  1. Didn’t say he had, I was merely replying to Rev who said his reign was ‘just ok’, and I wasn’t going to let that go!
  2. BJ, why not. Pasha has achieved the square root of feck all. Oh and as for the snidey comment in the post one up, try growing up for Christ sake. But I’ll bite. Can you explain my ‘agenda’ against the owners please? Have a read of my post at the top of the page and let me know what my agenda is and what I hope to achieve from having said ‘agenda’?
  3. Well no, that is very unlikely to be the situation, as it sounds like he is being floated as the owner’s conduit in England, so a choice between himself or Pasha, not for him to take over as Chief Exec.
  4. Let me get this straight. So someone that has been going to Ewood since he was five years old, a sixth generation fanatic, that loves the club like family, that spends his days giving himself RSI by posting on an obscure Rovers forum, that spends thousands of pounds and travels hundreds of miles year in year out … doesn’t want us to actually succeed, in fact, he can’t BEAR the thought of it, indeed he’s TERRIFIED of it, because, err, well, he’d rather spite some family in Pune, India that aren’t even aware of his existence over the success and well being of his beloved Blackburn Rovers!? Nice try 😁
  5. End of the day there’s no point getting particularly vexed about it, it’s Venky World, they’ll do what ever the feck they want, regardless of if it’s a good, average or batshit crazy idea. But whoever their point man is, family or otherwise, I can’t see much changing whilst the club is still in cost cutting mode on the ground under the likes of powerless ‘execs’ like Waggott. Real executive power needs to be in place at Ewood Park, not Pune, as we are seeing once again what happens without it, as just like 2016, despite knowing for months of a probable managerial vacancy, we head into June with no manager for a July kick off. That’s six years and not a bloody thing has changed.
  6. We can all cherry pick the few mistakes of somebody whilst ignoring years of consistent good work. Appointed Ince, realised the mistake, had him replaced with a top manager in months, compare that to the last decade. ‘Nearly relegated’, yes Rev, because we had no money for a decade, yet we still always stayed up… until the family you still support fecked it up in months. You are in a minority of one if you think JW was no better than ok. (But then you always were on that score).
  7. Now you’re talking! The Rest is History Podcast with Tom Holland (not that one!) and Dominic Sandbrook is fantastic. Great knowledge, but they don’t take it all too seriously like many an American podcast. With events in Ukraine it has got me delving into the aftermath of the Second World War a lot at the moment. It is striking to see how many of the major issues we are having across the world currently goes back to the fallout from it… the advance of the USSR across Eastern Europe, the Chinese civil war and the escape of the losing Nationalists to Taiwan, the end of Empires, Israel/Palestine etc etc.
  8. It’s a daft question because neither are fit to be anywhere near the running of Blackburn Rovers, so I wouldn’t appoint either if I was somehow the owner of the club. ’Yeah, yeah, but if you HAD to? Blind or deaf?’ ’Leg or arm chopped off?’
  9. Hmm, pretty sure you said JW ‘did ok’ this very afternoon! Though if you don’t think having Balaji Junior potentially run the place is a positive, I’m glad to hear it! Apologies, must have read your post wrong.
  10. Imagine once of a day having standards so high that you thought John Williams merely ‘did ok’, to now being happy for some kid out of uni to run Blackburn Rovers… and still be in the mindset that this lot are a good thing for the club.
  11. Uncalled for? Give over. He’s been on the wind up for 12 months, he’s told us absolutely nowt, and he now spends most of his time saying how we are all ‘clueless’, yet won’t tell us a single thing to give us mushrooms a clue, and it’s long become tiresome. He either needs to put some meat on the bones or put a sock in it.
  12. Eh? That’s the exact opposite of my point. I don’t like our club and fanbase being besmirched. It was a great initiative all round and 99.9% of feedback was positive, apart from professional trolls. A real positive by and for the club. So try again!
  13. You still don’t rate JW after everything that has happened since. Amazing.
  14. A tiny minority of social media trolls, as to be expected. Look at the penalty missers at the Euros, also a tiny minority of knuckle draggers, it’s the modern social media world. The club has had massive positive publicity. Your posts are getting increasingly odd, 1864, you seem to enjoy being divisive and I’ve no idea what you are trying to achieve. Unfortunately you seem to be the very last person the club should be engaging with…
  15. Bit of positivity around Wigan, I imagine they won’t be a million miles from us either. Year upon year decline in sales for the flagship product of any football club, indeed hitting new lows in sales I wouldn’t have even believed possible a decade ago. At a club with any kind of accountability heads would roll, but this is modern day Blackburn Rovers after 12 years of going through the motions…
  16. I see, so you believe there should now be a hierarchy of loyalty even before the season has kicked off! Maybe STs should now have a ‘Purchased on’ stamp so you can have exclusive perks on a sliding scale. And despite it being the exact same product whenever you buy it, if you can’t afford one until pay day and are waiting till the claim your seat deadline, like every year, you are, of course, less loyal. Don’t recall ever reading that in the Ts&Cs. Didn’t expect any different from said poster though, what a strange view of the world he has…
  17. Yes, of course. But where this is different is they are prioritising ST holders for a season that hasn’t even kicked off. We are not even at the claim your seat deadline yet, so as some of your most loyal fans won’t be renewing until the end of the month, they are excluded.
  18. …so that’s TWO down. Get those planning applications burned before any other chancer sees them.
  19. Reminds me of when Dave Whelan appointed his grandson as Chairman after a less than stellar stint running the chippy at the ground…
  20. Wonder how much more we make on hospitality than Accy game by game? You know that former Northern Premier club that just about hits 2k home fans. A far smaller gap than a few years back, I would imagine…
  21. How does going to a ‘top university’ prepare you for the absolute batshit world of the Championship? How do we know he ‘will have an idea about football’?
  22. Imagine saying that before this shower turned up…
  23. Sales going well then…
