Glenn Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 Gav and Debs have a dilemma. They only managed to get one ticket for Burnley and can't decide who uses it. Gav has suggested they both put their sides forward and then YOU decide who goes ! How much more important a decision could you make in life ? So, Gav, Debs, the floor is yours.

SAS Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 This is evil. Right a paragraph from each on why you should have it
Gav Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 Just told her to go away The reason i should be allowed to use the ticket is simple, i've never missed a Rovers burnley game for over 25 years and before that i wasn't allowed to go because i was deemed to be to young. Working in the 'town' also gives me more right to be in attendance, they just wouldn't take my bragging seriously enough if i wasn't actually there. So ladies and Gents i fall short of any cheap shots and hope you'll all come down on the side of tradition. Ps, She only started supporting them in 1992 She still thinks Man United are our biggest rivals She wasn't even brought up a Rover and watched PNE first
Ossydave Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 Gav should go. I'm sure Debs has some housework she can be doing.
broadsword Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 Debs should go: - Less likely to cause a riot. - Will be able to see the game - To wind Gav up.
rosie Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 Debs def because she's a girl and because she could have been a Wednesday fan. The fact that you've been lots of times Gav means you should let Debs have a go.
S15 Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 I voted Gav 'cos I'm a fan of British hooliganism. Up the riots.
Glenn Posted February 15, 2005 Author Posted February 15, 2005 I think Debs should go. We're likely to be stood up for the entire 90 minutes and therefore the ticket would be wasted on Gav who wouldn't be able to see anyway
Backroom trueblue Posted February 15, 2005 Backroom Posted February 15, 2005 (edited) I voted Debs purely in the hope I would be saving Gav from a sore head (after Debs clobbers him with the vac after losing out on the ticket) Edited February 15, 2005 by trueblue
SouthAussieRover Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 (edited) Gav's a hooly and Deb tends to end up on the floor fast asleep (judging by the Blues meet up 2 years ago ) Now I'm all for relationships staying intact so send the ticket to me Edited February 15, 2005 by SouthAussieRover
Debs Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 Gav is making up the rules as he goes along and demands that I'm not allowed to read his post, so I can only guess what case he has made for the ticket. I think I should have the Burnley ticket for the following reasons: 1) The whole reason we don't have a ticket each is Gav's fault. He asserted (as only Gav can) that we wouldn't sell out, so I didn't queue at the ground from before daybreak whilst constantly on my mobile to the ticket office. 2) I have a season ticket and Gav doesn't, so if we apply the allocation rules of the club for this game (which both Gav and myself believe to be fair) I have more right to the ticket. 3) I haven't been a rovers fan as long as Gav as I grew up outside the area, so have only attended the previous two Derby games, both of which we won. I have also attended the Turd on two other occassions supporting the visiting team (Blackpool and Sheffield Wednesday). I have never seen Burnley win when I have been watching them in person. So I reckon I am unlucky for Burnley. That means you're taking a big risk if you don't vote for me. Will you be able to live with yourselves if we lose and you voted for Gav?
Backroom trueblue Posted February 15, 2005 Backroom Posted February 15, 2005 (edited) I have never seen Burnley win when I have been watching them in person. I reckon thats a pretty strong case for giving the ticket to Debs.. Gav, come on mate, do the decent thing ! Edited February 15, 2005 by trueblue
SouthAussieRover Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 (edited) Then again perhaps it should be raffled off. Can we have a third option to vote for...neither deserve the ticket Fourthly, Rover6 should have the ticket because they've never been to a game. Edited February 15, 2005 by SouthAussieRover
Cocker Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 I have only met Gav and Debs once and when I did Debs was lying on her back outside Ewood with a big smile on her face (due to the beer not down to Gav) So my vote goes to Debs cos she will get hammered quicker than Gav and have more of a laugh.
LeftWinger Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 Go as a pantomime cow. Then you both get in!
Dan Furness Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 Not even a contest spark her out GAV, not a chance id give a ticket up to a bird
USABlue Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 (edited) Gav should be allowed to go, simply because of his history with the Burnley game. But, as a side bar, if we win, he (sorry Gav) should have to do the housework for a week and other general Butt kissing as demanded by Debs. If we lose he takes debs out for a meal and a ###### up. Sounds fair to me, have fun Gav. Gav, failing to gain the advantage with any of the above then try this, nick the ticket and break up with debs. I just re-read Debs post, I missed the reason number 3, it's a pretty strong argument. Edited February 15, 2005 by USABlue
philipl Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 Does the loser get to buy a ticket with the dingles?
Morph Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 Debs should be given the ticket, but in return Gav should be allowed to watch the game down the pub, get absolutely hammered, hit the clubs to celebrate a famous victory then stagger through the door at 4 am with a bird on each arm - it's the risk Debs takes for letting him out of her sight.
Debs Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 Gav, failing to gain the advantage with any of the above then try this, nick the ticket and break up with debs. When he saw the way the vote was going, Gav just picked the ticket up from the mantlepiece and deposited it into his jeans pocket.
SD4E Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 tricky one this. having not met either of the two candidates, i feel i may be perectly positioned to judge. Given yesterday was Valentines day- Gav how did you treat Debs? nice suprises, cook a meal etc? Debs- how did you treat Gav? i will vote purely based on this! have to say though, as Gav works in and around dingles, i am swaying more to him at the moment as i know exactly how he feels.
LeftWinger Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 "Football was better before they let women and posh people in" Frank Skinner. My votes gone to Gav, sorry Debs.
Flopsy Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 I think Debs should go as she can fit Gav into her pockets quite easily. Plus im scared more of Debs than Gav sorry mate - ill buy you a pint next time I see you.
