I feel so sorry for Gueye - he's a marked man with refs in this division. He gets battered all game and gets nothing given against him, but if he touches one of theirs it's a yellow. -

It's bigger than Ismael. Gestede is hopeless and we have no money. The squad is going to be horrendous next season if the owners are not forced to sell. Prospective buyers will be picking us up from L2 if we're not careful. -

Gestede looks bemused. -

Has he really said that? He's approaching Kean territory if he's coming out with quotes like that. What a clown. -

Bad on SKY for reiterating that the owners will not sell. -

Honestly they're completely lost - there's no system, no style of play. No idea what they do in training. -

They have - but most of them are absolutely forgettable. -

Honestly I think the owners will just completely blank us and the whole thing will peter out - only they'll have lost a couple more thousand off the gates. -

Conway is dogshit but he always scores against us. -

He's still playing Pears, so yes. -

Gestede, about 15 minutes into his second match in charge. -

Exiled_Rover replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
They can, but we haven't played with wide forwards under Gestede (albeit I'm not sure what we've played - the players look lost). I gather he likes to big CFs and a man behind as a #10 - but I could be wrong. -

Why do we need a RB and a RW if we're playing 3-4-3 / 3-5-2 (or whatever variant of 3 at the back the manager likes)? We need a CB and two athletic WBs if we're switching systems. A RW is pointless now. -
Season Tickets 2025/26

Dom's contractually obliged. I am not. -
Which is why the plan to develop youth and sell them on can't work under the current structure. You're left with the Travis / JRC / S. Wharton / Buckley level players. Decent Championship players, once they've developed (usually at 22+) but not worth a whole lot of money. Any one with PL talent is snaffled up for a minimal fee before they can play for you. It's absurd.
-
That's two of our players O'Rourke has tried to sell this month.
-
I'm obviously incredibly biased, but we're a Premier League club - similar to how Sunderland and Leeds should be Premier League clubs too.
-
If Tyjon is playing in the Championship at 17 and holding his own he won't be playing for us when he's 18. Of course the aim might just be for him to play at 17 so they don't have to fork out for an experienced CF for the bench...
-
Which is terrifying as clearly very few of them are up to standard and / or ready judging by their loans.

Venky’s (& Suhail) Out Protest Ideas
Exiled_Rover replied to DuffsLeftPeg's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
There's no way they're getting their money back. -
1. What's the desired end game. New owners. 2. What's the compromise position. In the past I would have said new CEO / DoF / Manager / Whatever Suhail's role is - but we've done that once and it hasn't worked. It's also clear from the interviews conducted yesterday that the owners want us to be self sufficient, which clearly isn't attainable - so there is no compromise. New owners. 3. What's your general thoughts on our approach to date. Excellent result in dragging Waggott / Suhail / Gestede out into the limelight and exposing them as charlatans. They're clearly very rattled and scored an own goal with those interviews. From my perspective as a fan, and listening to the Twitter Space yesterday, fans clearly want direction and organisation. I'm not sure 'Express yourself' is going to land how you want it to on Friday. 4. What's your thoughts on the Exec interviews yesterday. See above. An absolute car crash. 5. Do you want to get more involved. Potentially, but I don't have much free time to volunteer.
