The theme here, Wednesday's most effective boycott was a night game on TV, same with Leicester last night. The Sheffield Wednesday rearranged game should have been the one targeted by the coalition, a game only being played because of this regimes lack of investment. A Saturday 3pm game was the wrong choice, and just won't work, in my opinion.

Alebiosu has been our main outlet so far and is sorely missed, so I hope we wait until the summer before letting him go. But (the biggest of ifs) if we can replace him with a fairly solid youngster on loan full of running, and a striker that knows where the net is, then we might not be worse off. We desperately need some pace combined with skill in our team.

I can see £5M + a loan of a young right back (someone like Roman Dixon if its Everton, we wont pay the wages for a Nathen Patterson who I have seen some mention) from wherever buys him being enough for our idiots to sell

They're probably trying to get an auction going for Gueye, with the current highest bidder a lot lower than they had hoped for. Plus goalposts move quickly in the transfer market when you see what other clubs are asking for their players. I think if we're offered £5m for Alebiosu then we'll sell and try another cheap option at RWB plus strengthen the forward line. I don't know the ins and outs of negotiating but I would be pretty annoyed if we end up paying Barnsley what they want. I think most on here agree that we could've spent the £7m we spent on Brereton a lot more wisely than we did. But that was the era of the 'marquee signings', and that era is long gone it seems.

Do you have any pictures or an itemised list of each one?

Watched a very good match day vlogger last night, a Charlton fan, Brazilliance, he was walking around the ground talking about our past, our history and fa cup wins etc and was surprised to hear how much he knew about us albeit usual stats. Even he said we've got a cracking stadium and we shouldn't be dwindling down at the bottom given our history saying that we were playing at Ewood park before Charlton was ever born. Things like that make you stop amd think why us? Why is a historic club were we are 😩

I did have - digitised most of them now though & long since thrown away…

That cant be the case, we keep getting told that planning & homework have all been done and we are ready to get all of our business done before midday on Friday this week (so they can be registered in time to play v Hull *) 😉 * ideally you would want them in sooner so that they could at least have a training session

been injured for most of it

I had been expecting Gueye to be sold almost immediately. Suggests that either the planning for the window was incomplete or everything has gone tits up on the plans they did have. Probably most realistic assessment is things had been planned but those plans are in the bin following the Pasha trip to Pune and we are signing Akron for £3m.

Smodiczs is hardly setting the league alight this year either.

Has anyone got a large collection of old Rovers VHS or DVD's? Anything from season reviews to the 'bring on the clarets' dvd, would like some pictures & stories around how they came about if possible.

EPL rule F.1.8

I've never known anything like our owners. £200m+ in debt. A rotting club (facilities, playing squad). Hated by the fans. Yet it's just a wall of silence from them. Why did we, of all clubs, have to be stuck with such an anomaly?

SO---Barnsley want £4M for their striker, Everton are reported to be offering £4M for Alebiosu. Is there a direct link here? Does the club enjoy being shafted? Are players not not brought in to build a side but to sell for a profit and that's all?

Personally I don’t think an ‘official’ boycott is needed at all, but it’s out there now and if, and I think it is, the point of it is to get visuals and figures into the media as part of an overall campaign, then in my opinion a night game is preferable as the biggest bang for your buck - other club fan groups doing the same obviously pick said games for a reason.

It's about that all the time.

No pissing about at Celtic park, Nancy sacked after 8 games, unlike Ewood Park, Ismael still here with his dismal record.

January 23/24/25 we had a very good shout of promotion/playoffs. The administration of our club ensured we fucked it. January 26, we’re hovering above the relegation zone, and have an even more appalling bunch of dickheds running the club. I have no hope we’ll stay up.

I'm not sure any player has ever impressed me so much on their debut. Maybe Duff, who I distinctly remember thinking 'why the fuck has this lad been sat in the ressies?' Wharton was phenomenal that day against Blackpool, especially for an 18 year old. You knew right then he was going to the top.

REST EVERYONE.

Some fans are not as smart as they think. There aren't many people who can afford to buy Blackburn Rovers and run it as badly as Venky's have, however, there are many that can afford to buy it and run it well. A key fact people overlook.

😢

Nail on the head. Selling Hyam without a replacement that was even close to him undid everything. There are managers that would have resigned because of it.
