On a lighter note, Vegan Rovers & "Who've not got no meat pies" are taking this green revolution thing to the masses (well their fans at least).
only reason i could think of in going to nailsworth is blasting my high emmision diesel car up that hill to the ground and leave it ticking over in the car park for as long as i could. wearing a leather jacket in the ground would be compulsory as well as mushy peas the night before and something with plenty of meat and loads of baked beans for breakfast.

- Thread starter mab
- Start date
Other than that it's a very pleasant ground in a beautiful bit of the country ....... and rather to my surprise, the vegan pie at half time wasn't half bad either!
But I suspect MH not open to persuasion here
actually the journey to barrow is quite pleasant going through some beautiful country on the way especially from my side of the hill going through kirby lonsdale etc. been there before the vegan takeover but would never be persuaded to join their eating habits. when they cater for me as they wish to be catered for themselves i,ll start giving these veggies and vegans some slack.
Interesting snippet on the price of football about Saturday,s opponents Ipswich Town who are rumoured to be sold shortly with Marcus Evans prepared to write off some debt, they have apparently lost £700,000 a month on average for the last 10 years that's 84 million on my reckoning and for every £100 pound of revenue they have paid £106 in wages. Crazy way to work especially when it ends up in failure, wonder if the great teams under Robson were built with such debt. If these are the so called big clubs we are trying to compete with on the field we are winning the balancing of the books and doing quite well at beating them on the pitch as well, the Stanley way is the right way.
Another big slice of money will be paid to Lambert who leaves by mutual consent after recently signing a 5 year contract canny Scotsman saying he can't see himself working under new owners, great earner for him Ipswich fans get their wish but what a way to run a club.

Great move for Darren. Lives locally no pressure because the assumption is they're going down so if he keeps them up ........
why doesn,t he go to them then. who would want any chairman involved with your club if he was a fan of a local rival. doubt even andy holt would be as popular with stanley no matter what he did if he was a massive blackburn fan.
I've deleted it mate. Got my wires crossed its the Rotherham Chairman I was thinking of.
or if rovers dodgy current run continued to the end of the season he might have got the sack anyway. know he is a bit of a rovers legend but fans as well as owners have short memories.
No mate.
On a significant bonus if he keeps them up but will still be Manager League One if they don't.
Stats for stats sake.
Carvalhal resigned after 131 games - what's the club supposed to do about that ?
Bruce walked after 18 games - what's the club supposed to do about that ?
Pulis walked after 10 games - when he realised he's took the wrong job.
Monk got 58 games
Luhukay 48.
Are you mistaking them for Watford ?
He might have been popular as a player but have it on good authority that there's been some unrest amongst their current players in last few weeks & some are happy that he's gone
