Right now, I feel we just need to go bust and start again. Do a Rangers, Bury etc. This club is a zombie club, with all sorts of nefarious parasites controlling it. Let it die. I've had enough of being violated by crooks and idiots and want to see something that represents the town of Blackburn and it's people. Something that people can really get behind.

The FA and Premier League are not fit for purpose and should be scrapped. Too many clubs have gone down similar paths as we're seeing in Sheffield Wednesday. Before them we've had Bury, Bolton, Morecambe and countless others taken over by all sorts of scoundrels. Hell, North Korea nearly owned Notts County.

None of the clubs you refer to had their issues from being in the Premier League - which is the most popular football league in the world - so I have no idea why you have dragged them in to it. The FA don't have sufficient jurisdiction - it is the EFL who have the jurisdiction. The new system for the independent regulator provides for more protection for clubs from unsatisfactory owners.

It's all a bunch of corrupt gits who are in charge of football. I got the names wrong but none of them have been willing to adhere to concepts like scrutiny, accountability and integrity. They'd sell their children into slavery for the right price.

 

When will this new regulatory body really going? And will it actually do what football fans want with regards to dodgy owners? Or is it window dressing because a proper body would incur the wrath of UEFA/FIFA for 'outside interference' ?
