    And £15 on top to print their name and number.

    Literally seems to be for an individually numbered shirt and box. But as you say, it's difficult to justify the price point for those alone. It'll get even more embarrassing if/when the shirts are discounted. Wouldn't be surprised if they are 'prizes' in the Rovers Return draw or for people who buy a ST next season.

    500 of the boxed, numbered ones. Presumably quite a lot of the 'standard' ones, they're in a full range of adult sizes going up to 5xl

    Even some of the Venkys logos around the pitch look worn or at the very least in need of a clean. Perhaps they don't watch, despite what is claimed.

    Fully in agreement that Ewood Park has been neglected and needs much care, but comparing it to the murder of a baby through abuse is either a ridiculous exaggeration of what is going on at a football club or downplaying an evil and vile act.

    How refreshing to have a player on the left who understands the basics of defending. Might not offer much going forward or have pace, but at least Pickering is in position to help at the back.

    Arguably VI has had it worse in a way - they sold/lost half of his starting team in one window and brought in the calibre of de neve, Sidnei and henriksson, plus a lad who would miss a third of the season. JDT and JE didn't face that level of mismanagement.

    Seems a bit of a generalisation, and not something I'd heard of. And in Alebiosu's case, it was reported he had to apply for a Nigerian passport months ago in order to be eligible, so hardly a shock to him.

    No expertise beyond GCSE physics, but I suppose the water is now channeled to where the river runs faster?! Rather than slower moving in the wider part where the wall is. However it doesn't resolve the primary issue which seems to be how slow the immediate drainage from the pitch is, or when the river level reaches the outlet height

    We need to take a philosophical approach. 'if a goal is scored at ewood, but it's raining, will the goal count for anything?'

    There's now a further factor to add to this: the likelihood the game will actually complete, or instead be abandoned and be a complete waste of time. Does anyone know if those who bought tickets for the first Ipswich game got their money refunded?

    Apologies for the lack of clarity, yes I meant bringing de neve on for hedges rather Ribero, I know hedges was injured. Another one to add to our casualty ward.

    Not sure it's a list he has kept, perhaps him scribbling down the decisions which came to mind when he lost his cool at the ref performance? I think he got the sub of hedges wrong, Yuri would more likely have sat in and helped the backline. I prefer him being honest and not biting his tongue tonight, at least it shows some passion, even if it may come from concern for his own position

    I don't disagree that ST pricing is too high but I'm not convinced £300 is the mark to really move the needle on attendance. If it was, and I'm happy to be corrected if my recollection is wrong, the Riverside would be much fuller as that was the initial price. Make it £300 all around and we have an empty Riverside and possibly much lower revenue.

    Any deals they do have to be careful not to undercut the cost per game of ST holders, therefore when it's a discount across multiple games the savings aren't dramatic. All goes back to the issue of ST prices.
