Whichever way you look at what has happened this season at our club, if we do survive, will we have learned our lessons and will ensure it doesn’t happen again, or will we still be fed a load of nonsense about changes in tax laws meaning the owners can’t send any funds, which in reality means a court rule that they are a bunch of con men.

An Outsider’s View of Rovers History
lraC replied to 4,000 Holes's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Me too. Mods, is there an issue? -
Spot on and then all is swept under the carpet, as they expect us to rock up and buy our season tickets, only to suffer more of the same.
-
I strongly suspect it was due to a clash of personalities between him and JDT but to loan him (and Buckley for that matter) to our direct rivals, is nothing short of pathetic. I know we will never be able to prove it and it probably didn't happen, but imagine that a small part played by Buckley helped secure a point or even 3 for Sheffield Wednesday and that sends us down.

The long awaited follow up to I threw a snowball at Madame Desai? -
John Eustace - our head coach
lraC replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Agreed. I can't listen and haven't listened to a single press conference, he has had, since his appointment. After listening to JDT and his approach to calling people like Waggott out, I will explode inside, when he says what he does and makes out everything is fine and dandy. Granted like you say, he has to provide soundbites, but for now, until of if he proves himself worthy of managing Blackburn Rovers, I have no intention of listening to it. -

I have been told that there is a strong possibility that Watson Ramsbottom Solicitors will be replacing Totally Wicked next season. -
Venky’s, HMRC…The Plot Thickens ?
lraC replied to tomphil's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I don’t think selling it gets rid of the problem. The reason for the court hearings to obtain permission to send funds is down to them being found to have sent money illegally. They stated that the house purchase was a payment to fund the club and it was diverted to buy the house and also fund the Canadian singer. Hopefully they will be prevented from sending any further funds, which in turn means the accountants can’t put the statement into the accounts and we are therefore trading insolvent. -

What did it for me more than anything else was him stating that the Millwall and Plymouth games, were not must win. Had JDT been asked the same question, his answer would have been something like, of course, every game we play is must win. Eustace is a loser end of and a huge step back for us. -

The Summer Transfer Window (Press Submit)

In an ice cream shop. -
I think a large percentage of the posters on here and the wider Rovers supporters, know only too well that it was pulled, due to the cost. The line it was an admin error, especially after last years fiasco, has made us an even bigger laughing stock, if that was possible.
-
You are absolutely right and I am sure she can do the job, possibly as well if not better than Sylvester. The problem is as we all know, it is people above who are causing the real problems, yet they remain in place and unscathed, while the whole thing crashes and burns.
-
This is where the fans have to vote with their feet. I implore anyone considering renewing, if the prices are not reduced by at least 20% need to lobby Waggott instead of blindly renewing. If enough simply say, my maximum price is £x so I will not renew at your price, he will have to do something about it. Everyone needs to stick together for the longer term good of the club and not the shot term good of this clown.
-
It won't happen again, HONEST.
-
I think this needs immediately bringing to the attention of Waggott and maybe some pressure form the various groups, especially given how much has come in from recent transfer, which unless I am very mistaken, if way above what PNE have received. Don't renew, don't be taken for a ride, by these people anymore.
-
My best guess is that MaGuire is suing them and that why they can't talk about it. I may be wrong, but can't see how it would take so long to investigate. Assuming I am correct, they don't want to say what really happened and hang themselves, if it makes it to court.
-
Did he say when he will be able to talk about it, or is it a way of sweeping it under the carpet forever?
-
The reason it won't affect the transfer window, is that it will be sales only. We were told that the McGuire deal was down to an error and now it is being investigated internally, so can't be discussed. I tend to read between the lines with things coming out of Ewood and think most of the time, it is pretty much nonsense and what they think the fans want to hear.
-
Our fabulous owners, who get an unfair bad press, just because of making illegal payments and now have to go to court for permission to fulfill their obligations. Humble people who have just been badly advised. My heart bleeds.
-
Hope he gets jailed for that. No place in society for scum like that let alone football. At 44 you would think he would know better, but clearly not.

It says in the fans forum minutes, the court hearing doesn’t affect the club. -
