You are (probably purposely) being slightly awkward here pal. I am not a Trust member but its very clear they only represent their 400 members. As I presently understand it, their end game is working together with the owners on fan engagement and to form a shadow board. They decided to ditch their Venkys out stance years ago (I imagine by democratic process with their paid up members). Fair enough isn't it. As I choose not to be a member, I don't expect them to tell me their business, although I appreciate that they do. They could simply inform their members by Trust communication methods and not mention it on here. We would be worse off. Your initial point is fair criticism (if you are a member). They could have posted, "finally had a hastily arranged meet with Suhail, full update to follow in coming days". It is fair to say, most people would still not know now, if you had not forced it from them. But as Mike says, nobodies weekend has been enriched as a result, either way. We still await the flesh of the meeting and hopefully the Trust will post it more widely than their members. If you want to get involved again with the Trust board, why don't you just approach them quietly and offer your services 😘 Either way, we are all on the same team here and should appeciate the time volunteered by leaders of all fans groups, including WATR, BRFCS, FF, etc, etc. You know this better than anyone. Play fairly Mr Mullan.

As the Ewood sands of responsibility shift again, I will remind everyone to forget what you see in the smoke and mirrors. There is one person running the show at Ewood. He was involved before Venkys. He was a "fixer" working with Kentaro. He credits himself with fixing the sale of Rovers to Venkys. He hired Waggott, he hired Senior, he hired Shebby, he hired Anderson. Hired may be the wrong word with Anderson as they were all together in the same filthy piss pot. He worked from the shadows until outted for not having a work permit. He now works in the shadows behind a hired puppet. Operations and management consultant. Now Chief Operating Officer. Time to finally drag him out into the open.

I calculate this will be my 9th season boycotting since I stopped my ST. Fully committed to going all season again without setting foot in Ewood, unless the owners leave. 100% guaranteed they will back down before I do. Magic rainforest stick at the ready.

I struggle saying Dan... Dann... Murph Makes me feel sick and angry !

Rovers Insider gave an update on current sales of season tickets.  Just over 8,900 had been sold (compared to 8,545 last season).  76% of those are renewals.  Adult – just under 4,000.  Senior – just under 1,600.  Juniors – just over 1,300.  U12’s – 1,200. (12% up on last season).  Young Adults – 600. MG enquired about corporate sales and was this counted in the sales figures. FR stated that corporate sales were included in the overall total. Wow ! Conclusion. 24% (more) have fucked it off. The cheap tickets stunt didn't work at all. In fact it was a disaster. The cheap kids tickets worked (obviously). Likelyhood is there will be far less match day walk ons.

Fraser Read (aka Rovers Insider) confirmed as leaving. Salary going to a Japanese striker who will quietly wonder why his monthly payslip says "Fraser Read".

They "don't have enough staff" to chase after new fans or sell new STs. A few emails to lapsed ST holders. Bet it is lies because I haven't heard from the club since they stopped posting those renewal postcards. I bet Matty liked reading that one.

So Waggott has agreed the owners cannot transfer money without the court case. Exactly as we all knew but finally admitted. Still repeats his politician's technical points e.g. we have never had a wind up order. Yeah we know dickhead, we were 10 mins away from one. Point stands you set of fuckwits.

Waggott does 🤣 Don't bite Mike, it was tongue in cheek.

His replacement IS Jack Vale.

Here we are, 400 pages about nothing. Onto 600 by Aug 20

I reckon Hulk Hogan would tear it up live streaming in exchange for likes. Just ask him. "Think Big"

Tonight you are being a WUM / Troll and should be banned 🤣😘

Haha read it aloud... I am the replacement of the lad who didn't score once. Gimme the work permit.

Nah, via Western Union apparently

Sorry, I am with Chaddy on this one. Show me one single ST purchaser who did not sign up for exactly this scenario. I will ring the special ambulance for them. The situation has been entirely clear for over a year. If you don't want your ST, donate it to a School or a raffle. Nah didn't think so.

Can't say fairer than that. Not one person is surprised as this is entirely expected.

Makes no sense. Club needs money for day to day expenses, bills, wages, HMRC. Venkys cannot send money due to ED restrictions. Money must come from somewhere. This means club cannot operate so will sell assets, take loans, sell STs, whatever they can to generate money to operate. Note all the money generated belongs to Venkys and is theirs to do as they choose. You can't buy unless you already sold and have some trading beans.

You knew all of this before you bought your STs.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 You cannot believe that unless you live with the Teletubbies.Laa Laa Land. We have an academy. This is how it works now. A lad from Japan for £115K is a marquee signing to keep the boys on their toes.

On their summer hols probably. This time last year they were planning the Fans Takeover vs Girona. No games at Ewood this year, clearly can't afford the costs. Bolton had 7000 on yesterday against Fiorentina. These days you struggle to tell the difference between the club and their volunteer employees. MOU.

Szmods £8m Should cover the floodlights until Jan

Does this mean 47,097 Rovers fans have bought tickets in the last 12 months ? Surely that is major bullshit or everyone has 4 accounts and they cocked the job up. Otherwise the ground would be full every week.
