2025 Summer Transfer Thread. π
aletheia replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
As it stands, we do seem to have spent more than got from outgoings this window. Bear with me. I'm discounting the shedloads from Adam etc, sell on fees for Raya etc. Also, the plenty saved on wages. Thus expenditure just this window circa euros 7.732m. Incoming this window circa euros 3.87 euros (assuming for a round number 3m for Brittain). Now they may just be happy to fund this 3.86m gap but with a week to go in the transfer market, and given previous, then to plug the gap it would seem clear that some βassetsβ will leave: Travis? Buckley? Pears? Leaonard? Hyam? Tronstad? But surely too soon. And in case it is not abundantly clear, I think that not reinvesting some of the incoming over the last few years tells you all you need to know about this club. -

Nonsense. More like he knows about plenty of brickbats he has received here and on social media regarding his ability. He knows he is going nowhere. And for the record, I think he is a good pro. Always works hard for the team and any given manager, sometimes looks less than average (cf all the criticism on these boards recently) sometimes produces top finishes. -

For the record, disagree -or at least don't get all the hyperbole about the lad. Time will tell. -

Agreed. Perhaps realised that his mate is going and not much he can do about it so better just get on with it? Body language much better. Needs must I guess for a pro. Shop window too for next year? -
Venkyβs (& Suhail) Out Protest Ideas
aletheia replied to DuffsLeftPeg's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Here's a thought. We get into playoffs but don't go up. What's wrong with the project, we nearly did it. On no money. Pasha and Gestede are great. Let's continue the project. What are you all moaning about. I'm shivering. -

And so... a great win, all agreed (and I do too.) And so, not missing any of the outgoings, incomings an improvement, all an upgrade, all pulling in the right direction. Er, ok, can I get back to you? -

Iβm with dallyduncan (I think it was that poster) and was going to post as such before the game (honest) ie. classic Rovers βlogic suggests a struggle away, but we give them a tonking. Amusing really. These boards were in full blown pessimism of late (and not without reason). Hedges? Shite. Kargbo? Head down, shite. Montgomery? Shite. Tavares? A bit shite, canβt go a full game. Cantwell? Shite, show pony, flatters to deceive. And up we pop today, classic Rovers, they all click and play to their full potential. Long season. Pessimists and optimists will have their days. But no mistaking the shite at the top. Most agree there (although some ignore it and are happy to espouse the club orthodoxy). For the record, Iβm sure you realise, Iβm of the pessimistic slant. Youβve gotta love today but really just a plaster on gangrene. I get it that some can focus on what goes on at matchday and screen out shall we say political machinations (and I can do that too). But the canker is always there for me, always taking the gloss off. Apologies for such churlishness and I certainly donβt underestimate the effort of the lads on the pitch. -

EI about 4.5 hours ago. There's the Ryan Hedges we know. Hendrikson laid it on a plate for him - that's an impressive miss. -

Ok aside from the results π Well, let's see how the transition plays out, how players bed in, time needed for the new project.... ....sorry, lapsed into clubspeak there. -

Disagree but no matter. Against a top side the whole team performed out of their skin for that result. Today, we bossed a poor side with little energy. -

Hyperbole if we win, hyperbole if we lose. π Well done today, one of those performances when several players did what you know they can do on a good day. Away fans deserve it. -

Not making a case either way but his pass for the goal was class. All good players have the ability to stand still in the penalty box and assess options -just what he did for a sweet 2 yard pass to Hedges. -

The Venky Don't Care
aletheia replied to RoyWegerlesLeftToe's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Good posts, thanks. A couple of things: If Suhail goes, what happens? Do we get a similar (useless) replacement? Does it hasten the exit of the Raos? Do the shady agents (allegedly) still remain? Going up was mentioned (as a way to generate money to allow an exit.) Does going down offer similar options?
