Buy out bidder - Dan Williams Interview

Doing some googling and found this....I wonder what might have been.

It looks like this got fairly serious at one stage. Anyone know what happened?

I had some correspondence, via email, with Daniel Williams back in August 2007. He seemed serious about the takeover...There was definitely a gap between what the trustees wanted for the club and what he wanted to spend. His major business interest, Princeton Global went under in October 2007...

Did he ever really have the financial means to buy the club?

The defense is shameful...keep getting caught flat at the back...very poor

Playing three at the back really leaves us exposed. We keep getting over run. Made even worse by tippy tapping the ball around in dangerous places

Those substitutions 😠

Poor challenge from Buckley to give that free kick away. Pears should probably have positioned himself better as well

Yes he's been more involved. Decent pass forward, which almost set up a half chance.

Palace are obviously happy to play the waiting game.

They've been playing for 15 minutes, I think Wharton has touched the ball twice so far

Few tweets from Nixon here, seems to think Eustace not cut and dried ....and may not be the best option according to him

 

 

We might go full circle and bring Allardyce back...😁

I think Eustace left Birmingham due to misalignment with the board...

Good article there. 

Maybe our calls for Jackson to do his job were taken on board.

Even the two comments are normal.

Unfortunately the normal comments didn't last long 😞

Just before his mate Coyle was sacked Jim White did a whole show calling out Venkys and Suhail Pasha in particular. I quote "venkys we are coming for you" . Didn't follow up. Radio silence since. 

Let's bombard talk sport. Emails, social media platforms and every phone in going to remind them of this. Get #Venkysout trending. 

On 606 calls to Sutton and Savage may be met with more sympathy and understanding.

Talk sport presenter, Adam Catterall is a Blackburn lad as well. Should be easy to get him on board?

Anybody else getting the "content only available in certain countries" message when trying to watch from abroad? It's not on any broadcasting channel here.

Same here (france)

There's no more shirts coming in apparently. The stock that's left is all that will be available. That's what the Rovers emailed to me a few weeks back

If Armstrong didn't have pace, he would be very average. Whilst he keeps his pace he may make it at lower premiership level. So I think he will fit your team. A few Rovers fans seem to think that Saints have had us over on a few transfers. They remember Shearer, but forget we also got Le Saux and Tim Flowers. I would say we are about even. I think Armstrong has now reached his peak ,signing for you. I don't know he has the right mentality to keep pushing himself.

I think we got Le-Saux from Chelsea

RIP Kelvin. my condolences to his family.

This band have played darwen festival (although they were known as torrents then). Good band IMO (Blackburn based). www.MondaysArms.com

Dean Windass??? - maybe his wife could clarify??

Pre-brockhall days it was relatively easy to meet with Rovers players (Either at pleasington or behind pleckgate school). I met various players this way. David Speedie (good bloke -always use to chat to my dad), Garner , Hendry, Mimms, batty, le-saux, flowers etc. Also met Shearer on various occasions also whilst as a student in Newcastle (baja beach club).

I also remember one night in Blackburn after Hodgson got sacked me and my mates met the entire team up at Utopia. Spoke to Kevin Davies, who told me at the time that he had signed a 7 year contract!!! Apart from the fact that he was absolute poo he was actually a nice bloke - signed my bottle of beer and gave me the rest of his bottle. Also spoke with duffer, dunne, callum davidson, sebastien perez and john filan on the same night.
