I'll be amazed if he starts. JDT has already confirmed him starting tonight.

Preston ticket details... https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2022/november/09/ticket-news--rovers-v-preston-north-end/ I know they stated at the beginning of the season that all derby games would start at £30, but Christ it's a poor do. The club will have received somewhere between £50-100k for moving the kick off to 12pm on Sky. Never expected anything different, but anybody with an ounce of sense would have used that cash to offset the prices with the position we are in. We could be going into that game top, after 3 weekends with no football. What could have been something up to 25k will probably settle around the 18k mark. Another huge missed opportunity in what is all too common in Waggots reign. They also fail to mention in the article that 1875 members can get £5 off, unless that has been put in the "all midweek games will be £20" file and forgotten about.

Yeah, if we're playing 3 at the back which i think we will, i would like to see Hedges floating behind Diaz and Gallagher with Trav and Moreton behind him, A.Wharton and Szmodics off the bench later on for any tired legs.

No sales on the day... https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2022/november/07/ticket-news--west-ham-united-v-rovers/

Only suspended for Under 21 games I think.

Believe me i have seen some utter shit, and that today wasn't it.

Just seen someone say on Twitter that we have won 4 Tuesday night away games since relegation in 2012. (Excluding League one 17/18) Millwall - April 2013 Hull - August 2019 Cardiff - June 2020 Preston - November 2020 And two of them were behind closed doors!

Really don't think it will be off. Cov under huge pressure to play there games.

I'd say we need 5 to cover a back 3, so Ayala departing in the summer to allowed Van Hecke to come in would be fantastic business.

Absolute nonesense the entire thing with coyle. Claimed we didn't like him because he put Burnley above us. He got promoted with them in 2009. We beat them twice, finished 10th and had two more years in the top flight while they were below us.

It was always going to phase 3 because there are only 2000 1875 members and 2275 tickets. Heard there's around 300 left for tomorrow.

Wasn't he in the same situation as Phillips in that he hasn't signed a pro contract with us yet?

Yeah he made that joke in March 95 after Utd had just beat them 9-0. It came back to haunt him 9 months later when Ipswich come to Ewood as a championship side in the FA Cup and beat us 1-0. Another woeful game.

Think he's a super little player but concerning how many games he has missed through injury already.

There was a 0-0 at Ewood against Swindon in early 2000 that's up there for me. Us rooted in mid table and them rock bottom.

Any word on why Brittain wasn't in the matchday squad yesterday?

Just got Brum at 3/1. Cheers pal.

These are an underrated team this season, and we always take a step back after a couple forward. Rovers 0 Brum 2

Plus who could resist that huge tanker.

Apparently. The same person also told me that the uptake of 1875 memberships from non ST holders was painfully small. Easiest £20k the club will ever make.

I was told that there was around 2k ST holders with the 1875 membership (1700 eligible for phase 1 as you said). So, if everybody takes the option up it should release a couple of hundred for phase 3, No idea if 100% true but if that wasn't the case i'm sure the club would have stated "phase 3 details to follow if there are any left". The fact they have announced a phase 3 window suggests to me there will be a small amount left.

Two more fixture changes in December. PNE at Ewood and Norwich away moved for Sky https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2022/october/13/two-december-sky-selections/

I obviously meant either Gallagher or Hirst not both of them. I do agree that neither can hold up the ball like Danny Graham, but surely they are both more use stood central attempting to win things so the likes of Dack can thrive just off them? Rather than out wide where they just don't influence the game at all.

I just think the system is a load of garbage, i was hoping these bizarre formations with no strikers would have been out of the door with Mowbray. Why can't we just get one of the strikers central and play off him a bit? We can still play out from the back if we must persist with that, but it's no coincidence that in the last 3 away games we haven't threatened at all bar a last minute missed penalty. Diaz does seem to be at his best coming from the left to be fair, but why can't we get Dack playing off Gallagher/Hirst and see if he can recapture his old form? Hedges out on the right.

I have a feeling the WLWLWL will end soon enough.
