My fiancé is a dingle, what’s the relevance? I think Coyle’s one of the dirtiest Turds to be flushed out of the Morgue. That he was then installed here (not even considering how crap he was here or at his previous 3 jobs) was BS. You're right, it doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things, but facts are facts: Coyle is a complete tosser.

Is that not exactly what’s happening?

The financial weighting of the loan would make sense to me tbh, BUT I fear it may be an excuse. All I know is that his cameos are improving each time, so perhaps it really is as simple as not disrupting the team that brought us up too much, and making Ben work his way in? Imagine if he’d played every game up top so far and not scored (because I feel like that would actually justify the reaction on here).

Supporters Consultation Meeting - Thursday 21st June
Mike E replied to J*B's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Because after 45-60m, the compere wants Mowbray to get 30m chat. It’s irrelevant. The meeting is supposed to be 30m of questioning relevant top brass, not the manager. Just because ‘the questions were answered’ doesn’t mean they were adequately answered. If TM can play his part in holding his bosses to account then fine, but he hasn’t yet done that in 3 meetings. -
From the Fortress Ewood days of 2007/8, up to 2013 (my last ST) the cost of my ST doubled (moving from student to adult age bracket also a factor) and price never bothered me. I reckon if they did exactly the same again (marketed around our ‘do or die’ squad), they could easily build attendances back up to at least a regular 18k fans, possibly over 20k. The habit is easy to get if it’s available. If they just tried something like: £50 junior £100 concessions £150 adults Then increase prices by £5/10/15/year for about 5 years and you’re golden. I also think the price of a half ST should be only very slightly over half the price of a full one (and available for BOTH halves of the season).

Not saying you’re wrong Chads, but I know Bowyer first put the club’s historical achievements on show again. -

Dangerous road, look at Hendry as a coach. Until Mowbray we also had Short. Only success of legends has been in coaching youth. -

I like those ideas very much -

How we don’t have a statue of Bob Crompton, I simply don’t know. Rovers captain, twice manager (and successful), brilliant moustache, England captain, regarded as the single best player in the world at the time (as a DEFENDER), brilliant moustache, local boy and spent his full playing career here, died after a Rovers vs Burnley match, brilliant moustache. ’Mr. Blackburn Rovers’ in every sense!

You sound like you don’t understand the concept of news.

Love it personally! Love the idea of a red rose in place of the red spot. On the home page, what sort of news are we thinking of? Our own generated news? Perhaps links to ‘Newsnow’ for Blackburn Rovers, a link to club pages, club twitter account etc? I like the idea of directing my ‘rovers traffic’ through the forum rather than googling. -
England u21s haven’t lost a competitive game since Harry Kane last played for them. Gwan lads!

I’m pleased that such good personalities head our dressing room, but hope it is with a view to phasing in the new blood. I’m already starting to view Rodwell as Sir Charlie’s heir apparent, such is his composure on the ball at the back.

He was ridden there on Shergar by Lord Lucan

I DON'T KNOW ANYMORE ?

It could be that the meeting is cancelled because no negotiation or justification is needed for TM's demands. Ie: He's asked for a budget and they've just signed it off. Remembered it seemed in the summer that TM had to calm them down in ters of throwing money at it. Maybe seeing that attitude from TM has made them lower their demands of him?
-
Good to read. Well, not literally. The LET is grammatically all over the place!
-
Esp' when our first team has a reasonable record of playing academy players. Raya, Nyambe, Lenihan being the current obvious ones.
-
Remember when the Ewood protests were more common and I was specifically stopped off the fans bus from Darwen by plod (I assume because I was involved with Rovers Trust, and nobody else off the bus was stopped) and asked to provide ID. Only gave repeated answers of 'No thank you officer, I just want to watch the football', but it wasn't until I showed my driving license they let me past. Clear abuse of power, but once was once too often. Bad taste in my mouth. LucklyI have a couple of mates in the police who keep pranking that officer to this day

Brereton showed exceptional nous for that assist. Half-second pause made the defender think it was out for a corner, before bursting onto it for the cross. Think he's earned a start up front on his last 2 cameos, esp as Graham hasn't particularly pulled up trees for a few weeks now.
-
Dack needs to stop coming deep for the ball. Stay just ahead of the centre circle and get forward with the wingers. Richie, Lenihan and Rodwell have been solid in open play, but we lack height when defending. Loving the recurring 'F*** off, Smith!'
-
While not necessary, I'd recommend playing RDR before RDR2. Being a prequel, a lot RDR2's interest is the anticipation of what caused the events of RDR. And RDR is an iconic ending to a fame imo. Also, I could imagine RDR2 could be overwhelming in terms of controls, while moving from RDR to RDR2 is an easier transaction.
-
As a fan of the RDR series, I'm biased. I love it. I don't think it's actually that slow tbh, but I use 'cinematic mode' so tgat any excessive travelling is just like watching a cutscene.
-
RDR2 in 4K... holy shit!

Tell you what, Batman, I could read these discussions for ages, really interesting! To reduce it to a little more crude analogy, is the Simulation Theory basically a bit like the Red Dead Redemption? Ie: Your actions determine your 'honour' and this alters how the simulated world treats you even after respawn. It isn't simply reset unless you know the cheat codes in effect science is the hunt for those cheat codes?
