Glen - for your sake I hope you can stand this up if challenged…

There’s Myles more to add if he wanted to.

It's a meaningless result.

Too late, (again).

Where was this kind of result when we still had a chance?

The whole culture at the club is entirely wrong, and the annual post Christmas collapse is a leading symptom.

Everyone understands what it was, nobody is being fooled by anyone.

As condescending posts go, that was right up there with the best/worst.

It wasn’t aimed at people on here, but at the evidently cerebrally challenged amongst our fan base.

I don’t make that sort of remark lightly, but am afraid it’s the only logical explanation for some of comments posted on mainstream social media.

Some people clearly are being fooled, and actually still have faith in this ownership.

.........what's left of them.

If you and a few thousand others are happy with being set up to fail year after year, that's fine, enjoy.

Dead rubber wins don't excite me at all, and evidently I'm not alone in that thinking, as the thousands of empty seats illustrate.

Yesterday was like choosing the winning numbers for the lottery after the draw had been made.

Why can't supporters enjoyed yesterday win and performance? Yes we know the issues above the football on the pitch. 

I don't see these games as dead rubber at all but wins for the club, players and fans. 

I don't agree that less STH will have any effect on the regime as has been mentioned we lost over 10k STH from PL and yet nothing changed 

I take it from your comments that you weren't there yesterday

A purely hypothetical scenario, but how would people feel, if it came to light that a hated player from the past, a hated manager from the past and a hated agent from the past, were receiving a percentage, of the season ticket money?

not really bothered,it would be a pretty pathetic percentage with the uptake,would barely cover their weekly shopping🙂

Well it should be met with widespread outrage and a demand for the the truth but knowing our lot it would fly over the heads of most.

Once again, you are attributing remarks to me that I didn’t make.

I didn’t say that supporters should not have enjoyed the win and performance yesterday, but was pointing out the win should be viewed within its context.

That match, and every other until the end of the season, is the very definition of a “dead rubber”, because there is nothing tangible at stake, (ie promotion or relegation).

At a more stable, ambitious and well run club, performances like yesterday could legitimately be viewed as building blocks.

At Venky Rovers, God knows what the team will look like come August.

I know you don’t agree that lost season ticket sales will have any effect on the ownership.

You don’t need to keep reminding me.

Loss of ticket revenue is the only form of protest that has any chance of catching the owners’ eyes.

Whilst I have every respect for people trying to make life uncomfortable within the stadium for the hired goons (Suhail, Waggott and Gestede), they are still paying for the privilege of being there, and that is a clear win for the owners and this regime.

I was working yesterday, but might make it next Saturday.

Then it will be away games only from next season, so another empty seat to add to the many thousand at Ewood Park.

I hope to be back at Ewood Park in my lifetime.

We shall see…….

Each to their own. No problem with you or anyone else attending, but my emotional attachment to the club is in hiatus unless / until the ownership changes.

That's your viewpoint but others have a different one to yourself

it might be dead rubber to yourself but they are points to play for, players want to win and the supporters want to win.

I think yesterday's win and performance should be viewed as a building block under Ismael

No I don't see it at all having any effects, we lost 10k STH when relegated from the PL, nothing happened. 

In 2021/22 season, we have around 7k STH yet nothing happened 

so why will it now?

Excellent performance by the players, pattern of play and good to get back to winning ways at Ewood Park after 2 months

Thank you for your feedback 😂

You either do not understand or do not want to understand the meaning of a “dead rubber”.

How many times are you going to repeat yourself about season ticket sales not being an issue?

We shall see.

You were on the club’s Facebook post before the Sheffield Wednesday game stating you hoped Ismael would incur a head injury as he might see sense, so quit it with the holier than thou act.

Don’t get too lonely at Ewood Mausoleum next season.

I can 1000% guaranteed you it wasn't me who posted that so I would suggested you be careful about accusing people of doing this

another condescending comment from you about people attending games and being a STH.

If that is the case re - the Facebook post and you have an impersonator, I apologise.

People can be happy about wining a dead rubber, but it is still a dead rubber.

Are we going to qualify for the Play Offs as a result of winning yesterday? No.

A Win, loss or draw yesterday would not affect our league status at the end of the season = dead rubber.

As for the last part, have a read over several of my recent posts, including replies to yourself.

Finally , you are not doing anything noble or worthy of praise by attending a football match.

You have no sense of perspective.

Apologise accepted, but just to be clear I wouldn't posted such vile comments about anyone.

To be fair, prior to play-offs being introduced and in the days of two up and two down - which I remember so well - most games were what you might call 'dead rubbers' from January on.  I've seen so many seasons when mid-table in January usually meant you weren't going up and you weren't going down.  Nobody really looked upon these games as dead rubbers.  They were league games and impacted on a final league position and so were treated seriously by all concerned.   Out of the 92 league clubs, only a handful actually win anything at the end of the season.  For most mid-table of one sort or another is how a season ends.

I don't know how they managed to come up with that crowd figure yesterday as even allowing for thousands of season tickets counted not turning up it means c4k home fans bought match tickets.

I find that very hard to believe.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

The attendance was indeed hard to fathom...there were thousand's more away fans during the week.

[MarkBRFC]

There probably would have been a fair few walk ons the other day with it being Good Friday and folk wanting to get out and watch a game.

A load of pissed off ST holders probably swerved it.

As in tickets sold the attendance was probably correct, even though there was nowhere near that in the stadium.

Any guesses on season tickets sold?

I'm being told just a couple of hundred at this stage, be shocked if it's that low
