  1. Yes! Or inconveniently the Sweet FA 🤐
  2. Well, that just goes to show what a load of crap my opinion on any game is. Very happy to be shown to be a complete buffoon, though 😉 The place looks pretty empty.. When you compare the attendance with that at Southampton...?? WTF!!? Litherland looking lively. Rovers looking surprisingly up for it, and Millwall so far just not at the races. COYB!
  3. Huge show of faith, LOL, LOL, LOL! Scraping the barrel isn't showing faith, it is demonstrating desperation. Can't see anything other than a resounding reverse here for Rovers. Rovers 0 Harry the Dog 3 VENKYS OUT!
  4. Exactly. A scandal that is being perpetrated in full view of those who should be ensuring it doesn't happen. Someone, somewhere has information that would blow the doors off. It is waaaay past the time for them to step forward, in the name of decency, propriety and fairness to the bona-fide supporters of Blackburn Rovers. When the club has folded will be too late, but that is clearly the trajectory that these arseholes have us on, as evidenced by the gathering of leaches and bottom feeders that flit irritatingly around the carcass settling in the deep dark waters of footballing obscurity. VENKYS OUT!
  5. We all might need to be, before too long. That, or the football equivalent of morphine. VENKYS OUT!
  6. Yup - back on the managerial scrap heap before too long. The FACT is that none of the recent managerial incumbents have been supported by the ownership even when the club was (often miraculously) in a decent position to kick on in January for a push towards play-offs or automatic promotion. How the process will operate with the club dangerously poised over the trap door at the other end of the table remains to be seen, but if last summer's chaotic and confusing clusterfuck is continued, I think we are in for a very bitter and disappointing time, come the January sales. The signs are all there: Talk of recalling junior players from lower league loans to cover holes in the senior squad The manager making ridiculous noises about forgoing signings so the club can afford the alternative of giving the pitch a facelift Zero (nada, niet, zilch, sod all, nuthhhhhin) from the club about plans to strengthen the squad from outside The relative prominence being given to U18, U21 performances in club 'news' (although that might just seem more prominent because there is feck all to celebrate from the senior squad perspective) No ambition, no strategy, no clear plan, no character and (critically) NO MANAGEMENT STRUCTURE at the club. It all adds up to one thing, and one thing only - Robinson fucking Crusoe. I despise the Indian fuckwits and their knobhead two-faced incompetent henchboys. VENKYS OUT!
  7. If the Rovers was a child, social services would have been alerted a long time ago for the clear and obvious signs of neglect. Anyone can see how the club's association with football is only peripheral to whatever 'business' is actually transacted behind the scenes - it is an irrelevance and an inconvenient historical legacy that allows something else to go on without proper scrutiny. The contempt with which the decent folk of Blackburn are treated by the owners is nauseating - makes me incandescent to think they are not challenged by the so called authorities for their sad little game. VENKYS OUT!
  8. I prefer the current version that doesn't show Jack with his Walker family congenital defect (tree growing from head).. All the Walkers have that, especially Howard, who sports a spruce bough from his tonsure at this time of year
  9. Harry the Dog and co... They can feck off
  10. Surely that has to be the final nail in Gueye's coffin? Dead man walking look in his eyes, and complete lack of confidence in his demeanour throughout. Remember, football is a game that is built on feedback, and if that is the kind of 'support' he gets from his club captain and team-mates on a daily basis, there is no way back for the lad. If I was him I'd be asking to play centre half or something or go out on loan to a lower division, as it is clear he has the striking prowess of a gnat on a windscreen in Championship terms. Whilst it is a shame for the lad, it is much more of a shame on those who brought him to the club, who clearly haven't a clue what is required to compete effectively at this level of football. Time to move on, Maktar. The video re-confirms that Sondre Tronstadt is a solid, reliable and effective performer, and that Todd Cantwell is a show pony.
  11. 2 points from a possible 9 in the last 3 fixtures (albeit one abandoned) tells the depressing story - the trajectory is clearly swinging downwards and the fixture pile up, pitch problems on wet days, long term absentees from the matchday squad and a general air of doom and gloom means... feck all in this league. We could do with a couple of sublime Alebiosu / Gudjohnssen combos tomorrow, and a cheeky Mori or Yuki top up to crown another 'unexpected' positive result for Roving Rovers on the Road. More likely it seems like the wheels will finally bounce off and we will be left careering towards oblivion. Not feeling the 'we can beat this lot' vibe at all. Pompey in circumstantial capitulation 1 Rovers in Rampant Renaissance Running Riot 3 Pomp up the volume 3 Raggedy Rovers 0 Pomp my Rovers Ride, I'm all at sea 0 Realistic Reflection of Resources 0 COYB! Oh, and to those who think I'm an AI bot..I say, oh bondage, up yours!
  12. Wafer thin squad. Let the excuses begin.. Merry Xmas Xford.
  13. The mighty Oxford United will probably do a job on us tonight. The conditions are perfect for a reverse. The omens are stacked against a 'normal' game or result. The chances are we will capitulate and concede at least once on the night. O woe is me Rovers 0 Oxford 2 Oh how did that happen? Rovers 1 Oxford 4 Oh not another reverse at home, surely Shirley..? Don't call me Shirley Rovers 0 Oxford 1 (95th minute own goal). Feck it. COYB
  14. The cracks are certainly appearing in the wafer thin paper that has been used to disguise the reality of our club's plight by the faceless, useless, pointless, feckless ones. Way past their sell by, IMO.
