Sold their 4500 plus tickets 

Can’t believe there’s just 6 points between us & 16th. 4 points from the next 2 before the cup games would be ideal. 6 points & I’ll be giddy.

Didn't know he did private bookings mate.

You off to a HMO protest?

Given we’re now over 26k expected for our game against Bradford tomorrow it’ll be interesting to see how many attend the Nob End v Rovers Championship game tonight. 

4-0 @28/1  & 4-1 @ 25/1

We,ve moved on miles since Sarcevic played for us. He wouldn't get on our bench now so if that tit is their star player, we really should fancy our chances !!

Capacity of Deepdale is less than 23,500, but its suppose to be a sell out.

That's not bad for a Friday night game on Sky.

A drawback of being in the championship is the number of games that get moved for Sky, hopefully we're getting annoyed by that next season.

Playing devil's advocate here, but Randall gets in our starting XI, would he get in Bradford's? 

And who said Sarcevic is their star player?

Randall gets into our starting XL  and i think perhaps about 20 odd people out of 20k agree on your statement.

Tell me a player who starts for us from Bradfords team???

Not bad that though and 5k Rovers fans on a Friday night is a tremendous effort.

Close to what they get at home most weeks  then. Bollocks to Roverrrs.

Yes, its more or less half of the home fans attendance at Ewood.

Just spoke to my Dad - this year is his first season ticket since 78. He sounded like a 8 year old not 80. Not sure he'll sleep tonight!

Sarcevic might not get on our bench, fair enough, but is he having a worse season than Randall so far?  It just seemed a cheap shot at a player having a decent season.

Re who starts for us from Bradford's team, I might have a better idea tomorrow after I've watched them for the first time this year.  But if Randall played for them or anyone else I'd say there's no way he gets in our team.  So its just down to the manager's preference, I'd guess if any of their players was going to get in our team, SS would have already signed them.

Himself 

Think Sarcevic is injured?

Randall shouldn’t be anywhere near this type of game today. Dempsey, erhahon, Morley and macatee ahead of him for this. 

3-1

Burstow, Duberry, Toal

Agreed  Dempsey all day long in the 10 and i do not think Cissoko will fancy it either. Have Forss out wide or have Erhahon in a three in midfield.

Personally, I don’t think he’s fucking about with the formation, it’s just about who goes in which position.

I’m going

                           TSL

Christie.     Toal.    Johnston.  Conway 

                 Sheehan. Simons

                       Dempsey 

   ACD.                                       Tutu

                        Burstow 

Could be Cogley. Could be Cissoko. And could be Forss.

If this Morley rumour is true then it will be because he wants two 8’s in front of Sheehan - Dempsey and Morley.

Fantastic that we have a such options available at the moment.

I do not see why he would put Desmond on the wing with a full squad...The last of Evatts inverted wing back Master Plan

Absolutely spins my nut when people expect players who’ve been out injured for 5 or 6 weeks and not kicked a ball to come back in to a side. Seeing shouts of Erhahon and Gale from a few people 

we have the luxury of a) not having to rush them back and b) players playing well in their absence 

Sheehan has been purring the last few weeks for club and country, then Cissoko feels like he’s turning a corner. 
 

so let them continue and if we can introduce the returning players later on in the game to get them some minutes and build them up fitness wise then great

I would put Tutu before step over Cissoko and Forss before Dempsey; desperado team for me with Forss starting ahead of Dempsey

Because he’s been playing well in that position!

He’s not been a wing back!

And we Know he’ll defend when he has to in that position.

Not sure why it would be viewed negatively if he starts there.
