For anyone going next week, what are your travel plans? Weighing up getting the train but can't be bothered with any aggro and equally dont want to be treated like a criminal by the police all afternoon.

I don't recall you coming on here to do weekly reviews of your games last season.

Fair point - though firstly we weren’t in the same league and, more importantly, I was pretty depressed after every game last season 🤷‍♂️

But it’s a fair point, I’ll edit the posts and not comment further.

I don't think there's any need for that. I personally enjoy your contributions and hearing a pretty fair viewpoint of events over the m65. I'd have enjoyed hearing them last season even more so, but that doesn't mean I don't think there's a place for them here. For instance, was good to hear a bit of context regarding the Cardiff game.

There is a plus, right now Sunderland look likely to spank us and I’ve got an excuse to steer clear of here - and of course that’s followed by t’crapico which, considering we only get 2 1/2 days recovery, we may also lose so it’s a good time to bow out 😂

If Waggott doesn't get a new goalie in you may have nothing to worry about.

I think you being on here is good as it re-affirms that we are the morally righteous fanbase 😉

If a Rovers fan went on NNN or Clarets Mad back in the day, they wouldn't get more than 1 post in without being vilified, insulted and banned by some small minded cave dweller with a burning hatred borne out of jealousy.

However , as we'll always be a more successful and bigger club than you (albeit on our knees at the minute) , we can freely welcome the few of you that have evolved to the level of figuring out electricity and the Internet as well as procuring a specially adapted keyboard and mouse for the additionally digited  😜😁

*As much as I really dislike your fanbase , we should both be proud of what two small mill towns from East Lancashire have given to English football.

Don't be silly.  Fair do's to you you came on here and acted like a human being when we were in the ascendency.  Enjoy your time in the sun we surely would.  Would love to beat you lot but we are just worlds away right now and with Calamity Pears it's a home banker.

Has the Dingle game sold out yet?

[Mattyblue]

Goes down to a loyalty point level that will cover all ST holders (I think) tomorrow.

[frosty]

I think they said if any tickets are still left after today, there'll be an announcement on the 22nd. Hoping there'll be a decent amount left for ST holders with less than 270 points....

Where's that from? I'd imagine there'd be an 'announcement' rather than straight on sale.

I'd be surprised if they haven't laid on enough transport for fans wishing to use it especially when they recommended it. If I was you I'd try again later today and if you still can't book and online give them a call.

[only2garners]

Both clubs and the police want as many fans as possible to use the coaches. I'd agree with arbitro.

Think they will be disappointed.

This is the first time in years that the game has been accessible to go on the train, probably since 2005? Bubble games from then up until the game in 2022, and then on that day there were railworks making it pretty much impossible.

There will be a good number going on the train I reckon.  

[Ossydave]

Not sure about anyone else but found it MUCH easier to purchase one this morning than last time, logged on at 10am and didn't even need to refresh once.

[only2garners]

The police know that plenty will use the trains and will be meeting all the possible trains on the morning at either Burnley Barracks or Manchester Road.

There were no travel restrictions when we played them two years ago and the vast majority went by official coaches/buses. I know a few who made their own way by car but at that particular time there were no trains on the day.
