That *was* the January Window
MarkBRFC replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I don't think you go to the trouble of making bids without knowing if the player is interested or not. It's not football manager where you just go and bid for anyone you fancy, months of work goes into these sorts of things before you actually make a bid for someone. -

Again, like the many other posts that say the same thing, what has happened in the last 13 years to suggest that this is a possibility?! -

I'd be amazed if any is spent on new players. At best you might get another Telalovic or another O'Riordon. -

Haha what a strange response. Properly rattled this lot, what's wrong with you?! -

I don't think you read the original post properly. -
Not sure why anyone is expecting some huge announcement with what has happened. It will come out in the next few days or so that venkys have had another £11m approved by the courts to keep us going for 6 months and everyone on twitter or whatever will respond saying how magnificent they are. Rinse and repeat for the forseeable.

Doesn't say from what league though to be fair. -
QPR/Huddersfield this weekend. Rovers/QPR & Sheff Wed/Huddersfield next weekend. Worst case scenario is that we're only 3 points clear of the bottom 3 by end of play on Feb 3rd.

No, because the clause is a "sell" on clause. -

I did, please explain. -

Didn't happen so it means nothing. Just because we need them doesn't mean we will get them. I will be amazed if we get 4-5 players in with nobody going the other way. -

The logic certainly points that way. When was the last January window that we came out stronger than when we went into it? Let me guess, "it will be different this time" -

Unlike the league games i have no doubt we will make light work of this lot. Rovers 4 Wrexham 1 -
We are going down (the pessimism thread)
MarkBRFC replied to simongarnerisgod's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
The next game against QPR is crucial. A defeat will obviously cut the gap to 6 points, its also Huddersfield/Sheff Wed that weekend. I still hope there will be enough bad teams around us to save us. -
v Huddersfield Town (h) - 20/01/2024
MarkBRFC replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Lose to them in our next league game and I will start to get concerned. Huddersfield, Stoke and Milwall are all dreadful too though. -
Heard it over in the Riverside, few in the row in front couldn't believe what they were hearing "venkys out?! where has that come from?! Without them we would be bankrupt". I preceding to talk loudly to mate next to me about the issues with them hopefully they got the jist of it. The rest around me completely no sold it either way.

Season tickets are a tough enough sell anyway for next season with the new TV deal kicking in and 5 championship games moving for TV every weekend. Add in the price, which let's be honest isn't going down, the terrible home record, venkys nonsense, a good portion of fans getting sick of JDT etc etc and we could be looking at less than 7k again.

MarkBRFC replied to Upside Down's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I imagine it will be the same dull line up with Moran and Sigursson out wide. Never thought I would say it, and it's a damming indication of where we are but I would actually like to see Gallagher back on the right hand side with Semir up top. At least he can get up and down the pitch and is a bit of a presence out there. Ideally it wouldn't happen, but if the alternatives are Moran and Markandey then I would go for it. -

I wonder if something is in negotiations with one or two of our players, for JDT to keep repeating "I can't imagine the club will make the squad weaker before anyone comes in" just doesn't sit well with me, like he knows damn well that's what's going to happen and he's calling them out on it again. Let's be honest JDT has shown he doesn't give a shit about upsetting anyone higher than him with his constant swipes at Waggott and I think it's great. -
It's just our usual early cup match attendance. Coupled with the fact it's a Monday night on TV against a 4th division side and it's more expensive than it was in the last round against a 3rd division side and you have a very low home turn out. Crowds are dwindling though, as you would know only getting 3k or so before deadpool arrived.

You could potentially have two thirds of the crowd that night.

It's not like Rovers to make things difficult for the match going fan 🤔
