They should get Bradley Dack and Brereton to leave a voicemail on every number they have doing their best Del Boy and Rodney I remember (although evidently not all that well) answering the call to a recording of Sparky (or was it Sam) asking me to renew my ticket One year that even gave me a squad number via post!

Let’s be honest how many of the 87 were football manager bedroom hopefuls? It was pretty predictable however that it would end up being a mate of Mowbray

At 21 Nyambe had made 97 appearances for us, was a first team regular and earned a new, improved contract. He had 100% established himself and broke through. Still raw; maybe but that wasn’t the point discussed. On Butterworth I remember the last game of the season a couple years back when he and Buckley came on, he looked by far the better prospect then so hopefully he can have a clean run of fitness

Nyambe absolutely had made his mark and broken through at 22, he may be a better player now but he’s currently 23 and has made 153 appearances for us. Not saying Butterworth won’t come good but Nyambe made his debut at 18 and has been a championship (and league 1) regular ever since, you can’t compare the two Edited to add David Raya also made his debut at 19, became the first choice keeper a year or so later then departed for big money at 23 with 98 appearances

I wonder if the kit is still on the roof from Umbro’s genius reveal campaign last season

It’s weird I went to the ewood concourse sale a couple of weeks back and when I was paying heard a chap (who I believe to be Warren Lucy going off his voice) talking to the retail manager saying he’d seen something in the flesh and it was majestic. I assumed he was referring to the kit and a teaser or reveal was imminent but nothing since

At least theirs looks like a Sheffield Wednesday kit though

Johnson off injured

They said a week or two back that they are wearing a temporary kit today

My main interest in this game is seeing this kit that never will be!

I’d love for us to be creative with the community stuff; the recent Eid community thing was a great idea. Would be good to see the club trying to bring the differing cultures together somehow

I can’t see any removed posts in the last few pages? The lads not protected at all although it does feel some people are too quick to jump on anything he posts

Aren’t you both saying the same thing? First £1.75m is ‘tax free’ we get that in full Anything above is ‘Toon Taxed’ at 40% So £10m - £1.75m = £8.25m £8.25m x 60% = £4.95m £4.95m + £1.75m = £6.7m to Rovers I may be reading wrong but feels you are arguing with someone saying the same

Ah yes because of course Mr Nixon is far more concerned with the club making a signing than he is breaking the story Literally such a vague tweet which he can then circle back to the next (first) genuine target with an ‘Aye’

Interesting reply to one tweet about this A name some may be familiar with

On the discussion a couple of pages back, I asked my dad at weekend if he fancied renewing, he said he’d wait to see what the prices were. Wasn’t aware they’d been released, a season ticket holder of decades, even in the digital age we should be sure that every potential customer is reached

I think we’ll likely see it on Thursday or at least some hints at it The Umbro deal ends Wednesday

There’s a sale on the concourse with some great prices on the outgoing umbro stock Got quite a lot for the lad including last seasons away kit for £5 and a rain jacket for a £5 and a walkout top for myself They have some match worn bench jackets for £15, you can even get Ben Bensons

I had a similar comment in response to me about the ‘Rovers Boo Boys’ I said I thought the ewood fans had been patient with him to the extent he’s had quite an easy ride compared to Gallagher etc I remember talk of people giving him grief at Birmingham away (people suggested he was in tears when he came off) but there’s barely been a peep of discontent at home if anything it leant into slightly patronising over praise for simple things.

Superb assist he dragged the defender right out of position then was on the wavelength to flick the 1-2 round the corner into the space he just created

He’s looking like a complete forward here

LT confirmed details are coming out today

Pleased he’s gone but wish him well, gave his all but not been good enough for a long while. Not quite sure why we were in discussions to retain him

Stockport have sold 2000 season tickets already - they are non league

I just love this whole scenario it just makes me smile, I’ve never been overly convinced even when he plays well he seems to rarely make true contact but he’s clearly getting better. All that aside he seems a lovely, goofy lad and this is just a brilliant story and people are embracing it on both continents. CHI CHI CHI LE LE VIVA CHILE! 🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱
