Rovers reserves will I understand be playing their home games at the LSV next season.

That'll pack em in!

I thought Man Ure where understood to have signed a 5 year deal?

Only time they will get more than 100 is against United, Liverpool and possibly Bolton.





They've chosen to stay at Altrincham.

IIRC Rovers occasionally get 500 up for reserve games. Thats what the ex wife tells me when she's taking the pi** out of our attendences anyway

doesn't matter if its 100 or 10.000 itsv all extra revenue

But would it be cost effective to open the ground for such a small attendance? I'll stick my neck on the line here and suggest Leigh RL reserves get higher attendances than t'Roverrrrs reserrrrves

Does matter from an LSV point of view, as long as Blackburn are paying to open it?

I suppose Rovers would be paying a fixed fee for say 14 games + and percentage of the gate receipts so the LSV won't lose out.

Obviously or they wouldn't be there.

But do the LSV realise just how poorly supported reserve team football is?

We have had Everton for years an simply open sourth stand (one with tunnel). Therfore only cost of staff for that, and then for games that get billed big, Reserve semi's against Liverpool for example open up the rest then!



I didn't think Leigh footy 1st team got 500 never mind reserves!
