4,000 Holes – END OF SEASON 2023/24

[4,000 Holes]

4,000 Holes is returning in 2023/24 with four new issues planned. Subscriptions are now available.

For just £10 (which includes UK postage), you will receive the next four issues (109 to 112). 

Issue 109 will be a Special Edition as part of the 'fan takeover day' for the Rovers v Girona pre-season friendly on Saturday 29th July. Previous subscribers are already due to receive Issue 109 - therefore there is the option to get a reduction on the subscription for anyone renewing for this season.

Meanwhile Issue 111 is due to be a 'Nineties Special', to follow on from the hugely popular 2000-10 Special and 2010-20 Special from the last couple of years.

Issue 110 of 4,000 Holes is now on sale and can be purchased ONLINE HERE or via EBAY HERE. It will be available to buy on Kidder Street before the forthcoming home matches. Full season subscriptions are also still available here.

 

Includes another part of the Rovers kits through the decades series (2000s), a couple more inductees to the '101 Great Goals' collection, a big Simon Garner mystery revealed, memories of Brockhall, the future Rovers Olympian, 'Net Spend FC', and one man's epic trip to Plymouth and back in September! Plus other regular features and much more of course...

Please join the applause at 37 minutes on Saturday in tribute to Glenn Entwistle, a huge Rovers fan and regular contributor to the fanzine. Glenn very sadly passed away this month, aged just 37, and our thoughts continue to be with his family and friends. He will be missed massively. 

Meanwhile, enjoy reading ‘Confessions of a Teenage Mascot’ – one of our favourites from the fanzine archive. Glenn’s tremendous personality shines through.

Issue 111 has now been posted out to all subscribers.  It has hopefully been worth the wait - it's the Nineties Special which follows on from previous decades specials. More promotional details to come soon but here's a quick link for anyone who is keen to get an early order in:

Finally got round to reading this last night. Went cover to cover in one sitting! Possibly my favourite 4000 Holes of all time. Well done Scott and all involved! @4000Holes

Well worth a couple of quid and your time.
