I wouldn't display the banner until shortly after KO. If it goes up before the stewards will remove it before KO and it won't be seen. If it can be seen being unfurled during match will get lots of attention and likely even more when stewards attempt to remove it once they see the message. It's also likely the Rovers KGB are monitoring the site so I wouldn't give too much away regarding exact spot in ground etc.

100% this. In an ideal world they would sell the club and release us from this perpetual torture. However, this is highly unlikely so administration to rid us of the Venky cancer is the most realistic alternative.

It seems counter intuitive to some, but I really hope the judge says no next week. Ofcourse that plummets us into deep do do, but it is the only way we get rid of the Vs. Limping on indefinitely as we are will IMHO do much more damage to us in the long run.

Ofcourse it depends how you define lost the dressing room. Big difference between going out onto pitch in a self destruct mission to get manager sacked and not buying into his tactics, not having confidence in it. It ultimately results in the same outcome.

I felt I had to make that disclaimer due to witnessing how others have been lambasted for sharing any information they have.

I don't claim to be ITK. I'm not regarding transfers etc. However, I do have contacts around Brockhall. JDT has totally lost the dressing room. He can only manage kids as the more experienced members of the squad won't listen to him. Travis was causing him issues around the place by questioning his tactics and selection. The squad are on the side of Travis and have downed tools.

It's very frustrating that the main narrative is the reason the Venkys can't send funds over to the club is due to changes to Indian tax laws. It appears most people are not aware they are being investigated for potential dodgy dealings, which directly involve the club and were certainly not done in its best interest. This information needs to be spread far and wide but the local and national media don't seem interested.

I'm surprised that people can be so confident that the courts will allow the next injection of funds at the end of the month. Just because they allowed it last time does not guarantee they will again. Its widely reported that the Raos are unpopular with the Indian government, they could really turn the heat up on them by not allowing more funds to leave the country. What then?

In regards to a protest. Needs to happen next time we are on TV. Hopefully we beat Wrexham and get a big televised tie in next round. Then the protest needs to cause maximum embarrassment to Venkys. We need to stop the match without people getting bans or criminal charges. Tennis balls on pitch etc. Probably best in a cup match because we would likely get a points deduction in a leauge match which we can ill afford. However, we are likely to get a points deduction in the not to distant future when the inevitable happens and we go into administration.

JDT walks. Alex Neil looks the obvious, easy option.

Tennis balls and chicken on pitch for Wrexham game. Get that on Netflix. Got to embarras them on an international scale.

JDT will walk. Travis was upsetting apple cart in training. Players lost all confidence in him doing same thing every week. I think it's a shame as could have done well if backed but he's not the right man for a relagation scrap. It's a case of who blinks first. Ro.vers won't pay him off. Best outcome is Sweeden pay for his services. We are in big big trouble both on and off the pitch.

Could be 3 center backs today

I've always been a big supporter of JDT. His hands are tied due to the lack of backing he's had from above. However, I do feel he is somewhat stubborn playing the same system week in week out. He has limited options to change personnel, but can change shape such as an extra body in midfield to protect the defence or play 3 central defenders in a back 3/5. Ofcourse can't do the later on Monday now after Hyam's red card. Teams have watched us, worked us out and are now punishing us. He needs to change it up.

Thanks. All sorted now. I ended up shifting a couple of things and driving to Ewood.

Been taken off sale now by the looks of it. Gutted. Could have bought one earlier online but couldn't see how I'd get it on time. No sale on day is ridiculous when plenty of allocation left unsold.

Agree the Riverside needs redevelopment and safe standing may be a good use of the space. I had worried about it continuing to get a saftey certificate but after visiting Loftus Road, Kenilworth Road and Hillsborough to name but a few, no danger of it getting refused.

Any know if they will be selling on the day at Hillsborough. I am now able to go but am unable to get to Ewood before hand and no time for tickets to be posted.

Apart from the obvious difference in quality the thing that struck me tonight was the difference in physicality. No lack of effort and desire from our lads but Chelsea were able to out muscle us all night all over the pitch. We are a well publicised young side but it is become increasingly evident every week that we are a very slight, weak side aswell.

All this is very worrying, the silence and then spin from Waggott doesn't help ease our concerns. An example of this is the team bus issue. He made out we own it when infact it is just leased. This leaves him the the credibility of a time share or used car salesman. When he eventually speaks on this matter no one will be satisfied by his explanation.

Online ticket site has a 10 min queue. Went on to check sales. Really hope they perform today with a bumper home crowd

Made it after dome serious diversions taken. Hope everyone gets here.

We've gone from Tin pot to Massive in 12 hours

Comments that we've seen on last few pages questioning fan loyalty about attendances are ridiculous and devicive. Myself, my daughter, Dad and brother are all going on Saturday. It isn't a cheap day. We go to most home games but due to shift work I don't have a season ticket as there will be a number of games I can't make. We travel away when we can. I am a father of 2 on an average salary. Times are hard and as much as I love the Rovers I prioritise putting food on the table and paying the bills first. I have certainly felt the pinch over the last few months and would never question any fan for missing a games. Anyway, back on topic. Not a must win but it would be great if we can amass as a healthy haul of points over next 4 or 5 matches. The final 3 look really hard on paper and I love a decent buffer by then.
