    Rovers v Stoke: 10th February 2024

    Ps before Al comes on giving me pelters. I know you've supported the club for a long while and you're not well so getting down to Ewood is not easy for you and I appreciate that. But giving up, or falling out with the club you love because of a few knob heads that may be employed by them at the...

    Rovers v Stoke: 10th February 2024

    Stoke brought 3013 out of 15,104 leaving about 12,00 home fans apparently. I often do counts on ticket sales (although I didn't yesterday) and usually have a pretty good idea what the attendance will be. If that official attendance is in any way accurate I would say at least 1,000 ST holders...

    Rovers v Stoke: 10th February 2024

    On a side note, someone is definitely fudging the figures down at Ewood, if there were 15,000 on yesterday I'm a Chinaman. 科伊布

    Venkys: Is the proverbial about to hit the fan?

    I'm an expert on this lads 😀 and while everyone knows I'm very critical of our home support it's also correct that the ground being the size it is really doesn't help. People fawn over the Blackpool fans but if you put 12 or 13 thousand Rovers fans in Bloomfield road each week and 10,000 of the...

    Rovers v Stoke: 10th February 2024

    Get down Al, it'll smell all the sweeter when we're flying to know you stuck with the club through the hard times. Remember CEO'S, players , managers and owners will come and go, we are the only constants and what a football club is identified by. Get down, clear your vocal chords and get...

    Gregg Broughton

    I've had a sneak peak at an interview SW has given with an update on the current financial situation at the club and the main point he stresses is that they are looking to invest a good portion of the A Wharton fee on a new fax machine with push buttons, a copying facility and even an on board...

    JDT - Jon Dahl Tomasson

    Of course we need them to perform BB, there is absolutely nothing wrong with being disappointed or being negative from time to time if, as I've said before, you balance that out with pro active support and a positive mindset when it actually matters, when the players are on the pitch. I'm...

    JDT - Jon Dahl Tomasson

    It's obviously all a bit of a mess at the moment but my over riding feeling is that, generally, way too much is expected of managers these days and they often have very short life spans at clubs due to unrealistic expectations. Rovers fans aren't alone is this by any means, but I can't help...

    Rovers v Huddersfield: 20th January 2024

    Disappointing result but not the worst performance and it's pretty apparent that the confidence among the players is understandably low. I'll stick my neck out and say I'm not really worried about a relegation battle, I believe we have enough to comfortably avoid it.... but we'll see. One thing...

    Rovers v Rotherham: 1st January 2024 😮

    I'm not going to this, I refuse to give my hard earned money when we're losing, as a customer of the club I fully expect to see some returns on my investment. If the club are not going to act and sack this clown of a manager and replace him with someone better then they won't be seeing me again...

    Rovers v Watford - Fans' Takeover

    Another decent performance with nothing to show for it. Young lads that gave their all but seem to get "outstayed" by stronger, more experienced opposition. A Wharton was great and has really hit form recently but special mention for Tronstad who was also very good with and without the ball at...

    The money system

    Of course you're correct ODB, it reminds me of a saying I once heard that went something like "the poorest pauper is happier than the sickest King".

    Rovers v Leeds: 9th December 2023

    Tuesday's an important game Khmere, we really need to win that to keep us comfortably in the top half and keep any baying mobs happy...or at least less suicidal!

    The money system

    PS Goozy, you're 100% right that modern economies are totally built of debt, they'd collapse if they weren't or if someone tried to change that within the current system as it stands. People are brain washed to an extent to keep the basics of the economy, like actually producing things, going...

    The money system

    100% there's an alternative Goozy and it's already started and will gather pace at a rate over the coming decades. Neither of us will be alive when it takes over the current system completely but there'll certainly be noticeable changes in our lifetimes. Of course I'm talking about decentalised...
