Mello Yello 2,322 Posted November 3, 2023 I do have some sympathy for the Blackburn support for the crack o' knac kers starting time....but I assume as it's on the telly-box and kick off is at noon, there probably won't be a plethora of away support in attendance....Maybe the same goes for a percentage of our home support? So they'll probably rather than go to Carra will prefer to sit at home or in the boozer to watch t'game.... I predict a less than average 'actually in attendance' for Sunday....There's the excuses in the event of a poor attendance....Hope I'm wrong?..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For the future 81 Posted November 3, 2023 When we play Blackburn Sunday this week and if we lose the fans have every right to boo as to show the club that the fans are not happy. This is my personal opinion I would sack the manager and sporting director and loan or sell those players in January 2024 to make way for players who want to play for our club with honour and pride.

nutty nigel 7,716 Posted November 3, 2023 I think empty armchairs on Sunday would send a strong message that subscribers are not putting up with this anymore. Perhaps watch Farming Diary instead. But remember to record the game in case we win... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Players, managers, owners come and go but true supporters will stick through it. We've seen it much worse than this and you have to endure the bad times to enjoy the good. Most important thing is we stop the rot and get a win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,716 Posted November 4, 2023 I've never understood why people have season tickets and don't want them when we're not winning. There's always been good and bad seasons. But of course there wasn't anywhere near this many season ticket holders when the gates really fluctuated mirroring what was happening on the pitch. When I first went the gates ranged from 12,000 to over 30,000. Over 40,000 for the cup game where I made my debut. The 12,000 were known as 'the hardcore support: The rest 'the fairweather support'. Just lately there's been extremes of seasons. (Just like the weather I guess.) Following Farke's first season coinciding with the end of parachute payments saw a big spike in non-renewals but what followed saw the tickets all sold plus more by Christmas. Nobody had expected Farke's second season which was one of my favourites ever. Maybe a few of these mediocre seasons will see a big drop in STs. But you never know what's around the corner...

Forget the boo's and the after match protests, just don't go, do something else. What a statement it would send out. Alternatively, wouldn’t it be refreshing if certain so called fans just fcuked off and jerked off on their keyboards to some other cause, so that the rest of us could get on with supporting our club. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

canarybubbles 1,989 Posted November 5, 2023 Wouldn't it be refreshing if Webber announced that he is leaving the club as of now, Saturday evening on 5 November? No chance of this happening, of course, because he rather fancies considering to draw his salary. Parasites don't leave their hosts until they've bled them dry.
