I disagree with that, as many people go to Ewood for many reasons and the owners are not one of them. We need minor protest sustained over a long period for me, get our plight back in the media, then mass boycotts per games if possible. I speak to lots of people from across the footballing spectrum and the response to me being a Rovers fan is always: ’Are you still owned by the chicken lot’ - Oh yes!!

Which shady dealings are you referring to? An agent was operating out of Brockhall and was bypassing the board on transfer dealings making sure certain agents profited. This is known through the JW letters and the authorities are aware, but have chosen to ignore it. However the agents fees paid are known. It's not new knowledge. The other dodgy dealings are we paid ridiculously high agents fees and only bought players from he same pot. But I'm not sure that's illegal, just badly run. The past rumours which could be unearthed in due diligence due to a a sale are Venkys didn't fully own the club, they were just a proxy, match fixing / betting (highly unlikely and wouldn't show in due diligence) and any evidence of money laundering (highly unlikely).

Every pint, pie and bag of chips purchased by a season ticket holder still helps them. I do not want to hear about sodexo and contracts etc. It all has an effect. Season ticket renewals will be the acid test. Anyone who thinks it is about results is really not paying attention. It is about the systematic slow death of the club. You are nothing special by supporting "through thick and thin".You are essentially a Pasha and Rao enabler. I miss my club, I want it back. I would buy 5 season tickets tomorrow in leauge 2 under new ownership. Taken me a long time to get here. For years I thought I am not letting them take Rovers away from me. They already have whether I go or not. I want us to take the club back by taking Rovers away from them. This will only be done by NAPM. Edited Saturday at 20:01 by speedies gonna get ya. 13 Quote

Keep pushing the NAPM. A protest march soon with a few addedd extras thst I cannot say much about just yet. Also working on a way of current season ticket holders easily contacting club to tell them they will not renew next year. We have considered in ground stuff but it has been tried and failed so many times. No enough will do it if its red card, or dont take seat until 18th min etc. It then gives impression most are satisfied. The press will be our best avenue and we are continuing to make valuable contacts. Proving difficult to get the press attention in India but we have a few ideas.

Upside Down Posted Sunday at 02:05 Posted Sunday at 02:05 The money is clearly very important to the regime. Withdrawing from giving them any is the only way that we as fans can have any power in this situation. Protesting inside or outside of the ground has been proven to be ineffective. Unless folk are willing to take it to the next step and get the games abandoned (something which people are reluctant to do, understandably) then this needs to be knocked on the head. The way the game has been set up we, as fans, hold very little powers when it comes to making decisions for the future of our clubs, heritage, community etc. Withdrawing financial support is the only tool we have.

lraC Posted Sunday at 05:10 Posted Sunday at 05:10 I paid my £140 Rovers TV pass. It would have been easy to just watch it on a fire stick, like many do. For almost all of the season so far, I’ve just sat there with no emotion, even when we have scored. In seasons gone by the furniture is in danger of getting broken and the dog jumps out of his skin, when we score, but I care very little any more. I feel very defeated and hope the posts made above about protest ideas, gain some traction. I think starving them of funds is the only way and would like to know a bit more about the season ticket holder ideas, so wonder if that can be explained a bit more on here. I will not be paying for the Rovers TV pass and will definitely not be going to Ewood when I’m next in the UK as this is not supporting Rovers any more, it’s paying to keep people who I hate, to remain in their positions at the club. 3 Quote
