You've blamed every manager, every CEO, every MD and even the tea lady for the decline of the football club over the past 10yrs. You've told me on more than one occasion you believe Venkys will come good at some point and thats why you can't see through those Venky tinted spectacles, it has clouded you judgement for a decade and its set to do the same for the next decade to come. The only decent manager to get near the job and this: https://www.theleaguepaper.com/features/featured/8700/dunlavy-column-the-day-blackburn-rovers-ditched-warnock-for-coyle/ Warnock was typically forthright. “I spoke to one club,” he said. “But they didn’t know what they were doing.” Badly advised eh......bloody criminal i'd say.

How about the time we were in discussions with Real Madrid’s Raul and we ended up with David Goodwillie. Bad advice?

Couldn’t agree more, no Parkinson or Mahmood, nowhere near enough den.

Following in the footsteps of Shaw, Singh and Barry Chuckle LD. The owners are as thick as pig shit, fill yer boots, it’s been the same for 10yrs. Bad advice?

Nobody said that, have you started early tonight Simon? Just for the record, I’d take Wilder tomorrow. Quite right too. Any CEO worth his salt would look at every avenue to raise funds when the clubs haemorrhaging money at the rate we are. Its not difficult this stuff chaps.

Come on Lancashire🏏

I know…..🙄

Joe Root cementing his place as one of greatest batsman this country has ever seen, just phenomenal. Roooooot

They have form for not paying bills on time JH, Barclays took the overdraft of them years ago because they failed to pay and provide proof of funds. Henning Berg took them to the high court for not paying his contract up and I'm sure I could find more examples if I set my mind to it. This badly advised nonsense is quickly becoming laughable, not aimed at you JH.

I don't blame any CEO for looking at ways to raise funds at a club haemorrhaging money, no matter how unsavoury that may seem to many, me included. John Williams talked about selling the naming rights to Ewood, but that never happened. But lets face it, nobody sells fixed assets like training grounds unless the owners say so, the buck stops with them.

Try telling that to the Rovers in the community team who were all fired when we got relegated under king rat, cost cutting. Why have we no scouting network? Why have we just sacked the European scout? Why are the backroom team all leaving? Why can't we get staff to work in the club shop the Saturday after the new shirt is released? Why does Ewood look like a shit tip? Why did Steve Patrick leave? Why has the pitch been awful since the day Steve left? Why did the club doctors leave? Why has the club been massively downgraded over the past 10yrs? All cost cutting Mike, nothing to do with FFP and the list above goes on and on and on.....

He was also sacked after it became clear he was very much a 1 trick pony, the premiership worked him out and now Sheff Utd are bottom of the Championship, but they did make a profit last season for the first time in over a decade, Venkys would love that.

Did the same apply to Gary Bowyer and Paul Lambert? How about Henning Berg who also wanted players signed to contracts when he arrived and ended up in the high court because Venkys wouldn't pay his contract! As we all know, this refusal to sign players to contracts isn't anything new, its been going on for years, way before Mowbray came to the club?

With the smallest squad in Blackburn Rovers recent history Mike, ask yourself, does that ring true to you? I've personally read Mowbray asking for contract extensions for players in the Lancashire Telegraph on more than one occasion, desperate stuff, but its clear they're turned the tap off and players will walk as a result, what a business model eh..... Paul Lambert wanted to use some of the Rhodes money (9m) to bring in new recruits and sign 4/5 players to new contracts, all refused by Venkys, this isn't anything new, its been going on for years and he walked away. In the past 18 months we've sold around £20m worth of assets, depending on which newspaper you read and we can't sign players to contracts? Venkys out

No idea, but every Rovers fan knows we’ve struggled to keep clean sheets, we’ve all been crying out for quality defenders. Fingers crossed Wiz

Yes. This has been the pattern since they took over, nothing has changed. Remember all the players they refused to play because of win bonuses, goals scored bonuses, play more than 20 games and a wage increase? Its exactly the same now, but on a much smaller scale than in 2011.

How about every other manager over the past 10yrs? Same rules apply?

Come on John, when in the history of Blackburn Rovers have we ever worked on that model? Clubs in dire financial strife like we are need assets to sell, Armstrong on a decent contract would have brought in more money, Nyambe on any sort of contract the same. Venkys have stopped Mowbray and Waggot securing new deals with players, they did the same with Bowyer, this isn't anything new, they're as thick as a bar top. Venkys out.

Notts v Hampshire T20 tonight was a fantastic game, just brilliant. Somerset v Lancs tomorrow night, what a day of cricket we have in store.

Sorry Dmtp but that’s nonsense with the greatest of respect. Pay the players we want to keep decent contracts, it’s as simple as that, protect your assets, FFP doesn’t come into it really. Venkys have turned off the tap, they’ve refused to pay extensions to contracts many times over the past 10yrs, this isn’t anything new.

Not allowing us to extend current players contracts is just another example of how those idiots in Pune simply don’t get it. It’s been happening since day 1, it can’t just be bad advice…… Venkys out.

The biggest problem with the side for many years has been we can't keep a clean sheet. Despite the excellent start to the season, Mowbray is doing the right thing here, we are crying out for quality cover in the centre of defence and he's addressing that. If you don't concede goals you don't lose games, tried and tested.

I don’t think anyone saw this coming, India have dominated the first 2 tests and should be 2 up. Lets get 450/500 and make this 1-1.

The worst thing about the post is its now got 13 likes - No wonder the clubs ****** with such short sightedness. Anyway back to transfers, whats happening? Bad advice again?

I think he'll reveal that he was on the Aldi Champagne last night, that is the only reason I can think of for posting that utter garbage above.
