I just met some Rover's fans I haven't seen for a few months. I asked them straight out if they would prefer to lose the Championship play-off final (and be in the Championship) or win the Conference play-off final (and be in League 2). They chose to win the Conference final because 'they are winners'. I don't think I need to say any more...
Not to mention the fact that there are still 700 tickets available for their derby game on Saturday, where they will be hoping to get back in to the promotion spots. If they can't sell out for that game...
Wow. I pay pretty much the same price to sit in a brand new stand in the Championship as I would have to pay to stand in a shitty old stand and watch League 2 football.
That's ridiculously expensive. And people complain about our prices!
I agree with everything you say except one point. Luke Varney is a very very good player. I've seen him play a number of times (live and on TV) and he's never failed to look like an extremely good player. I'd say it was a very good signing indeed.
