1. What's the desired end game. The ultimate aim is for Venky’s to sell the club to new owners who are present, communicate with the fans and have the best interests of the club & fans at heart AND the community it is part of. 2. What's the compromise position. Steve Waggott, Suhail Pasha & Rudy Gestede to resign or be replaced by competent individuals. The ultimate aim needs to be as per point 1. 3. What's your general thoughts on our approach to date. Great so far, it’s clear there is a plan. I’d like there to be a focus on a genuine protest either before or during a match however I understand we are not at that stage as yet and I’m willing to trust a process that is working well so far. An idea I’ve had is for a collection of fan “stories” to be filmed and released. For example my own story would be of a 40 year old man with 2 children, a season ticket holder since the age of 7, “passed the baton” by my Dad who watched Rovers since the 1970’s but is now so disillusioned with the club he no longer attends games. As a father I’d like to take my children to more games but as fan numbers & the atmosphere decreases and the threat of protest increases, Ewood is no longer somewhere I feel comfortable taking them. And also they don’t want to as the match day experience and football on the pitch is rarely that good! 4. What's your thoughts on the Exec interviews yesterday? An embarrassment to the club we all love. Steve Waggott does not appear to be competent as his job as CEO, it is unclear what Suhail Pasha’s role actually is and Rudy Gestede appeared more calm & confident however also appears to be hugely naïve and not experienced enough to carry out his role at this level. 5. Do you want to get more involved? I would be happy to be interviewed for the above fan stories idea and interested in attending any planned protests and already have a 6ft printed banner for this purpose that I had done before the Wrexham FA Cup game in January 2024 just before JDT walked and Adam Wharton was sold. You could see this coming a mile off then! How can you help? See above. I am unable to commit more time currently due to childcare, work and the inability to attend every game. I am going to the Watford Home match.

Venky’s (& Suhail) Out Protest Ideas

We’ve had the same as tonight and more vs Plymouth in the stadium. It’s been a good start and I agree, a hugely impactful week but the pressure needs to be maintained and more. Hopefully Glen and co have more up their sleeve. Happy to help in any way I can, and I’ve already got a banner that’s better than a bedsheet! -

Can we please stop the ruse now that we have any chance of making the play-offs? Anyone who’s watched the team since January knows its been over for a while. Let’s keep the pressure on, the only way forward is for the owners to sell the club. Every fan remaining with any fight left in them needs to get behind this cause. There will be no club left otherwise. Sorry to say but #ExpressYourself isn’t enough. I couldn’t make it tonight but only a few chants and banners heard on TV is not enough. Even after everything that’s happened, 6 losses out of 7, the worst form in the Championship in the last 20 games. If that’s all we can muster it’s pathetic. -

It’s bullshit anyway. The Plymouth game proved you can simultaneously protest against the terrible board & ownership and get behind the lads, we won comfortably 2-0 and there was a huge feel good factor around the stadium. It improves the atmosphere if anything, the players know the fans are fully behind them. -

Great effort on SSN @glen9mullan. To be getting this kind of air time is only positive for the fans! Some great points made, you could see the presenters trying to get a word in but couldn’t 😆 The point about Brighton, Bournemouth and Brentford is an excellent response to the question about investment and funding. Well run clubs with a clear model & plan in the top half of the Premier League despite relatively low attendances compared to the big boys. This is what is possible with engaged and competent leadership. The excuses of Waggott & Suhail simply don’t cut it anymore #EnoughIsEnough -

You've got Phase 1 to 3 But do it at the right time You can be slow or fast But get on BBC Waggott will hit you and hurt you Defend and attack There's only one way to beat him Get 'round the back Catch Glen if you can 'Cause he’s the Rovers man And what you're looking at Is the master plan We ain't no hooligans This ain't a football song Red Rose on my chest I know we can't go wrong -

Question - if you could pick any American duo to buy Rovers who would you go for? I’d go for Dwayne Johnson (The Rock) and Kevin Hart. A series commissioned on Apple TV soon after on their mission to return the former Champions to Premier League glory once again. At their first game, The Rock walks on the pitch and screams down the mic in WWE style….“Finally, The Rock has come BACK to Blackburn” Dreaming now, but this is the narrative we have to get out there. There’ll be huge interest in English Football this summer and next with the Club & International World Cups. No better time than now for the Indians to sell up. The end is coming. Let’s keep the pressure on 💪 COYB 🌹

Waggott calls the Championship table “Snakes and Ladders” We obviously keep hitting the Steve Waggott snake every January - the biggest snake on the board sending us from the Top 6 down to mid-table again every season! 🐍 I honestly think Rudy has some credit in the bank, for me he’s certainly naïve with how the head coach change has been handled; a 6-month temporary appointment would’ve been better to steady to ship and not change things too much in terms of the playing style. But he’s clearly trying to do his job and under a competent and trustworthy CEO he would get better and improve. Being an ex-player he knows what is expected on the field and likely has good contacts at this level. Suhail, nice to hear from you mate but you’re clearly a Venkys yes man. Nodding dog throughout the interview and certainly doesn’t have the ability to hold the owners to account, or even speak to them from what I can gather? The shortfall in season ticket budget and utilities could be made just by getting rid of this pointless individual. Or employ a call centre worker on about £30k a year to communicate with India! Venky’s Out! Nothing changes until they leave. #ENOUGHISENOUGH -

We’re going to run out of people to want out! Venkys, Suhail, Waggott, Gestede, Ismael - get the whole lot out and start again. The players also have a lot to answer for. Too many in that squad just happy to be there and pick up a pay cheque for average performances. The whole club, aside from a very successful academy, is toxic from top to bottom. -

I feel that JoJo put it best in her song “Leave (Get Out)” from 2004: Get out (LEAVE) right now It's the end of you and Rovers It's too late (NOW), and I can't wait for you to be gone 'Cause I know about them (WHO?) And I wonder (VENKYS) How we bought all the lies You said that you would treat us right But you were just a waste of time (WASTE OF TIME) (some lyrics may have been changed to suit the song) -

Sacre Bleu! Pears Sanderson Hyam Carter Brittain Travis Tronstad Riberio Dolan Gueye Ohashi 1-0 defeat. The above formation is garbage. Decent wingbacks but the 2 midfielders aren’t expansive enough to do the job and the lack of a number 10 to link the midfield & attack is a huge issue. The defence aren’t used to playing a back 3 which is why Hyam made the mistake on Wednesday - too many spaces in between on a huge pitch and Stoke took advantage. -

You’re right, there will be little to no reaction. There was vs Plymouth but back to normal against Norwich with not a whimper about Venkys. But what exactly is it you’re looking to do by slagging off our fanbase, that you are a part of? Aside from that, I’m rapidly losing interest in Rovers. It’s Groundhog Day again, this time under the worst coach we’ve had for a while - his quick changes and awful formation change have left the players confused. They simply aren’t good enough to play his expansive pressing style of football. Distinct parralels with Amorim at Utd with his rigid 3-4-3 without the players to play it. Exactly the same with us. 4-2-3-1 has worked all season, why change it? Madness. -

What have you done? Other than post aggressive and unhelpful statements like that on here? Just out of interest. Why doesn’t Tim Farron set up a petition like this? Could someone email or contact him on social media? -
v Plymouth Argyle (h) - 15/2/2025
DuffsLeftPeg replied to philipl's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I’m no tactical genius but feels like the handbrake is off and our attacking players have been given license to express themselves. Also both full-backs were high in the 2nd half creating overloads either side, Plymouth were so poor we were playing with 2 defenders when we had the ball. Credit to the lads for going for it though, even at 1-0. Also credit to Eustace the snake for laying some pretty solid foundations but it should be a much more exciting end to the season now he’s gone. COYB 🌹 Venkys, Suhail and Waggott OUT! -

If not now then when? Enough is enough when it comes to the running of this club No cosying up to Waggott in meetings with the players. The time for dialogue is over. They’ve shown their true colours. It’s time to show ours 🔵⚪️
