Venky’s, HMRC…The Plot Thickens ?
G Somerset Rover replied to tomphil's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
The club must be wrestled from them because it sounds as though they sure as hell won't sell up. -
v Plymouth Argyle (h) - 09/03/2024
G Somerset Rover replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Phil we must win. We’re not winning any of our matches til at least Sheff Weds at home after Saturday and by then we could well be cut a little adrift. -
v Millwall (h) - 5/3/24
G Somerset Rover replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Hard to argue. This is what happens from years of downgrading and filling your side out with players who won’t be here beyond the season (and I’d include the likes of Gallagher in that whose performance last night was dreadful). -
v Millwall (h) - 5/3/24
G Somerset Rover replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
This is the massive concern. If it hadn’t been for that gift from their defender then we could have played til Christmas and not scored. Newcastle aside, Eustace just cannot get us looking threatening in front of goal at all. He simply must let the shackles off on Saturday because make no mistake, a draw will not be good enough. -
v Millwall (h) - 5/3/24
G Somerset Rover replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I don’t think any club could or would take the risk. He can’t string together more than 3-4 games in a row without breaking down. How we’re crying out for him in this run in. He’s the only other one apart from Fadz and Sammie with a set of bollocks. -
Eustace Or Useless?
G Somerset Rover replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I’ve stopped listening to his guff already. It’s nauseating and so far removed from what actually happens on the pitch. -
Eustace Or Useless?
G Somerset Rover replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
If we’re drawing against Plymouth on Saturday with the clock ticking and he doesn’t go for it then he can do one for me - this overly conservative approach is going to finish the job off. -
Eustace Or Useless?
G Somerset Rover replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Indeed. ‘If you’re not gonna win it then make sure you don’t lose’ is all well and good when you’re away from home or facing one of the big boys. Not when you’re desperately needing wins against the likes of Millwall at home it’s not. -

G Somerset Rover replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I admire the optimism but I’d really suggest it’s not. We’ve won twice in 18 matches - we won’t suddenly start winning a few games. -

G Somerset Rover replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Two wins in EIGHTEEN matches. Let that sink in. Surely even Chaddy has us down. -

G Somerset Rover replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
We all know where the blame lays here but you’ve gotta say, Eustace has been absolutely shite so far. -
v Millwall (h) - 5/3/24
G Somerset Rover replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Not his fault but he did exactly the same at Swansea. Our fucking see you next Tuesdays of owners are really gonna pull it off arent they? -
v Millwall (h) - 5/3/24
G Somerset Rover replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Must win game and we put in this stinking performance. Not one shot yet. Absolutely fuming. -
v Millwall (h) - 5/3/24
G Somerset Rover replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Awful. Will this lot ever back up their talk off the pitch? I highly doubt it. -

I’m no Mercer, don’t worry! -
v Millwall (h) - 5/3/24
G Somerset Rover replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I mean, along with Leo being in goal for our most important two games of the season, this is a hammer blow. That 5-1 on us dropping looks insane to turn down as much as it pains me. -

I don’t blame him tbf; they’re absolutely shite. The whole lot of them. -
v Millwall (h) - 5/3/24
G Somerset Rover replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Leo disasterclass incoming. Millwall are probably the worst side he could possibly face. I’ll change my draw prediction into a tight lose. -
Rovers Rumours & Speculation
G Somerset Rover replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Hard to argue otherwise. As many of us have highlighted, it’s funny how no outgoing ever hits the skids. -
Venky’s, HMRC…The Plot Thickens ?
G Somerset Rover replied to tomphil's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Very well contributed, Ian. Great to see that the likes of Oliver Kay - who from memory has always been fair and supportive of us - have Venky’s back on their radar. This one snippet is particularly galling: One source, speaking on condition of anonymity to protect relationships, recalls approaching Mrs Desai with interest from two potential buyers in the mid-2010s and politely being told not to trouble her with such matters again. “We are not interested in selling,” came the message from Pune. -

G Somerset Rover replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
This has draw written all over it IMO, which simply won't be enough given the games we have coming up after Plymouth. -
I said the same the other day. Namely the fact that we're staring down the barrel. If we don't get at least 4 points this week then I'd put good money on nobody from the club fronting up.

If he says he’s on gardening leave then I’m more inclined to believe he’s signed a bumper new deal. -
That *was* the January Window
G Somerset Rover replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Waggott and Sohail couldn’t oranise a piss up in a brewery. Throw in Gregg & co who seem utterly inept too and we are left with a shit show every single window. Not that the owners will give a flying one, but we the fans will reap what they’ve sowed for further years of neglect with yet another relegation.
