I was rather pleased that we the players took some responsibility and got the draw.

I'm genuinely trying to process what is happening.

I'd play for a point tonight to stop the loses.

Two separate issue: has Glen acted in bad faith and can Rovers survive without Venkys? On the former, I think Glen does not need to disclose meetings of the sort described above, and even if he was wrong in this case, he has a track-record of doing the right thing in regard to the club. On the latter, it is a charge that cannot just be swept aside, and I have been at pains to advise fans that administration is not a good thing for the club. However, in just the last 15 months, the club has lost two excellent managers, both without explanation. The approach of the troika this week has been insulting and divisive. So I'm willing to take the risk of things going tits up.

Ps now we know why they don't do any interviews.

Can anyone point me to the "legacy fan" quote. Thanks.

Sky is Boro TV.

Crap ref BTw

Claret.

20 mins and feels like a lifetime

Well done Glen. These are really difficult things to do and you got over all the main points.

Well-written piece.

I think the legacy fan comment, if true, is something I can't past. You can see me in my picture, proud as hell, sporting the blue and white halves. I've been attending EP (with some breaks) since around 1970 when I was seven years old. I gave up this year I'm afraid, being so distraught about how the club is run. Maybe a BRFCS "legacy fan" t-shirt would be seller.

Great video from Rory and looking forward to the next phase. The Gestede interview was I think, the most revealing regarding the squad, Eustace and future direction. Well done Elliot.

Chaddy, your boys took a hell of a beating

Much to say, but the corker from SW was his comment that incredibly we still have a chance of promotion.......

Goodnight

Tactically brilliant from Glenn and co. I tip my hat to you.

No, just one.

Or Dalglish.

SGE?

Erm, we didn't sign anyone, we finished six, got relegated......

Tears rolling down my face reading these memories. Here's mine. This was a time before Sunday pub opening hours being extended, so I watched it in my trade union bar, bang in the centre of Manchester. The bar was packed with United fans, me and a few of my City-supporting mates (the irony). The barman, City fan, claimed he couldn't the United game on, do made the 100-odd United fans watch Rovers. I was legging it to the loo every five minutes once the game started, and during one of my trips Shearer scored!!!!! By halftime I couldn't stand the tension and left the bar, radio to my ear to be on my own. I paced around the city centre until Alan Green proclaimed us champions. Cue celebrations with my mates as the United fans traipsed out into the Peter St sunlight. The night after me and my girlfriend (now wife) sat in the Darwen End with a middle aged women shouting "Killer" throughout. Wonderful. I think favourite memory is all the terraced houses on Bolton Road having scarves, improvised posters and newspaper headlines displayed on their front windows. For once our small town was king. And then we messed up.

That, with JE still at the helm I think we'd still be in the top six.
