Smacks of desperation.

[broadsword]

Desperation, you'd know all about that being a Dingle.

Coyley still doing the garden?

Perhaps you should take advantage of it and get down to Ewood? It'll be quite some time before you're back for any other reason.

Only thing is Westy, even without offers we've had at least 22000 home fans on every game, a number your shower can only dream of

Says the muppets that allowed thier manager to chat with another club - and then spit the dummy out and send him on Gardening leave...

£30 for 3 very winnable games - Great offer!

[mellison24]

NOBODY can complain about that offer: 10quid a game? Did your hands in your pockets and get down to Ewood. They need our support now more than ever!!

[Amo]

Please don't give the troglodyte the attention he so desires.

Coyley still doing the garden?

Shall I walk past his house and have a look?

[S15]

Nah just facebook his daughter. That's what I did.

Is that Cockney slang?

Your bunch of inbred cavemen you call a board should try deals like that to maybe up your average attendance north of 20k.

[T4E]

Is that Cockney slang?

Yes. Shillito cooked his daughter.

[sambo]

Quality.. his daughter doesn't even have her facebook set to private, so anyone can have a look. Keira Coyle is her name

Typical dingle retard.

Where`s your god gone?

[mellison24]

Smacks of desperation.

Translation into non-dingle speak: Spanking the sister.

[Amo]

Please refer to the sapient Post #11: Do not feed the Dingle Troll.

Anyway, this is a great deal, and I hope many will be taking advantage of it.

Cretin

[Steve Moss]

John Williams is one of the better managers in the league. He understands the value of a strong home crowd to survival.

[Anti-Dingle-Brigade]

He also understands the concept of agreeing compensation prices BEFORE letting your employee talk to another club.

It's a good deal for people who want to go to these games but TBH my first thought was "why buy a season ticket?" I'm sure we will continue to buy our STs but the level of discounting and packages around these days will I feel encourage fans to just buy tickets on a match by match basis. I'm sure someone will come up with the maths to prove me wrong, and I'm sure the ST still makes good sense, but this was my first thought on seeing the offer. I can't help but feel the pricing structure at Rovers is now so low we are storing up trouble for the future. The price of a PL game is now pretty well established as £10 / 12 perhaps a bit more in some areas. This is either through the ST average per game or these deals. I can applaud the club's efforts but one has to wonder where it will lead. Imagine if we are relegated, if PL games are worth £10 / 12 what price the Championship? The pricing is good short-term but not for the longterm and makes retaining our PL status absolutely crucial.

I supposed all sorts of research will have been done over the past few offers to see how spending in the club shop and catering stands differed from a 'normal' match day. I suspect people going to the game are far more willing to treat themself to a half time pie and drink, a luxury which can bumph the ticket price up a fiver or so no problem. Obviously the club shop merchandise must take an upturn too, and though I might be completely wrong, but it might just end up that overall matchday revenue might not drop too far south of what they would usually expect from the said games, if at all.
