Minds made up I guess 🙂 And it’s tiring trying to debunk the same old tropes over and over (but it has to be done civilly). So in short, Gooze and Tricky think the boycott was fruitless. Fine. And they plus a variety of voices will continue to peddle the same track. And then there are those who think the boycotts, at the very least have raised awareness of Rao’s disastrous 15 year tenure and will continue to try and shift the narrative to open the eyes of fans, many of whom are oblivious to the continuing ineptitude of the hierarchy at this club. At best, the protests (as they evolve) may succeed in ridding us of the owners. And perhaps the protests in the long run fail, apathy reins, snouts remain in the trough and the circus continues for another decade and a half. Perhaps, just enough don’t care so long as they can watch a game of footy even if it is in a crumbling stadium with a couple of thousand fans.

Why is it not the plan though? Because they refuse to spend the money. Why do they refuse to spend the money? Because they are no longer able or willing to. Probably the latter.

On each occasion you have spoke about what drives fans apart, the reason you have given centres around the actions of boycotting fans or folk who disagree with you. Nowhere in your otherwise well reasoned posts have you ever taken note of just how much anger and vitriol the coalition and boycotting fans have received. Why is that?

everyone in their relevant back offices no doubt start laughing with derision when rovers come with a bid for their players

What a strange reply, you ask me why they won't spend money, then when I answer what they would say, you laugh🤷

For a player the selling Club want £5m for! I mean if the bid was £3m upwards or £3m rising to a max £5m with add ons then you still might not land the player but at least it would come into the category of being a serious offer rather than taking the piss.

palace are selling their assets quicker than venkys🙂,surely adam will be next through the exit door,expect liverpool,arsenal and city to be circling imo

Wharton sent off on another bad day for Palace who appear to be in freefall. Are they going to do a Leicester and drop down the league in the relegation battle Hopefully

You've done that thing again........... Lol. That's not an answer to the question I asked whether you say it or they say it!

Exactly. But the point M-B was making was they're so rich they won't be starved out and I think they could be because they won't go beyond said ceiling any longer.

What they'd tell you is, that isn't the plan,as well you know.

Isn't there some weird EFL rule whereby they're entitled to 25p in the pound therefore they'd be entitled to expect c£55m?

They’re bored of their hobby & have set a ceiling on spending.

A bit stupid of people to base him off one game. Just because he got sent off doesn’t mean he’s shite.

it was reported as being 6 figures wasn't it? so somewhere south of £1M

Chansiri says “Hi!” 😉

Technical point - but we only end up in Admin if Venky’s decide not to sell, not to fund & the UK directors of the club fear personal liability under insolvency law & to avoid the risk, they therefore call in the administrators. That’s why the departure of SW & a lack of CEO is intriguing. Who would actually do this? Suhail can’t if he isn’t a director. That would be perverse in the extreme, it would mean Venky’s would rather get nothing for the club than even a token bid of £1. I think we can rule out administration for now.

We're clearly all passionate about the Club and how crap the last 15 years has been under venkys, imagine if we all put our heads together for something united 👍🏻 💙🤍

Bloody well hope not. He's still shit even if he's played slightly better since we switched to 3-5-2.

So then, why won't they pay the going rate for established Championship players anymore?

Nope. And still waiting in vain for this "We usually seem to pull out a win when we really need it" type victory. (Although I appreciate you've changed your mind and now only think we'll beat Wednesday 🙂 )

In bottom 3, he needs sacking but we know we aren’t a serious club so he’ll continue to do what he is told by the regime and be the yes man he was appointed to be. Pathetic excuse of a manager.

Oh, I'd wish they'd go tomorrow. If someone has the money and the will to take us on they can step forward this week. They can see the situation, there is literally nothing stopping them making an approach, that's if someone hasn't done so already, and has been turned down.

Don't see it that way whatsoever, but there you go. It may well have worked with other owners, but it's the difference between wanting to and having to.
