Just to say, I thought our fans were fantastic on Sat. Might not have been more than 1200 but it was all you could hear! -

I mean, this issue is probably quite separate and shows the lack of revenue for the club which I think everyone agrees is a huge issue -

I am not saying that wages are not part of the backing but when you look at the stats our wage bill is 11th to 14th in the champ over the last few years. Please correct me if I am wrong! The club of course pays the wage bill and then we are losing 20 mil a year (give or take a few quid), which is then covered by the owners. -

Pretty sure someone posted something on here where we were 14th for net spend without the sale of Armstrong, so I would say no. -

Well, the owners won't get any money from the club as there is no surplus of cash or profit. The loss of cash each has nothing to do with Mowbray and has been a problem long before Venky's. The fact is, revenue is down substantially because we are not in the Prem anymore and the Championship is a massive bubble waiting to burst with very few clubs even turning a profit. -

I would not exactly call 10/12 million quid of signings three/ four years ago a backing, would you? -

Not sure how you work that out and appalling is a very strong statement...but in reality do we think someone else could have done a better job? -

But only one point off the playoffs and 33.3% loss rate ;). I understand frustrations but let us be honest, Mowbray has done a decent job, ok end of last year was not great and not a decent transfer window but I think he is doing the best that he can and I do not think anyone else will come in and do better. I think the club needs to get contracts settled and if they do not, they need to go out and spend. -

When was the last time we did not sign anyone before the first game of the season? -

As much as I would love to be optimistic I just find myself struggling to be. I just had a quick look at tickets available for the game and it looks incredibly empty, I can imagine it being 9k which is just awful. It really actually makes me quite sad. I think the senior members of Blackburn Rovers really need to have a hard look at themselves and see what they are doing at the moment is now working. I think this season is really an unknown, we have lost a lot of players but no one that I will miss massively (apart from Elliot) and we have added no one. It is remarkable that we will through the young lads in and watch them either sink or swim, maybe that is what we need- who knows? I can't make my mind up. The one plus note is that the kits are fantastic but we have still managed to 'Blackburn Rovers' that by having them late and not having them in stock. I had a look online and there is nothing (apart from socks), I think it will be diabolical if there is no shirts available in the Roverstore for people to buy on the opening day of the season. Furthermore, I think this is top down, not providing funds to the manager is completely unacceptable, the club has to work on raising revenue but making sure the supporters are happy. In summary, everything just feels off but me must move forward. Anyway, I going to go for an optimistic 2-2 and I am hoping for 11k with significant help from Swansea... -
