  1. Baath was also very injury prone prior to last season, chances he would go so well again this season at his age? I know it is easy to criticise everything going on, and I am far from happy with things, but can see the reasons behind some things, especially when you consider they are trying to cut costs, doesn't mean I agree, and as I said leaves us thin if one of the 3 main defenders gets an injury.
  2. I personally have no issue with Baath being let go when Carter and Wharton are fit, both played next to nothing for us last season, the issue is if they can stay fit as if they do then surely Wharton with Hyam is first choice and Carter as back up to one of them, also possible for him to play full back or one of 3 at the back. The problem is we have little back up beyond that other than O'Riordan, so something is needed or we are reliant on kids.
  3. The idea behind a price change is to encourgae earlier renewal or purchase to advance the cash received, or peoples circumstances changing, or people having too long to think about what a shit show it is. From a business perspective getting the money in earlier is always a good idea to remove risk but also benefit from interest etc, especially in the low season for income when no matches are being played. I have used something similar in businesses I have been a finance leader to encourgae customers to pay quicker, say normal terms are 60 days but offer a cash discount if they pay in 15 days (2%) or 30 days (1%). The problem with a football club, esepcially one like ours, is that disposable income is not massive for most and in the summer with holidays, kids off school etc, it can get eaten up a lot quicker so having 300-500 quid to spend is tough many at this time of the year, especially if trying to justify it to the better half at the minute!

  5. I was in the front row with my Dad, my mums family are from Liverpool and many season ticket holders who borrowed Rovers scarfs, hats and tops off us. We celebrated with them after in Old Swan with all the family including some champagne my Dad had saved for a special occasion.
  6. Just turned up to watch The Libertines in Amsterdam, warm up music on and they’re playing Joy Division, it’s a sign! ”Duff! Duff will tear you apart again” het your money on it.
  7. Anyone trying make sense of what these clowns are doing is treading a dangerous path towards madness!
  8. Significant! I suppose it is subjective as something is significantly more than nothing, but we’ve spent significantly less than we have raised, so spin that you shower of ####’s!

  10. Joke of a ref again, that Hedges booking is a disgrace.

  12. Not done much wrong? He booked two of ours for nothing then gave a free kick for a dive ffs.
  13. We have been absolutely terrible, but this ref is clueless, Preston players conning him in to free kicks and yellows before that red card, which was probably right but he caused it the prick.
  14. That was an awful 45 minutes and we were lucky to go in nil nil against ten men. Need to change to up second half, get Gueye, Cantwell and the baby Saka on. Oh, and if anyone knows the prick who through that object from our fans give him a smack.
  15. One thing I haven’t seen mentioned, are the club not doing a bus to the game? Given the extra money they’ll make from the game maybe they could have put some extra busses on to the game, not free but at cost. They can’t be the only ones who don’t know public transport is a shambles.
