  1. If the ‘project’ Reggie is banging on about is having a club with an average budget 4th in the league and in a FA Cup Quarter Final in his first season then he’s my kind of PM…
  2. I’ve no time for Tottenham, but it’s obviously a great stadium as new builds go…
  3. A big chance as theoretically we would get 7kish at City, 9k for OT. And quite a few ST holders won’t bother.
  4. Ha, what ground is then?
  5. BBEnd NO1, and I might start to do that myself, getting to a JWU stage of life, I think…
  6. Bloody hell you’re joking! He was getting dogs abuse around me against Swansea. Pals in different areas/stands have all said the same. And I bet plenty on here have seen it at Ewood too. Was building ever since the Dingle debacle. ’Football’s shit’, ‘going nowhere with this guy’, ‘should have kept Mowbray’. A goal from them would have seen the crowd turn big time.
  7. Crowds are low because we don’t sell enough STs, and as ST holders make up the vast majority of the crowd, it’s those that need to be cheaper, unfortunately those on social media just don’t understand that basic fact. It’s still £24 a game for this deal in the JWU (the most popular stand for walk ons), is that supposed to see a stampede to the ticket office?
  8. Oh they would, especially if we finish the season strongly. But I think it’s pretty clear from the last FF minutes that there will be no reductions, so it will be a held price at best (I wouldn’t bet against a rise).
  9. A ‘quarter ST’ is better than doing nowt but at £99 to £120 (I.e £20 a game in the Blackburn End/Riverside up to £24 in the JWU) it’s not really going to move the dial, as if you are still a floating fan by this stage of the season it’s because you can’t/won’t commit to every game, and if you can’t make just one of the five there’s no saving anyway. It will sell a few hundred, but a well timed announcement though, which makes a change.
  10. The way it is with quality managers, GB needs a succession plan. Brighton are an example of how to do it.
  11. JDT cup wins… 6 TM in 5 years… 7 (than includes 1st/2nd round FA Cup wins in League 1 season).
  12. Bloody hell an actual Rovers dedicated piece on the BBC…. Is it 2009? https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/64806400
  13. So do I, but I have often heard rumblings around me from other ST holders if 3/4 offers occur in a short period of time… ‘no point buying a season ticket’ etc.
  14. Think you can if you have a ‘membership scheme’. I.e members pay £15, ‘non members’ (I.e Dingles) £30. Sure I’ve seen it elsewhere.
  15. Cameron Stewart, Simeon Jackson, Tony Watt, Jay Spearing, Chris Brown, Luke Varney. Endless list of shite in that era. A lot of issues on the commercial side, but by god the playing side is in a different place...
  16. Like I said, great forum this. 🤝
  17. Some winter of Test cricket that… pretty chuffed we have Old Trafford Ashes tickets 🙂
  18. Not a lot this club (whatever part of it) still does bother with, is there…
  19. Course we could, Chaddy, Masher and err, yeah, suppose you’re right….
  20. You can imagine the look on his face when they had to open up the Blackburn End concourse to accommodate the thousands that turned up for a ticket that morning…
  21. Oh over 15k would be fine, wouldn’t be painted that way on social media though…
  22. Not saying it isn’t, my point was more to sympatheticclaret bemoaning the level of debate on here, when it’s a million times better than what you’d see if it was the other way round on UTC. Really good forum this, for all the grief it gets…
  23. That was seen as a novelty and repeatedly shown for years, as every other player did celebrate until recent times, and quite right too. Though thought you’d have an alternate view on that too. Football seems a bit too raucous and uncouth for you most of the time, Masher 😁
