https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/25234748.blackburn-rovers-hold-talks-resolve-star-players-futures/ Looks like we are finally waking up with regards to Travis and Tronstads contracts. The article however, certainly feels like its written to soften the blow of Travis departure. I suspect the club will try and cash in on him, whilst he still has some value to cover some the financial hole they have created.

Travis/Tronstadt----crucial if we are to do anything next season. Not possible we could replace them like for like. Unfortunately I think they're also crucial to Venkys funding plans ( such as they are).

You can't say. They both said are aligned so unless you know something we don't let's stick to their public comments instead of looking for something not there like you are AGAIN? Cut what costs? What are cost that have been cut costs the wage bill is very similar each year? Do you know? Or just more speculation with you? You didn't think we would make any signing before pre season training and guess we did. Wrong here and you hold your hands up and say you were wrong? Nope. Some of us can when we are wrong

Another piece about contracts in the LT. Lots of speculation about being willing to stay but crucially on Travis and seemingly Tronstad, they havent still yet received an actual contract offer. Being in talks, willing to stay, representatives doing this and that, its easy to move away from the fact that theyve either signed a new deal or not.

Thanks, much clearer than the web link then.

Don't worry in another couple of years of managed decline they'll suddenly find the will and ablement to put 2 million quid in for a league 1 promotion push. Except this time we won't have retained a championship squad and wage bill.

To be fair that’s a poor post. 20 people losing their jobs isn’t funny at all

I have been for years. I rarely tell people I’ve just met that I support Rovers. I only hang around because of my grandson. He’s 18 and really keen. He’ll still be here when the Chicken Chokers are history so I don’t want him to lose hope like I have. Once fans go they very rarely come back.

My youngest son got a signed Rovers ball a few years ago. It came with a piece of paper that deciphered all the squiggles.

Given they have explicitly stated any incoming money is not going to be re-invested in the transfer budget, the only answer is as you suggest, to cover day-to-day operations because Venky's can't/won't send us any money. Cutting every budget and neglecting maintenance as well, yet somehow Suhail's salary increases...

A Simply fictional Kit. I will qoute from my Grand Bazaar ( an official club publication) book dated 1895.. "It is to know that the pretty and becoming dress which has caused the Rovers appearance to be admired on every ground in Britain remains the same today as originally chosen,except that the Blue of the quatered jersey is of a lighter shade"

So, the plan is to continue to try to raise working capital to fund the day to day running of the club, by selling off practically anyone who can attract a transfer fee. Hmm.. can anyone else see the folly of such a plan, whereby the bottom of the barrel is all we are taking forward into the new campaign. All the media talk appears to be focused on the likelihood of Rovers losing practically every player who contributed anything meaningful during the last campaign, without any mention of how the club (or manager) intends to replace their contribution. Ladies and gentlemen, there is a technical term for this, in business parlance. It is called a 'Fire Sale', and not meaning to be facetious or adversarial in any way, the Oxford Dictionary definition of this is: a sale of goods remaining after the destruction of commercial premises by fire. a sale of goods or assets at a very low price, typically when the seller is facing bankruptcy. So, I'm just asking, why is Blackburn Rovers holding a fire sale, and what is the plan to rebuild from the resulting ashes? Travis, Brittain, Dolan, Hyam, Tronstadt... Oh deary me. What a mess..

That would make a fantastic banner to be held up on the BBE….

Come on now what am I missing here, why is Keith Andrews amongst the favourites for the Brentford job? 😳

For the record - these were the ideas collected by the focus group…whether anyone progressed them we will find out in due course…🫣

There will be an anniversary shirt…when we had the focus group meeting this was one of the most popular requests…

Excellent performance apart their goal and a couple of sloppy defending from set pieces. Good win. Hope for the same on Sunday

Argentina don't have a single world class player and they've won plenty

As the sources closest to the time make absolutely no mention of white shirts or Maltese crosses then airing on the side of caution would make the most sense and leave it out. Why not just have a blue and white shirt with no badges or sponsorship or anything? Surely that would be the most authentic?

I dont know if they are aligned or not. Point being we cant say for certain either way. We are at the start of the first transfer window, there hasnt been enough to be aligned about. But assuming history repeats itself, and with key players not even being offered new deals or at best being offered ones they havent/wont sign because they arent good enough offers. Presuming we end the window again not getting what we need in the market. Then it is only a matter of time. Its hard to be aligned with such terrible owners desperate to cut costs, their appointed club wrecker lingering in the shadows and a novice playing his own game of football manager. Its amazing how everytime you take for granted that mistakes wont be repeated and this time the regime will power on all in agreement to the betterment of the club.

Ange delivered a trophy. Spurs aren't going to win the league ever so top 4 now is going to only getting harder with Villa and Newcastle joining them to challenge Man City, Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea for those spots

At least there is no impediment. 😂

God that makes miserable reading.

It's does in the email I've received
