As the display name suggests, I would've preferred this one away, but still delighted with it. I know a lot of Wrexham fans who think it's a great draw, but their forum has baffled me. Arguably one of the biggest names outside the PL Less than 2 hours away Enormous allocation In bad form so a real chance of winning I expected they'd see this how we saw the Leicester draw, with the added bonus of us being even worse, and it's a weekend game!

On a positive note, Betway have us at 33/1 for relegation still. That means if you put £20 on, you'll receive enough (just) for a season ticket to watch League One Blackburn Rovers under Simple Steve's directorship. This is a disgusting decision and those who sanctioned it should be publicly outed and sacked.

Well the law of averages would indicate there is some sadists in the fanbase, but there won't be many.

Fingers crossed he's the guy who turns around and says "fuck this" and they sell up on advice from a person they trust. I can dream.

This is exactly how I see it. And ultimately, the final nail in the coffin was at 2-0 down when we could’ve scored 4/5, so the result isn’t really on him. Better than the mistake that gets him being in a 0-0 or costing us a win 🤷🏼‍♂️

I think they just can’t be arsed with sitting and working out a loyalty points system. It is easier to just go with an arbitrary decision, made at the last minute, because nobody is accountable to they club’s key stakeholder. Us, the fans.

A very good point, sadly.

The only people I see actively wanting him back are from 3rd world back waters with next to no female rights laws. So I agree with you, I also cannot fathom how 3 men raised with western values, including ETH from one of the most liberal nations in the world, can basically say ‘yes that’s okay’. ETH does have previous, given his defence of Overmars being a pest & Quincy Promes stabbing someone. A part of me wants him to play, so that he can be ripped apart mentally from the stands & physically from the opposition, make him suffer like he made her suffer.

Adam Wharton is the best player in the league. Ridiculous.

1. Southampton 2. Leicester 3. Rotherham 4. 9th 5. 47 6. Adam Wharton

The email states TV specifically is the reason

Leeds at home has been moved to the Sunday for TV. I only know about this because the Blackburn 10K that was due to be on the 10th December has been brought forward a week because of the game being moved.

It’s both. They don’t care enough to do market research, but a lot of it (I think) comes from the old belief that everything should see a year on year price increase. They’ll tell us costs have gone up but will politely ignore the fact that those costs shared by more people would reduce the cost per head.

Have conversations around customer database with certain people from the club as part of my job, and speak to almost every other club in the country on the topic too. I can safely say Rovers are the least interested in actually doing anything with it. They just aren't arsed. Doesn't help that the head of marketing is a child.

Best part of football bar none. Maybe European competition draws but I’m too young to have experienced that properly so couldn’t say.

Only 6 of the unsold blocks are limited availability. I'm sure they'll sell more this week, but that's rather poor.

I think he literally meant the U23s game this week.

Completely agree with this - comes across as the club endorsed his particular way of supporting the club… Or is it a PR stunt? The cynic in me says the latter.

Great prediction

I expect that they've seen a few mentions of the word protest RE Monday and are just telling the staff to expect people being angrier than usual etc. Nothing to see here, sadly.

Death by a thousand cu(n)ts

I wouldn't put it past Brum's snide owners to do it purposely to have the excuse lined up for shit/no signings, and Waggot to completely miss it, the daft prick.

Any player-manager meeting will take place at the team hotel/St Andrews surely

You read something like this and wonder why you're going to spend your day on here waiting for rumours/links/actual transfers, but we'll all still do it. I hate this game.

You're right. If there was ever a time to sell Ewood and move onto the outskirts in a soulless bowl with 17-20k seats, it's this next few years. I am not advocating for that just to confirm, but barely anyone would raise an eyebrow.
