@brfcsdotcom A village idiot put in charge of recruitment, backed up by a dog food salesman who couldn't give a bone to a dog.

What will season 25/26 be remembered for, from your perspective? 🤔 brfcs.com/articles/you-w…

@JimWilkz23 The highlight of the match was everyone singing Tony Parkes blue and white army . Not ashamed to say but I was a tad emotional at that point . The game highlighted our inadequacy.

The 150th anniversary season of the asterisk. Win 4/23 at home & stay up only by virtue of others’ point deductions No cause for celebration in my book.

@exiledlanc @RoversXtra @reluctantnicko Terrible signing. Makes Tony Finnigan look like Socrates .

@RoversXtra @reluctantnicko Looks like Gestede is still calling the shots. Oh dear!

🚨 | Blackburn Rovers have activated a £2m clause, including add-ons, to sign Moussa Baradji’s signing. Baradji is happy to join after establishing himself. [@reluctantnicko] #BRFC | #Rovers

@RoversXtra @reluctantnicko When will this club ever learn .

@AndyBayes Excellent piece on Tony Parkes . Next Saturday at Ewood will be emotional. Tony was very much adored by all Rovers fans .

My tribute to Tony Parkes. #rovers bbc.co.uk/sport/football…

@WelsbyElton Substandard punditry and commentating I'm afraid Elton . The standard of football isn't much better .

I've lost count of the number of times 'Premier League era' has been mentioned. There were significant Derby games before 1992.

@thebmstand This is an excellent post . All football fans should read this as its true . Many of my friends and family have fallen out with the game and stopped going due to its current state . Football sold its soul when it got into bed with Sky .

As someone on Spirit of Shankly pointed out, this is just the original concept for the Premier League being delivered. The vision was to move football up a couple of social classes, which to me means price out the less wealthy and encourage a "better" class of clientele with more disposable income. They focused only on the vast riches the PL would bring and they were right. However that model only works long term with regeneration of new fans. It works if you are never gonna get relegated because the group of die hards whose loyalty and love for the club could not be quantified on a balance sheet, have already left and they are now doing something else with their match days. Most of them likely realise that it's quite useful getting the time back and similar to when you break up with an ex, there is rarely any going back. Without the diehards, who indoctrinated the next generation into being obsessed with the team, where does the next generation of fans come from? Good luck convincing a young person to spend what little they have left after paying their rent and other increasing costs, to allocate a big chunk of what's left for an overpriced season ticket. Not happening, football is not high on the importance scale when you can watch every game on telly. As for the "better" clientele they attracted, they will abandon ship as quickly as they arrived come any form of hard times. What the clubs are doing right now with ticket price rises is simply ensuring that they have no loyal die hard fanbase left in 10-15 years. These changes will be forever. No more capacity crowds for just playing in the PL, owners will be forced to try and actually win stuff. If they don't, goodbye fans. If they do, those fans will demand they do it again. I'm from an era that did not place expectation on clubs, we just handed over our money and went to football, because that is the way it was. I'm still clinging on but with next year being my 50th watching West Ham and having been banned this season for breaching health and safety, I'm pretty sure it will be my last one. Unless the owners who fucked my club up completely, finally get the message and fuck off back to their mansions. The people who own clubs know the square root of fuck all about the generations of fans who helped build that club to be the thing it was before they demolished everything they inherited. They do not comprehend love or loyalty because in their world, those things are cash transactions. Football as we knew it is on life support, but the owners won't realise until one day they look around that vast stadium and see a handful of fans watching the latest pile of average they decided to serve up. #BSOUT

@GFoxyFowler A thing of great beauty. They don't make them like that anymore.

Look what I found

@BRFC1875_ @1805cam Add kargbo to that list.

@1805cam Can we have him back? Can have Baradji, Tavares and Henriksson

Everyone who cheered Travis coming off there is a stain on the club and I’m so serious

@JimWilkz23 Never understood the lap of the pitch at the end . Final whistle goes I'm off . To be honest I can't even remember when it started. Garns used to applaud from the half way line then off down the tunnel for a well earned smoke and pint . Didn't love him any less.

Why don’t they just get off the park? All this mutual appreciation is fine in its place but I just cannot comprehend why players who’ve disgraced themselves want to stage a love/in with the few simpleton fans daft enough to behave similarly.

@NE5westend His autobiography is an excellent read .

There was something unmistakably warm about the way Jack Charlton carried himself when he came back north. He wasn't just a World Cup winner 🏆 he was, in spirit and manner, one of the people. Here he is visiting Warkworth in 1981, the lads come home!

@BRFC1875_ I'd happily drive to Derby and bring him back to Ewood.

why do some derby fans hate Trav? Every time they’re on tele he’s been decent, some fans love a scapegoat.

@BRFC1875_ @MFRFC55 Should be shown the door along with Owen regardless of which division we are in .

@MFRFC55 it needs highlighting how he’s still employed

needs highlighting just how poor Rudy negotiates contracts. An international player will potentially go for free because of a contract which is league 1 level. It’s not all about money it’s about the way they get handled and we see time and time again how bad the club is run.

@ChrisMartin_93 @_ElliottJackson Forshaw by a long stretch was our best player .

@_ElliottJackson Thought Forshaw was outstanding again tbf

A slog going forward but Rovers are much harder to beat. That might be enough. Solid scores across the board. Baradji probably the best outfielder but Toth's save was phenomenal. #Rovers🌹 lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/25998477…

@superatko22 What was the atmosphere like amongst the players for Kenny's first training session.

📣 #AskAtko 📣 I’m currently working on something very exciting that I can’t wait to tell you about. As part of it, I would like to answer your questions about my career and life as a footballer. So, ask me anything below! 👇 #Rovers #Wolves #DRFC #Salop

@MikeyDelap Can't believe we paid 2 million for Tavares. He's a pound shop Tony Finnigan. Gestede and Owen should be sacked for the utter dross they've signed .

@cgreen1995 Easily better than the one we paid £2m for in the summer….

We keep saying “Adam Forshaw being one of our best players is a damning indictment of the rest of the squad”. Whilst that’s a valid argument, it shouldn’t take away from what is a lovely story of a maligned, written off midfielder having an Indian summer he very much deserves.

@JimWilkz23 When I first started watching football In the late 70s early 80s Keegan was a mega star . Remember him coming to Ewood with Newcastle and being in awe . Such a shame he was injured for the world Cup in 82.

Toshack & Keegan both with crosses to bear. If you were my age no matter who you supported there was no way you could be other than lost in complete awe and admiration of them. I remember Toshack playing for Cardiff at Ewood. Keegan much later. But what a duo.

@RoversXtra No

Would you like to see Rovers activate their option to buy Moussa Baradji this summer? 💬🇲🇱 #BRFC | #Rovers

@BRFC1875_ @dcfcofficial We have to endure Baradji steal a living. We have missed Trav good luck to him.

@dcfcofficial roper skipper, hopefully carries that on cause trust me he’s a good player and will give everything.
