Another season with the same old issues but different names.
West Brom's failure to get back to the prem illustrates the championship's financial haves and have nots perfectly. Who cud a thowt Luton would be pinching West Brom's best players just a few months ago? I find it quite poetic given I was at Ewood watching Jeff Astle seal our div one fate back in April 66 with a shot rifled past Fred Else in front of the wba faithful in the darwen end. Poor old Jeff was cock a hoop at snatching both points back then but has since famously succumbed to dementure.
With modi suddenly coming out as a dingle and robbing us of the necessary bunce to sign jdt's targets along with our small crowds we are definitely back amongst the "have nots".
A horrendous chain of events caused by lady luck deserting us in April now sees us amongst the relegation favourites to league one when Instead we could have been relegation certs from the prem but with our financial woes consigned to the history books. Life as a rovers fan eh?
