An interesting listen of a podcast Nick Harris did in 2020 https://audioboom.com/posts/7728459-blackburn-rovers-the-incredible-story-of-the-venky-s-turbulent-ownership

Yeh

Very poor statement, given its had more kick than the match ball I also saw the other day that the engagement guy , can't remember his name, now also has job title commercial manager , surely not?

I think it's in the rules that only the club secretary can formalise the paperwork , this is why they have club secretaries. I don't know how the system works , what it looks like or who uploads what, only that only 1 person under the FA rules has the authority to submit it

I imagine the secretary had a discussion with a number of people and would of been the first aware, who notified who and how it spread around the office is irrelevant. I wasn't there,

I think she was just the messenger tbh

100% I follow all these apart from Dave, what's his twitter handle ?

Pleased and frustrated at the same time, Pleased we've got a new man in as quick as we have, but frustrated we did not do this 3 weeks ago. Its been brewing for weeks in a cat and mouse way, and the fact JDT is close to new job too, suggests it was a test of wits regarding who is liable to pay who off. Would of rather new manager been involved in Transfer window, but it is what it is now. Hopefully he can rally the troops and we can start being hard to beat, I will take 1-0 off Hyam's ass every week if it keeps us up

Don't disagree at all

Was not mentioned in that meeting at all, would of been terrible to say new manager is Eustace, just waiting for JDT To clear desk. I am aware this was very much a done deal a week ago, due to the "In out in out in out" Behaviours of JDT, But this was certainly not stuck on the group that went Wednesday to burden, I think that been massively unfair to all in attendance. I think we could all tell in the meeting that there could be movement, but it was never said he is 100% out the door,

I would not be too sure about that, that axe still swinging

Got visions of Eustace walking around JDT's car with a clipboard , pointing out scratches and dings before accepting the keys, and JDT Awaiting a black cab to pick him up

For me, when someone suggest they want out as per the summer, it ends one way, they usually leave. Football is a results business and you have to pee with the cock your given. JDT opted to send certain players out, and some that have come in its fair to say are no better than those sent out (Buckley and Travis). We had a good run second half of last season. We clearly have financial issues, but despite this half of squad has come through the door. At 95% of clubs, he'd of been sacked for the run of results, I believe he has been somewhat given a free pass, as has the DOF Due to continued circus off the pitch. The circus suits the managers script when results are clearly not there. I guess the proof in the pudding with be if Eustace can get a tune out of the same squad, only at that point will be really know if we are under/over achieving on the pitch. I was always taught , concentrate on the things you can control, not the ones out of your control

Go on I will bite, CIRCA 40k loss in total, confirmed!!! Source not SWAG Before anyone ask!! To recover most the money is success in current climate,

I would say "Opinion" not fact, but given the Coventry CB Arriving Ex Waggott player , Fleck who Waggott signed at Coventry too, and now Eustace, I think reading between the lines the DOF Has now been made irrelevant, and with that the writing is on the wall. My concern though with lets gets some mates in is, with agents etc and money passing hands, I sincerely hope these are with the best intentions and there is no creaming off the top to top pensions up!!!!!

Just this, when you put his signing on fee and wages into the mix, I believe we actually made a loss

Yep, and I would go as far as saying those who allowed him to remain in situ are as culpable if not more. I think the 10 years service probably saved him last time, but this time its got to be au revoir

I think the try before we buy is the only sensible option here, and the board was right to say NO to a purchase

We are in the a world of social media where things are being passed as facts by random and ITK Everywhere, even hashtag ITK. Its gets snow balled all the time, Our local press have not gone to print or on the radio stating we bombed him mid flight, because it did not happen. I try to avoid tbh, putting things out nowadays, I.e Eustace etc, I was aware of this days ago and some trusted people I did let them know by DM. I did chat with someone yesterday and actually made out I did not know to see if they had same name, which they did. Its not worth the hassle, and much better to wait for the announcements

I can't recall tbh, I know I did say he was focusing very much on Maguire and not the wider picture. Just my opinion of course, but we have much wider issues than not signing a player on loan. The more we put Mcquire fiasco in lights the more we dilute the wider and bigger issues at the club. The frustration was there long before we stuck this cherry on top

Guys exiting the building having lost the dressing room, may as well drop some bombs on his way out. Reality is the CEO is top of the food chain and holds accountability for any shit show, Suhail is not a club director and is a consultant

PMSL, I hope they all had the shits

There is certainly question to be asked, why we have one user who can do this and it has to be the secretary, It maybe a FA Rule, I genuinely don't know, but I'm sure one of the groups will pose this question perhaps the Fans forum

Yep, Id not risk it, I'd of been on blower, have you got everything

Please understand, I'm not endorsing what happened, I'm merely reporting with confidence the chain of events, that lead to our proud clubs name again ending up in great bright lights stating "SHIT SHOW"
