It was the last time "our" group went to Leicester

Our last trip to Leicester was the FA Cup victory under Tomasson - a brilliant night. I'd take that result again. It's an early start and with the dire form (despite last weekend's aberration) I'm not sure we can summon up the enthusiasm. If it's pay on the gate it'll be a late decision

Thank you Mr Ismael.

Rovers are a poor side so goodness knows how bad Southampton must be. Why some of our fans are concerned for them and their manager only they know. I couldn't care less A totally unexpected comeback win and a very welcome 3 points have to be celebrated but doesn't alter the fact we are desperately short of he quality on and off the pitch needed to stay in this division

We have a poor manager and a poorer squad. Please stop denying the bleedin’ obvious

Not another match day. I can’t stand the agony and the hopelessness It shouldn’t be like this

Sorry, not the intention, but it's the same thing I suppose it's not new - Fergie banned reporters all the time if he didn't like difficult or what he felt were unfair questions but the difference is after he had calmed down he always rang them up, apologised, and relations carried as normal - until the next bust-up of course The point I was trying to make is the Ewood hierarchy seems so sensitive to any sort of criticism that it wouldn't be a surprise if Radio Lancs receives a similar ban to the LET. Presumably Ismael only has to say the word and the brains trust above him will act. This lot don't think - how can alienating the local media help keep fans onside when the club in its current predicament needs every friend and supporter it can get?

Does this remind you of the behaviour of anyone on the other side of the Atlantic (and his counterparts here)? BBC Radio Lancashire looks like its's going to be joining the LET in the Ewood naughty corner soon

There’s a group of us that’s been attending longer distance away games for many years - not all games by any means but picking the ones where we enjoy going or maybe a new ground where we’ve never been before. Probably 7 or 8 games a season. It’s always been a fun day out for a few old codgers, on the road or by rail, even in the worst times. We’ve been to one game this season, and I can’t see us going to another one. The feeling has gone, killed off by the constant mismanagement of the club and feeling that it is all so pointless (literally). The relegation last time was bad enough but this coming one feels terminal and one that the club will not recover from It’s sad but all good things come to an end I guess. Maybe it is old age but we’ve come to an agreement - we don’t enjoy it any more. The problem is there’s more and more of us drifting away, and the fanbase gets smaller with each passing year. The missing fans won’t be coming back - and they’re not being replaced by younger ones who probably think they’ve better things to do with their time and money than support a failing and most likely dying club

Don’t understand why any fan would want this because there’s no guarantee they will leave - ever. Why should they?

Fair play to you. That’s real support and dedication. Not many of us left

He was a dud in all his previous jobs except for a fluke season at Barnsley and he’s still a dud. As it stands he’s taking us down to league one. If the brains at Ewood care about that they’d bin him tomorrow. But we all know it’s not going to happen. The season is over RIP BRFC

Keep saying it, years ago the fans would have been on the pitch at the final whistle demanding change. Now there’s just apathy and resignation

Would Sam Allardyce come back? I can’t think of anyone else who would sort out this mess

You forgot the manager. He’s a dud
