I seem to remember Rothschilds had a hand in our sale somehow?

The S*n once nicknamed Nixon ‘the boss of goss’ 🤮 a nickname that suits him as he peddles gossip rather than breaking stories.

With respect (I agree with you mainly), he didn’t break any of those three stories. He may have been the first person you read mentioning them, but he didn’t break any.

It has been alleged (and it’s believable given the timeframes) that Shane has known about this kind of behaviour from his father the whole time, and it is the main reason he left the company in the mid00s. Apparently he ‘didn’t want to be like, or endorse’ his father.

I think Szmodics would count as ‘with him’ in the roles they each play.

Some were teenagers or didn’t have the money at the time. Some WERE interested and Venkys were favoured (some rightly, some wrongly).

Absolutely. That statement (on Facebook and Instagram) is littered with anti-Venky sentiment. Hopefully materialises vs Wrexham!

In fairness, most replies on the official Rovers facebook page are anti-Venkys.

They literally missed tax payments last year, and are under investigation by India for not paying the appropriate tax there! Some people.

In my time with RT (around 7 years) I knew concretely of 5 interested parties at various points. I knew of around 20 speculated interested parties.

The words ‘if’, ‘suspect’, and ‘I’d wager’ ensure he isn’t.

‘We have finally fulfilled our first promise to Blackburn Rovers! Welcome your new manager, Ronaldinho!’

Open image in new tab. Hold press. ‘Google image search’ (searches for the QR code), open website.

I seriously hope I’m not pissing on anyone’s chips, but did you mean 12 years? Because that would tally with my understanding, rather than just the last year. If true, that’s even better than I thought!

Heard he knows how to beat ‘em off, then spread the play.

Q: Given that the MoU was signed a couple of months after the tax issue, will the club argue they had no obligation to disclose?

Wiki has her down as ‘Sporting lady’s companion’ 🤷‍♂️

I still can’t get my head around them bluffing that they had evidence of theft, and therefore got people to ‘plea bargain’ false accounting. Without any right to charge for any crime! What cunts! The only possible reasons for any of it is cruelty. Is there an argument for corporate manslaughter (or similar) to be levelled after the 4 suicides as a direct result of this bullshit? Although I guess the deceased aren’t owed a duty of care post-termination, the clear determination to pin the blame of innocent subpostmasters certainly is a breach. “Section1. The offence An organisation to which this section applies is guilty of an offence if the way in which its activities are managed or organised— causes a person's death, and amounts to a gross breach of a relevant duty of care owed by the organisation to the deceased. An organisation is guilty of an offence under this section only if the way in which its activities are managed or organised by its senior management is a substantial element in the breach referred to in subsection (1). An organisation that is guilty of corporate manslaughter or corporate homicide is liable on conviction on indictment to a fine.”

Missed this a couple of days ago, but Glynis Johns has died, aged 100. Famously the suffragette mother in the Mary Poppins film, and the singer for whom ‘Send in the Clowns’ was written.

Ryan Nelsen. On a free 🤬

Answered your own question.

So you’re telling me Lenihan, Rothwell, Nyambe, Brereton weren’t any good at the point they left us?

‘Well he would say that wouldn’t he?’

Hardly lying is it? Imo, Travis only looked like a captain during February last year and at no other time. He’s capable but that’s about it imo. He’s one player that I’m happy to ‘replace’ with Garrett (who does the same job and imo marks better without the needless gobbiness at refs) or an incoming. On Ayari, I have no opinion tbh. Bit underwhelmed.
