Todd Cantwell - is he off?
Mattyblue replied to ruggles1995's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I think they are journeymen cloggers as I still have expectations that first choice players for Blackburn Rovers should be better than the likes of them, others obviously don’t, but I suppose that’s what watching fifteen years of rubbish does -

If you think two cloggers like Miller and McLoughlin are good players then yes, it’s a question of standards. -

How long until the end of Venkys?

Cheers for the Forbes report. -
Championship clubs on the market have little issue attracting investors from what I can see… but of course you need two parties at the table.

Mattyblue replied to ruggles1995's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
There’s a haughtiness about him, yet he’s nearly 28 and he’s sat at a shambolic club sitting 20th in the second division. Maybe he needs to look at himself as to why his career trajectory has gone this way. -

Channelling Gandhi is a new spin on it. -

And of course Pears in that well known shade of neon green that goalkeepers in the 19th century were renowned for wearing. -
Venky’s (& Suhail) Out Protest Ideas
Mattyblue replied to DuffsLeftPeg's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Had a chat to most around me today. The club is fucked was the consensus, but after *fifteen years* of this it is the feeling of resignation that is different here. There doesn’t look any feasible route to them fecking off, so a meek acceptance (and walking away when it comes to ST renewals) is the response you get in the ground. -
v Wrexham (h) - 1/1/26, 12:30pm k/o
Mattyblue replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Only these clowns would try and price Wrexham (12.30, Sky) as a premium fixture. -
If you can Rover-ise the local area then great as the regime do everything they can to de-Rover-ise the Ewood estate. Just think of the history timelines and what’s been done to Blues Bar for starters.

One poster (no, not him) certainly thought Gestede was doing an ‘excellent job’, presumably still does… -

It’s NYE 2075… ‘do we think Balaji Rao III will sell? Would a new owner look for building us a new ground or will we stay sharing the Anchor with Darwen?’ -

Mattyblue replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
And that’s with free coaches too. Obviously was always going to be the case for a Sky game at 12.30 on NYD especially as they filled the Darwen End for a cup tie only a couple of years ago, so no ‘new ground ticking’ to do for their fans. Of course the idiotic regime here made it Cat A pricing to coin it in as they will have expected them to fill it again ‘as they did last time’, as always they’ve just shown themselves to not understand fandom and what drives numbers (which is no surprise as they don’t have a foggiest about their own fanbase either). -
150th Anniversary kit/celebrations
Mattyblue replied to Proudtobeblue&white's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Not once, can’t say I’ve ever remembered that before half way through the season. Though I suppose considering even the 150th shirt isn’t even the iconic blue and white, then it figures as this regime have absolutely no feel or interest for this grand old club and it’s heritage. -
150th Anniversary kit/celebrations
Mattyblue replied to Proudtobeblue&white's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
According to Glen not only was the 150th kit delayed to the 151st to not prevent gold kit sales, we have also been wearing the gold recently over the green to further try and push sales of it as they’ve been poor. Club run like a convenience store trying to get rid of soon to be out of date tat. -

150th Anniversary kit/celebrations
Mattyblue replied to Proudtobeblue&white's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
They banged on and on about the town of Blackburn throughout the AI generated promos and videos to the extent I thought we were celebrating the anniversary of the borough not the football club. So why not for the green shirt (as was supposedly based on the livery of the borough) put the coat of arms on it? At least something to make the shirts have something striking to them. -
150th Anniversary kit/celebrations
Mattyblue replied to Proudtobeblue&white's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
So the rumour from Glen that Suhail delayed the release as he wanted folk to buy the other three shirts first that weren’t selling particularly well isn’t far off the mark then. Maybe don’t release four shirts in a season then if you want them to cannibalise each other’s sales would be the obvious solution, not releasing an 150th shirt in the 151st year… -

Regardless of these other recently unearthed (and ambiguous) sources Parsons has alluded to, I’m telling you now if that random historical kits website didn’t show a white shirt first in the list of Rovers shirts we wouldn’t be wearing one on NYD. -

Valérien Ismaël: Blackburn Rovers Head Coach
Mattyblue replied to DE.'s topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Crap managers who get crap results get sacked, was ever thus. But that isn’t how this club operates. They have only sacked Coyle (and that was too late) in a decade. The clamour to sack him isn’t there as what’s the point in clamouring for something that ain’t going to happen.
