I know of a handful of people that have season tickets at Stanley that are Rovers fans. I suspect that it’s to do with cost and because they’re from Accy and it’s a social thing really. I could never get a season ticket anywhere bar Ewood though personally, so it isn’t something I think I’ll ever understand tbh.

Good for you Chaddy. I hope he is ready, but I think he needs to be used sparingly for now. There’s no substitute for experience.

No doubt Garrett was impressive, but whether he’s ready for a full championship season is another matter.

Life is far too short to waste time on hating people tbh.

What? I never said that at all, re read my post. Think you might need a lie down big man.

I know it’s only pre season, but that first game was shite.

I personally disagreed massively with the post, but it’s their opinion and they’ve a right to it. A lot of It’s in the wording. I.E- ‘our transfer window so far has been a bit slow, what are we up to?’. Nowt wrong with that for me and a fair summary. Don’t forget it’s silly season, everything goes at a million miles a minute including people’s emotions. I wish we had moved more quickly and bedded in new signings already, but this is Venky world and I’ve seen quicker tortoises.

Tony Sirico, best known for playing Paulie in The Sopranos has died today. Him and Silvio were my favourites from that show and there were many candidates! R.I.P.

People have said we are relegation candidates ‘as it stands’, I don’t agree, but that’s just their opinion ultimately. If people want to judge the transfer window so far, then I’m not shutting down that viewpoint, as that’s all it is. If I did, this thread may as well be locked until the window shuts. I would personally rather we had been more active in the market so far, as the longer players have to bed in with their new team mates, the better. Particularly given we’re three key players down already. Whatever your views on those players is, they played a lot more than they didn’t last season.

The Grey Horse a bit further up the road may have it on. You might be alright going into Coley’s bar if you don’t have colours on….

I agree that some people are jumping the gun, but the JDT out one was quite clearly taking the piss….

If we shouldn’t judge until the end of the window, or until we’ve played a few games- might as well shut the board down and let the mods have the rest of the summer off…. (Seriously though, that’s not happening, people with different opinions are just voicing theirs, some we agree with, some we don’t. Whatever next?)

Cantwell drives a Lambo, I think it’s safe to assume he’s on far more than any of our squad.

If we can’t afford the wages of Nyambe and Lenihan, we definitely won’t be able to afford Cantwell. Unless Norwich are feeling incredibly philanthropic of course!

I’m not judging entirely just yet, as we always appear to be slow in anything we do relating to transfers. It’s just a bit frustrating we haven’t signed anyone yet, while other teams are well under way…

Isn’t he on holiday?

Declan McKenna and Working Men’s Club will be right up your street then!

No, it was because it’s politics on the football thread.

You not reckon the club could roll their sleeves up and graft a bit to win those fans back? Or make tickets more affordable in the midst of a cost of living crisis though? They really haven’t done all they can at all.

Don’t think anyone has said he’s a bad player, more that he’s well paid and rarely available? That’s incredibly frustrating and had meant overall, he’s been a poor signing. Shame really, as he’s got plenty of ability.

Scott Wharton is definitely over 6”. He lives near me and I see him out and about fairly regularly. Guy’s a giant.

On what basis? Their fan base is miles bigger than ours…

Apart from the other year when it was £43 in the JW Upper against Sheffield Wednesday inc. the match day surcharge?

Ayala will be fine as long as he’s under contract, he’s never fit.

I’ve never understood the comments about the number of pages before a signing. If the club had made some signings, we’d have that to talk about. As it happens, they haven’t, so we haven’t. TLDR- we’ve no incomings to discuss, so we have to talk about outgoings. It’s not all that deep….
