If you still find enjoyment thats fine. Thats not the issue though. Presumably you still get mad or down and want to kick the cat or whatever if we lose. The other guy said he didnt. He said win lose or draw was all the same to him. Thats what i took issue with.

I did say I moaned and groaned after defeats or poor performances. You seen my posts on here and how angry I got in them about Coyle.

I think you misinterpreted what i meant or you are choosing to twist my words. I never want rovers to lose or draw but when there do its no big deal to me i will not allow things which are beyond my control to upset me. I'm a very placid easy going type of person its in my nature i do not get angry there's no need to.

Why Rovers then?

Precisely, chaddy. I know that however much you sometimes annoy me and I you, we both care deeply about Rovers. It hurts when we lose. Blue bandit appears to sit there totally unconcerned if what he says is true, and that's what I find hard to believe or accept. If it doesn't give you great pleasure when we win, or hurt when we lose then I don't get the point of it.

I'm too long in the tooth for that kind of caper pal why get yourself down & have a s**t weekend if things go s**tshaped. Life too short. Yes i enjoy it when there win but won't get depressed if there don't. Might be a age thing as you get older you mellow out look at life differently.

[Mattyblue]

There are plenty of Ewood attendees like Bluebandit, just watch the match, leave and not think much about it till the next game.

Different fans are their way they are. Simple as. 

Just accept that and move on

We don't usually refer to young gumboots as "pal" either.

Good on them I went to my second game of the year at Villa, painful was probably the most appropriate word to describe watching 90 minutes of Rovers these days.

We were dire that day thank god Villa appeared to be worse. You have to admire the fact people go and it pacifies them, still it gets you out the mrs shopping trips!

[gumboots]

I am the missus and I don't do shopping on Saturday afternoon! Nightmare time to shop.

Anyways Have a good weekend all!

Okey dokey!

Everything is turning to shyte btw,surely you can't be that mellow not to have noticed eh fella?

 

[Reedy You're A Star]

How can next season be a better season? We're going to be in League @#/? 1!

[MarkBRFC]

Probably clinging on to a small shred of hope that we might win one or two.

Just got a text from an employee to say 718 ST's sold to date.

So the vote even on here is 59-128 getting a season ticket- not saying they are getting a season ticket.

Frankly I would advise not getting a season ticket early simply to force the hand of the club/owners, particularly given the news in Pune.

Remember those 18,000+ ST sales when we were in the Premier League? 

 

[scotchrover]

I think I'll be getting one. I was boycotting, but I've missing going on a Saturday, regardless of how bad it was.

If we go bust and cant fulfil our fixtures would we get a refund on our season ticket!!

just a thought

Until I know a little more about the Tax situation I will hold back from buying a season ticket.

No, if the club goes bust there's no cash left to pay refunds or anyone else. If you buy with a credit card you are insured.

The administrators would come in and you would be a creditor to BRFC. As a going concern they might offer you 1p to the pound (£2.99 refund on your season ticket) then it's up to you to accept or hold out. If you hold out and the club declares bankruptcy you'll get nothing.

Anyone who takes on the club from the administrator would I expect want these creditors sorted first. The new owners might take pity on you and offer you a free season ticket as a valued repeat customer. Or they may need every penny they can get.

Payments over £100 on credit card are usually insured.

I've just hidden 24 posts in this threads despite a gentle reminder part way through. It's only the second time I've had to resort to that since my return, so I'm not a happy bunny.

I'd like to apologise to anyone that wasted their time trawling through all that and to anyone's whose valid posts that got hoovered up as collateral damage. PMs and the ignore buttons are great, use them, for the rest of our benefit
