I think the ticket prices are reasonable and standard for the area in terms of championship clubs in our local area. Teams are Bolton, Wigan and Preston. I think a surcharge doesn't affect much tbh. but we need figures to sort this out. 2 kick off times have been change and that's it. hardly a big thing. I would say your biggest gripe is you being moved from the Darwen end for away fans. I will email over my suggestions to him tonight.

Thanks @Red for the Brereton info. But I did say he is better with the ball into feet and runs the channels. I think 7 million pounds is a bargain as long as Mowbray can get the best out of him. For me, he is lacking match fitness and confidence.

Sky wont be going anywhere for many years. I'm watching England right now on Sky. Without Sky I wouldn't get to watch all the football I can watch plus my cricket which I will be up at 4.30am to watch it.

I have read the Waggott's article a couple of times now plus today articles about fans opinions who go and don't go. Price is a problem but so is that fact that people who haven't been for a few years and now have other interest, the dates and times of games plus Sky having games that are non 3 pm kick-offs and quite detail highlights. It was mention by one fan who mention having a season ticket for weekend games cos he couldn't get to midweek games due to work commitments. Some fans will be working shift work so unable to get to get midweek games. I can understand Waggott's point about the price. I think its a combination of number of factors and I feel now we need to start targeting families with Kids under 11 and Primary schools. Get Children involved and at games regular. I remember back when I was in Primary School that we went the Blackburn Rovers indoor football school before the game for a few games and then go game. We did this a couple of times and I really enjoyed it. Maybe its time we did cheap Kids tickets with an adult price. Waggott missed a big chance when season ticket should have been on sale before the Oxford game. But they weren't. I would love to see the figures for ticket sales after the 12pm deadline where there is a surchange in place. It was dead busy before the Forest game when I walk past at 2pm. I feel we shouldn't be comparing to the 2000/01 season as it 17 years ago. I would look at the figures when Bowyer was here and his second season. And compare those figures instead

Brentford sell at least 2 key player every season. Egan left for Sheffield United. Woods for Stoke. Was target the last 2 season top 6? I dont know. I think I change was likely after a takeover. Bruce and fans relationship had hit rock bottom. Maybe Bruce should have walk away last summer. He recently looked very tired and like he had loads on his mind. He need a break from football till next summer. Smith plays good football and Villa are capable of playing good football. Will be interest to see how it done. His number 2 at Brentford is joining him at Villa.. Looks like Brentford 1st team coach Franks will get the head coach job. I wonder if he will promote a young defender from under 23's.

Im said the same previously.

Good appointment by Villa. Smith is a good coach and will play the way some Villa want. Surprise by his number 2 choice but I would suspect that his Brentford number 2 O'Kelly will join him there. I said Villa would go down this director of football/head coach structure but I thought they would have for someone like Steve Walsh. Who next for Brentford? Wouldnt surprise if they appoint first team coach Franks as head coach for the season. Or appoint someone like Heckingbottom who would fit this head coach role. Wouldnt be surprise if Smith go back for Maupay from Brentford. Will Brentford make top 2/6? All down to next appointment. Will Villa make top 6? Good chance.

Really poor deal.. The Walker family didnt need to sell but they didnt listen to the right people. I dont understand why Battersby and Currie didnt buy the club then.

Didnt the Walker family want rid asap that why so cheap.price?

I still reckon Brentford's Dean Smith will get the Villa job

Rovers open talks with Mulgrew and Evans https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/16971551.rovers-open-contract-talks-with-mulgrew-and-evans/?ref=mac

Look like Henry wont be the Villa boss now he off possibly to Monaco.

I would give Mowbray a new 3 to 4 years contract. He deserved for me. We are a different club since he came in. Breath of fresh air with open and honest interviews. And results have been good so far in Championship IMO.

Mowbray set for a new contract https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/16969080.rovers-plan-contract-talks-with-boss-tony-mowbray/?ref=mac

Maybe you could do unreserved seating or have to pick up a ticket from club shop/ticket office before the game you want to attend. Just a thought.

Agree on last point. Maybe the numbers for the Forest game was so high due to it being paid day that previous week. Surely that another thing the club could take into account. You pick tickets from side of club shop for matches whilst those buying ticket do so from the Ticket office located in the Blackburn End. If you want unreserved seating then the Riverside stand could be this. But whatever stand you chose, you will upset some people. I wouldnt want to lose my seat as its right behind the goal at the Blackburn End. Its a great view.

Ive seen Rodgers and Martinez linked with the Villa job

I dont believe the subcharge deter many fans from attending. See the quenes at the Forest game. But not every fan cant go to every game so they pick and choose. I think Rovers could have offer a 10 game season ticket where they can choose their games. Would suit someone on shift work. Ticket only admission? Yes that is right. So every fan has a seat and know where they sit. I wouldnt want someone sat in my seat after Ive been there for last 4 or 5 years. Its time Rovers fans came out and back the team. Season ticket prices are reasonable imo but accept they could have been cheaper for fans if they have been on sale before Oxford game. Maybe they could have done a price for students at university and college. Or for new season ticket holders could have discount on the new shirt.

Guess we will see

Well according to Sky Sports website the game isnt on Red button but shows the Swansea game tho.

Is on Sky red button?

Rothwell would start the next game for me. One of best player yesterday in the 1st 30 minutes. And take the corners. Not thought about Leeds game as it nearly 2 weeks to go. The only way the midfield will gel is by playing every week together

Our corners havent be good enough all season whether it been Dack, Smallwood, Reed, Rothwell, Mugrew, etc. I would keep Rothwell/Mulgrew on there and work on them more..

The player to whipped them is Mulgrew who I let take them from the right and Rothwell from left. I want Dack in the box. Next to the keeper Dack corners are poor.

Dack corners arent any better tbh. If Rothwell stays in the team then I would him on them. He has the techique tbh
