So how does venkys reign end then? Or does it not end?

It doesn't end, at least for the foreseeable.

Depending what happens with Brittain, Travis, Tronstad etc we might have one more competitive year at this level.

After that I imagine we'll go down and have stability in the 3rd tier for a few years, without ever finishing in the top 6, then by the time we're into the 2030's we'll be looking at the bottom end of the 3rd tier or possibly even be in the 4th tier.

All while the court case still rumbles on, fanbase dwindles even more, and folk asking "what do they get out of this?".

"what do they get out of this?".

They get something out of it or they wouldn't still be here !

Schadenfreude at the plight of the snowball-throwing fans?

Burying the dirty cash bodies?

Blackburn who? Ie can't remember owning a club 

Plain fucking stupidity, inner because they don't know what to do next, who to trust.

 

If we're really faced with a slow death, then what is the point any more?

 

It might not even be slow. Back to back relegations and we're completely done for
