Yep, I’m not too disheartened, typical Rovers obviously to throw away the chance of a big cushion to 7th. But the reason we do lose games like this is because we have a pretty average/inexperienced bunch of players. So going into to Easter with a four point gap? Cracking place to be all things considered.

’Excellent’ signing? No chance, he’s shown glimpses of quality (when not injured, that is), and I’m certainly happy to see him at the club, but has been poor on a fair few occasions too, and now can’t even get in the team.

Bit harsh, he just needed a run of games.

He’s from the Wirral, probably why he’s so soft.

UK is entirely appropriate in this context as there are a shed load of LFC glory hunters in Wales and NI.

Nobody despises the glory hunting hordes more than me (pathetic individuals who are trying to get some reflected glory in their sad little lives), but due to said millions of plastics across this country it’s not exactly a surprise that LFC can fill their ground even from a ‘small’ city, is it…

Was it Szmodics you wanted snapped last time? Unique approach to fandom, I’ll give you that.

Liverpool are a club full of UK and foreign glory hunters, they don’t need the city itself to fill their ground. Everton get their support from across Merseyside and north Wales (population of 2 million). Like Manchester, it’s just a case of city council boundaries being tightly drawn, they have huge catchment areas and support bases.

Was reading in today’s Times that Championship clubs are set to reject DAZN’s offer to screen every game, whilst L1/L2 clubs are going to accept it. Some sense from our league, obviously a death wish from those down the pyramid…

Oh I do, makes no odds now if they win games, nobody is even paying attention to them now as it’s already sewn up.

I’d give up now if I was you J*B or it’s going to be a very late bedtime 😁

All I know is after an hour of listening I want to drive my car into the central reservation… but I also want to visit a builders merchant.

Burnley. Talk Sport. Neil Custis. Christ.

Smart cookie is Jack

Dack could go either way. I’d personally keep him if he’s willing, but in all likelihood one more year will be the most we’ll see of him, then he’s on to the free transfer market in his thirties with two ACLs for clubs to mull over. But surely not a chance Ayala will stay. Big earner in the context of modern BRFC, centre half is one of our strong points and he spends big chunks of each season unavailable.

Re-cancel promotion!

Phil talking about parochial Blackburners? Vinners straight back in from the wilderness!

It isn’t, of course. Fanbases are made up of all kinds of fans, some can commit to pretty much every single away game, some will just go to local/‘big’ aways. Some will always buy a ST, some will walk on when they are free. Pretty basic stuff, but you know, there’s re-tweets and Likes to chase.

‘Some fans only go to big games’. Who knew!

To be fair at least half the pages on this thread are nonsense 😁 But generally, yes, I can even remember match threads still on page 1 an hour before KO.

And obviously the extra 5k wouldn’t be paying £30 as plenty of concessions, so it would probably be about 100k of potential sales lost. These Dingles obviously think Venky’s are like Andy Holt in which every penny from big away followings count. They won’t bat an eyelid, these are owners that have literally turned down millions for players on a regular basis and are happy for them to walk out for nowt.

Maybe because 6,000 Norwich fans wouldn’t quite be as difficult to steward and police than 6,000 Dingles who’ve been on the piss for about 10 hours.

Of course you can’t force a player to move, footballers run down contracts all the time. But here, Armstrong aside, when did we last sell anyone for any kind of decent fee? A rather odd ‘trading club’ that never sells a player. But, the penny has finally dropped it seems. So all power to GB.

… and they will.

Or Luton.
