Must admit, I cheered very loudly in the car when Stokes bowled Khawaja! (Apologies to anyone who was having a nice drink outside The Emporium).

Not true, it’s the owners’ call.

Waggott is on record as saying the owners won’t have a gambling sponsor on moral grounds. (He was about 10 feet away from me when he said that). But, they’ve no problem with a vaping firm. I can see both sides of the argument re vaping tbh, so I’m not touching that one. I don’t know how much we’re getting from the sponsorship, but I can understand concerns from people about it being lazy on Waggott’s part, given how local they are. After all, we’ve taken the easy route with the catering by outsourcing it. So who’s to say we have or haven’t done the same with Totally Wicked? As long as they’re paying the same as (or even more than) other sponsors would be, I’m not bothered really. I’d hate to see us lose out on more sponsorship money, just because someone at the club was feeling lazy.

Main problem I have with the Totally Wicked sponsorship is their logo- it looks absolutely toss.

Rahm and McIlroy were offered £200 Million to join LIV, they turned it down, then LIV ultimately merged with the PGA Tour anyhow. Rahm has spoken about wanting to be compensated, as he’s £200 Million down for staying with a tour that ultimately merged with the rival one anyway. The lad’s got a point tbf.

I can’t see us winning this series, though I’d love to be wrong. I feel like ‘Baz ball’ will play into the hands of the Aussies, unfortunately.

I think it’s more not understanding when people say ‘they don’t give a shit’ but comment anyway. If I didn’t care about something, I wouldn’t comment about it….

You have enough of a shite to comment though, eh?

They do the bare minimum as owners and there are only such big losses, because of their negligence. I’m not showing any gratitude for that I’m afraid.

That’s not what I was replying to though. Chaddy asked what could make the match day experience better- I replied better food and drink. I said that it would be better for the club to offer better food and drink on match days. If non league clubs can offer street food and craft beers, there’s no reason that Rovers can’t.

Better food and drink for starters.

Messi is a tourism ambassador for Saudi Arabia, so don’t think that will be much of an issue for him. He already has a gaff in Miami apparently, so that one seems to make sense there….

All this talk of money City have spent since Sheikh Mansour came on board, ignores the fact that Chelsea and Man United have spent a fair bit more in that time….

Well, I think so, yes. I feel like I always defend this place to the hilt, whenever it’s labelled ‘too negative’ ‘full of cranks’, or any other label or description attributed to it. If it was as bad as that, nobody would ever log on!

Absolutely 100% yes.

Just as a general point, we really need to get away from shutting people’s viewpoints down as being negative or positive, it’s such a lazy argument, we can do better!

I think the phrase ‘blowing your own trumpet’ would be applicable here. I never got that vibe from said poster previously, but he seemed to lack the gift of humility in a big way. Either way, I don’t think they’ll be back.

Our fan base isn’t unique, we’re the same as everyone else. That being said, we do seem to have a fair few fans, such as yourself, keen to give us a kicking for some reason….

Just to be clear, I really do rate Declan Rice as a player and I think his improvement in the last 3 years has been great to watch, certainly from an England POV. But, he’s still a way to go to be mentioned as one of the greats in his position. Maybe going to a behemoth of a club will get him there…

Behave yourself, man!

PGA top boy….

There’s a long time without football. What would we move on to?

This whole situation is a complete shambles. Like others, I feel for McIlroy! What the hell happens with the Ryder Cup selection now? One thing is for sure, I can’t see the PFA top boy surviving this. His credibility is shot.

I think you can do better than being as dismissive as this, in fairness.

Nah, there’s no way that’s true, I’m afraid- he’s a definite Rover.
