But they won’t have it next year. That’s what those fans are telling you. A point you’re missing. You seem ok with that. Fair enough. I am deeply worried about the direction of this club. You have more in common with those boycotting fans than the owners. Remember that. They are asking you to stand with them or else they cannot take it anymore. These people are your neighbours, co workers, friends, drinking partners or whatever. The Venkys are nothing to you. They don’t care about you. Now you can sit here and slag it off all you like but what are YOU gaining from that? You are happy to turn your back on the fans with whom you share so much with but not happy to turn your back on the Venkys, who despise you so much they refuse to step foot in your town. I would start to look at what you’re gaining from all of this before questioning others

you could apply that to any journeyman in the lower leagues,in fact you could probably get someone from the northern premier who would be more effective than those two,both of them well off the standard required

If we had an actual board of directors, proper ones, he'd have been in the 3 games and at least 3 points or your out ages ago.

If we’re still winless after the next two - Hull and Sheff Weds at home - then surely even the likes of Parson and Chaddy need to be admitting that we’re doomed.

‘Decent enough’ was a turn of phrase, gooze. It shows even a good percentage of the remaining attending rump are unhappy and not the ‘venkyclappers’ they (me included) are painted as. The rest of your post is speculative, me/you have no idea who’s out there as you need two to tango, and we don’t know what level of risk a potential buyer would be willing to take on. But even on its own merits today was worth it, there’s still a bit of fight left in the dog.

This is quite hilarious. I'm happy. I want administration. (Although sole credit to Rev for those silly interpretations). As for evidence of who wants to buy us, why are you looking at other clubs? Where's the evidence of who wants to buy us and, more importantly, what would make them more suitable than the current bunch? I'm not being funny - seriously - I would love to know! But I have seen zero evidence to date, and the numbers seem self explanatory about that to me.

O’Riodan was poor today in all respects.

Watford have actually not been in great form lately. Got thrashed 5-1 by Bristol City in the cup, then lost 2-0 at home to Millwall and drew 1-1 at home to Portsmouth. It was a good time to play them, which is probably why we managed a point.

That's experience for you and we desperately need it i'd be starting him from now on.

https://news.sky.com/story/championship-club-preston-north-end-fc-holds-talks-with-chelsea-suitor-13498336 Example one. I could find another 20-30 from other Championship clubs alone from the last 10 years if you need. I keep hoping that eventually the penny will drop that : a) EVERY Championship club loses money - Rovers are not some random outlier b) EVERY Championship club that goes up for sale eventually gets new owners But it seems you are still sticking to the 'nobody would buy us' routine despite all the available evidence suggesting there are plenty of people out there looking at clubs even less attractive than Rovers, such as Preston Nob End.

A few soldiers, 2 artists and a truck load of cadets.

Im struggling to see what point it is you're trying to make. So you think we should say and do nothing until we ACTUALLY end up in administration as opposed to acting beforehand and trying to prevent it happening in the first place?

What were the police figures for Charlton and Oxford? Genuine question not a criticism, I salute anyone who's trying. We're being widely mocked on social media, as expected....

I can find you some footage of Ronaldo doing shit things. It's not about what you do at your worst moments, it's about consistency. Ryan has tons of that.

Not got hotels to shout at or flags to put up?

What has a season ticket holder gained from not going? A pat on the back from a similarly minded fan, great. Pointless, they already have your money.

No, it's just far out of your control

Improvement in performance will, in the end, bring improvement in results. We're still in January.

A draw was comfortably the worst result for us today. Keeps the pressure off VI but doesn't give us much for the relegation battle. A loss, might (although I'm doubtful) have ended Ismaels reign. A win would have given us an obvious boost.

Strewth, he’s back again with who would buy Blackburn Rovers. The same day, confirmed big money investment interest in Preston and we see little old Wrexham scoring two late goals to further cement their credentials for a place at the top table.

Read that story before !

1 point isn't enough. 1 win in 14 isn't enough. Yeah we got better players back but we still didn't really create any kind of attacking play, and it's that that is going to see us down at the end of the season. In isolation sure, the point looks alright on paper. Unfortunately, we're not in a position where "in isolation" draws help us.

I can't believe there are people think that the club dropping 25% of its fan base isn't a big deal. It was an absolutely excellent first step along, what could be, a very long road.

Exactly my thoughts. Hopefully relegation this time means the end of the regime.
