Don’t worry about it, there is no sense of injustice or a feeling of we are being hard done by for the fanbase, fully deserved relegation.
Blackburn are a weird side. Seem to be a technically proficient, keep the ball and pass fairly well, but then have absolutely no backbone, very easy to play against when they don't have the ball.
I think that's probably us down now. Even two wins against Huddersfield and Norwich might not be enough as we'd have to hope Plymouth get dragged into it and I don't think that's happening. Complete reset for Mowbray (if he's well enough to come back) in League One. Oh, the joy..
Cheer up , you may get the chance to take in the delights of Holker Street next season if Barrow get up through the play offs which will teach your idiotic owners a thing or two as not to tamper with a manager & coaching staff with a team playing a good balance of football who were at the time in the top 6 . You'll be next season's Derby or last season's Sheff Weds or the season before's Sunderland as in being seen like a Cup Final for all the smaller clubs / fanbases like Posh etc...if you do get relegated , 4,000 Bluenoses on an away day pays the bills for some .
I don't even get them! However, a lot has happened over the season off the pitch and we've been firefighting cashflow issues. The lack of investment in the squad over a few windows now (and painful transfer owngoals too) is really biting. We didn't replace any of Kaminski, Armstrong or Brereton when they left or Adam Wharton. We let our captain go on loan. Whole club needs a good hard look at itself. We are still in the mire, Coventry and Leicester left to play...
The good news is that I’m coming back to England to live next year so if it’s televised I’ll be the old git in the away end at Barrow.
Had a cracking day with all the old gang yesterday Panj, fundraising for J421, there’ll be a few sore heads this morning. Geoff Horsefield was in attendance, an absolute sound fella.
From a purely selfish point of view, I’d like to see Brum come down. Decent fixtures are few and far between in L1 and that would certainly be one and a decent away day to boot even if it does mean more competition for promotion.
Mystery from the weekend solved, “club captain” Dion Sanderson done for drink driving. If any news story sums up how I feel about this cretinous squad then this is it, just absolutely nothing to feel any affinity toward, out of control bunch of mercenaries. The summer can’t come quick enough so we can free ourselves of this vermin. Whatever division we find ourself in.
I saw Col Lawrence was in the thick of organising it on FB. It’s not like him to need a reason for him and the crew to get bladdered..
He had a great day did Colin, he was saying “we should do this more often” I was there thinking we do it every week!!!
Blackburn will scrape it, can't see Birmingham getting the 4pts needed. Blackburn's GD will be enough unfortunately.
Least we could have a bit of liveliness in the League One section if Brum go down. Just be Brummies and Wrexham fans (if you can get the latters back on the forum )
We were in a place called the Renishaw Miners association? Or something to that effect. We were there for half ten, the gaffer was still in her slippers when we arrived as she didn’t expect us so early!! We had a great day mate, I thought the guy collapsing and all that followed killed the event (excuse the terrible pun), everyone around me agreed the game should have been pulled at that point and replayed, very distressing scenes. However, unbelievably it sounds like he left the stadium alive and recovering. The game for me, lost its significance after that, which is lucky, because from what I remember it was pretty desperate fare, we spent most of the second half in the bar. I like Rotherham though, very friendly town, good people, I’ll quite happily visit again next year should the inevitable happen..
I know Renishaw quite well, used to work near there, never been in the club though. Totally agree it should have been called off, the latest info was that he was still under critical care in hospital but doing well. Kind comments about the town and it's people, makes a change from being called pedos thanks
Looking at the fixtures, it seems to me that it's this Saturday's fixtures at the bottom which will really decided the relegation spots. Because the last day games, I cannot see any of the clubs in the fight getting anything on the last day.
