    Even if we believe the badly-advised narrative, their first idea was to fix it with a bloke called Shebby Singh.

    There are numerous stories as to the family's giddiness in the earlier years when they were frequenting the area. You also don't have to go back too far to see more examples of stupidity, either. Our defence was in blatant need of investment as soon as we were promoted from League One, and yet they sanction around £14m to be spent solely on strikers in the space of a year.

    Rovers is just a cosy play area for them to bugger about in and gives cushy jobs to people close to the family, or those who endear themselves with enough time. Ability is a distant second. That's why they're crap owners.

    I fully agree and even to this day, I am pretty certain Venky's do not make all the decisions.

    Strikers are the players who go for big money, backed by two, at big prices and no defenders like you say.

  2. I would be extremely surprised if we don't see a contract extension this year and will also be surprised, if it isn't at least for two further years, taking him to the end of the 2023/24 season.

    I don't say that because he deserves it, but feel as though the venky's have been badly advised line and have now learned their lessons, is as far from the truth as you can get.

    Someone somewhere is still allowing crazy decisions to be made and I think this will just be another one of them.

    People do this all the the time when they downsize their houses to free up equity. But you can only do it once & it’s called downsizing for a reason. 
    Once it is gone it is gone & JW put those covenants in for a reason. Not addressing this point is disingenuous at best.

    After that, it’s a sale and rent back job. Similar to poor old Bury.

    This is not going to end well.

  4. Not many clubs will be in a great position when the current awful situation comes to an end. I dread to think how our finances are going to look and although we can't blame Venky's for that bit, they have put us right on the very edge, with the complete mess they have created over the 9 years at the club.

    Realistically we are going to have to pull at least a couple of unexpected wins out of the bag against the sides above us or in games we would usually embrace a point in.

    I'm talking Leeds, West Brom, Bristol City at home, Brentford, Cardiff and Derby away - tough fixtures. Mid table sides would happily take draws from those - promotion winners need a few wins.

    I take nothing for granted, after our losses to the likes of Charlton and Luton at home. I do think we are capable of beating Derby and Cardiff away and would hope we can win one of the home games, against either West Brom or Leeds. We beat BCFC away, so why not at home too? If we can collect 12 points from those games, I am sure we will make the play offs.
