A very interesting idea. Sadly Rovers not up for them atm.

The Forum should be onto this?

So people were saying we hardly get any walk-ons. Clearly that isn't so. Something for the Club to work with supposing that they have the right mind-set.First encourage more walk-ons by lowering the price, keeping it above season ticket price. Then, hope we can convince walk-ons to see the value and point of a season ticket-----cheaper,own seat guaranteed and exciting games. 3 match tickets are a good way of getting the habit started again imo.

We are only 2 points from the play-offs though even after all those dropped points. I know that over half of the league is at that level or better so it is going to be very competitive. January looms as very important to us.Keep in touch till then, strengthen the defence and sign a Chapman-type and we would be in with a chance. I'm assuming we keep Dack of course! We are a million miles away from when Coyle left.

What was the final season ticket sales figure? Last one I heard was the 9500 quoted on here. If that is so, there were a fair number of walk-ons yesterday. Attendance was around 14400? Around 2500 Forest fans? If season ticket sales remained at around 9500 means well over 2000 walk-ons. Not gigantic admittedly but not insignificant.That would encourage me to believe we would get more if the price were lower.

Its less harmful than smoking certainly but it is not harmless. Vaping means taking in nicotine which is addictive. It increases the heart rate, in other words it makes the heart work harder, meaning potential heart problems down the track. As a way of getting off tobacco and not inhaling the likes of furniture polish and tar direct into your lungs, vaping is a better thing to do. However the vaper is still an addict. The longterm effects of vaping are still unknown for obvious reasons.

And I thought you never got personal and just commented on football!

We should have VAR. Irritating it might be but it prevents an injustice like this one.

Maybe move Lenihan to central mid-field where his fouls will be outside the penalty area. We will never drop a fit Mulgrew so pair him with Rodwell and drop Smallwood?

Quite why you always have to be the smart-arse, provocative keyboard warrior I'm not sure. I'm in favour of lowering prices to increase attendances but Oxford is not an indication of our potential fan-base. There were more there supporting Rovers than when we were in the Premiership. Even when we were winning it, in fact! It was a one-off celebration of promotion at a price which attracted people who came along for a guaranteed knees-up. It was a one-off.

You can't keep bringing up the Oxford game, it was a special occasion----a one-off. Unfortunately that applies to the ticket prices as well. Lesson is, if you want bigger crowds, lower the prices. It worked before.

Surely Chaddy has Roversfan99 on ignore? Everybody else is on his list. Obviously can't resist a peek! -----clear case of discrimination if you ask me.

Under Coyle we used to say it was because we were so unfit, we can hardly use that one now! I agree with those who think we don't keep the ball long enough, opposition can't score without it. That's a skill and organisation issue. You could throw confidence in there too, we do seem to panic.

Not sure about "the new Tugay" but that little cameo was very impressive. We could do with more of that!

Was just about to write this! Lets hope there's no other Crouches about!

HA! Obviously it hasn't but the manager's job includes contingency plans for when it does. We lack adequate cover in key areas whereas we are overflowing with mid-fielders. If we can get through OK till January, well and good but.........

We brought in 7(?) players in the transfer window but the areas of weakness which we all identified were not addressed. We didn't get a winger in but fair enough we did make an attempt for Chapman, we didn't buy a centre-back which is really coming back to haunt us with Mulgrew's injury, and we are still totally reliant on a 33 year old staying fit up-front. We can't rely on Rodwell coming good ,Armstrong is not good enough at this level and Brereton is "one for the future" the problem being that we are playing now. We didn't sign a keeper to compete with Raya and we just pray Raya stays fit. Looking back we didn't target the key areas of need.

Crouch coming on was what unnerved our defence. I think they knew he'd do to them what he's done to so many defences over so many years. What a great character he is. When Raya made that double save from him, Crouch bent down to pat Raya on the shoulder.Terrific gesture he didn't have to make. Has a good line in self-deprecation too. When asked what he'd have been if he hadn't been a professional footballer his reply was----- a virgin.

Sorry if its been mentioned but cracking goal from McGinn at the weekend.

Love that mid-field 4, this could be just the right game to try it. Up-front's a worry though. Armstrong doesn't look the same player in this division and Brereton so far doesn't look any sort of player at all. Emphasises----hope to be wrong!!

We never lost to Chelsea in the Premier League till Abramovitch catapulted them into the financial stratosphere!

Good job we kept Graham eh Chaddy?

We were at panic-stations in defence the last few minutes. The lack of experience back there is telling. Needed an old head at centre-back but no Charlie sadly. Maybe this played a role in Rodwell's signing?

Always pulled in 2 directions after a result like this! Overjoyed at the win of course but worried about how such a late collapse could affect future games. An opposition manager 2-0 down will tell his players " put the pressure on and they'll crumble" (unless they're Derby of course). Looks like Reed will become a first team fixture? Still, would have taken a draw before the game so got to be chuffed.

Looks like the bloke from Dad's Army there!
