January 2018 was the last time Jordan Rhodes scored.

He does. As do numerous other people.

What’s he done wrong anyway?

I thought it was Stuart who had a beef with Jim, apologies.

How strange that you've brought this up this week. I was saying to my mate on the way to the match that I have a Mandela Effect memory of seeing Abel Xavier playing for us. He has is too and wouldn't believe me that he never played for us.

Diouffy?

Ian I think you've upset Stuart with this!

Hull could go above us tonight if they manage a draw or win at Leeds.

Millwall could go above us if they manage to beat Brizzle City by two goals or more.

Interestingly, if Millwall win 2-0 tonight, that would put them on the same points as us, same goal-difference, and same number of goals scored and conceded. Is there another level of priority to decide who is above who? Or do they just say "well you're joint xth"? Not that it matters much, but just curious if they bother with a further level of priority if it's not a critical league position.

The club that is located further north goes above. 

Wow RIP time does move quickly.

A lot of people in Glasgow swear they saw Graeme Souness on TV after Rovers played Celtic up here making the "Men against Bhoys" comment...........

 

The number of arguments I've had with taxi drivers about that one.

 

(It was Gary Flitcroft)

That’s what you get for drinking whiskey for breakfast. 

I see what you mean but if you wanted to give the away club 3500 then you’d open upper and lower concourses both of which have fixed barriers and then allowing for 500 seats  segregation there you have your 3500.

The Huddersfield away end has it right. 
It holds about 4,000. 2500 or so for away fans, leaving around 1000- 1200 for home fans after segregation.

Hudds home section is therefore about half the size of the old DEnd home section and could easily be replicated.

Ignore the metal barrier in the middle of the stand, get one of those moveable segregation gates in the concourse and give away fans, say 3,500 lower tier seats (they can have extra upper tier seats, if needed). Then the segregation netting and leave 800-1000 seats for home fans. I’m in no doubt that we could fill 800 or so seats if we promote it as a singing section, help with flags and banners etc.
 

The atmosphere at Ewood would be immeasurably improved.

There are already big hefty metal barriers on the concourse pal. That stand was designed to be able to be split between home and away fans.

I was thinking along the same lines. 

Why doesn't the club introduce cheap prices in the 'Fanzone' area.

£2 a pint (they get it for around a £1 so will still be making a profit and will make more profit because of more sales). 

I know that it will effect the few local pubs still going around the area but so that goes. 

 

(and while i'm at it... reopen the Darwen End for home fans. Stop employing private security firms for a non-existent threat (which added £££ to the cost of policing a home game). The atmosphere has gone down since this cost cutting measure). 

I wish.

You might have 1200 Wigan fans in one side and 400 home fans in the other under the old system in the DE BUT you'd have an actual bit of atmosphere at that end. Plus looking better on the TV, some lads in hoods  though might flick the vs at each other and shout over a fence, row of netted off seats and a few stewards !

Can't have that at Ewood in 2019, call the robocops and shut the ground !!!

 

Brilliant atmosphere at times.
