Re: Are Rovers tickets too expensive?
 
OK, I accept it's difficult for you to get to a Saturday afternoon match, but what about night matches? You just missed a cracker against Nottingham Forest last week.

As for going on your own, yes, it probably would be boring if you're sat in your little plastic seat in a big impersonal stadium. However, stood on the Clayton End, you'll find the atmosphere is friendly, funny, warm and welcoming.

Next night match - Sept 13th v Wrexham. Give it a try!

This is why more landlords & managers are switching to foreign satalite feeds, the packages start from about £500 per year. "Sky" don't like this, so they're trying to take licensee's to court in order to stop them. It's still a grey area about the legality, but "Sky" (to my knowledge) still haven't had a successful case. The courts are backing licensee's, stating that "Sky" sell the rights to air the games to foreign countries, therefore, whatever the other countries do with the feed is up to them.
