There needs to be a club for there to be a team.

Thank god.

you don't have to read them.

But of course a football club is about more than the present team. It represents your town, it’s about its history and heritage that is wrapped up in your own family’s history and heritage. It’s about wanting your own children and grandchildren to follow in your footsteps as you pass the baton on. I’m a ‘diehard’ for all the above, but others seem to struggle to see that players, teams, and yes, even regimes come and go, we are the constant, we are the club and sometimes action to protect the above has to taken because we are diehards, not in spite of it.

Thanks for sharing. I know NBA tickets are expensive as I looked into pre covid and they were too high for me. Lakers NBA tickets are expensive anyway

I'm going to leave the thread now for while and let you guys get on with it. I've posted my views on the issues and why I will be Ewood Park every home game and won't boycott games. That's my choice whilst I fully others who will others choices. @StHelensRoverI ain't a club plant just for the record. I'm just a diehard passionate Rovers supporter and STH who want to support the players and team. Anyway like I said I will leave the thread for a while and let you guys get on with it.

Remember when this club was renowned for how it treated people.

You will still see virtually everything they post thanks to the quotes.

It’s interesting what Elliott Bennett says on this, as it’s happened with other players and probably current ones https://www.facebook.com/share/v/14QpZLD42Yi/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Kettle and pan

There is an ignore option

His hair hangs over his shoulders , tied up with a blue and white band

Those days have gone I’m afraid.

That’s a great kit, probably my favourite. The previous one with the vee neck and short sleeves was a bit cold in winter. A young Eamon Rogers in the background before he let his hair grow.

10/10. He would have been equally good today as a wing back. A Rolls-Royce of a player. I tried to model myself as a full back on Keith.

If Carey knew he had hit it, should he not walk?

10/10

Rhymes better with an "e" on the end of "Shit"!

Hate Venky’s… or.. just fucking despise them…

Stop engaging then when the answers are all the same. Stick to those who want to make it work 👍🏻

What questions have I chosen to ignore and not answer?

I would have been on the Blackburn end

We're Rovers 'til we die, We're Rovers 'til we die, We'll bend over forwards 'n take any Shite, We're Venky Acolytes!

This poster (Chaddy) has possibly posted more than anyone else in this thread. This thread is exclusively about dissatisfaction with the owners and ways which we might be able to protest against them and get them to change their strategy or sell the club. Said poster has no intention of protesting against the owners, no intention of boycotting, has no interest in doing anything which might encourage them to sell. Only under extreme duress from several other posters will they provide any criticism of the owners and it's always brief and minimal. Given all of the above, I can't understand why they constantly post in this thread, other than to try and undermine the overall sentiment which is one of anger and protest. It's a free country - they absolutely have every right to post where they want on the message board, nothing to do with me. I can't understand it though. All they are interested in doing is telling everyone else about how they'll never protest and coming up with as many arguments as possible against anything which anyone suggests. Obfuscation, obstruction and distraction away from any discussion which criticises the owners and suggests solutions. I don't actually think they're a club plant, but some of the views and behaviour on here is as close as you could get to one. I have nothing personal against said poster. I'm sure they're a nice person IRL, but I have had to mute them for some time because reading some of their views on the club in the last 12 months since I rejoined the board has made me think I'm losing my mind. No one is perfect and no one is right 100% of the time. But I can't find anything I agree on about Rovers with this poster and I find I just need to scroll past everything. Edit - apologies if that is too ad-hominem. I'm not saying the board should be an echo chamber with no disagreement or dissent, but the guy seems to be on a one-man mission in this thread to distract and obfuscate the discussion.

But with our lot it seems to have the opposite effect at home. You could say a huge following away motivates, it did at PNE for us but we'd also won numerous other away fixtures with just the standard followings. At Ewood huge followings often had the opposite effect and got the home fans and team more up for it. Recent seasons though it now tends to go the other way due to our very limited wallflower players. Yet another symptom of this ownership. I actually think Ismael has some balls, even though i think his game management is mostly bad from 60 mins but he's not sending his balls on the pitch he's sending low level brainless squad fillers on.
