This is the programme where the producers came on here earlier this year soliciting fan videos then appeared not to use any of them…😕

Hi Gav - I’m not looking down on the Mowbray promotion at all, if it came across that way it wasn’t intended. That season rekindled my failing relationship with Rovers specifically & football generally & I loved it, as I did 1975 & 1980. The point I was trying to make (& seemingly failing..🤦‍♂️) is that since 1995/2002 there is a whole generation for whom that promotion season is the high watermark & after enjoying a season of victories, a drab season finishing 15th is poor fare by comparison. Josh made the point higher up that we have a swathe of fans who enjoy beating Oldham in L1 more than struggling against say Middlesbrough in the Championship - I think that’s true. Watching a winning side is hugely enjoyable.

At some point…excuse me…the chickens come home to roost… Not just for Rovers, but for all the Championship clubs not in receipt of parachute payments. A look down the road at Accrington Stanley shows us all what a fully-functioning club looks like where owner, manager & fans all are on the same page. The Championship is a financial basket case where economic madness rules. I too suspect that a whole generation of fans look back on our League One sojourn as a high watermark of entertainment & enjoyment.

I remember once being faxed (ask your parents) a photo from the Telegraph 🤣

Anything & everything Lonsdale. Shabby, awful, dreadful Mike Ashley Jumble Sale tat.

FWIW This viewpoint has also been shared with me on many occasions.

Facebook, Twitter & indeed BRFCS are public forums.

I said he would *get* a new contract because Venky’s would be happy with that…

Looking forward to viewing & participating 👍🏻

Blue & white halved P11ds on sale in the RoverStore soon…

@Mike E I’ll take Sheffield Utd away next year please 👍🏻

Tricky trees previews here please...

Do you mean this ? If so I suspect it’s more to do with the resolution of the photos we are selecting TBH… We are looking into subscriptions for hi-res photo galleries but the prices quoted are prohibitive based on our current income.

Ruined by the sponsor though…

Order a bigger size…? 🤔

Am I the only one wondering how Macron are going to raise the bar next season ? 😉 If Mike Graveston reads this….inspiration attached 😉

But on the plus side…safe from relegation 🤣

Full results now available on the Home Page…. https://www.brfcs.com/magazine/articles/season-202122---what's-in-store.../40

Our “Wisdom of the Crowds” prediction results will be published later this week…😉

We miss the TV cash…

He’s in the last year of his deal (granted, this is another example of contract negotiation negligence) but given we are where we are, the need to bring cash in is glaringly obvious - especially to potential buyers. Factor in Covid depressing the whole market & the impacts are now being felt. We can’t afford to buy anyone due to FFP so I suspect loans are coming…like it or not 🤷‍♂️
