Either red and black halves or stripes. Or yellow. Traditional Rovers away colours and we should always alternate between them.

Apart from an odd bit of murmuring, which is to be expected when you have been as off form as BB has, and something every player gets, he has had excellent support from the fans throughout. So it annoyed me to see the usual fools on the LT website etc. slagging off ‘typical Rovers fans getting on his back’, when it wasn’t the case at all.

Yep, we couldn’t get near them.

It was time for a change, but he was a fantastic manager for us and exactly what we needed when he was appointed.

I imagine the red button will leave a fair few people who struggle to make night games with a decision to make...

It should only be re-opened if they are going to make it a PROPER singing section. Flags, banners, reduced prices for young adults etc. You know, bit of fan engagement like every other club

Ticket prices are wholly based on potential away followings. Local game... Cat A as there will be 3,000 minimum to fleece... 900 sold. West Brom on new year’s day... Cat A as they are gong for promotion, PL recently, they’ll bring plenty on a bank holiday... 1500 sold. Another Waggott mess up.

DE for management consultant!

Indeed EA. I remember Souness missing a late season dead rubber game for us as he went scouting players instead.

Portsmouth and Coventry on the big screen you say? I'm on me way!

I’ve noticed other clubs how now sorted out alternative credit arrangements with Zebra kaput. So, that shouldn’t be an excuse now...

We’ve had more dickhead Preston fans on here than any other.

I thought the accounts stated that we have spent it?

Well it won’t be next season (Preston, that is, not t’other lot as they’ll be elsewhere )

.

According to Sharpe, Chapman travelled, but obviously not on the bench...

Well they certainly won't play on Monday then, day before an U23 game. Probably not Norwich away, 'not the right game against a top side' So, maybe 10 mins against Swansea. Real missed opportunity for their development, Shame.

The 'not disrupting the U23s' is the daftest excuse I've ever heard. The whole purpose of that side and the academy in general is to provide players for the first team. Indeed Buckley or Butterworth get a game today and they will be absolutely buzzing for the U23s game at Everton on Tuesday, plus it helps Johnno's teamtalk - 'another one of you had a first team start on Friday, you're a great side etc.'.

Heard him on Radio Lancs last night and he thought a few of them weren’t on it in training and needed reminding the season wasn’t over. Thats exactly why at least one young lad should be starting.

That ‘slow down’ comment was either the most naive comment I’ve ever heard or he really is as good as bomb proof. The Championship is the most trigger happy league in football for managers. Most managers at this level would jump at the chance for the biggest budget possible because they could well be sacked by October.

Good piece on Norwich in today’s Times. A combination of cut price/free foreigners and academy players. Must be a terrible flex!

Considering one of Scotland's biggest clubs Aberdeen lost their star striker to Salford City, he'd have to take a serious wage cut...

‘Paul has recently been observing Brazil’s training sessions’ SFA’s press release, sorted!

You reckon? I think it’s 100% an SFA type of appointment. I mean McLeish!

At least the Champions League and World Cup are resolving them quickly. You just know it will be 10 minutes stoppage time a half with our authorities involved.
