How long until the end of Venkys?

[ilian22]

As someone who is not British nor lives in England, its quite difficult for myself to follow everything Rovers-related first hand. I try to stay active across different media so I can keep myself familiar with what is important, follow the rumours and get some sense of what’s going on in and around the club.

However, being far away and with Venkys as owners, I really struggle nowadays to fully invest myself in supporting Rovers, which is sad as Rovers have been my number one team for more than 20 years.

In this train of thought, based on everything you know, everything you have heard, and perhaps everything you sense, when do you think the Venkys era will end?

Do you think they will still be here in another 15 years? Or do you believe we will see the end of them sooner, perhaps much sooner?

 

P.S. I’m not sure how to create a poll, or whether a poll would be a good idea, but if the admins think it could work, maybe we could give it a go with a few options.

 

Cheers

is that you pasha?????????

I'm convinced it only ends when they're forced into it. That means financially or legally/logistically they can't carry on with it.

I don't think they'll give it up otherwise. At least not as long as the wicked four continue to control the company. Maybe when control passes elsewhere someone with a brain will cut their losses and leave us alone.

My gut instinct is that they will not be here in 5 years time. Not sure how that is going to happen. I imagine we will be in the lower reaches of League One if they are still here at that point, if they don't exit fairly soon.

I think we may scrape staying up this season but if they stay I think we'll go down next year based on their current operating model. I think being relegated again to League One would be the beginning of the end. The club will take many years to recover if it is relegated again.

They’ll be here forever. After the coming nuclear holocaust it’ll be just them and the cockroaches left alive.

So just them and a much more valuable and intelligent lifeform.

Honestly they’ll go when they decide to, most likely when someone does an audit of all their assets and reminds them they own us.

The worrying thing is they don’t need to sell us nor need us to succeed I imagine it’s just a going concern and an ongoing expense at this point.

They hold onto us for nefarious reasons in my opinion and unless it is wrestled away from them, they will not sell.

Think court case, dubious use of funds, ED in India, seizure of properties and links to agents, who cannot be trusted and that all screams of dodgy dealings. 
There have even been links to an Italian Aristocrat and a third party ownership fund, so all very suspicious.
