Backroom DE. Posted May 2, 2012 Backroom Posted May 2, 2012 Who knows, maybe they could be persuaded to have another go. Not sure why they'd want a Championship team, but surely they wouldn't even bother setting up a meeting with BKR if they had zero interest?

Not sure why they'd want a Championship team, but surely they wouldn't even bother setting up a meeting with BKR if they had zero interest? I think you are right they have more than zero interest but how much who knows. Going down will of course hurt the chances of selling the club but would also reduce the price. I am not sure how much it would cost the club be relegated for one season? Maybe someone cleverer than myself can work that out.
BangkokRover Posted May 2, 2012 Author Posted May 2, 2012 Could you post some pictures here of your trip? Sure I will try
Brfcrule1 Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Good Luck BKR will either PM or tweet mu thoughts later thanks.
Blackburn Ravers Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Great news, Well done mate, Look forward to hearing how it all goes
Pete1981 Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 Taken from his Twitter BangkokRover @BKKRover Thanks to everyone asking about my trip to Doha but currently I can not talk about it. I know this is very annoying but be patient please
BangkokRover Posted May 7, 2012 Author Posted May 7, 2012 I would just like to say this sort of thing is not my normal day job. I don't work in the worlds of Finance or the Press. Since I started this thread I have called in basically every business favor I could to get a contact names and email addresses at QIA to try and communicate with them. In the hope that I can convince them try again to talk to Venkys again. So I have been talking to 2 of them for around 6 months always by email. Then 3 weeks ago I got a phone from QIA and answered a few questions from them about football and some about Rovers Then last Tuesday I received an email asking me to come and talk to them. Of course I accepted the offer and I visited them on Friday. Now I know this is VERY ANNOYING but as I said at the start I don't normally work in this field. I was asked to sign a Non Disclosure Agreement and I will honor that. I am afraid that is all I can say. I am not saying this is good or bad news, I guess what I am saying is pause. Sorry BKR

Sorry BKR The fact that you were asked to sing an NDA gives me a glimmer of hope. Add to that the fact that you have been in contact with them for six months gives me a little more. Please God, let there be something in this. One last thing BKR, if something comes of this you should be given massive credit.

BrisRover Posted May 7, 2012 Posted May 7, 2012 Perhaps some banners with the letters QIA today might not be out of order. Hopefully the cameras pick this up as an enticer.
Baz Posted May 7, 2012 Posted May 7, 2012 I think you have done marvellously well to even get to speak to them face to face. I just hope that you persuade them enough. If there is anything us fans can do to encourage them, then please let us know.

Lurid Coat Posted May 7, 2012 Posted May 7, 2012 One last thing BKR, if something comes of this you should be given massive credit. He deserves a knighthood and keys to the town if something comes out of this!
Brfcrule1 Posted May 7, 2012 Posted May 7, 2012 Well done BKR you have done exceptionally well to keep in contact with them as stated if there is anything us fans can do let us know and if you are successful this man should be given a knighthood & a statue of BKR next to U.Jack would be in order good luck BKR in trying to persuade them to re-engage with Venkys.
Amo Posted May 7, 2012 Posted May 7, 2012 Their original interest sounded tentative at best. If QIA have the ambition and more importantly the wherewithal to buy Rovers, then it will be so. Money always talks.
