To be fair for as many happy clapping posts there are a lot of posts today highlighting how few shots we have ever had under Ismael regardless of squad quality. Not unanimous sure but I've seen worse. -

Sources in Ireland say Damien is a bit of a volatile character; he made a sudden departure from Shelbourne shortly after winning the title citing various frustrations with how the club was run. I don't think he'd last 5 minutes at Ewood -

There's a few reasons I completely deleted my Facebook account recently. That post only makes me feel more vindicated. It reads like someone who may have started with a post 'in their own voice', then used AI to help them polish it, only to then get annoyed at the end of each paragraph. -

The Facebook happy clappers would be better saying what their eyes are actually seeing on the pitch, rather than indulging in cliches. -
Start with a projector, with anti Venky/anti Pasha slides, delivered from outside the clubs land on to the JW Stand, or any stand. The Sheff Weds version:

Managers don’t resign any more Jim, why would they? Stay put and they’re guaranteed to receive their full contract value. The owners have to sack them. They should sack him because the alternative is relegation. Even if they sack him I’ll have no confidence that they will bring someone better. That’s what 15 years of this lot does to fans. -

wonder if the facebook happy clappers have considered,why would you break up a side that finished 7th and go into "rebuilding mode" surely the logical step would be to invest in 3/4 quality players,keep the ones who got you there and try to get into the play offs the facebook lot really are bunch of simpletons -

Rovers are well and truly in the doldrums at the moment, with confidence up front shot to pieces, confidence in the middle seemingly mired in negativity and showboating, and confidence at the back collapsing with new (and mandatory game time) faces displacing shoe-ins who had been performing well... Even our Talisman (Moses Toth) couldn't keep the floodgates from opening on his return to the fold, despite performing heroics at Ipswich. So a trip to the Swansea.com stadium on a cold tuesday evening holds little scope for optimism for even the most diehard fans of our emasculated club. As others have pointed out, however, Rovers often serve up a surprise when the darkness appears deepest, which means it is not a foregone conclusion that the faithful few will trudge back up the country to a late bed with their tails between their legs and oaths of desperate skullduggery towards the clownpants committee of incompetent morons on their minds. Like many on here, I'm losing the desire to continue having my nose rubbed raw in shit and salt on an ongoing basis, but hey ho - it could be worse... (I'm clearly being ironic here..) Same old, same old.. Swans 2 Rovers Rabble 0 Some signs of salvation... Swans 1 (88, pen) Rovers Recover 1 (Jorgensen 90+2, Shearer style bullet) Send in the Stethescope ... Swans 0 Rovers on Crack Cocaine 4 (Never happening, keep taking the jellies). COYB! FO You Absent VENKY MORONS 😞 DO ONE PASHA - YOU CYNICAL CLUB WRECKING CHAV BEGONE BEELZEBUB BOYSCOUT IN HALF-MAST TROUSERS -

‘It’s a season of transition’ is Venky-poligist bingo up there with ‘’oo else is gonna buy us?’, ‘twenty million’… and the old classic ‘they were badly advised’. -

I would hope not, whoever replaces es Ismael will also be "aligned" & complicit in our further downfall (they would not be employed if they were not) I like Duff, one of my favourite players for Rovers. Him being aligned with the rats currently in charge makes me feel ill -

Being a qualifying member of the old guard I have trouble understanding that position. I want to see my team trying to win games not add value by increasing minutes on the pitch. -

Big if, but if Val was given the boot would good old Damien Duff be a good shout to be the next one in charge? -

Instinct/past experience leads me to suspect Rovers will win one or both of the next two, relieving the pressure and allowing Ismael some breathing space to limp on. It happened a lot during the Kean protest period… the Swans game (funnily enough) springs to mind, as does the Anfield/Old Trafford double header. Coyle too, had the occasional flurry of points to keep the pressure off. The question then will be, has VI and the squad turned a corner, or will a couple of wins or a win/draw paradoxically weaken our chance of staying up as we slump into another run of poor form with games running out. -

Another post written using AI and pasted onto Facebook and a load of rubbish. There is a decent chance of us getting relegated this season, that's not a transition that's a car crash. Was it posted by that 'Freddie' by any chance? King of the Venky Clappers. Does he get free hospitality or something for writing this mince? -

Its this that winds me up the most. Its as if they think Rovers cannot influence thing at all, should they so choose Why is there no thought that maybe, just maybe, we could offer them competitive wages before the tail end of the contracts and then they may stay? - Today

Problem is, our offer of wage contribution will be about 30% of his wages (he is apparently on circa £30K/week), If Ipswich do want to loan him out, they will find plenty of takers offering at least double what Rovers would be prepared to offer -

From the Facebook page. I kid ye not..... Genuine question for rovers ‘fans’ what are your expectations for this season? We’re clearly in a transitional year. This is a rebuild with a largely new squad that needs time to gel, find the right formation, develop patterns of play, and grow together. The aim is to keep this group together and build on it next season. That appears to be the plan. So why do we have a new team in the first place? Because the club had little choice. Players like Travis, Brittain, Hyam, Szmodics and others wanted to move on. That’s football. They’re professionals, and like anyone in employment, they’ll go where the opportunity and pay are better. If they weren’t willing to sign new deals, the club was right to move them on rather than risk losing them for nothing. Given all that, expecting instant success with a brand new squad just isn’t realistic. Last season, when we went to Bramall Lane and missed out on the play-offs by a single point, there was no shortage of support. Tickets were in huge demand and everyone wanted to be there. That’s the easy part. Where was your boycotts then?? Real support is backing the team when things are difficult, during a rebuild, and when results aren’t perfect. This season is about patience, perspective, and getting behind a group that’s still finding its feet. Section of our supporters I actually think are the worst fans in the whole country I know every club has them but I think ours could be worst. So again, what do fans realistically expect this season, knowing where the club is and why? Below was less then 12 months ago, some of you are pathetic and need to pick up your dummies and toys and put them back in the pram….. -

No harm in asking to loan Szmodics back in this window with a wage contribution. -
Painful Acceptance
roversinmyblood replied to Devon Rover's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Great post. I got to this stage last season when VI took over and went on that terrible run of defeats. I was happy with my decision and felt that it was for my own wellbeing. However, we then went on a winning spree and had the chance of the playoffs and I was sucked back in again!! I’m trying to stay positive, but finding it almost impossible to do so because even with the transfer window giving us hope that we could make signings that could change our fate, we just know that the clueless cheapskates who run our club will let us down once again. When we need to spend to prevent us from being relegated they won’t, because they seem to live a world where they don’t believe it’s even a possibility. The next two weeks are going to be crucial for Rover’s future, but I know deep down that they’ll screw it up and we’ll be ultimately relegated. I think that it is Venkies’ plan so that they reduce the funding to £10M pa and then they can truly forget about us. And so, with that in mind I’m preparing myself to “check out”, like Devon Rover, after 63 years of supporting my beloved Rovers through thick and thin. I deserve to be happy based on my own endeavours rather than the efforts of individuals who are only bothered about themselves. I’m getting too old to suffer anymore, I’ll leave that to you younger supporters to carry the burden and the fight to our terrible owners and management. I still live in hope that Venkies might see sense and sell up, but I’ll not hold my breath on that.
