I am pretty confident that the court will deny any further funding. As, I have previously stated, the owners have stated that they are using the funds sent last year, since the requirement for court permission was made, to" protect their investment". I am 100% certain that the court have been made aware that the value of the club is way less than the £200m sent so far and therefore that statement is at best miss leading. There are other things that I am sure they are considering too and with it being a complex web they have spun, it is not in the least bit surprising that the adjournment was to August from an initial date in January. over a seven month gap, for what would have been essential funding had AW not been sold, simply does not stack up. The stack of cards is about to tumble and the latest musings from Elliott Jackson seem to add more weight to that thought.

The bookies have us at 9/2 to go down and I think that's about right as we speak, but come the court hearing, I would expect the odds to drop significantly.

Sounds like you could be the perfect understudy for Leo, if you fancy a move abroad.

Will anyone there be providing updates on here, as I believe there is no stream. I am out of the UK but as always, will be tuning in to see how it is going, so any updates will be appreciated.

I could be wrong, but wonder if he is told what to report on and say at times. There was once an accidental quote left in one of his articles, which said please remove. It was thought that came from the club, hence thinking what i have here.

Sacked form where and what did he say?

I'm out of the country until the 25th, but looking forward to opening them, when I get back.

Let's keep these figures firmly in our thoughts, as there is no excuse, other than the issues with the court hearing, that we have been told, isn't really an issue.

I have just had a look on Rovers TV and as already advised, by previous posters, the international pass it available again next year. It seems strange that the club have not sent E Mails out to people like me, who subscribed last year. I have pasted the details below for those who are abroad and want to watch the games live, that are available. Seasonal Video Pass Watch eligible Blackburn Rovers matches during the 2024/25 Sky Bet Championship season with an 11-month subscription. This pass is only available to those outside the United Kingdom and Ireland.

I have my VPN in place for that very reason and used it when necessary last season. I was travel sick by the end of the season. 🙂 I find the price good value for money for all the home and away games, so will probably renew it again.

Something keeps them coughing up and I have always held the opinion it is due to them having something hidden.

Thanks for that. I think the slight worry is the availability when the game is on Sky, as last season that meant Rovers TV didn’t show it in certain countries. I’m in Spain most of the year, so probably need to check out how many games I can get before buying it.

Just done this and can highly recommend it.

The interesting thing here is what they have told the court. They have stated that if they are prevented from sending further funds, then it means they can no longer protect their investment. Hopefully the court and the Indian authorities will see through that and perhaps, the fact that they have stated that already and funded a bond that will be seized, if what they have stated is not correct could be their tipping point. They can hardly say they are protecting and investment, when all it does is swallow up the funds they put in and produce a negative return.

I do agree and was meaning that the club reconsider their no comment stance, rather than reinstating any players they have let going. Despite no clear announcement about a reduction in funding, it seems pretty clear that this is the case.

Exactly, so he went to those extremes last time, so clearly didn't like it. Step it up again, as anyone who was appeased by the meeting, must surely see, that things are now even worse.

I think the club refusing to comment on it paints a picture here. Hopefully given the backlash, they will reconsider.

I obviously can't vouch for the accuracy of this article, but is does state Blackburn Rovers are set to pay their players £9,000 minimum wage. It could be an increase of course, but does not say, Blackburn Rovers will continue to pay £9,000 so does suggest a change, which seems to be a cut rather than an increase.

I get the club needing to get funds in quickly (sad as that is) but why not get them on sale in March like plenty of other clubs and leave them on sale at the same price, come what may. Some will leave it until the last minute, but surely it is swings and roundabouts, if some funds come in 3 months early.

Hi Dunc, There are a few players stating a few things. I will get them to you.

That song last season, I don't care about Venky's ............... repeat and also add a new verse, I don't care about Waggott. I seem to recall Waggott getting every tetchy when the fans were calling for his head, so this needs ramping up.

According to the Twitter articles, there has been a vast reduction in funding and wages, but yet again, the club statement is muddied.

Plenty of Agents have been on the gravy train. The biggest one of all has fled the scene and become invisible, but is he still lurking in the background somewhere?

I don't think they are actually. He did write about there being no impediment on the owners sending funds and also stated that funds have been requested to bring in players and to run the club for the coming season. He has now stated that the budget is tight, so it conflicts with what has been previously been reported.

Not in a month of Sunday's.
