Leonard Venkhater

Maybe he could record All Along the Watchtower...There must be some way outta here!

Agreed. Rolivier 's speech certainly rallied me. I can't help wondering if Rolo loves Charles Laughton and Olivier, as much as he obviously loves Rovers. How dare they!!!

I love this. It speaks to my heart. It could be delivered by Olivier! It is our version of Henry V Crispian's Day speech lol

He thought we might argue lol

I am wondering who benefits from "losses" like that. What is the function, for whom? However many millions they quote, I fail to be impressed. What a business failure! Add these "losses" to all the money from two seasons in the premier league , all the money from their fire sales and all the parachute payments.. Yet they never, ever appoint a proper manager, install a proper structure. However much money they quote, it is not f**** working! Get out and let someone take over, who is willing and able to run a club properly. Not one attempt at promotion to the top flight in 10 years....zombie club...only one outcome...

Ten thousand saw I at a glance, Renewing their tickets?-not a chance!

Wordsworth Blues, we are (not) here lol I can't have been the only one , thinking the poor Danes were like Rovers fans, leaving Old Trafford after one of those decisions! Just think...Gareth Northgate has the distinction of taking Boro down!

Keep posting them for me. It is a message board not a court of law lol

You've lost me

"These Blackburn fans remember the likes of Sutton and Shearer, banging them in"...( their expectations are too high...sense of entitlement blah blah) It's called "re-definition" in the trade and is just a way of misdirecting people from the unpalatable truth of his and Waggott's mismanagement and rightful supporter dissatisfaction. The trouble is that our illustrious owners didn't even have the guts to sack Kean, so......

I still tell my kids about some of his goals. I think this was my third Rovers bereavement-after Newton and Knighton. As a certain, octogenarian songwriter might say, "I used to care, but ..things have changed."

Both BB and SG have had a pretty easy ride. I agree that neither has control over their ridiculous fees. Lets face facts, though. Both have been very poor for most games. In a Rovers fan context , both are in a similar league to the likes of Paul McKinnon, John O'Mara, Kevin Davies, Jack Lewis and the fading John Radford..(Oh, there's such a long list!) Obviously, that could change for both SG and BB....but it really does need to-and quickly!

Sounds awful. State of Denmark rotten etc! It is always possible that TM offered the contract in good faith in light of an agreed budget, only for someone else to reduce the budget later? Maybe, Mowbray made the mistake of going on holiday like Cheston and the world turned.... Most of us do know that Blackburn Rovers and normal should never occupy the same sentence........(without another word like never or not) I fear for us this season..Out, out out with the lot of them!

Absolute class to the end!

On the last but one election night, when a well known poster stood, basically on a Venky's Out mandate, I heard Kate muttering the words "badly advised"....That was enough for me!

Lol....Absolute Shower!!

This has been a growing concern for me. You have got to worry about the level of know-how in the Rovers "boardroom"? If you are going to sell off good assets for a pittance, you would expect a sizeable sell -on clause. 10% is pathetic for Cairney, given the paltry fee. I don't know off hand, but I seem to remember thinking the sell-on percentage was low for Raya too.

I don't know the answer, JBiz, but I guess Stuart's post and your own show the whole, awful Blackburn Rovers dilemma. I understand that the "rhetoric of risk" is more dramatic and exciting than that of caution. However, Rovers are clearly going nowhere, except backwards and that seems like a slow, lingering death, in itself. I have started to see the current malaise as the pointless pain before a knee replacement. After the operation, the pain is somehow more worthwhile, as it paves the road to recovery.

You have named it there, Rev. "To be fair to the owners, would you give him any more money?"...and yet they leave him in post!!!! It is just not credible for Venky's to hold both views at the same time. Yet another argument for Venky's out, as far as I am concerned. I am sick of the club being mismanaged.

This time, it will need clear leadership. No room for big noise, overclaim and non delivery. We just cannot afford another fanfare fiasco like "WAR"....

I am prepared to wait. What have we got to lose after years of dumbing down? The season ticket details aren't even released...

It would be a great signing...but...he seems to be linked with several other clubs....

Quite. I think any concerted action would have to include giving them "a war at home"-lots of negative publicity in India.... The first goal has to be a strategy to engage the majority of supporters in clear aims for any action...And we all know that won't be easy here. Meanwhile, I am still holding back until we hear something back from Darren Rover and his associates. After 10 years of purgatory, I am prepared to wait a little longer.

Agree totally

It's called a journey......to Division 1.
