  1. It used to be a positive way to describe a club like ours. At some stage it changed to being used pejoratively.
  2. I’ve voted no, not because of the price but for the reasons I’ve set out in the other thread
  3. The Human League - Don’t You Want Me

  5. I expect you’re looking forward to sharing the news with your dad.
  6. I imagine even the ‘oldies’ have more than just Rovers in their lives. 😀
  7. The problem with this is the notice given to move games for tv - hopefully this will improve when the new Sky deal kicks in.
  8. ‘whether it’s one match, or every match - we have a ticket option that’s right for you’ Well ‘we don’t’ - but with a bit of thought ‘we could’
  9. If he wants to leave that’s different - but, imo, he’d need replacing with a new number 1.
  10. I’ve looked up that 22-23 prices (for where I’d sit) were £25 for mid week games (of which there were 4 scheduled when the prices were announced) If my adding up is right, we ended up having 10 weekday matches, 3 of which were cat A so £35. By sheer coincidence, attending all these matches (in JWC) would have cost me exactly the same (£280) with or without your suggestion. But like I said, my personal decision wouldn’t be based on price (although value would be a consideration) - and I’d consider your suggestion to be ‘of value’ for the following reasons: I may ‘win’ or I may ‘lose’ on price, but I think this would be negligible in either direction (this is clearly dependent on how many matches get moved to the week) I am out of the habit (in a big way) of going to matches - joining such a scheme would ‘encourage’ me to get back into attending on a ‘somewhat’ regular basis. Having said all that, you’d probably have been happy with a yes or a no 😁.
  11. Peter, Paul And Mary - Puff The Magic Dragon
  12. ‘Back in the day’ when I knew I’d miss 3-4 games a season, I’d just factor this into whether the price was a good one (for me) Now that it’s a certainty I’d miss all the Saturday matches, the price would have to be very low (probably unfeasibly so) for me to consider this to be of value. I guess there could be a price where I’d at least ‘look into’ the cost (and time involved) in getting to Blackburn by train (would also involve a bus!) - but I’m not sure what this would be. I imagine for most fans price is by far the most important factor, and for many it will be the only factor - like I said I know I’m in a fortunate position regarding the ability to pay.
  13. This Kaminski video is a couple of years old but given a Pears one has been posted, I thought I post this one too:
  14. If I was to buy a ticket it would be in the Jack Walker central - which is currently £529 (I don’t know what the ‘early bird’ price was) That’s £23 a match, which to be honest, I’d probably pay - but I’m in the fortunate position of being able to afford to do so. My ‘problem’ is I’m not local and we only have one car, which my wife needs for work on Saturdays. I think I’m a ‘case in point’ as to why flexibility can be as important as price -if they offered a mid - week only season ticket, I’d probably be interested (at the same price per match as a full season ticket) Clearly they’d have to make an ‘educated guess’ as to how many games would be mid week, I don’t see this as an ‘insurmountable problem’.
  15. I’d be interested in SW’s answer to this: If the club’s data shows decreasing ticket prices doesn’t increase ticket sales, why did they start doing offers and bundles towards the end of the season…
  16. Not much though (I thought of it 😁) - but I take your point regarding SW…
  17. Personally I think he’s stupid and he thinks the fanbase is stupid.
