2025 Summer Transfer Thread. 😂

You know what, whilst you clearly jest, with the current state of the club I could still believe this. -
Venky’s (& Suhail) Out Protest Ideas
DE. replied to DuffsLeftPeg's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Don't worry, "the data" says we'll be fine, so no need to be concerned. -
Wednesday's players have put up an admirable fight considering the conditions there. Won't do them any harm when the vultures eventually come to pick the carcass.

You either fill the ground and make it extremely difficult for the ownership week-in week-out with banners, chants, game interruptions, etc (will never happen with our fans - get behind the lads ffs, etc) or mass boycott (will also never happen for the same reason as the first suggestion). There isn't really an in-between that will get any attention. Not that I think Venky's would care either way, and that's the biggest problem. Protests are only effective if it makes the owner(s) squirm. They just ignore it all as it's far away and has zero impact on anything they actually care about. It's tough to know what to do, but your typical crowd protests at the match aren't going to get their attention.

2025 Summer Transfer Thread. 😂
DE. replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
We were also told our number one target was Baradji, who may or may not actually ever play for us. I'm curious how much of his wage we're paying to rehabilitate another club's player. Someone's doing alright out of this deal, but it isn't us. Tavares also hyped up as a big talent when he joined... within two months he can't even get into this team. Embarrassing. We've made literally one signing who comes anywhere close to being at the level we need - Alebiosu. That's it. The rest are significant downgrades on what we had before. -

If you work in data you know it can be manipulated to suit whichever narrative is most favourable. It isn't even difficult if the dataset is big enough and has multiple vague, stupid metrics. Anyone with eyes and a functioning brain can see we're going down. -
Millwall up to 3rd with a negative net transfer spend. Difference being they didn't jettison the majority of their Championship experience nor hire an incapable manager. Just doing the basics right, something out owners haven't been able to grasp for 15 years.

He repeated the word "complicated" about a hundred times. Thinks it was a fantastic performance but also said we can't defend or score. Looked and sounded absolutely lost. -

Gudjohnsen did well for the drilled cross that bounced off De Neve into Ohashi's path, but what else did he do of note? Genuine question as I barely remember him being involved in anything else. Could be that my brain is already replacing that wasted 90 minutes with other, more useful information. -

DE. replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Almost certainly true, but now it just looks worse for them as if they did inflate the number to make it look like we were spending, they now look more incompetent for supposedly wasting more money than we actually did. It'd be funny if the situation wasn't so dire. -

What was it, £2m we spent on Taveres and he can't even make the match day squad? In our position that is appalling financial mismanagement. If he's injured then OK, but as of two weeks ago Ismael said it was not injury related. -

De Neve actually does get into good positions and has pace. Unfortunately his final ball and general technical ability is far, far below this level. At best he'll get a few lucky bounces of the ball as he did tonight, but he's absolutely not the answer. Unfortunately neither is Hedges, or anybody else who could play on that side of the pitch. I feel for Alebiosu. The one player who has actually exceeded expectations, and in another season would have been judged as a genuinely great bargain pickup. Unfortunately he's come in at the worst possible time. -

Imagine Will Still, Marti Cifuentes and Liam Manning will all get the chop before Ismael. At best we'll be adrift and long gone before he gets the boot. At worst he's still here this time next year as we line up to face Doncaster, sitting somewhere between 18th and 24th in League One. -
Well, yes, you could argue it in that way. Just makes things even more depressing though. Genuinely think we could finish below Sheffield Wednesday. They may be having to play U18s, but some of those are probably more useful than our dollopers. A points deduction may keep them below us, maybe.

I love the big man, but he's no footballer and most likely isn't hugely motivated by these pointless end of game cameos. -
Strong first half is pushing it a bit imo. We just about matched one of the worst teams in the division, and relied on a fantastic save from Toth to not be a goal down. Our goal came from a mis-hit shot from De Neve which fortunately bounced directly into Ohashi's path after the Sheffield United defence briefly disappeared into another dimension.

Valérien Ismaël: Blackburn Rovers Head Coach
DE. replied to DE.'s topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
He came in and bombed a half-decent side out of the playoffs. Won a few games when the pressure was off - classic Venky Rovers. This season back to how he started, an absolute joke. He's just a small part of a much, much bigger problem though. Our squad has been so utterly wrecked by the people above Ismael that it's tough to see any manager coming in and turning this around. I don't know if I've ever seen such a technically deficient squad. Our 16/17 team would batter this lot.- 2816 replies

Eustace saw what was coming, which is why he was so desperate to get the hell out of here, even if it meant going to a side who appeared to be going down. It's not being a snake, it's just possessing a brain. -

Hire a failure of a manager. Put an intern in charge of football operations. Sell all Championship experience. Buy a bunch of random cheap punts from abroad. Predictable end result is predictable. -

Would require those in charge to admit they are wrong. Seems highly unlikely unless there is a direct threat to either of their positions as a result of our nauseous form, which also seems unlikely as there's no indication the owners have any idea or indeed even care about what is going on. -

Kargbo has negative zero football intelligence. He seems to think offside is the ideal outcome. -

A team that had scored four goals before tonight, with only one of those coming away at Oxford. As far as luck is concerned, De Neve scuffed the assist for our goal, he didn't even mean it. If it had gone the way he intended it'd probably have ended up in Row Z.
