What I would say is the sentiments of that thread, even now, I hear in the ground on a regular basis.

You can guarantee most of them will read this board more than they post on there. Has drog been on a recruitment drive on the LT comments section ? Seems to have a few from there, i cannot believe in 2026 after 15 years of that lot i'm still seeing 'naive' and 'bad advice'.

He’s having a bit of an enforced time out, he’ll be back with a bang in a couple of weeks I’m sure

Come to think of it we probably don't have an option That poster who went to the Ismael talk said that Ismail had said Toth and Cantwell had been offered new deals we wouldn't be offering Toth a new deal if he had next year plus a years option Venky Rovers only bother offering new contracts when a player has a year left

It’s about a dozen ex-BRFCS on a loop. (Sure they’ll have a go at me now though I don’t ever recall falling out with any of them, well maybe, the Chadster).

well done promoting division 👍🏻 in the fan base whoever crossed over to the other one

What a strange place over there. Apparently I have special needs and lots of their members would like to do me physical harm. Then someone will use the in trend word "weaponise" again and theh will all be up in arms talking about respecting etc. The double standards currently on show is astonishing. How many members and contributors over there?

He’s posting on there as of yesterday, last page of the thread Mark’s linked. Has he been banned? Normally he gets huffy if asked where he’s been ‘I’ve been on night shift!’

Two other clubs in for him apparently so it’s a non starter. We only sign players when there’s no competition.

Some familiar names on there. Take it Drog is thenodrog formerly of this parish and goozburger was formerly a reasonably regular contributor on here although he had a hissy fit with me at some point as I recall. Who's Old Darwen Blue - how dare he call me a lefty!🤣 I was also wondering where chaddy had gone but those particular posts seem to pre date his most recent posts on here. Maybe he's trying to work out how all the meticulous planning he said we'd done hasnt translated into signings yet.

Who'd have thought that a shirt worn in one random early January Championship game, that ditches the famous blue and white halves and adopts what looks at distance more like a Bolton or PNE kit, hasn't flown off the shelves at £80 a time just after Christmas. Once again...if they were keen on doing a 'special' 150th anniversary kit it should have been revealed and released in the summer and worn all season long, not just in one game. And if they'd put some effort into it then it could have been a big seller. But no, the brains trust decide that we are going to have FOUR different kits for the season, totally unnecessary and only release the anniversary one months AFTER all the others, and crucially AFTER the anniversary events and AFTER Christmas. Beyond imbecilic down at that place.

Indeed. That has always pissed me off...And yet, didn't they have to request advance payment of parachute monies? The whole thing stinks ....like a dead rat under the floorboards!

Lost the plot that place, used to be a hornet’s nest of anti-Venkyism. In reality, just contrarians. As an aside, stand to be corrected, but I thought Barmitzvah Blue was Mike Graham, has he flip-flopped again? (Oh and that’s where the Chadster’s gone 😁. I was wondering why threads were no longer going down rabbit holes).

Abso-bloody-lutely. So what news of these two strikers VI allegedly wants? Im not interested in yarns about loans for young wing backs from Villa or back up keepers until those are sorted.

Not really surprising - I literally wouldn't accept one as a gift. It's an insult. I'd either give it away again or chuck it in the bin. Even if you're not as opposed to it on principle as I am - then there's the price. As with engraving the wrong date on the replica FA Cup it's hard to see how the Club can seemingly get everything SO wrong. Unless they're doing it deliberately to either wind people up and/or drive them away.

Best post on here for a long time.purely for the raw reactions, amd people have finally let their guard down on here. There's a person behind every user name. We've all got lives outside of football. Loved ones, jobs, friends, no spouse, no friends, no job, other hobbies, no hobbies. We're all different but what unites us is that we've all walked a well trodden path by those who passed down their torch and in some instances, passed away leaving loving memories and a core of those memories is Blackburn Rovers, so it isn't just football, it's an intrinsic part of our daily living. It isn't something you can just forget about til next weekend. It's Football, our National Sport to which the world is now flooded with its gigantic presence. Its everywhere on the planet now. Who was at the forefront? Us. Blackburn Rovers amongst a few other old boys. We've been lucky to be able to see us standing at 150 years old. We are so lucky and that's because of the fans. Our families, our friends. It's their history too

I think Toth is a fantastic keeper and unless we are selling Pears, bringing in another keeper is just going to take up a space in the 25 man squad. Other positions are more of a priority.

‘Very, very limited numbers available’ remember… so they’ve sold about 3. Good job they delayed it to flog a dozen or so more of the gold one.

https://roversfans.com/index.php?threads/venkys-is-the-proverbial-about-to-hit-the-fan.1522/page-14 This thread over on the breakaway forum is certainly an alternative view to the one here to say the least.

Ive heard the phrase "I want a Club to be proud of" a number of times from Herbie and others on here recently. I dont think I would even put it that high. Id like to see a Club that is TRYING. Everyone makes mistakes and doesnt get everything right. Nor is there a divine right to success. However if I thought I saw a Club that I thought was once again acting in good faith, TRYING to win football matches, TRYING to be successful and didnt appear to view it's supporters like something they'd just stepped in on the pavement................... Id take that compared to what we have now.

Good to hear. Amidst all this 'painful acceptance' we cannot and must not accept their arrogant silence. We must demand answers,they have a responsibility to communicate.

You can still buy the "exclusive" shirt in every size on the club website. Total cock-up. How are senior people still in jobs at this club.

You didnt bring anyone down with your beautifully written post. I suspect for many the thread has also provided a valuable outlet for a cathartic outpouring of grief.

Thank you to everyone who has engaged with this post. I really didn't intend to bring people down, so I'm sorry if that's the case for anybody. But, not for the first time, I've been reminded of how many passionate and dedicated supporters of this club are here on this site. I've appreciated reading each of your posts on this thread and I hope for you all (as well as, selfishly, for myself!) there appears some light on the horizon through a change in Blackburn Rovers' ownership. Because, for many of us, the club is clearly entwined with so many different aspects of our purpose, families, lives, and history.

Try doing some individual research instead of generic AI which always throws up the easiest to find options first.
