Goodnight dear friends. Let us hold hands and think of better days.

Played well compared to the rubbish we've had for several months.

Decent start

You haven't mentioned how much was paid.

One of Rev's perennial baddies is our Greg. Brought in some great players and god knows how the mistakes were made. Not a baddie in the scheme of things.

Blackburn has the lowest disposable income in the UK, with locals saying the town has suffered a 'lost generation' As with many former ‘Red Wall’ towns, Labour has suffered at the hands of voters in Blackburn recently Big read by Steve Robson https://trib.al/ra6aGvc Not sure where to put this, but it's part of the picture for the club's finances.

Tearing myself away from the drama going on at work, to something more important.....I think you are more forgiving than me Ian, and probably rightly so. That said I will argue the toss all day long if it is done in good faith, but I'm not sure that's going on in this case. And I find the "we know what's really going on" implied (not by you, by the Gooseberry) not helpful at all. As for the wider point, I didn't feel that the boycott was likely to be very successful, because we have a rather pliant hardcore of fans who even in the Steve Kean dog days just shuffled on by when other were calling for change. But once hardworking good folk wanted to give it a go, I am all for it. I've been missing games for two seasons now, so not a great sacrifice for me, but something has to be done because my support is dangling by a thread right now.

To act decently, you have to do so in both good faith and in agreement with the rules that we set for each other. Sadly, we are not all adults in the sense you suggest. Take our now departed Chaddy, who behaved like a drunk in the corner of the pub shouting endlessly the same things over and over again, seemingly with a level of enjoyment and lack of self-reflection. The bar staff would rightly ask him to leave.

Made in bad faith if you consider his rather childish comments in the other place.

A lot better than recent performances, but not great.

An improvement in the few minutes.

Watford all over us.

Rather too many in.

Funny how some players are lazy and others aren't.

Me too.

1-7 now

Absolutely on point Ian. We are in a desperate situation, with no end in sight. At least we won't have to face the clampets not season.

We had our chance and blew it.

Done for about 30 minutes and then managed to get into the game, and then a smart goal. Maybe we get lucky and get a point.

Dreadful stuff from us. Watching through my eyes.

Poor quality stuff.

Enjoying Bodo Glimt showing how the game is played in front of a tiny crowd.
