Is this nonsense 5 subs rule for the championship as well?

No issue with that but just saying it doesn’t need to be as long as normal

I’m with you there Rev It feels like people who need to ask for refunds are going be feel a level of shame in doing so, it should be no questions asked A holiday we had was cancelled, travel republic sent an email with a form saying the default is a credit note but if we prefer a refund then tick this box, that was it and that’s all that needed to be done here Any pre season should be reduced, they’ve had a long break now so they don’t need as long as normal after 9 games

I don’t see a way they can be as motivated as normal, no matter what in an empty stadium it’s going to feel like a friendly in their mind somewhere especially the first game or two

Cheers so there is a material difference based on that

I’d be interested to see how we did in games with Bell compared to Cunningham Genuinely no idea how the stats would look

I’m in the minority but I rate Bell, not in Nyambe’s league but a decent enough full back for now and would keep him as a squad player Makes the odd mistake but few as bad as Cunningham against West Brom earlier in the season.

I’ve nothing to get over, just think it’s poor to not at least address it properly K-Hod - I don’t think you can cast I follow, I’ll probably use my code on the MacBook then hopefully use over Apple TV if it’s an option but not expecting to be able to

A second update and still no refund option

I can’t remember our best team Can someone remind me what I usually moan about it’s been a while

I went past Ewood around 3pm on Saturday and it occurred to me how bizarre it is that next week there will be a league game taking place with nobody around. Imagine a few fans will head down to their teams grounds on match days, there’s no chance scousers will stay away from their title* celebrations

Got an email to say they wanted to clarify the position based on queries, no new info though and the FAQ has a question around people without internet but it doesn’t really answer it We understand that this solution will not be ideal for all supporters’ circumstances and appreciate your patience at this time. This has been an unprecedented and difficult challenge to balance the survival of the club and ensuring our supporters receive the best value and experience possible in the circumstances.

Probably a good thing we got put through the ringer, the goals displayed some shocking defending and goalkeeping!

Legally they will have to provide a refund I’m sure, it’s certainly not advertised though

It’s like a reverse Statler and Waldorf! This is awful Well it isn’t so bad what else could they do? Yeah this is ok I LOVE IT!

I should preface this by saying I don’t have a huge vested interest as my dad bought mine and my sons season tickets this year: Having said that I think there should have been more options set out to be accessible to people and less guilt for those needing or simply preferring a refund I would gather most of the games will end up on the red button as a lot won’t be Saturday 3pm games so would have access to those anyway if you have sky. Plus you may not be able to watch all the games. Then consider that in some households there will be 4-5 season ticket holders, that partial refund and the money already paid to the club isn’t insignificant to them and they are paying far more for the privilege of having the same stream as someone with a single season ticket. If I was in that scenario I would think it doesn’t seem quite fair

Look at this puppy. This isn’t a regular puppy, this is Steve Waggott’s puppy. If refunds are paid out then a decision will have to be made to either keep the lights on at the club or feed the puppy. Look at the Puppy. Make the right choice! Ps the puppy is called Tugay Kermidoglu

Funnily enough Lambert and Ipswich aren’t too happy with the decision Oh well

shame for Bolton I think they would have survived without this, they were just about to go on a huge win streak. Also gutted for Sunderland. Sad times...... Joking aside it seems amazingly folly, imagine they did the same in the Championship, we would have missed the play offs by one win, sure we would have approach that last game slightly differently knowing it was last chance. Not saying there was a better way but it would still be a tough one to take

I know nothing about him other than he’s second choice at Rangers in the pub league but I see Wes Foderingham is out of contract Sure I recall us being linked with him a year ago will be interesting to see if we go back in as back up / competition

Interesting that our mates down the road had 3 options, use the credit to next season, get a partial refund or donate the money to the club to be used for the youth team Personally think it’s a disgrace that a premier league club could even consider asking fans to do that, then again this is the club that wanted free labour from their fans instead of paying stewards

It’s an interesting one with Bennett testing positive, at the start of lockdown it would have resulted in a fair few people self isolating but now it seems only those with a positive test need to Say it did spread through 4-5 squad members who then all need to isolate and miss training it seems the playing field isn’t level anymore. The season either way will have an asterisk next to it however it plays out because some teams have been granted by chance an unfair advantage, some will finish the season avoiding some awkward away fixtures whilst some will have played more home games than away and vice versa

I don’t believe this 88 seconds thing to be accurate, how can it be? Lets take Bradley Dack as an example, he gets man marked in most games, now imagine a game has 3 corners for Rovers at a low estimate, each one probably takes 30 seconds where there will be 15-18 men in the box standing their ground then jostling for position; then there’s a man on him every goal kick, throw in and free kick. 88 seconds my ass!

Warmed to Deeney when he was asked about if he felt pressure taking a penalty, he responded that when he was young his mum was a single parent working 2 jobs to put food on the table, not a well payed footballer kicking a ball! His attitude is spot on, football isn’t as important as sometimes made out, no matter how much people may like the Shankly quote

It’s because Vince McMahon is a madman, I actually quite like that they’ve embraced it and gone all out crazy with some of the stuff they’ve done Lets do that with the footy, instead of games in stadiums have them in random places, down Pleasy, that shitty pitch up in the woods maybe or up at Blacksnape
