Yet you say your reason to renew is to support the 11 on the pitch. Did they know you had switched on ?

The only problem would be Mowbray would say, Messi I want you to play as a target man because of your height. You other two play on the wings.

Should find out Thursday if Rovers will have any tickets, but there is no restrictions on people getting tickets from Fylde. I don't know about pay on the day. If you are coming from Blackburn get a ticket from Fylde. Return train to Wesham, 10 minute walk to the Lane ends pub, 10 mins walk to the ground after a few beers. Repeat on return journey.

Who's going to this game. I suggest a meeting in the Lane Ends pub in Wesham for pre match drinks.

Since 1968 I have not seen a shit season

I don't know what this means.

Perhaps Mowbray will really do something out of charracter and play Pike, a right-back if required.

To me it is quite simple. We cannot afford to buy or loan anyone of the required standard, so we have to use what we already have. It may or may not be successful, but it is our only option. Nothing in football is guaranteed ask the French.

The centre-back situation maybe risky, but it might be a risk we have to take. I would say let's go with what we have got. If it goes wrong ,lets cross that bridge when we come to it.

You forgot to add. As long as it's cheap

I'm about 4 miles away.

I think if the council decide that there is to be no away fans, all that will happen is that the Rovers will not get any tickets to sell. It won't stop anyone buying a ticket from AFC Fylde. The West strand will be the one nearest Mowbray, to give him pelters.

I would like us to sign another quality left-back, then they could challenge each other to prove who has the shirt and who is the squad player.

I am hoping for a season were we lose more players through suspensions, than injuries. Lets scare teams.

Not many of them will be missed.

AFC Fylde saying that tickets for our friendly will go on sale on Thursday, £10-standing,£12-seated. Lancs council to decide if away fans are allowed. If away fans are allowed, they allocate 240 standing places.

If he does I will plait sawdust.

But what about your English.

Is there any update on if we are allowed to go to the Fylde friendly ?

Perhaps even the club realise that with Mowbray still in charge, season ticket sales will plummet. So they may think it is a waste of time and money canvassing people to renew.

So are you saying, if we had a different manager these players you say are not up to standard , would suddenly be of the required standard. If so, the players are of the required standard, it's a shame the manager isn't.

Mowbray is the only person who can answer that question. I would not even attempt to fathom his logic.

Kaminski, Nyambe, Lenihan, Ayala, Wharton, Travis, Davenport, Johnson, Rothwell, Dack, Armstrong, Gallagher

During squad training they are with other championship players. It should be obvious to the trained eye if any of the younger players have the potential to develope. To my untrained but life experienced eyes, I would rate Pike and McBride of at least having that potential.

Up to now, it's pronounced, Waste of Money .
