If the case is ever heard again, do we think me turning my mic on and chanting Venkys out would count as contempt of court?? 🤔🧐

The minutes are a matter of record that appear on the club website so it is important they are got right.

sorry Edit, or maybe not.

You seem to know something about me that I don't. I've just checked and I'm still very much a he.

All the fuss goes away about the minutes if those that attend just talk about what was said immediately after the meeting is held on here. It's a simple thing to do and stops all the frustration and conspiracy. Please make it happen.

No. I need to know why holding the meetings with the fans forum means that club is taking the fans for mugs.

*She.

That's what happened aye. It was more that points made needed more detail, so these were agreed and then went back to the club. We're still at that stage.

Plenty give up their time under the radar too and I know only too well that the latest minutes, were not considered to be accurate, by some who attended. I believe this will come out, so that people can make up their own minds.

I popped out for half an hour and now they’re on case number 97!! We seem to have moved onto the supplementary list (which starts with the above number) after lunch. We were listed as number 32 of 83 of the advance list - it appears they gave up on this list at lunch time. Who knows where numbers 84-96 are! I presume the case has been adjourned again but didn’t see/hear that happening.

yep, he needs to know the reason certain people think the fans have been taken for mugs. I have heard it all now.

Ah well. The 175th Anniversary at the Anchor Ground might have a few fireworks set off from the car park.

From what I have been told, the minutes were written very quickly and approved by the club. some of the attendees, did not agree with the original version and questioned them. Are you saying this is not the case, as I have been lied to if this isn't correct.

This is a debate about the effectiveness of the fans forum. What has the above got to do with that ?

Classic, Masher.

1. They ask us to accept that the made mistakes that caused us to mess 3 transfers up. 2. They have lost 3 very good managers in recent years and blamed the manager and not themselves, never accepting responsibility. 3. The let players contracts run down and always blame the players, not once accepting that it could be low balling them 4. They let an agent run the club and sell lots of players and replace them with inferior ones, costing us a place in the top flight and never getting anywhere near retuning. 5. They sack a manager who has us in the top half of the league and replace him, with an under qualified coach, who git us relegated 6. They tell us they will absolutely respect the legacy of Jack Walker 7. They try to sell the training ground and would never have admitted to it, has some fans not uncovered it. 8. They sell our star player a home grown talent, as they have been unable/unwilling to fund the club, through their own underhanded actions, thus putting us in serious financial difficulty. 9. They bring in a bunch of unknown un tested players, including an agent son, who never make a single appearance for the club (referred to as the Portugeezers) 10. They force long serving staff out of the door, with hardly a word of thanks or acknowledgement (David Lowe is one such example) 11. They appoint a global adviser, who turns the club into a laughing stock. (RIP Shebby, as you were well meaning) 12. They send £5m that was supposed to have been used for the club to Canada and cause serious issues with future funding, due to this. 13. Thye fail to maintain the ground adequately. 14. They raise the prices to such a level that they sell a record low number of season tickets and then announce that they will not try to re- engage with these lapsed fans. 15. They constantly have a reset and promise jam tomorrow, that never arrives. 16. They remove all of the historical memorabilia in blues bar and replace it, with their own version. 17. They constantly run out of stock in the club shop 18. They make it difficult for fans to buy tickets at times and force them into a more expensive route if they can. 19. The pay lip service to respecting the history of the club, such as a proper agenda for the upcoming 150th year. 20. They threaten the fans with a ban, if they rebel in the wrong way. There are many more too, but no doubt you will attempt to defend these 20 for now.

Any idea what case number they are up to?

I've never met most of them so you need direct your at people on the fans forum

That game is our remembrance game for our fallen hero's, something completely lost on the club. I believe the 150 celebrations in the main have been diluted as much as possible so they dont have to spend any money in marking the achievement. Cheap and cheerful and milk the supporters where possible,

Chaddy, in your view, do the good people on the fans forum include the Rovers management?

I remember looking at our team under Mowbray and being proud of the British feel and littered with academy products. Felt we at least bucked the trend with that. The academy player streak is a source of pride also. So I’d be very sad to see that go Unfortunately the English premium is killing us. And we can’t keep hold of our best academy players. We need new owners, or we are going to keep finding ourselves in new and unwanted situations

3 months today is the 150th anniversary of the formation of Blackburn Rovers at the St Leger Hotel in town. We should be brimming with excitement and anticipation at this momentous year - yes we should be celebrating the year of our founding not just the day. What do Rovers have planned: - the new much vaunted Rovers museum is to be a few glass display cases to show off the contents on ground tours. - we are to get a 150th Anniversary book but the COO, against the advice of the now departed CEO, wants to have an introduction by the owners which will result in fewer sales. I hope he sees sense. - supporters have formally asked for a Blue Plaque at the site of the St Leger Hotel; WATR even gained permission from the site owners but the Club and council are reluctant as “they get stolen”. Why not think outside of the box and put the plaque a a bit higher and sell plastic replicas in the Club shop? - I am told that the post match fireworks for the game v Derby were booked but have been cancelled due to the cost. - what will be the ticket prices for the Derby game? Will they pitch them at Cat A to ‘milk’ the fans again or will they try and do an offer to entice fans to return. I do worry as to what route the management (sic) will take. - nothing more has been heard of the plans for 3 house gable ends to be painted with scenes celebrating 150 years. - there is a rumour doing the rounds in East Lancashire that Rovers are to order a new TIFO will the images of our illustrious owners. 150 years (sorry 135 years) of a proud Blackburn Rovers deserves celebrating. I worry that it will be a damp squib. Perhaps we should use the Derby game as an opportunity to make our views heard.

Ayala 😉 Look what happened to our results in the spell he was out of the team in the 2nd half of that season Hyam isn't a bad player, he is quite good, but he is not an organiser. So its no surprise that our defence looks more solid when we have a Batth/Fadz/Ayala in there too

I dont think it's right to blame the FF or O2G for the minutes at all. That's was my main point. I think you are wide of the mark here They are several good people on the fans forum and I guarantee they don't get an easy ride at all. Easy to throw mud from the outside. These give up their free time to attend and asked questions to Rovers management

Well, there are certainly some that are wide of the mark 😃. I was in that meeting and this has been blown way out of proportion. This is a delay down to the club. It's frustrating as hell and I in fact chased the completion of the minutes on Sunday with all that attended.
