The Lancashire Thread

[Muzzle]

My post was there to pull in bites tbf, this season hasn't finished so it's impossible to predict anything about next year, no one fancied Millwall for a play-off push.

Everyone knew Bolton would be shit though.

Just didn't realise how shit, then again, total outlay on current teamthis season ....Nothing

I reckon you'll survive by the skin of your teeth.

More of the same this summer? or money to play with?

 

[LancashireTrotters]

All depends, owner has said £30 million investment would be enough to see us challenge for a playoff spot. He’s looking for more investors at the moment.

It’s unlikely we’ll spend anyway near that figure though.

 

[mossypne]

Preston
Wigan
Rovers
Bolton

At least we have some more local games next season.

 

[CT70]

Is that your prediction then for the Lancashire mini league, cause it looks about right.

 

[SF_]

Some close ones at least, stoke and wba are decent additions too.

 

[TomPNE94]

Just seen that it's the first time ever that the 4 clubs have been in the same division. Pretty incredible that it hasn’t happened before but I suppose Wigan only became relevant in the 90’s

Most Blackburn fans seem to be fannies but don't hate them or anything, don't consider it a rivalry and don't get any nerves or anticipation for the derby games like I do for Shitpool, or even the Dingles.

Couldn't give a toss about Bolton or Wigan, no more than I would Fulham or Brentford.

Handy to have three close games but I am starting to miss playing the lashers and the inbreds.

Wigan fans are becoming as bad as a few Nobbers for trying to force a rivalry with us now, have absolutely no feeling towards them at all.

Strange, I thought you spent half your childhood going to Deepdale?

Their tin pot "mob" turned up at 9am last sunday outside the macron with their flag, amazing that they picked a time when no one was around, they are trying to generate any rivalry, but they will always be a nothing club

 

[roversfan2001]

Neither true or relevant.

 

[LeylandWhite]

Can't stand the dingles, lashers or plastics.

Not bothered one bit by Wigan or Bolton, just a couple of local games.

Haha Blackburn fans have been obsessed with Wigan all season. Now that we're giving some stick back after your fans and managers wind up attempts all throughout the season backfired miserably, you've thrown your toys out of the pram by trying to turn things around, Blackburn were the ones desperately trying to force a rivalry all season.

Probably more to do with the rest of us being in the Premier League either winning trophies or playing in Europe, whilst you were busy getting your arses handed to you by the likes of Yeovil Town in League One.

Bollocks. Utter bollocks.

 

[roversfan2001]

Can't stand the ... plastics.

Can't stand your own fans?

 

[SMH]

Bollocks. Utter bollocks.

You’re right, it is bollocks. You’ve spent the last half season trying to start a rivalry with Shrewsbury’s fans and keeper instead.

 

[LeylandWhite]

Go on then, how are North End fans plastic?

Soz for not buying our way up the leagues.

25,000 at Wembley was it? Don't even get half that on at Deepdale.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

Fuck me you have just smashed the irony button.

 

[SF_]

Ha, name a club in the country that doesn't get over 20k at Wembley. Families and friends there for a day out.

You come across as a right dumb ass at times.

 

[roversfan2001]

That's my point lads, you call us plastics like we're the only team that has fans that only come for big games.

 

[SoutheySWFC]

No, there's Wolves and Coventry too....

 

[LeylandWhite]

You're called the plastics because all of a sudden people who have never watched a game of football in their lives became a Blackburn fan when you bought the league. People who supported other local teams jumped ship and claimed to be lifelong rovers fans.

Are the Venkys ok again with your fans now by the way?

 

[roversfan2001]

I'm not sure I need a response to that. Look at my picture and my signature. Still Venky's out, that's not changing.

 

[LeylandWhite]

I thought that you lot must have had a change of heart seen as all your fans turned out again last week. Or is it like everybodies been saying all along, that their was no protest, just lots of toys being thrown out of prams?

 

[roversfan2001]

I'm sure it's every week I have to make the same points, gets really boring after a while. The drop in attendances has a very clear reason. The 5k+ gap between our crowds in 1999-2001 and 2012 onwards has one clear reason. Venky's.

 

[LeylandWhite]

It can't be the Venkys though can it, surely if they were so terrible as owners, like your fans claim then the protest would remain in place whether your in with a chance of winning the league or not.
