  1. It's always been around in football that kind of thing to varying degrees i remember it being the case when Souness was here. Now if we consider what a mess it was here from the moment Kean and co took over it's easy to assume the problems were 5 times what they might be at the normal clubs.
  2. It should be quite simple and straightforwards, being an evening game have a cut off point of 12.30. Home team should be informed by then and if it gets pulled later they should be compensated. Hit people in the pocket and they'll pull their fingers out.
  3. He's the only one talking any sense on this nonsense. Will anybody listen ? Unlikely, when has football ever been run competently.
  4. It would go some way to explaining the huge upturn in form and effort suddenly this season. The players are like men possessed and even the manager and coaching staff look like they have blood pumping through their veins again. Show me the moneeee !
  5. TM loves a squaddie and likes to rotate and fit them in so i'd prefer not to see any pressure to do that. If it were me i'd be rooting around for another young fit game hungry center half. One who compliments what we have and who is chomping at the bit, one of the reasons we are so much better this season is we've moved away from these types cluttering up the squad.
  6. Avoid. We aren't in a situation we need to take gambles on these types it makes 100% far more sense to keep what we have instead.
  7. I'm thinking this might be an awkward game and i hope the Hull debacle hasn't dented the momentum. It's almost like it was done on purpose. Rovers 1 Barnsley 1
  8. Great idea if true i'm sure we've said before why don't such wealthy owners offer massive incentives to reach the promised land. Pity it's banded about though it often tends to fire up opposition as well to get stuck in.
  9. If it was a pitch inspection issue arising from doubts days before there'd be an inspection and decision before the visiting fans coaches left. At least i think that used to be the case so here with all the doubts and issues involved in Covid and the fact they'd already lost a few people, there was NO excuse to leave it late. Other than they didn't really give a toss but best thing here is when it's rearranged we rock up and hammer them.
  10. EFL - 'What's going on here then Hull ?' Hull City - We might have pushed the very boundary's to snapping point but we were following your protocol to the letter ! EFL - Aye ok, nothing to see here move along Blackburn please. Hull & EFL - 'It's all the fault of a sinister variant and the evil walking dead of the unvaxed/unboosted they are the real culprits'.
  11. Inevitable. Still at least Hull sold plenty tickets....
  12. We'd likely be playing a different way if AA was still here in order to be tailored more to his liking. Probably after loaning in another defensive mid or two. Nothing against Armstrong but on that score i'm glad hes gone.
  13. Yeah but if you're a tax dodger who went to Eaton you'd be allowed to chuck enough roll to wipe every arse on earth !
  14. He definitely lost the plot on and off the park for a couple of years. Now he's doing more logical stuff with the team his spiel makes a bit more sense again. He's always been one to waffle though but now he sounds a bit more like the TM of old, not the hybrid excuse making imposter.
  15. Come on they'd be filming, investigating and trying to lock up people chucking bog rolls and shredded newspaper these days. Maybe get away with a few nice balloons, only partially inflated of course though.
  16. I think a severe warning would suffice first time around although we don't know if they've been in bother before. Maybe a word to some of the useless stewards wouldn't go amiss either seeing as their heavy handed treatment of kids on the pitch nearly caused a riot.
  17. This is where i'm at with it as lets not forget it took that shambles at home to Fulham for him to finally wise up a bit. What he has done withe team since then is superb and the players also have to be taking the credit in equal measure.
  18. I'm delighted with the turnaround and current form but i'm wise enough to know it wasn't some grand plan. We are over achieving at the min and at some point it'll probably balance out a bit. He's probably never had a team like this though so lets see how he handles the next few months. Hes got to keep the fire under them and let them do what they do imo, top 6 finish is a real possibility. Finishing 10th/12th is more his territory so this is probably his biggest test yet at Ewood.
  19. It it does get pulled it'll probably be after ticket sales have finished tomorrow. Hull won't want to lose the tv revenue from this so next best thing is sell as many tickets as possible and give the game every chance to go ahead. Christmas day or boxing day morning would be my prediction for it to be pulled, i reckon it will be.
  20. Around the 2 thousand mark was the sensible figure mentioned early Tuesday.
  21. Let the economy run up too Christmas hols then put the brakes on in the early new year a tradition 'quiet' time for a lot of things. Take the brakes off again later and claim credit for the booming. All pre planned this and more to it than just covid.
  22. We've always said Mowbray is a guy who never seems to learn and is too stuborn with his over cooking/rotating methods. There are signs this season he finally has but those second half season stats follow him around and cannot all be coincidence or bad luck. Lets us pray he keeps fanning the flames under this team and doesn't revert to the over cautious stuff that seems more natural to him. This side will fall off its bike occasionally as other teams now get prepared for us but hes got to let it regroup and get back on it when it does. So do the fans.
  23. The biggest call Mowbray has to make so far this season is being bold enough to stick with this team and not looking to chuck Gallagher back in the starting line up. I'm not a hater of his but the side for the first time has real balance to it that it doesn't when he plays from the off. Even when he's playing well but to me the way he's best used now is a late sub.
  24. A couple of big signing on fees allegedly kept the weekly wages more in line.
  25. A lot on here would've snatched their hands off at 3 million never mind 5. Just goes to show what has been said all along, get a system to suit what you have instead of trying to make them do something that they struggle with.
