Hello all. Thought I'd register on here tonight as I'm a Stoke fan living in Chile for the past 15 years, following the local football all that time through thick and thin, completely bewildered by th

I suspect what’s happened here is as follows... Brereton has performed poorly, again, and been subbed off. A few people have made ironic cheers, maybe the odd couple have booed, and a few people

I agree that £7 for an unproven player was not a good investment, regardless of what happens now.   It must be difficult for many of the true Rovers fans here [i just showed up and confess to not

Wow! I’m loving all this because he made it all happen himself. The boy deserves everything good coming his way. 

Exactly, what a likeable lad he is. I'd written him off but I don't think I've ever wanted to see someone succeed more than him.

And on the other hand, you have Mowbray.

Given expenditure is clearly very tight, what are you expecting the club to do? Open a branch of the Roverstore in Chile? Honestly, beyond boosting our social media profile I’m not sure what we could do given the circumstances. A preseason tour of Chile is hardly on the cards. Getting him to sign a new contract is easier said than done I’d imagine.

We currently have an on line retail presence……perhaps look into the logistics of a Chilean distributor? Perhaps look into a more club centric marketing approach? Perhaps think about selling club broadcasting rights (which we now own since leaving iFollow) to a Chilean digital agency/broadcaster? Perhaps think about having a Spanish/Chilean online presence?

It’s not about flogging shirts out of the back of a van.

Finally the media have recognised one of the Summers best stories. There is an honest admission from Brereton about his disappointing form for his first two years here. 

"I learnt a lot of things out there, different styles of play and I'm going to bring it back here (to Blackburn)."

If he's now seen the 'bigger picture' stated in that article then he will absoloutely walk away on a free in 12 months.

Wouldn't that really sum up TMs tenure. Signs a kid for a huge sum of money, never really gets anything out of him, and then he walks away for free at the end of his contract. All that money wasted.

Glad someone posted this here.  

at min 00:18 Ben orders a CHACARERO, which is a chilean sandwich made with thinly sliced steak or pork, topped with tomatoes, green beans, a few chili peppers, and optional mayonaise, served on a round bun.  it's my american wife's favorite sandwhich and, it seems, was named by the american Time Magazine as one of "The 13 Most Amazing Sandwiches The World Has To Offer". (i don't care for the green beans)

I like how the girl at min 00:23 yells "Pass it to him!" ("pásasela!"), underscoring what many chilean fans felt--that BB was not given enough passes by his team mates.

Good for him.   Enjoy your moment.  Get paid.

Brilliant!

The game I watched finished 1-1.

Antofagasta scored a cracker in the 90th minute and La Serena equalised with a penalty at 90 + 11 (eleven). Decent watch.

That’s a very nice shirt for 18 Euros and it’s properly halved, or quartered, if you’re fussy.

I don't think it is reversed. The side stripe needs taking into account.
