Rothwell we switched to 4-2-3-1 with Back 4 of Bennett, Lenihan, Williams, Cunningham; Downing,. Johnson; Armstrong Dack Rothwell; Gallagher
-
I would drop Bairstow for Pope coming in at 6. Buttler to keep wicket. Root should go back to 4. Either Crawley or Sibley to come in at 3.

Chapman is playing for the under 23's on Momday

Being played at The Oval. You mean Shaun Marsh? Archer and Curran bowled very well today. Have you seem Zac Crawley or Dominic Sibley play? Good enough for test cricket? Where do you think Lancashire need to improve squad wise for next season?

I deffo wouldnt go Pubs to watch footy during the week. Very rarely go to pubs these days now being a family man. Also my work pattern wouldnt allow me to. Like I said I dont miss watching the CL games or even European football now.. -

Not what the player earns matter but how much Uefa earned through tv rights and they change the competition for the fear that the big European clubs would join a new super Euro league. I dont watch any of UEFA Cup competitions anymore. Just dont have interest anymore -

They are in the competition cos of money and UEFA Fear for big European clubs forming a new Euro super league. That the real issue not over quality.. I havent see any CL football during the week for around 3 or 4 years now. What channel it is on as no barring on me watching it. It could be on itv or BBC and I still wouldnt watch it. I have no passion or desire to watch it anymore. You are correct I dont have BT Sport and I wouldnt pay for it. But neither do you so dont get on your high horse
