Imagine... You're a flash Indian businessman well known around Pune. Your family run business is one of the biggest poultry producers in Asia. People respect your family and the work you do around India. People know of your wealth and status in India. You boast the likes of Akon, Salman Khan (Bollywood), Ronaldinho and others among your friendship group. You try to throw the biggest and best parties in India every year, with as many 'big' names invited as possible. But then...you have to cancel a Sky Sports subscription at a sports bar connected to the football club you own in a small town in Lancashire. Makes sense. If any of the Rao's are reading this, get a f#@king grip and get Pasha out! This is embarrassing.

This feels simultaneously a minor thing but a new low at the same time, not even willing to stump up a few thousand Without passing it on to the fans You’d not expect it of a non league club never mind us

Thats it. They aim no higher than keeping the club in existence. What level it's competing at matters not a jot.

No it was sometime between 1970 and 1976 It might have been just before we signed John McNamee .

Which is why continuing (even now in 2025) to make statements about the club being not for sale is so baffling 🙄 I notice it was Pasha making this statement, but assume Venkys are aware in some capacity. What gives? It's not like keeping us is doing their reputation or finances any good (should we be suspecting fowl play here? 🐔)

The great Willie Donachie is presently living down the road from me. He goes to see his wife who is in a home with advanced dementia every day. Every day she does not recognise him but asks to go home with him. He leaves in tears every time. So so sad.

Not sure if I believe that, and not even sure if that would be legal in the first place.

Maybe Pasha just advises/dictates which ones "are ready", seeing as he is "responsible for the academy"

I've always thought the best plan of action is trying to get some kind of traction in the Indian media, although I'm sure it's nigh on impossible. Indian farmers have been struggling and protesting for a number of years, with Venkys a huge proponent of contracting farming. I wonder if the regular person in India is aware they've spunked £200m over 15 years on a failed sporting project in England, all whilst they're scrapping the barrel to survive? It would be horrible to see Joe public in India go against the Venksters.

Strange that he doesnt considering these stupid targets for bringing kids through, ready or not.

Everyone in England knew he was a fraud I guess rangers didn't get the memo

Always been the case, otherwise the LT would have square root of naff all in terms of content. We used to know someone on the LT years ago who said if they were stuck for a few column inches to fill they'd put in a story about a chip pan fire. Times are a lot more serious now though than back in Williams' day - the very future of the Club is at risk. We need the LT to stand up and question forensically what's going on not have a tame lap dog like Jackson blow smoke up their arse. If they did go on collision course with the Club we might see a bit of improvement in things but even if not Im sure they'd gain a lot more readers or subscribers than they would with us having to read bollox about the market being "difficult" or suchlike.

Not confirmed by club but looks as though Mafoumbi has gone by looking at his socials

It does look like it would take miracle for him to still be employed by the time Christmas comes around, What a shame for the lego haired twonk

And their market cap is down about 70%

i suppose he was,in the end it cost him his job,in all honesty he had 5 years and time ran out on him,was the right decision to let him go,mackay was a better manager as well

martin will end up floating in the clyde if he carries on like this,it can get vicious up in glasgow in they don`t take to you🙂

Someone post a few dodgy sticks over to this address please: Shadow man, Ewood Park, The filthy, neglected stadium in Blackburn, BB2 4JF As Matty says you’d almost question it if it was your local non-league club / clubhouse. It’s the bloody Blues Bar in Ewood Park, have some pride you useless shower

I can not see past more of the same as long as we can not score goals we are not going to win games. Hull win with 2 assists by Rovers

I wasn't a fan of Saxton tbh he was way too loyal to players who were past their best.

Sounds about right.

If it is £15 extra every time you want to go into Jack's - can you imagine any Pub saying "Yep it's £15" if you want to be in here at any point when the game's on" "But dont worry - we'll chuck in a few sandwiches at half time!" They wouldn't remain in business 2 mins.

Watching Rangers currently shitting the bed on Prime 3-0 behind at home to Brugge inside 20 mins in Champs league qualifier,the defending has been comical.Taxi for Martin before xmas the way he's started the season up there.

I wondered, seems kike you went cold on Williams after your tenure as fans scribe. If you were treated like that, not even being told your services were no konger needed, I can't blame you. So safe to say, and I do not know how far back it goes, but Rovers have the LET in their pocket.

I have often suspected that, in that case if it is true the sniwball should have been a half Nori
