Concerned as to balance of defence,Wharton the only left footed c/b, and Pickering is woeful.

Totally agree, not good for the nerves though

I sincerely hope you are right.

Parents and agents less likely to be savvy, the lure of instant riches hard to ignore, sadly.

It would appear that the Academy supply will provide players capable of Championship football. However when a calibre of player above that, ie Philips emerges, it is seemingly impossible to tie down to a professional contract. With the vast array of player scouting especially at the top level, nobody with extra talent slips under the radar. How we solve the conundrum is open to debate, expecting loyalty is a thing of the past.

Very much doubt anybody would sign him presently, too many question marks over fitness.

I.m no defender of Waggot quite the opposite, but remember the "don't devalue the product" quote from Venky's. Shortly after the takeover Madame Desai criticised John Williams for reducing ticket prices previously to generate the filling of Ewood. Therein lies the problem,the" if we are putting in £20 million a year then they are not having cheap tickets as well"

Last season there was a change in buying tickets for Juniors, due to people buying Junior tickets falsely. Can only be bought by ringing Ticket Office.

Doubt you will be told anything new if you are going to reveal all on BRFCS Messageboard. However appreciate your efforts and hope you glean something positive.

Best of luck with that one. Perhaps an insight into how shoddy a lot of departments are at Ewood.

Is this a Monty Python sketch?

Bamber Bridge

Israel played the much better football, England only came into it by using their superior fitness and strength. Too many players one dimensional, always trying to use their speed rather than using a bit of nous. Very similar to the full team, little imagination or craft.

A headhunting agency was tasked with appointing a DOF. Waggot spent so much time trying to recruit a Head Coach through traditional terms, ie advertising job and interviewing applicants, only to see them move elsewhere.I wonder why? In comes second choice GB and action within days a Head Coach. It was never intended for a DOF to be instrumental in recruitjng a Head Coach. Speak volumes about the credentials of our CEO, Now the back tracking of season ticket deadline.again. How is he still in employment?

Yes and he was told Travis is Captain. Big sulk on, not Mr Billy Bollocks anymore.

There's usually a period when tickets unavailable online, due to realigning seats due to people renewing but changing seats.

Unless I'm mistaken, the season ticket info does not relate to any savings over 23 matches. As the fixtures are released, expect another convoluted and unnecessary pricing strategy to further frustrate fans.

They are the current prices, Rovers always miss a trick by selling late and not having a really reduced Early Bird offer. This has been exacerbated by the true rise in the cost of living becoming more apparent, which was not the case 2/3 months ago.

Ticket prices if reduced at all, would be in the form of a voucher for the club shop.,Of course that would have to be for everybody who has purchased a ticket.

Waggot just toeing the line, Venky's control major decisions at Ewood. Seasonn Ticket prices based around "don't devalue the product" All goes back to Madame Desai furiously criticising John Williams for previously reducing prices to increase attendances.

On loan from Russian side FC Rostov. Due to ongoing situation re Russian sanctions, may not be possible.

Unimaginative and outdated marketing. CEO completely out of ideas and foresight. Madame Desai,was furious early in Venky's tenure when she realised how John Williams re-invigorated attendances by cutting season ticket prices.Since then the attitude has remained, as our Commercial Manager has been quoted, "don't devalue the product" How can you, on one hand stump up £20 million a season, and on the other reduce your income.

My experience of Greg Coar was he simply wasn't up to it.

J D T has no has no Championship experience which initially was a pre-requisite for the job. Broughton only experienced at Academy level. Head of Recruitment leaving. Where is the knowledge of players available going to come from? An assistant manager with Championship experience required plus a Head of Recruitment ASAP. Plus the added complication of a work permit. A lot of work to do in a short space of time.
