Interesting. Most of the seasons in the so-called 80's dark times saw the Rovers in with a shout certainly until February. Hence Bill Fox's quote "We get promoted in February." The Venky's years in the second tier have all been like a Beckett play. No point, nothing happens.

In the old days, we would bite the bullet, sell Dack and use a percentage of the fee to build a balanced squad. The heartbreaking sale of Tony Field allowed us to build a promotion-winning team. But that would take someone with the nous of Gordon Lee in the transfer market. Tony's transfer record is a huge worry for me. Even the purchase of Dack can't make up for the likes of Brereton and Gallagher and the woeful imbalance in the squad.

Management issue: the defence is not fit for purpose. This has been a problem for several transfer windows.TM said emphatically that he, himself, knew it was a significant problem. It has not been addressed.

The Alan Spratley incident at Ewood and the Jim Brown one a few years later. Rovers fans, chanting Kingsley Read's Blue and White Army on the London underground in the 70's. Paul Agnew saying on Radio Lancs that " the emergence of Jason Lowe" was the reason for Salgado losing his place....

"Post snatcher" lol

Our very own Titus Oates is plumbing new depths. An attention-seeking controversialist, seeking to ride on the post Bulgaria indignation. I think this is a low blow and up there with the "dark forces" slander.

It seemed clear to me that the reason they got mentioned in the first place was because posters are conscious that we are so shit at the minute...and we are!

Seriously? Well, here goes. Bazza said Bell was a million times better than Goulon. You said Bell is not a million times better than anyone. My diplomatic conclusion is that, in a sense, you are both right. ...because, I thought it was well established that Goulon was worth nothing ( in terms of contribution to BRFC)..... Well, it is more interesting than the current Blackburn Rovers...

A million x 0 = 0

But I would have preferred a public execution on a hot afternoon in Dubai...Oh well..

...of boredom. We are so shite to watch...

No, no, no! A known, narcissistic bully with a very fragile ego. He would do so much damage to our club.

Well, we have been here before. Why stay, when there is clearly no intention of taking the club forward?

I cannot for the life of me think of a reason why Venky's own Blackburn Rovers I cannot for the life of me think of a reason why Venk'ys appointed Steve Kean, Paul Agnew, Shebby Singh, Derek Shaw, ........ We are not a normal club.

Well, I knew he said it, but it really is shocking watching and listening to it. If it was a scene in Shakespeare, it would be discussed as the perfect exemplar of dramatic irony... So, for any journo or supporters panel..."Watch this, Tony. Now take me from there..."

I still don't get this. After all TM's comments about crap defenders and with all his own experience, as a defender, he must absolutely know that you build a team from the back. So why this"deliberate" neglect? Is he stupid and masochistic? Has he got some kind of manager's death wish? I doubt that- even after these last calamitous windows. There must be some constraints from elsewhere. Still, he appears onside with our ever so 'umble owners. Anyway, I have formed the opinion that TM is allowing his honest bloke image to be utilised to reconcile supporters to the totally unacceptable. Now just watch for the facebook Rovers plants to play the hard luck / injuries story. FOV....

Just looking at this phrase!!!

It will most likely be another inexperienced manager ...or one, who will be happy to take the money, just to tread water.

I can hear their chorus now " You're fcking shit"...And, painfully, I know it to be so true. Sick of it.

Ah...not counting wages? That is like a map of The British Isles with no Manchester or London! ( No bad thing either. you may think)

Certainly, that is the trajectory. Since January it is 15 defeats in 28 league games...and two missed opportunities to sort out the longstanding shit defence. Meanwhile, the money spent on forwards looks ridiculously amateurish too. Going nowhere, but backwards.

How?

You must have posted that many times before..

So am I!

But Venky's relegated us. Just look at the decisions the previous summer!
