  1. Rovers recently lost a supporter of nigh on 70 years, a dear friend, who has watched Rovers through thick and thin. Overnight journeys to the south following Rovers in the days of arduous rail travel. Long road trips, ever optimistic of a result, camaraderie, lifelong friendships, forged through pride in a club that knew its place. The halcyon days of Jack Walker, living a dream, yet always remembering the days of less fortuitous times. European adventures good and bad, winning at Wembley, semi-final heartaches. Hopes of revival after relegation, and then the realisation of the reality, of football owners purchasing a club, not understanding the weight of moral responsibility, a plaything that has now been discarded and left to it's own devices. We will carry on this responsibility, as my generation ,our children. grand- children will in turn wait to see a return to owners that value the responsibility that ownership of the Rovers deserves. Shame on you Venky's.
  2. Astronomical Summer starts 21\06/2025. Sorry to dampen your anticipated excitement.
  3. Perhaps first team minutes raise the value of the players, even though they will probably be picked off.
  4. Nicely crafted article, perfectly summarising the neglect that has characterised the Venky's reign.
  5. Dad and lad U12 Riverside £34 less than last season Senior and U12 Grandson £39 more, you couldn't make it up.
  6. Jack Walker pulled the plug on the transfer as overheard directors of Thomas's club laughing at ripping Rovers off.
  7. Riverside has more space, both with seating and area in front of the pitch to watch the warm ups. Strikers lounge OK before the match, mixing with other kids may help. Family stand has better facilities but a low down, poorer view in my opinion. Hope your son enjoys the day, took my Grandson a while to become accustomed to the experience, now a regular Season Ticket holder. COYB.
  8. The £10 and £2 additional costs are for season ticket sales only, this does not apply to individual tickets throughout season either by phone or online.
  9. Sarcasm at it's finest.
  10. Pears nearly made a mistake with the Aribo header, failed to push it over and luckily avoided it rebounding off him into the net.
  11. Did a stadium tour with my Grandson during Mowbray's last few months, the overriding impression was that all the emphasis is basically on keeping our head above water. A conversation with SW personal secretary whilst a generalisation was, as above. There was a distinct air of acceptance of our position. Fast forward to today, a truly horrendous off the field scenario, failed transfers, friction behind the scenes, a DOF living in a statistics generated Utopia, a CEO despised for a complete lack of foresight and imagination. The decks need to be cleared. fresh ideas. fresh faces, a new direction, come on Venky's. "I'll get my coat"
  12. Gilsenan, Telalovic,Markanday, Batty
  13. His comments on previews of upcoming teams, "chaos football" " shoot from distance" "play for second balls" as if this is alien to Championship football. This is exactly what is required now.
  14. New remit for recruitment team, only sign players with names that are easy to spell.
  15. The irony of the current situation is, having the best coach/manager since Hughes, all ambitions and progress have foundered on a tacky land deal to siphon off funds to Akon's HitLab project.
  16. Rovers announce new update completed, my situation is now worse than this morning. Unable to access My Rovers account, and Roverstore inaccessible, although can access Tickets online which are same account.
  17. New update still not sorted, access to tickets requires constantly signing in. My Rover account not accessible from within the Rovers website, have to log out and access from browser. Cannot manage my account which an early tweet from Rovers suggested would help. You couldn't make it up. SHAMBLES.
