The Beatles - Don’t Let Me Down

It’s very sad. Peter was a big help to me when I first joined the Board. A very kind man who loved the Rovers and his family very much. RIP Peter x

In a nutshell pissed off at the constant avoidance of meeting us and a fairly bleak outlook for the club and getting worse (I don’t think we’d signed anyone at that point) and of course all the court case shit in India.

Well at least three of the people who have reacted or responded know me ‘in the real world’ and I would be surprised if any of them had anything negative to say about what I bring to the Trust. I protested against the Rovers Board in the 70s and 80s but I’m too old now to be sitting on pitches and marching down Nuttall Street so this is the only way I can help. I must have misread a few of the negative posts then 😉

That I can answer. WATR requested a meeting and insisted that Suhail be present. PS - I’m not back yet but fly back later tonight 😢

Bronski Beat - Small Town Boy

It’s a shocker. Mind you it always is when the person concerned is several years younger than you 😢 RIP Graham Thorpe

No mate, I really don’t think I did.

What is the point then?

It will be relayed to Trust members, no doubt one of them will post it on here. Wind yer neck in. You can ask me as many fucking questions as you like - I’ve been in Tenerife for a week and have no idea yet what was said at the meeting but they have promised to publish what was discussed. The meeting was arranged with almost no notice and on a Friday and yet folk are getting their knickers in a twist because they haven’t heard anything by Monday. I will repeat. There is no obligation for the Trust or individual Board members to report anything on this messageboard. When I post on here it is generally in a personal capacity. I put a lot of what is very precious time into helping out with the Trust, as do several others. Reading some of the nonsense on this forum - and not just from you - makes me wonder why I fucking bother to be honest. “Cuddling up to the rats”? Dearie me.

The Trust is not answerable to posts on BRFCS. Full stop. Sometimes we can’t do right for doing wrong.

REM - Shiny, Happy People

Thierry Henry had much better players around him generally speaking than Shearer did. I’m not saying he single handedly won us the league but without him in our side we don’t finish 4th, 2nd, 1st and 7th in those first four seasons. And then he went to Newcastle and carried on where he left off and on one leg too. Nobody will ever convince me that Henry was better than a peak Alan Shearer.

The Commodores - Three Times a Lady

Marvin Gaye - Save the Children

Queen - Killer Queen

The Beatles - Lady Madonna

I think Celtic fans might hold a different view tbf. He would utilise our current on-field strengths I think.

This notion is odd. 'Foreigners' aren't exactly a homogenous group are they, and just because a couple of them have failed (I don't think Sven did too badly actually) you'd be happy to turn down the likes of Pep and Jurgen? Wow.

I would have expected more opposition to Klopp tbh, given the Aussies have never really been a football rival as such.

Ange would be my pick out of all of them. Plays attacking football, good man-manager and has experience of coaching an international team.

Paul Weller - Remember How We Started

The Specials - Too Much Too Young

Paul McCartney - Maybe I’m Amazed

Meanwhile, in Glasgow…
