Championship - 22-23

[roversfan99]

I saw on twitter that Alan Nixon reported that Steven Caulker has left Wigan already.

Shaun Maloney has just come out and denied it and said that he is due back training tomorrow!

We will finish 12th. Prepare for the ignominious slide.

How many games have we been selected for sky coverage? Probably a lot more than any other championship team by my reckoning. 

Doesn't make sense to me tbh. 

Feel sorry for those people who bought season tickets for Rovers TV.

That can't be right, we're third, all is bliss, all is bliss.

OK... I realise the Blades and the Dingles are up soon. Still can't fathom why the Stoke game is selected for sky. 

Hate that company.

Simply because we’ve been in the top 3 or 4 as the decisions have been made by Sky. Continue this slide down the table and we won’t be picked again (so every cloud).

Norwich v Dingles today. My real hope is that Hanley smashes the slug that is Barnes into the middle of next week.

We're only a point off 6th!

(There, I did it)

Out of the top 6 and not getting back into it anytime soon either, I suspect 

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

Ridiculously easy for Burnley.

[Mattyblue]

On the Sky issue, since Huddersfield on the 5th November, we’ll have had just one Saturday 3pm home league game until we play Hull on the 15th April.

Swansea - 18th Feb,  Has this fixture been changed ?

[Mattyblue]

That’s the ‘one’…

I suggest that Ashley would just laugh and point to the scoreboard ....

Multi-tasking ..... Clarets on TV, Laptop open, making a batch of Cottage pies, Wales v Ireland 6 Nations on the radio and observing our neighbours pointing at planes ... having six fingers has it's advantages !! 😎

Fair play to your lot. Burnley look unstoppable at the moment. Great time to be a Clarets fan

As a matter of interest, did Kompany talk about a "Project" when he took over?

My betting is he didn't

Yes, but it was times like losing 0-6 at home to Hereford in '87, in front of less than 2,000 that makes times like this even sweeter. 

And, no, he didn't ... 🙄

And I think it's important that we don't lose sight of that. 

I can't imagine what Div 4 even smells like.

Hanley absolutely all over the place for two goals from corners, marking thin air.

Distinctly unpleasant, especially at that time when Football was on it's arse, post Bradford & Heysel.

Rover's average gate in the 1985-86 2nd Tier was 5,826 .... 😒
