I think he will go for big money. Thankfully we have the one year extension, otherwise I would be worrying, but think it will be £20 million plus, because of this and see January, as the likely point, when we cash in.

The signing was typical really of what we have seen, under these owners. No matter who the manager is and no matter who appears to be the decision maker at Ewood, it always seem to a a front, for crazy things being done. Most have failed, maybe Ben was turn into a successful piece of business, but these owners are certainly gambling, with the very future of our club.

For those not familiar with the Spanish Language, the word for beard is barba, so pretty easy to remember. The Gran Barba ( Great Beard) is a great nickname for him.

That’s the first time I’ve seen that suggestion on here. We aren’t the only club, who have players, whose contracts are being wound down. Getting those types of players in, compensates us for the ones leaving. It is a balancing act.

Is the crowd funding already underway?

Does anyone wish we could wind the clock back about 30 years? How has the beautiful game, ended up so ugly?

I wasn’t there, so assume he simply chose not to applaud the fans. You make a pretty valid point though.

It’s one hell of a way of laundering money is English football, especially the premier league. With each passing week, as I see players negotiating contracts at £26.5 million per year (Ronaldo) and others on £20 million per year, it just totally sickens me. All this will do with Newcastle is attract more greedy mercenary players to the club, who do not care a jot for the club, the fans, the traditions of the club, or even the sport itself. It is totally broken and somehow needs stopping.

Good game after good game then?

Is there no FFP whatsoever on the prem? It seems to go against everything the authorities are trying to stop. Rich owners turning up and pumping millions in.

This is why what Roverite has been told, despite his best efforts, is almost certainly going to be nonsense.

One thing that perhaps needed pointing out when Mowbray defended himself by saying the current team is not like the team in 1995 is perhaps that neither is he at the standard he was when he managed Boro and WBA.

Let me answer that. A big fat zero.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Absolutely. Add a couple of other agencies, such as crescendo and HSH and between them they have done pretty well.

I think we are wasting our time. He has an agenda, so let him get on with it.

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.

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

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.

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!!

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.

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?
