  1. Let me answer that. A big fat zero.
  2. Exactly the same as Glen Mullan then? Okay you don’t write blogs, but spend plenty of time on here, telling us all about it, but actually telling us nothing, in reality.
  3. Be careful. Your information could turn into one of them blogs that you don’t believe in. The writer of one blog, also had information from inside the club, including then current players and employees and yet you suggested yesterday, it was pretty much made up.
  4. Some of the threats made to members of this board, were reported to the police. One person was also followed around the stadium, by individuals who were shall we say, of dubious character. Not to mention, money being offered to someone, as an incentive to stop protesting about what was going on and phone calls made (that were recorded) almost pleading to stop being exposed.
  5. Hope you have some evidence of this, otherwise someone might not believe it was true. There could be some subliminal message going round on here right now.
  6. Absolutely. Add a couple of other agencies, such as crescendo and HSH and between them they have done pretty well.
  7. I think we are wasting our time. He has an agenda, so let him get on with it.
  8. The first thing to say, are these are not my claims. Some ex players have gone on record (Michel Solgado) being one to suggest there was suspicious activity going on. There are letters from some of the Rovers directors at the time, asking serious questions of certain people, including questions about cheques being requested and of course the leaked letter from Paul Hunt to the owners. Feel free to class none of that as substantial, as there is plenty of substance there, in my opinion. If you haven’t seen any evidence of it and you want to satisfy your curiosity, read the blog in it’s entirety.
  9. For those who want to believe there were no skeletons in the closet fine. I am sure some people would also like to say that the story still available if you click the link below, is bull, but for the open minded amongst us and especially those who haven’t read it, take a look....http://roversrevisited2.blogspot.com/2016/09/good-money-if-you-can-get-it.html?m=1
  10. There is plenty of evidence that there are skeletons in the closet. Not that I like him, but Allardyce brought some to the surface several times. Glen Mullan brought plenty to the surface too, it’s just that some powerful people, decided to sweep it under the carpet. Look at how the BBC managed to keep a lid on a severe deviant for decades, despite there being plenty of evidence to nail him before his death. Sometimes it is possible, especially with financial clout to cover things up and I can’t help but think, this is the case here.
  11. This how to become a millionaire joke has got to apply to Venky’s. What’s the quickest way to become a millionaire? Become a billionaire and buy a football club!!
  12. It’s a lot isn’t it and you have to wonder, if someone is still getting a nice little earner? The supply of brown envelopes can only cost peanuts, but it’s what stuffed inside them perhaps, that could provide the answers.
  13. This is exactly why Venky’s can never be trusted to do the right thing. Surely they learned that a last minute change of heart, about a manager, was disastrous, after dropping the Warnock appointment in favour of Coyle. Despite this and assuming what people are suggesting about Mowbray, after the Bournemouth game, is correct, why do a similar 180 degree again and keep Mowbray? Its back to this badly advised again and who is advising them, or perhaps making the decisions?
  14. They aren’t going to do this and that’s why they need to go.
  15. I follow that all the time. Have a quick look at the Glazers business and tell me if they would throw money away every year? I suspect they get far more kudos owning them, then VH ever will. It makes no sense throwing this money away every year, despite their wealth. Quick question, if I asked you for £20 per week to feed my dog, as I lost my job, would you do it?
  16. I know a fair bit about business, having run one for at least 20 years. One thing I can point out to them, is a very quick way of adding £20 million, to their profits over night. There is no kudos attached to owning Blackburn Rovers right now, that disappeared about 11 years go. If there is such a word as anti kudos, then that's exactly what they will get, if the club does ever end up in administration or worse and they are in serious danger of doing exactly that.
  17. Dare I suggest it is Venky's who have caused most of this and get rid of them and we are back to a family run harmonious club again. Did you notice how harmonious the home fans were on Saturday at Bloomfield, now that their bad apple has been removed?
  18. And what fun is there in that? Are you happy to see us repeat the cycle of the last 10 years again?
  19. Most fans would settle for that, hence no need for £20 million a year to fund it. Start again and sell the odd diamond every now and again, just like we used to and bring in the odd bargain, now and again too. We were looked up to with envy, by most of the football world, when we had the likes of Howard Kendall and Don Mackay who had us punching above our weight, almost every year.
  20. Spot on and you just need to look back and see what happened in the first 3 years to see a pretty clear picture. If you haven't watched it, have a look at the Al jazeera documentary on only laundering in football, as it doesn't half tell a tale.
  21. It doesn't and we can only hope they do the right thing. Do they want to pump another £20 million in, until we get to the premier league, or call it a day now and cut their losses. We will never get to the premier league under the ownership, it has been far too hap hazzard for far too long and is very unlikely to change. The best analogy is giving the keys back to the lender, as the house the funds are secure against, is sinking into the ground and will eventually be gone. No point in owing £300 million plus on a hole in the ground
  22. I am pretty much of the same opinion.
  23. If you look at what happened, then yes Lambert was a bad appointment. In terms of his ability, we will never know, but from what he said, he was promised certain things, by the person(s) who appointed him and they never materialised. Fair play to him, for sticking to his guns and resigning, so whoever it was who thought they could lie to him, made a very bad choice appointing him. If the end game, is promotion to the premier, which is what was suggested in the post I replied to, then yes Mowbray and Bowyer were too, although I honestly in my heart of hearts, think that Bowyer did a great job. He steadied the ship even more than Mowbray and come the closest to getting us in the top 6 than anyone, since VH racked up.
  24. It is amazing that every single managers appointment for close on 11 years, has been a bad one. It makes you wonder, if there is another reason why these managers are being chosen, like they are from a certain agency for example, or someone else picks them. The law of averages says, they should have got at lease one right by now.
  25. I don't think anyone is looking at their players, or set up with envy, just the owners and decision makers. This very thread tells you how we were turned over, by a club, who had a very dubious owner, until very recently. Was that due to their better players or set up? I would say not, it was because they are now being run better and worked harder than us on the day and in the run up to the match. We simply want to be run correctly and not have a team of chancers, making key decisions and doing nothing but make a Horlicks of those decisions, for over 10 years. Carry on as we are and I would suggest Bolton, Portsmouth and Wigan will also be turning us over on the pitch very soon, not to mention ASFC too, whose owner is the polar opposite of our owners. This situation has been building for over 10 years and I for one am sick of it.
