Leonard Venkhater

Good faith? Not quite. Before we get too sackcloth and ashes, he didn't always come to the site in good faith. See his own "Thanks for the love" thread, which was launched as a provocative and antagonistic dig at posters here. Sure, two or three posts on this thread were OTT, but only a few....and we do have to see the context. I agree with Philip that the underlying problem is the bitter divide in the fanbase. Simon has largely taken one side-the loyalist one. I happen to have taken the other side, although, significantly, not in a local newspaper column.

Re no win position etc: if the LT still is a newspaper, why does it have to report such comments without irony or critique?

Hardly, if at all...

Well, I thought the football was absolutely dire!

Seriously?

Not sure we ever actually had yellow taxis in the town lol

Do you know what it is yet?!

Unscathed, I doubt it. Unfortunately, we will go down unless a change is made.

But all this is just window-dressing, when there is a huge issue about that lack of any passion/entertainment/drive on the pitch. I love Rovers, but, as a fan of 50 years, I am really angry with myself that I committed to a season ticket.

I have wondered about the answer, but that would be totally ridiculous....( at a normal club)

so he signed him because....

I can hear it now...injuries and suspensions blah, blah...

Yep..It makes me sick, to be honest

We certainly did give it a go. There has not been one decent attempt, since the Venky's dismantled us down. So many of our fans have just chosen to re-write the pre-Walker years, when we were regular challengers, even if we never made the final push...1978-fifth, 1981-third ( missed out on goal difference) 1984-fifth, 1985-fifth, 1988 -fifth, 1989-fifth and play off final, 1990-fifth.. Too much accepting the unacceptable imo..

Get behind the lads FFS!

Buy now and we promise to hold the price for Division 1

No, your meaning was clear enough lol

We are a very poor team. Impotent in attack, lots of pointless possession and giving away cheap goals. All that adds up to probable relegation in my experience.

I read that the team's pass completion rate was a mere 50% at Elland Road. Got to be a worry.

Mediocre..are you joking?

Yep. Frustrating...

It has been prorogued!

Provoking, but a good point imo. I think most Rovers fans feel more powerless than ever. There is no fight left in the fanbase-partly a result of being worn down by the events, since 2010. This is a slow, lingering death. If and when the Venky's do pull the plug, there will be even fewer people, who will be even more worn down. A deliberate strategy?
