[Archived] Walkersteel Blackburn End?
des replied to Ben-2000's topic in Football Messageboard Archive
its all well and good people saying that watching rovers is chaeaper then other teams and to be fair it is cheaper, but its still not cheap. even if as jan says you get the lowest price seat, which is in area in which the view is quite bad hence the lower cost, by the time you have added on travel, food etc its near £30 and this is for the worst seat, and of which you have to find the up front costs or pay extra for monthy payments. Too top it all players at our club are moaning at £40,000 per week yes per week, that will take me three years to earn, and yet the players are great for playing for us and us fans who cannot afford to go are some how not really fans. Well for some people it as gone on far enough, and we watch rovers the best we can yes on sky or in a pub, and we/I put our/ my family first, which means I will not put it on a card or get into debit so that I can watch a match. Would I like to yes, can I afford to No, answer down to a pub, and no I do not spend alot in the pub three pound at most. Is this fair to the club. no, but we have to pay our way and live within our means just like the club as to. The outcome is that choices have to be made, and rovers are not my number one aim, I hope they do well and when their have the £10 games I do go. But for most of the time I cannot afford to watch them live. -

while others have stated that the proces charged are low if you compare other clubs, nevertheless not many people with families to look after will be able to pay that. Then other fans and the club will ask where are all the lost fans, and before anyone says that the club have to charge high prices for the players to earn the pay that they do, the clubs of all teams have to learn that fans do not have to go and are starting to say stop rigging us off we have had enough. A and Aplus games have to stop and start charging the same rate -
just a word about Kuqi. while his touch is not the best rememeber he came on a free and as scored 6-8 goals. That is very good from rovers point of view, and we should keep him for back up and for the last 15 min when teams are tired and he can use this strength to good effect.
-
for 5 mill there have got a very good deal and a very good player
-
I will say it first a think he will get between 10-15 goals next season what does everyone else think that he will get
-
for me its wrong to blame anyone one player or to go after any one player. what he do was wrong, but all players get at the ref, the answer is not to drive them out , but the ref to have some bottle and be backed up by all in the game and to give them a red card. If that happems it would stop, very quickly indeed anywhere we are off on a five day short holiday so have nice week folks.
-
now that we are out, can someone tell me why we picked our next england boss before the world cup. the fa must of know that all the good ones would be tied up until after the world cup. suelry it would of made more sense to wait, let things settle dowm them pick the next boss. As it is we have a boss who for me while he may be a ok coach as a manager he is not rated yet, well at least by me.
-
I have always stated that with the players that we have we should of played a 3-5-2. to play someone up front on their own who is either half match, or who has no great pace was a mistake. he played a far too safe a game, he looked liked he did not watch to lose the cup, but to do well you have to be able to win it and in that dept we were not at the races. Why take a full back and them never play him, why take holding mid field players( in which we had then enough) and never play them yet take only four forwards. we took some of the wrong players and the game plan was totally wrong for this world cup. still time to move on. well I hope we do. ps Is it just me but I hate it when other players try to get others sent off, I thought that the refs were told to book such actions.
-
if we are going to play two attack mined midfield players them you have in my view to play a 3-5-2 pattrem and with the playess that england have that might well work. however knocking long stright high balls to crouch will not win the world cup.
-
bbc is far better then itv but sky is still miles ahead out on its own
-
I know that the role of a ref is very hard, but on tonights show, the ref wrecked a very good game. In any important decsion the top refs wait a second or two to see what happens etc, this one did not. also some of the booking were wrong and some players got away with no booking at all. and we think our refs are bad
-
well just got back from holiday and when I read who he had picked I was a bit taken a back. to play four fit forwards is taking a bit of a risk, to take four and one who might well not play at all, and one who will only be about 80% match fit, and one who has not play any games at all for england seems to be daft. I am for taking a risk or two, ( do we need three goalkeepers) but you need options when you pick forwards and as such we do not seem to have many with the players that he has picked. Peter C will find it hard against top class defeners to hold the ball up, his touch and upper body strength is just not there. playing fast small forwards works well untill you get to the later stages of the world cup. Then you start to face defenders who are just as fast, but who are also stronger. playing a 4-5-1 will not work. England do not have players to score one them defend for the rest of the game. In the english game we do not hold on too the ball long enough, and as playing with only one up front means that by and large we will not have the ball often. also which of our forwards is good in the air......... another option gone.... oh well I do hope that I am wrong and that the england manager knows what he is doing
-
for me the person should of been big sam people say he play the long ball gamem however if you look at his games play there play both the short ball and long ball, and his outlook his very up to date with training etc. however while I hope the new manager does a good job, its a bad choice, a good coach does not always make a good manager.
-
heard on sky sports that even if there is the slightest chance of roon because fit to play in the latter stages of the world cup, them the manager will take him.
-
for the world cup we need players that are a 100% match fit and its safe to say that he will not be. you can be the greatest ever but if you are not fit you will be found out at the highest level. Its a great shame for the lad and for england but for me he will not be match fit for the world cup.
-
if I was the FA I would ask our manager to do it. He managed wales for five years and the work he has done at rovers is very very good. thank goodnenss for rovers that his name is not on there wish list
-
can the new england manager speak english
-
after todays game, I think that in the summer, stage two needs to be put into operation. I would sell MPG he is a good player but lack the strength and power need for the way that Blackburn play. we need a forward who is tall and as a good touch and can hold the ball up. Midfield. a player who can make goals and beat people, our midfield is strong and powerfull. but lack that bit of skill. defence, some one who can both defend and who is happy on the ball. all the above will cost and hence some players may have to be sold, like MPG and others. MH would use the money to rebuild the team and move us on
-
Two things first of all it is clear to most fans where the team needs to be more popwerful. I think that this will happen in the close season, if we need more funding to do this, I would sell mgp, as we need a player who will play well in most of the games, and not just in some of them and a club might well pay good money for him. second, I think most poeple would of been more then happy to have the season that we have had to date, and as such it is not all gloom and darkness, now if MH and CB were to leave in the close season then that is a different story.
-
first of all the game I hope we win, but a draw and bolton lose today will do nicley. second, having a go at people who might want to go to future games, never mind the poeple that follow rovers, but cannot afford it, does no good. If we want people to go, you have to make them feel welcome, and calling them names etc will not do this.
-
for me when football went down the free market road, them there have to accept that it is a free market. players can earn what they can, club are free to change what there can, and fans should be free to watch football where ever and the cost should be open in a free market. this means that people should be able to chose, where there go to buy the things that there want, and that also means football. people use the concept of free market when it suits them. ie players and clubs and sky etc, but when it starts to harm them there cry foul, well no way, football has gone down this road and will have to live with it.
-
we lost because our two wide mid- field players failed to turn up and as such it was 2 v 4 in the middle and as such you will be over run. away from home you can not play the two wide players that started today, both are very weak when we have not got the ball, and today when we had it there did little with it. The heart of any team is in the middle of the park, lose that, and the team is in deep trouble, amd that is what happened today. we were luckly to get a point
-
well after tonights result, bolton lost, its a point won and a good one at that
-
as we move up in the table, the expections are going to get higher and harder, For me todate we are just about a top six side. As MH as stated, to move on to the next level will mean getting new players and these will not be easy or cheap to buy. In order to do this some of our better players who we have cover for might well be sold and one such player is MPG. He is a good player, but he fades in and out of games and as such if we can get the right money for him, them a deal could be done. On tonight show a apart from CB our forwards are some what limited and this needs to change in the summer, still for me a point won because I thought we were never going to score, and a draw keeps it all boiling nicley
-
todate its about even, and both goals should of counted, lets hope we push on in the second half
