Tim Sheens surely won't stick around in the Championship now?!

You're not very popular on the rovers board - hardly surprising after what you posted.
Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?

Why would you want to lose your biggest gate (income) of the season?
SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled. For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all. Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row

We've played them 4 times (including friendlies) a year for 10 seasons. We're bored of it. The fixture no longer attracts the crowds that it used to.
From a business point of view, the benefits to us as a club with Rovers gone far outweigh the revenue we lose from the 1 Rovers home fixture.

think im in a minority, i actually wanted kr to win, they are our rivals! superleague has lost one of its best fixtures next season imo
the only problem was too many fixtures between us, a friendly, two regular season matches and magic, both sets of fans were bored of the games and gates dropped off
no doubt most fc fans will disagree

It's been over done in recent years. More Hull derbies than you can shake a stick at. Admittedly it's the only true derby in the game but it has lost it's edge. Same old same old for the build up. A year or two off won't do it any harm. The fixture will be better for it ultimately.

It was rather cruel in an exquisite sort of way.
