    Called into box office to pick season tickets up and a guy in queue was saying to the staff that he’d heard from Luke Thomas’s father this morning that the away game against Rovers was definitely postponed

    Box office staff said they hadn’t heard anything as yet

    Not sure how true this is but certainly seemed genuine

    Question is, why would Disco be in the box office queue?

    Well, you know what they say - "if a bloke hears it second hand from someone they don't know in a queue who heard it from Luke Thomas' dad", then it must be true.

    Because he's omnipresent. At the same time, he was spreading transfer rumours in Aldi, reminiscing in the fish market, and signing autographs in Poundland.

    Had a look at 2 of their forums and there is nothing on there regards fears of it being off, but on their club site, upcoming fixtures only shows away fixtures and if you click buy home tickets it malfunctions?
    I blame Barton!

    It better bloody not be. One of the best cities to visit for an away game, if its moved to a Tuesday night because they're too useless to be able to accommodate a thousand away supporters I'll be more than mildly annoyed

    Not true. He relies on the Post Office for deposits and withdrawals.

    I was hoping the story was going to be, that the Brizzle Rozzers have sacked Joey Barton. :rolleyes:

    Is there anything about their inevitable winning the league, which some people on here seem to think is a formality?!
