Rovers Getting desperate

Postby Vhero » Fri Jan 15, 2010 3:59 pm

Dunno if its worth posting but I just noticed rovers charging £30 for there next 3 home games a really nice offer makes you think they getting desperate for people to come to games.

Fulham - 17th Jan 3pm KO
Wigan - 27th Jan 8pm KO
Hull - 10th Feb 8pm KO

Fat Sams last games aswell most likely.

looks like a great deal if yr a supporter. why shouldn't they be trying to get fans into games. It's their job.

Altho, Sam's style of play certainly isn't upping the entertainment factor for anyone, so you have to practically give the product away i guess if you want more than the core 8K or whatever they pull. Makes sense really.

cheers

Didn't Wigan try this last year and still didn't fill the place?

Part empty Stadia this time of year are quite common. It is always cold and or wet, everyone has spent up over Christmas and been to the "festive" games and seen loads of matches on TV.

There is such a strong argument for a winter break in January. It would help the players and revive everyone's hunger for the game.

That's a good effort by BB.

Big Sam's the best for them, imo.

Great offer by Blackburn that but it is still well overpriced considering the turgid shite you will be watching.

They will get a great response of that and SHOULD fill there stadium!
Blackburn are not a team that should be struggling to fill there stadium. They are a decent team but something has gone wrong!

quite long I'd have thought. hughes would have to swallow a big load of pride and not sure the fans would welcome him. that said he made his name there and they would probably welcome his football over Allardyce's.

There's no comparisson as a spectacle.

Fat Sam is virus on the beautiful game.

£10 a game seems reasonable to me, usually they're £35.

Well, really they are a team who should struggle to fill their stadium, because aside from Burnley, I think they have the smallest population in the premier league.

Add to that the high ethnic population, most of whom couldnt give a shit about football, and those who do for some bizarre reason all seem to support Liverpool. On reflection, I'd actually say they do well to get what they do.

Blackburn are a nice club, a family club, whom I have always admired as being run well, but the big millstone around their neck is that their supporters are mainly part time, having only gotten interested, and subsequently disappeared since the Jack Walker era, and these days are more likely to support United when they are on TV. Still the attendance last night was a fuckin disgrace.

If the fixtures didnt clash with ours, I would happily take the deal up.
