47er Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Anyone know when Agnew/Shaw contracts are up as a matter of interest? If its soon, Venkys might think its easier to just not renew them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark1875 Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 From this, did they prove the authenticity willingly or through their bungling attempts to belittle you? Through their bungling attempts at belittling us, they tried to tell us the Blackburn Rovers disclaimer would be on the email and that it has clearly been removed prior to us receiving it, i stated that since this came from a private address and not a Rovers one, then it wouldn't, she then confirmed that as she also has a copy of the original in front of her, she can confirm it does! I said thank you for authenticating they are genuine then The only way she will have a disclaimer on hers, is if it was forwarded to her by a club employee, then there's will be on it! Very unprofessional and misinformed. Following her further emails at midnight, which were threatening and rather sad regarding how many cases the company have been involved in over 15 years last night, she was told very clearly that they are now taking the form of harassment and we won't be responding until we have an official request from a solicitor and not a PR company. We are not the first people she/they have acted in this manner towards. I mean emails at midnight? anyone would think they are worried or something. Portugal is part of the EU As for the PR company, can we not name and shame? The Raos, agents and idiotic Preston @#/? pots have turned the laughing stock which Kean left us, into a complete farce. You can if you want to....... P.S you have a PM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T4E Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 So you would prefer that they work on covering up the shambles behind the scenes rather than maybe advising the owners not to - for example- lie to fans via the website. No - I don't care what they do - you would just think a decent PR company would be dealing with the problem at source rather than threatening fans. Who cares what they do or don''t do? Surely our interests as FANS are completely different? Whose side are you on exactly? What are you talking about? All I said was the PR company should look at the internals rather than wasting time on threats. I care what they do - if they could stop all the people that own and run the club from doing stupid stuff all the time we might have a better chance of being a successful football club.

philipl Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Absolutely right response Mark. Show you will not be bullied by these sorts of tactics. Midnight emails are a typical bully's tactics. Deeply worried bullies at that. They are on the run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T4E Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Are board members on contracts like that? I don't recall Williams ever getting a 2 year contract extension??!! With people like JW it would just be a basic severance pay issue? So written in to his contract of employment, which itself doesn't have a fixed end date. Goes hand in hand with the usual notice period for a person of that level. Midnight emails are a typical bully's tactics. Deeply worried bullies at that. They are on the run. That's a fair point. Are they working round the clock to monitor this place and the BRAG site? There must be, as you like to put it, some really really smelly stuff yet to come.

pedebumchin Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 For those still wondering about the PR Company and who they are. It was reported in the LT in January of this year. http://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/football/blackburn_rovers/news/10159360.Venky___s_hire_PR_firm_to_improve_image/ Unless they have changed PR company again, of course.

J*B Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 It doesn't take a genius to work out which posts on here are directed at long term members and BRFC fans, and which posts are practically emails directed at certain companies, agencies and individuals. For that reason alone, we can be sure that this site, certain twitter feeds and other rovers websites are being monitored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Getting a bit tasty in here, isn't it? Well played BRAG people, I have not really been a supporter, but credit where it's due. They are worried, it shows quite clearly. And the fact that they are speaks volumes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Backroom Mike E Posted April 19, 2013 Backroom Share Posted April 19, 2013 Hell, I thought we were being cagey about accusations by calling them 'The Sports PR Company'. It just turns out they are bullies with little imagination. No wonder they're @#/?-poor at PR, especially when the best they can do is shake their fists at BRAG. I suggest they bugger off and 'shake their fists' in another 'downstairs' manner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OJRovers Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 How much are the club paying these PR jokers? Let's look at the last two weeks of BRFC in the media: - Venkys being called 'The North Korea of football owners' - Numerous articles ridiculing Venky's and BRFC - Quotes from the Judge saying how much of a shambles the club is - LIES on the Rovers.co.uk website - Rhodes wanted 'on the cheap' by West Ham - Emails leaked - Agnew making things worse in his LT interview by dodging every question They probably won't put this job on their list of achievements...

Surely a Fleming / Sox season review is in order Hi Ricky, I was only speaking to Bob in Blues a few weeks ago. Admittedly I'd had a few pints but I'm sure he said how much he was looking forward to doing a season review on his own. So I wouldn't want to spoil it for him. Anyway, you've gone off-topic, the mods will be after you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
